In other threads I have seen shockingly racist post regarding our president. One thread coined the term "negro news" to post news about the president. Another measured him on scale of his blackness. Then there is the whole birther thing--in which, it seems-- the racists are banging the drum even more loudly...

Is this a sign of their frustration at the realization the Obama is likely to server a second term?

It's disgusting behavior that I think all reasonable people on both sides of the political spectrum can come together and condemn.

Is a greater percentage of whites refusing to vote for Obama due to his race, than the percentage of blacks who refused to vote for, say, George W. Bush due to his race?

BTW, I refuse to vote for Obama, and I'm a white guy. Do the leftists blame race, in my case?

Just posting this thread shows your own bias.

THere is certainly racism in the world. But to say everyone that believes Obama is lying about his place of birth is racist. I think is a bit overboard.

I don't personally care what color the idiot is. He is a puppet that is letting the world powers tell him what to do, and it's destroying freedom in this country.

Bush did the same thing. He is white. Bush is a warmongering false christian, that loves his daddy's idea of a New World Order. In which everyone is under the thumb of Capitalist elites. Is that racist?

No. It's a dislike of accumulated, concentrated power, in the hands of greedy people.

Obama is no different than Bush.

They both are American sellouts.

I think it's more a sign that you are not truly discerning what is happening.

At some point, I hope you realize that people just don't like WHAT Obama is doing (not WHO he is).

It hardly surprising. The media made his race the issue to vote him in. Obviously some of that will come back to bite him in the arse once people realize an incompetent non-white president is no different to an incompetent white one.

Yes, I am biased towards people who aren't racists-- latent or otherwise. What's your bias?
