If I dont vote for a Democrat I am a racist? .................... Only if he is black? If he was a Republican and black, would it be a race issue for her? Of course not, so why apply it to a Democrat? (Rhet.)

I don’t doubt for a minute that this woman got a lot of racist mail. There are a lot of boorish, stupid people in this World.
Why do people have to exaggerate the racial aspects of this campaign? There are serious differences between the two candidates.

Typical race-card-wielding lib take on things - using examples of either total agreement and compliance or abject hatred and enmity. There is a vast, color-apathetic middle ground out there where folks want nothing to do with “The One”. I don’t care if he’s a black democrat, or a white democrat, or a green democrat or a red democrat - its all the same to me - he’s a damn liberal-democrat and he’s not getting my vote. That’s not the basis for a race war, its simply the basis for a good old-fashioned American election. In the great marketplace of ideas and approaches, Barak has been weighed in the balance and found wanting. If Fatimah considers that war-mongering, then perhaps a switch to decaf is in order.
That’s just what I mean. And it’d be worse today, what with blacks being spoiled rotten by the welfare gimme-gimme and greivance industries.
The pollsters are finding that they are being punked in the Midwest, and not the South.
I love how she picked out a few lines from the hundreds of comments that were left for her. She even misquoted herself and Drudge. She’s irrelevant and it’s sad she makes more money than I do.
In all of my years coming up through public schools, the lion’s share of racism I saw was from the black kids towards the white kids, not the other way around. Most of the white kids were scared to say anything to offend the black kids, and the black kids knew it. They took full advantage, throwing words like honkey and cracker around like confetti and not thinking twice about starting fights for any provocation, real or imaginary.
Racism is not just the fault of ‘whitey’, in spite of what the liberal dopes in the media tell us.
This is why the "Bubba" comments are being magnified by the press, yet no mention of the "Blacklikeme" counterparts.
According to my observations, the counterparts outnumber the bubba's by a substantial number.
This is the problem with identity politics. You dont vote for Obama? Youre a racist. You dont vote for Hillary? Youre a sexist. You dont vote for McCain? Youre an Ageist.
Of course, politicos and their advisors know full well that people vote for (or indeed against) candidates for all manner of reasons...some good, some bad, some bizarre. Race will play a part, no doubt about it, but in the final analysis, Obama will lose because there are very large albatrosses around his neck, like inexperience, being a useless speaker without a script, being married to someone who isnt proud of America, being wrong on most policies, and so on , and on and on.
Oh geesh, I’m not so sure either this article is properly labeling everything, NOR sticking to the point or any facts.
‘Michael Babich from Wichita, Kan., accused me of “calling for rampant crime and a plague of locusts.”’
What has this to do with being racist?
‘From John Hassler: “I’d rather have an all out war than have [Obama] for president.”’
Is this racist? Or just partyist? (I.e., I’ll be damned if we have another damnDem in the WH.)
‘Roland hated my column: “I don’t like threats, so I will for sure, vote for John McCain.”’
So because he saw your column as a threat, Roland is racist?
‘Jim McDowell was less polite: “I just realized after I saw your last name you’re a damn rag head. You stupid S.O.B.’s want to take us back to the seventh century.”’
Not nice, but the same concern hit me with that name. (And the admission that your family “has several religions”.) Sorry, being “religionist” isn’t “racist”. And it’s reality to be damned worried about any Moslem. I mean, you pick on occasional white guys doing mean things, but not a bunch of Moslems killing 3000 within 1 hour? Hello? Maybe you’re not Moslem, but your name sure smacks of it.
“Do these quotes shock you? Is the vitriol not far from the kind of hatred that led to lynching?”
Again, half those quotes don’t bespeak “racist” to me. Hard-edged perhaps, but that’s all.
“Flip through right-wing talk radio, and you can hear this type of intolerance daily.”
Oh total BS! But typical.
‘I wonder about people like Larry Coltslinger, who said: “Our unemployment rate is as good, or better than it was after all eight years of Bill Clinton.”’
It’s true! So what? What are you wondering?
HA tell it to the liquor store, window smashing, tv stealing mob that will be running the streets when BARAAAACK loses.
btt
Be very careful, you are lumping all Spanish speaking people into one category. There are a lot of Hispanics who come to America legally, with the intention of assimilating into society. They have no desire to recreate the third world s***-holes they came from. Those are the people we want on our side. Alienating them with rhetoric helps not one iota.
I saw some folks in Chicago wearing T-shirts that had he words: THE NEW HOMELAND SECURITY — THE BLACK PANTHERS. I wouldn’t be shocked if Ms. Ali owns one of those shirts.
She lives in a city that sees 400+ murders a year, virtually all of them black-on-black.
For her, the thought of evil, scheming white racists is comforting; she embraces this fantasy like a warm puppy.
Doesn't help when one candidate makes it a part of his campaign.
