People who still think that way are over the hill, uneducated or backwards - usually some combination of all 3.

America is about continued greatness looking into the future.
So who said anything to Barack at the dinner table when he called his grandmother a "typical white person"? Bueler??? Bueler????

Show me what she says in Marxist. When someone doesn't agree with you then you say they have fallen asleep. You need to wake up.

Later today someone will call her a Socialist and tomorrow something different.

Expressions of racism and discrimination are wrong. Confronting such sentiments and beliefs, when they exist, is best accomplished within the family structure where such comments are made and promoted. It's also the Christian way to handle the situation. Let's not start jumping forward suggesting other things will happen ... when that's not even part of the discussion.

They WILL happen. That's how Totalitarians roll. Once one thing is accepted, they go for it all. Remember, this is the same administration that wanted people to squeal on people about telling the truth about the ACA and even had a tip hotline website setup to do so.

Oh, Please. Give it up. Do you support family values? Christian teachings? Doing the right thing? Why do you seem so upset that a suggestion was made to discuss discrimination, racism, prejudice at home with family ... if/when it exists?

I hate the thought police and social engineering as much as the next guy, but damn if some tin hats aren't showing today.

Relax guys, no one is being summarily hanged to death for using the N- word. Feel free to keep using it in front of your kids.

Much like Round #1 of this: Pajama Boys should go home during the holidays and convince their familes what a good idea ObamaCare is. (I'll be that was simply intended to bring joyful and stimulating conversation to the meal.)

Funny how 2 First Ladies can tell you what to do and one is celebrated while the other is a screaming facist communist pig...

and then people have the nerve to get mad when people bring up racism?
