I think some folks need to go to dictionary.com and look up the meaning of the word “racist”. I bet you’d agree with me that the word is misused and overused quite a bit.

Oh, I understand racism very well and do not need your lecture. Next you will be explaining patriotism to me. Some words do not need further explanation.

No, I don’t think you do understand what it is. First off, I don’t appreciate you twisting my argument. I didn’t say black folks don’t want to watch a white man on TV. What I said was that black people are going to vote for Obama in huge numbers (and ALL polling data backs that up), and so aren’t interested in watching McCain on TV. It’s the same reason that die-hard Democrats generally don’t watch the Republican convention in as high a numbers as Republicans.

Secondly, if you’ve ever listened to the Neil Boortz show you’ll now that “racist” and “racism” are two of the most misused words in the English language. He makes this point all the time when people call in and misapply the word to some situation or person.
