True, and the real racism gets lost in all this 'everything is racist' attitudes because people begin to believe that everything is some kind of ploy. I get frustrated and angry that so many who really suffer racist actions against them have their experiences relegated to a 'oh just another one of those'

[OldFriend]

LOL.....I saw the ad and thought Ford was lighter skinned than the actress!

[joesbucks]

McAlister said she was surprised people took the ad so seriously.

What a stupid comment. If it wasn't to be taken seriously, then why was it run. That election was too close not to run ads that would cause concern among some core group of people.

Thanks. Said tongue in cheek - a more serious response is at post 3.

Deomcratic projection:

According to Sigmund Freud, projection is a psychological defense mechanism whereby one "projects" one's own undesirable thoughts, motivations, desires, feelings — basically parts of oneself — onto someone else (usually another person, but psychological projection onto animals, inanimate objects — even religious constructs — also occurs). The principle of projection is well-established in psychology.

I never understood the uproar.

I see an ad like that and I think "At least he's straight, and will keep his hands off the Pages"

Just look at her, she wants me.

To me, the ad was just plain offensive and out of line, period, race notwithstanding.

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

[Sister_T]

LOL!

Hey babe. Call me.

Racism is far more prevalent than most whites believe... and far less prevalent than most blacks believe.

As a black woman who is currently attending a racially diverse college, I have to say I TOTALLY AGREE WITH THAT STATMENT! I have a girlfriend who blames racism if it rains on her new hairdo. I hate to say it, but the truth is most black people are racially sensitive. It is hard not to be.

[brwnsuga]

that 80 year old pervert is what was offensive to voters

Hefner is creepy, isn't he. If I was that close to death I'd be in church every day, not running with some girls I pay to be my "girlfriends"

[driftdiver]

"Pretty lady. Harold will probably give her a call, for real!"

Whats her number again?

[brwnsuga]

and a very light skinned Mexican to boot...

And Ford looks like he is awash in white blood with his light skin and eyes. I don't see a problem with the ad other than him hanging out with scandalous people, their race is not of importance

[meg88]

Didn't Harold lie about being at the Playboy party to begin with?

[brwnsuga]

I heard him say he wasn't there, then I heard him say something like "I'm a single man, so I like pretty girls". I say, if you are going to try to come across as a conservative Christian candidate, you may want to stay out of a Playboy party. You might catch something that only Jesus can cure.

Sorry Freepers, but I don't know too many single guys who would turn down an invite to a Playboy Superbowl party. Who really cares, especially at this point? At least it appears he's a red-blooded heterosexual male and not some boy-loving closet case. I'd take Ford over my two Dem-wit Senators any day.
