There is dumb and there is dumb. I consider racism to be a disgusting form of mental cowardice, where you paint an entire race or nationality as one way or another. Facts do not sway racists and they simply label people with a large brush stroke.
Thus, the irony is incredibly deep with Yahoo's frontpage story today, in which it declares Americans "secretly racist" based on their... search engine entries. Specifically, Yahoo contests that Americans are particularly racist toward President Obama.
The fact that Mr. Obama was elected in 2008 does not even truly enter into the discussion; nope, we are racists all, apparently including those who voted for him. Yahoo does try to explain away some of their ridiculous findings, but their headline gets straight to what they are talking about: "Are Americans secretly racist? Yes:"
...Doing everything they possibly can for the administration, Yahoo even goes as far as saying that the 41% of the vote Keith Judd received in the West Virginia primary against Obama was entirely from racism. Nowhere in the article is it even mentioned that he is a democrat.

yukhoo “news” is Obummer propaganda/
Looks like the new talking points are out. Criticism of Obama is reaching excessive levels and too much of it is coming from the left.
The race card is all they have. They think if they scream loud enough, it might work.
I’m against his white commie mommie and her parents. It’s their faults. Zer0 is just a tool.
UNMITIGATED BULLSHIT. He is unpopular because he is INCOMPETENT. Nothing more.
And a dull one at that.
His incompetence is because Americans are “secretly racist.”/sarc.
I judge the man on the content of his character, not the color of his skin.
I’m racist against Socialist.
I am racist against liberals. Hey everything is a race these days, so why not?
Just calling a spade a spade.
Response: OK. Now what?
Apparently not racist enough as to put a white hating, Black liberation theology believer in the WH

Before Obama was elected I didn’t have a racist bone in my body....and I still don’t.....but my attitude toward some blacks has changed
God is not a respecter of color and neither I am I....
I can tell you now I often find myself just a little sick of black Americans thinking because we have a black president they think they can get away with anything....because of their skin color....
If that makes me a racist... So be it....I don’t care anymore...
Was not a racist til obammy came along
Now?
Call it what you might
Denial of reality at it’s best.
He not only knows how to swim, but he body surfs in the ocean. Wears saddle shoes with shorts at the golf course. I saw pictures of him skiing Aspen. Even his dog is a 'white' dog. Can't get a whole lot whiter than that.
He's as white as a styrofoam cup of white rice next to a glass of milk and a mayonnaise sandwich on Wonder bread with the crusts cut off sitting on a paper plate outside in a snowstorm.
Truth is, I'd vote against Obama just to get rid of Attorney General Eric Holder -- never mind the teetering pile of other garbage that Obama has inflicted upon the USA. That alone is enough reason for me. Racist, schmacist.
Yep, I’m now a racist, too. I didn’t used to be, but since obama soiled the White House, I’ve become one, thanks to him.
