But WHY are you stating them, just so you know; everyone already knows the answer.

Well, in today's politically correct driven politics, people like yourself have find a way to speak your biases without repercussions. Remember the signs that had even the McCain crowd get all mad? I'm talking about the one that said "if Obama is elected will the white house still be white?" or something like that. Well, technically speaking they were just asking a simple question. Right?

Or how about this. Every time a white lady on CNN says "the n word", she's actually making the rest of us say that word in our heads. That's what you're doing. You're stating a "fact" hoping racists like yourself would take the next step in deducing from that "fact" in their heads.

What's bothers me even more is whenever one of you racists beat around a bush like you're doing, no other conservative ever come forward and denounce you. It's approval with silence. It tells me you are saying something they agree with. They just don't dare to say it out loud because they know it's not politically correct to say it out loud.

Edit.

By the way, a lot of christians are pedophiles. Just stating a fact that is part of the public domain. Remember, many christians are pedophiles, murderers, and rapists. Furthermore, many christians committed genocide in the 20th century. Just stating a fact that is part of the public domain.

Oh yeah, and another fact is there were many conservatives that supported Jim Crow right to the end. Just stating a fact. I personally know of many conservatives who fantasize about locking away gay people. Just stating another fact.

See how that works? Do we honestly believe I was merely stating facts or perhaps I was letting loose some of my biases?

All the guy wants is to hit a hole in one. Who cares what happens to the country. He must get the hole in one.

The nature of the Executive Orders
is more meaningful than the number.
The Obama likes to go "Extra-Constitutional."

That's some very impressive deflecting.

I stated facts, all part of the public domain. You chose to play the race card, and it would appear that you're playing that race card because you don't like the facts I presented.

Fact: Obama did indeed tell his friends in school that his father was a fierce warrior from a tribe full of fierce warriors in Kenya. If you read his book, you would know this is a fact. But just in case, here's a link to the New York Times: A Promise of Redemption - NYTimes.com

Fact: Obama's father was indeed an alcoholic adulterer serial inseminator. I trust you know what the meanings of all those words are, and if you do, you will realize that Obama's father was indeed just that.

Now, you many not like those facts, but not liking facts doesn't change the fact that they are indeed facts. In fact, those facts about Obama are an integral part of who he is today. Yes, I realize that perhaps you want to cling to a romantic notion that he came from a land of unicorns and rainbows, but he didn't. He came from a broken beginning, and never had a father figure in his life. And those two facts impacted who he is as a person. Remember, those are facts.

The fact remains that Ted Kennedy was an alcoholic murderer. Yes, he had a very well-chronicled drinking problem. And yes, he murdered someone. Again, facts.

The issue with you seems to be that you don't like seeing facts about people. But facts about people are certainly better than the media hiding/downplaying facts about people, right?

Why would someone denounce me if I am stating facts?

You've already made the assumption -- incorrectly, I might add -- that you're dealing with a conservative. You're not. You definitely aren't dealing with a liberal, either.

I could see if I was stating an opinion -- which is clearly DIFFERENT from stating a fact -- like "Obama is a loner".

But I didn't.

I stated two facts, and immediately, you chose to throw down the race card. What does that say about you?

He wants to get things done because he loves America, loves Jesus, and doesn't want the terrorists to win. If he had needed the Republican's consent for the raid Osama bin Laden would still be alive today

Oh, wait, that's right.......his "father" was an alcoholic adulterer serial inseminator. That's not really the same thing.
Since when does fierce warrior equal king? That's not really the same thing.

I agree. I think it was egregious that Bush restricted stem cell research and expanded the powers of the office of the Vice President and passed executive orders to support his faith-based initiatives. But somehow I missed the Republican outrage over such "Extra-Constitutional" EOs.
