I’m sixty. I remember free speech in this country.It’s
depressing that we’ve lost it.

I am two and one half months away from 64 and I remember so much that we have lost that it makes all the personal computers and cell phones and all that stuff seem totally trivial. I would gladly give up all the new technology if we could regain what we have thrown away.

“Or maybe they're the racists because they won't vote for a white woman.”

Actually, Hillary had about 90% black support up until just 4 months ago. If Obama hadn't been black, she would still enjoy that support. But it is very true that there is a strong misogyny ingrained in black culture, from general attitudes of black men towards black women, in their music, in their movies, in every aspect of their lives. This is why black women take special pride in being “strong” black women - it's not easy to accomplish in some black communities.

“So if 90% of blacks vote for Obama, it’s not race-based, but if 70% of whites don’t vote for him, it’s racist?”

Oh, if you’re really wanting to stir the pot....

This is but further proof that black people hate women... ;)

You can take these little skirmishes and go all over the place with them.
