Lets go.. I'm sure you can spend all day pulling news stories about him loosing his temper.. the question was, find one where he shows he's a racists. You yourself started this thread which reminded people that he is a war hero, as of yet, you havent proved that he is a racists.

John McCain's racist remark very troubling (http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/opinion/hongop.shtml - broken link)
How the POW's Fought Back [John McCain, US News & World Report, 5/14/73-- Fulbright, etc.]

After reading this account, I think McCain has earned the right to call those who imprisoned him any name he wants.

Obama has had no personal experience in his life such as this, and if his mentor is a racist preacher, than that is his choice.

The story you started out with, or the other two stories you posted have done nothing to prove that he's a racist, misogynestic, or any of them innacurate.

All its done is proven that your an individual who cant post factual information.

Once again your reading comprehension is very selective. Reread the posts, preferably several times, before you respond to people. There is no doubt that you intentionally distort and/or ignore what others say - making a discussion with you impossible.

So the point isn't that he's a racist, he's just uttering racist things. That makes no sense.

You come back with this post, which supposibly proved he's a racist.

Your the one who started this thread by pointing out that McCain was a racists, and then you postings show
1) He is a war hero
2) He has a sense of humor
3) He has a short temper

NOT one posting here has even brought up racial issues, something that YOU accused him of.

I'll give you an example of why it is important that the POTUS has control over his own mouth.

That's not a racist comment. YOU started this thread about McCain's use of the word "****". Now, is that a racist comment or not? Given his POW status, I'm betting many voters will give him a pass even if he said it yesterday. So where is the really racist stuff?

pghquest and I are asking the same questions.

Once again, your reading comprehension is selective. This is my last response to you as you intentionally do not participate in legitimate conversation.

I said I don't think John McCain is a racist. Get over that one little point you have made up and move on to a real discussion - not distortion, or misrepresentation, or outright lies.
