Honor? Honor?

Where the hell was Ollie North at the rally?

He's the only honorable man in this country.

Remove the snark & hate and you'll get an answer free of snark & hate.

Pinky swear.

Now, what question can I answer for you about the rally?

Isn't obama supposed to be a post-racial president? Why does the Left resort to bringing race into every single issue? Seems they haven't learned the lessons of MLK, in fact they smear his name with their behavior, OR obama, their savior.

Sometimes, one has to stand up to hatred, racism and viciousness.
Yes indeed. Just like two other right wing icons Limbaugh and Coulter.

So when they come in blathering about racism and bigotry (their usual arguments), what do you expect.

Of course, you've failed to recognize the hatred and viciousness of those you align with politically.
YOU have NEVER provided ANY proof of anything and you expect it of others ??? AND you ignore it when it IS provided. I feel NO obligation to you to provide anything.
OOpps, here's the one ya missed

Obviously, there were blacks, browns and other colors at the rally and obviously people of color took a prominent role on stage as well.

No, you posted, "Since you like to count skins"


As if "skins" was a noun or the NAME of something...

You didn't post "counting by color of skin"


YOU posted "Since you like to count skins"

WHAT did you refer to when you used the word "skins"?


And, again, blacks at the rally would be so unusual as to elicit special interest...glad you agree.

You are NOT standing up to anyone , you're just venting.

Should be fairly easy to understand, since you posted my response right in here.

Oh, I always provide proof.

The Left has a nasty habit of counting the color of people's skin, particularly at conservative events. They just love to race bait, but it no longer works, people are tired of the Left playing the race card on every issue, like this harmless rally that raised $5 million for the kids of dead soldiers.

You would think if the Left truly cared about the troops, they would celebrate that achievement.

Abstract concepts like irony and hypocrisy aren't familiar terms in their mental vocabulary. So they can comfortably and without batting a single eyelash claim to be for smaller government and make one authoritarian proposal after another at the same time.

THEY don't want to talk about the Sharpton rally that was organized to protest the Beck rally long after Beck picked his day. We just have to know that diversity is only for right leaners and that left leaners don't have to deal with it.
