actually, it's not all that far removed from the 'take back America' phrase supposedly being 'racist' that certain posters here blither about on a near weekly basis, despite that fact that obama himself was a guest speaker at that 'take back America' conference in DC in 2006

Obviously you follow Republican party lines and that's the issue I have with you. You don't respect women, you just want to control them.

As a woman, I have to say your thought process on this is probably the most assinine thing I have read in months. No republican is trying to take away my rights, they are not controlling me at all, maybe you need to put down the red Kool-aid and educate yourself on things.

This phrase has been used for years, recently liberals and Democrats cried about "taking America back" when that white monkey G. W. Bush was in office. Oops, did I just make a racist statement?

Please note, that this isn't meant to provoke a liberal/conservative argument, I just want to know how the phrase is supposed to be interpreted.

Liberals interpret everything as racist, no matter how non-racist it is.

There's a word for it-
pareidolia (noun) - the imagined perception of a pattern or meaning where it does not actually exist.

Hope this helps.
