Say anything that isn’t a complement about Obama and it will painted as Racist by his people. He must grow a thicker skin. Its getting a bit silly. Charges of racism grow stale when used too much.

So I guess I'm a racist for pointing out that he's ugly too ... in a big eared, "what, me worry?" Alfred E. Newman sort of way.

Who are the true racists?

How many people are voting for Hussein because he's black?

How many would be supporting him with this messianic cult following if he were white?

I'm not, not voting for him because he's black but because he's a dyed-in-the-wool communist.

But guess what. If people don't want to vote for him because he's black and their are racist bigots (like Whoopi Goldberg who railed against the “white man in the White House,” which is, I suppose, the PC and acceptable bigotry), they have that right. For a while. Until the commie gets in and pushes even more radically, anti-civil-liberties legislation than his predecessors in the Democrat party have pushed.

Don’t forget that our troops are racists because they called skinny Somalis, “Skinnys” back during the Clinton Occupation.

We cant call him a Canadian, and now cant call him Skinny. I guess we will just have to come up with a different code word....

How about a monkey.. No, to obvious.. Heck maybe we could just call him “them people”.

I sure would like to know how I'm gonna 'splain that to our blue-eyed, blonde 10yo daughter? Heck, how am gonna 'splain that to my husband who thought he married a white woman?

Obama, and his wife who would be First Lady were he elected, are racists. I will never, ever vote for a racist.

He is also an anti-semite and she most likely is as well, given the “church” that she chose. I will never, ever vote for an anti-semite.

Then there is the Marxist, pro-terrorist thing. I mean this is just now working out for me. NoBama.

“Fully 66 percent of all citizens who’ve reached voting age are overweight, and 32 percent are obese.”

This is exaggerated.

Good thing you didn't say “just call a spade a spade”.

How about his followers simply responding to reasoned criticisms of his many and varied policy positions? How about that for a change, rather than immediately assuming that any criticism is code for something else?

Racialism is a Democrat thing. We’re Repubs; we’re interested in figuring out which one of his many positions is his real position. We want to know if he’s changed his position on drilling again, or again, and which way it all fell out in the end. We want to know, since we’ve won in Iraq, if he’s going to apologize and give it all back. Maybe he can invite Saddam’s daughters to come home from Syria and present to them the keys to some of his palaces with some kind of compensation.

We want to know if he’s really going to invade Pakistan, or withdraw from Afghanistan, or something in between. We want to know if he even knows what he’s going to do.

We want to know how he managed to get this far in life with absolutely nothing to put on his resume. We want to know who is funding his campaign, and why our enemies think he’s the better bargain come election season.

I never once mentioned the fact that he’s not particularly patriotic. Thats sort of a non-issue, considering who his backers are.

You shouldn't even have to ask.

"I would counter that any failure on Chozick's part to recognize such is just a wee bit clueless."

Just like not recognizing that 'black hole' could be racist is, well, just a wee bit clueless?

It doesn't matter what you intended when you say anything whatsoever - what matters is what any passerby over hearing you thinks you meant.

Don't tell a female employee she 'looks nice today' - you'll get booted for sexual harassment even if all you really meant was she 'looked nice that day.'

PC is ruining this country just as surely as it has ruined the once "Great" Britain.

I see a lot of tendency here to do as I used to when I discovered that nothing I did would please someone - I’d intentionally antagonize them.

We all know what the charge of “racism” is intended to do - it’s supposed to be a shield from criticism.

“What’s the definition of a racist? A white guy winning an argument with a minority.”
