No. Questioning someone's loyalty does not equal racism. Questioning someone's loyalty to the US based on their race = racism. There's a difference.
This guy said that this woman influenced her husband to send jobs to China based on nothing other than her being Asian.
That's a heck of a lot different than taking someone who says Obama shouldn't go on an apology tour and labelling them a racist.
So questioning Obama's citizenship/loyalty because his father is from Africa is not racist, but questioning this woman's loyalty because she's Asian is racist???
Nope. Why would I need one? Spike Lee is one person. He has opinions. They belong to him.
And I still say that the Progress Kentucky tweet was an idiot who thought he stumbled on a terrific strategy. McConnell's supporters are conservatives (so he thinks they are all against interracial marriage--what an idiot!), and he sends out a tweet that is supposed to make the conservatives think, hey, this guy McConnell must be more liberal than we though, he's married to someone from a different race. Stupid. And it came back and bit him. The way these things do.
You let Spike Lee off the hook that easily? Seriously, if a Republican celeb, say Bo Derek. had foamed against interracial marriage like that, would you give her the same pass?

Seriously. Yes.
When that beauty pageant contestant was raked over the coals for her comments on sexuality, I pointed out exactly the same thing. Her opinion. I might disagree with it, but she's entitled to her opinions. And Spike Lee is entitled to his.
And again, I stand by my opinion of the Progress Kentucky twit. What a twit!

Of course not.
No liberal would give a republican a pass on something like this.
Only they are allowed to be racist. That's why they accuse everyone else of being racist/bigots/homphobes and all this other nonsense.
It's like that old saying "takes one to know one".
I remember the things libs said about Clarence Thomas and his wife too. She's white.
Liberals talk about racial diversity and stuff but they don't mean it.
If a white conservative couple moves to the suburbs so the kids don't have to go black scools they will be honest and tell you why.
The liberal couple will make up some bs about wanting Johnny to have a backyard and sandbox to play in. Even though they moved so Johnny doesn't have to associate with black kids. Then they accuse everyone else of racism and expect people to believe them. lols.
So questioning Obama's citizenship/loyalty because his father is from Africa is not racist, but questioning this woman's loyalty because she's Asian is racist???
First, there is no questioning Obama's "citizenship\loyalty". Those are two different things. The post I responded to was specifically about loyalty. Not citizenship.
Second, I never saw anybody question either one "because his father is from Africa". But even so, that would not be racist, no. That would be because his father is from a different country. Notice how you didn't say "questioning this woman's loyalty because her father is from China".
What you're doing is called changing the goalposts. First it was about questioning loyalty based on race. Now it's about questioning citizenship, and based on family connections to another country.
