and green...and red...
And pro partial birth abortion!
Yes. He is green...and red..
And a whole bunch of other undesireable positions and characteristics.
I didn’t used to be able to stand Juan Williams and his sneery look but lately he has been on the right side of a whole bunch of stuff. I kinda like him.
I’m all for a black man running for President. But Obama is a Marxist loon, and has so many flaws as a candidate I couldn’t possibly vote for him.
It’s not going away now that Obama has made it the central issue.
It is if you're a Democrat.
If you believe race and ethnicity to be an all-important determining factor in a person's destiny, face it, you're probably a Dem.
If you aren't particularly interested in ethnic issues, you don't define yourself by your ethnicity, if you are more interested in the content of a man's argument, if you're much more interested in knowing and discussing someone's policy positions, if you think his moral character is more important than the spelling of his last name, you are probably a Repub.
Or if you're still a Dem, you are headed our way politically. May as well admit it and come on over.
Forget race. Forget ethnicity. Just forget it. Focus on what matters; character, philosophy, experience.
And who cares someone is nice to the pollster and tells them what they want to hear (I'm not)? They have your name and phone number; they know where you live.
“The race issue is clearly not going away. And the key reason — to be blunt — is because there is no telling how many white voters are lying to pollsters when they say they plan to vote for a black man to be president. Still, it is possible to look elsewhere in the polling numbers to see where white voters acknowledge their racial feelings and get a truer measure of racism.”
To get a true gauge of the racism prevalent in this campaign black voters should be polled - 98% will vote for the black candidate. It is not just because they are democrats - in the democratic primary they voted black only. Why is it only the white voter that gets accused of racism? Clinton and Edwards didn’t stand a prayer to get black votes. Whites on the other hand voted heavily and will vote heavily for Obama.
What was the percentage of non-white voters who said the same thing?
This is 'Weekday Juan' as oppopsed to 'Sunday Juan'. Someday I'd like to see a debate between them.
Obama Camp Says McCain Running Racist Campaign
An Obama spokesman asserted that “McCain is running a racist campaign.”
“Not once has Senator McCain referred to Senator Obama as ‘Black’ or ‘African-American,’” complained Harvey Sain, deputy media specialist for the Obama campaign. “While everyone else is celebrating Obama’s blackness, McCain continues to pointedly ignore this salient fact.”
“If it were left up to McCain, voters would be unaware that Senator Obama is not white,” Sain said. “What other motive could there be but racism?”
Sain predicted that “this smear tactic will backfire.” “Senator Obama got a big bounce in Europe,” Said claimed. “According to the polls he’s beating McCain by at least 30 points in France, Italy, Germany. The electoral votes of these states are all safely on the Obama side of the ledger.”

That's exactly why they can't forget race.
Perhaps a little foreshadowing of the old media coverage we will see IF obama loses?
“Why is it only the white voter that gets accused of racism?”
No matter what a black person says or does, they can only be *racist* if they attack Democrats.
In the MSM lexicon, racist means anything that is against the Democrats.
