I agree in the sense that it’s not 100% clear to me that this remark was intentionally derogatory on Obama’s part. I think common courtesy demands we give him the benefit of the doubt.

Democrats? Common courtesy? These thugs steal elections. Obama is a creepy, nasty, slimy street thug who is perfectly capable of calling Sarah Palin a pig. He associates with dangerous people. This fear of making a scene that the quoted sentences express is one of the things that holds us back. He must be utterly defeated in any political way possible.

I ain't afraid of making a scene. For the truth. For falsehood or for a trumped-up charge, that's a different story.

And I really can't agree that he must be defeated in "any political way possible" if that includes accusing him of things he didn't intend. I'm sorry. Politics is one thing, but I got an immortal soul to worry about. Slander and detraction are objectively evil no matter who does it, and the politics of the thing doesn't affect that in the least.

Like I said, if it can be demonstrated that he did this deliberately, then cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war. Until then, I'm keeping my powder dry on this one.
