Nobody has ever said that there are no racists. Some don't try and make excuses for them though.

There are things that are racist, then there are things that arent. We arent talking about the obvious racism by a few people. We are talking about calling Obama "cool" or even just opposing him is considered racist.

And if you want, I can post some pretty despicable things said/depicting Bush or Palin or other non-liberals if you want. But I really dont think I need to go there, because we both know its true.

The desperation of the left continues to get lower and lower. You're so damn scared that he may not get re-elected that you sink even lower with your nonsense. I guess calling Obama a failure, radical, narcissist, arrogant is now racist too?

You liberals better be damn thankful that you have the media in your back pocket. If the media did its job, Obama wouldnt have a chance and you know it. Oops, I guess me wishing the media did its job and stopped covering for this guy is racist....

1. Maybe you have finally got around to looking at those images of Tea Party protesters coming to rallies with signs portraying the President as an African witch doctor ?



Or maybe somebody informed you of the racist e-mails lately, like those portraying the white house lawn covered in watermelons



2. Or white people likening Michelle Obama to an ape ?

3. Or white people picturing the President as a pair of “spook eyes” against a black background ?

4. Or the Tea Party candidate sent e-mails picturing the President dressed as a pimp and featuring a group of African tribesman performing a traditional dance ?

Tea Party NY Gov Candidate’s E-Mails Exposed: Racism, Porn, Bestiality | TPMMuckraker

5. Or maybe you heard of them guys FreeRepublic.com who called the President’s daughter, Malia, “typical ghetto trash,” and a “whore” whose mother likes to entertain her by “making monkey sounds ?”

Malia Obama called 'ghetto street trash' on Free Republic thread

But no one is racist here. Yeah ?

Debating with guys like you is a bit like fighting Zombies, no mater how many you smack down, they still keep coming.
While there are absolutely people that don't like obama out of racism....you do realize that claims of racism were first raised in the democratic primaries against Hillary Clinton supporters?

Those were the same primaries where Obama got something like 90% of the black vote in states like MS where black voters indicated that race played heavily in the decision.

So yeah, there are racists out there on both sides of the fence....but to moderate swing voters it's a tired tired argument.

I'm supposed to vote for Obama because some people have said rude racist things about him? Or am I supposed to vote against Obama because some of his supporters are unabashed racists?

Racism and Class warfare are the planks of the 2012 election. Just like anti-war, anti-guantanamo etc. were the 2008 planks.

Why don't we talk about Afghanistan and Guantanamo anymore?

And some refuse to admit that there are racists on both sides of the discussion.

If you have twitter, might be worth letting her know how stupid her comment is or how desperate it is.



Are they really going to try the race route again? I dont think trying to pressure people into feeling guilty is going to work time, nor using the race card. Especially if you are going to this idiotic extreme.

Then it should appeal to racists.

Take refuge in Romney's coolness.

They will try anything....but this time it will not work because a lot of black people are also against Obama for the same reasons as others....NO experience and bad actions!


Obama now has a track record and he can run but not hide!

I got a "cool" cartoon of Obama today in an e-mail but won't show it here since it was too true. It showed a small child that looked like Obama sitting at the capital building with the dome lying by him and his arm inside the building. I really think it was too near he truth to allow libs to get wound up calling me and whoever drew it racists.

Yeah they got enough to get em wound out like when folks disagree with Obama's actions they are called racists by the swooners. I guess they think that will work this time around. I don't think so.
