Who is labeling anyone who opposes Obama a racist? I have seen that claim made by those on the right many times, but other than comments directed at the birthers I have rarely seen those on the left suggest someone is a racist just because they happen to oppose Obama.
Some things that have never been done or said against another President (You lie!!) are being said and done to this one.
at the 9/12 rally. There were lots of racial signs against him.
Where have you been the past 8 years? "Bush Lied! People died!" was the mantra of the Left for years after we got into the Iraq War.
Got any pictures of "racial signs"? All I've seen are signs expressing dissatisfaction with what is going on in DC right now. I saw some signs that could be called "insulting" but none that were "racial".

If you look on those tea party threads, there are lots of pictures of racist signs. Obama called a "homie", all sorts of references to Kenya, a sign about Obama being a "Lying African". Now none of these slurs are overtly racist, the tea partiers were too clever for that. They are more veiled.

Give me a break
Who yelled out "YOU LIE!!" while President Bush had a joint session of congress?
Show me one clip, one, where one guy yelled that at him?
I'm not talking about booing, or hissing, thats normal. I'm talking about yelling at the President of these United States.

There are no doubt more criticisms that each president shares from their dogmatic opponents. I'm sure if Obama had the time, both he and Bush would kick back at the ranch and just laugh at the idiocy that was thrown at them.

I don't think everyone who criticizes President Obama is a racist. I've never called most of them one either.
However, there is undoubtedly some racism against him. Some things that have never been done or said against another President (You lie!!) are being said and done to this one.
People called President Bush a Nazi, because he was for spying on Americans without a warrent. He took away some personal freedoms, and invaded countries that didn't attack us.
They called him a idiot, because of a lot of the things he said. "Fool me once, shame on you... Fool me twice, won't get fooled again"
While President Obama isn't immune to this, I get the feeling if I was in the room with him and President Bush, I think I could tell who is the smarter guy.
The reason racism is charged against some of Obamas critics, is because of the people that have come out to rallies against him. Look at the posters people used at the 9/12 rally. There were lots of racial signs against him.
We impeached Clinton because he lied.
Obama does more spying on US citizens including mining data from social networks and other public forums, he had a tell-on-your-neighbor website and wants authority to shut down the Internet any time he pleases.
I've been to three Tea Party rallies and have never seen a racist protest sign. Could be you're looking a plants. You do realize the Democrats had fake protesters, fake doctors and fake kids at their townhall meetings don't you? The woman who was holding the Obama/Hitler poster at Frank's townhall was a Larouchie who was deemed to be a Republican by the MSM.

Yes, they are all crooked, but Bush did have no right to the presidency.
