You have NO idea how much I understand what you mean.

There of those of us who got beyond the racist thing many decades ago.

We’re waiting for the rest to catch up, I guess.

Or maybe rather than hit the abuse button, just deal with it? Discuss it like adults?

That depends on what's being said.

If they're talking about how the children of one candidate are being treated like props, but the children of another candidate are a loving family on the campaign trail together, then yes we can talk about it as adults.

If they're talking about the children in derogatory terms, or projecting the sins of the parents onto the children, or in any way creating inappropriate fodder for the Lefties to use against us, then no, I'll hit the abuse button.

Exactly. Only a coward targets the innocents and these children have done nothing.

Bingo, we have fallen for this whole hearted.

We have been singled out, brought up on their culture charges, and we happily self proclaimed ourselves guilty.

Rule #3: “Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules. You can kill them with this. They can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity.”

“Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”

One of the criteria for picking the target is the target’s vulnerability ... the other important point in the choosing of a target is that it must be a personification, not something general and abstract.”

“The enemy properly goaded and guided in his reaction will be your major strength.”

I wrote the media contact at Free Republic yesterday, kristinn@bellatlantic.net, questioning the nature of the posters and the site: Hello. I am an independent writer developing a book about the grassroots conservative movement online, of which your site, Free Republic, is included as a primary online gathering place for conservatives.

Independent writer developing a book and this is posted on the DailyKos? I went back a reread even the opening here. This is a very well crafted attack.

If I could show you the video that was just emailed to me...

Is there a link I can go to? Or could you email it to me?
Sounds very interesting.

Let’s talk about the Black Culture today, the one that is promoted by the media.

Let's talk about the anti-American anti-white sewage being spewed in black churches every Sunday as evidenced by the dear semi-missing Rev. Wright. Might as well be the Finsbury Park mosque. The Obamas were faithful attendees. They are racists and anti-American. They're intention is to promote their own people in an alliance with the left and anti-American Third World. I don't have to call them any goofy names. The evidence is in Zeros books. He's getting to play his smile at whitey act all over the world.

Do you really believe that Malia wore that shirt by accident?

The young children of Presidents on overseas missions do not dress "by accident".

Her parents probably "knew better" and put her in that shirt to reinforce BO's message of complete surrender.

The parents, in this sense, are child abusers for turning an 11 year old into a political message.

If the president wanted a low-profile for his children then why does he stick them in high-profile situations?

What the hell is happening? This is supposed to be a forum to exchange thoughts on politics and current events, not eat ourselves from the inside out.

I'll put aside your silly insults and accusations and get to the point........once again.

I am not talking about "playing nice" with the people responsible. I am talking about leaving the kids out of it because IT ACCOMPLISHES NOTHING.

btw, we didn't lose by being nice, we lost because our Republican representatives were weak. One can be well-behaved and classy and strong at the same time.

So go ahead and be a nasty guy behind your safe little keyboard and feel like it's doing something if you want to waste your time.

In the mean time, those of us who are too "nice" for you are going to be fighting the real battles and playing the real hardball while you sit at your keyboard and call children names.

Wow, WOW! THANK you for that link, Hoodat.

How applicable to today.........only in reverse!

Care to give some examples of that?

Let's just say that I "driving while black" really does happen and I've personally been surrounded by 5 police cars because there happened to be a black person in my car at the time (the black friend was the only person in the car taken aside and frisked). Further, it's difficult to interpret some of the examples in the original complaint letter as anything but racist but plenty of Freepers are ignoring or dismissing those complaints.

The best illustration of the problem I've ever seen was a nice car pulled over by the state police. Standing on the side of the road was a nicely dressed black couple and the police officer was inside the car searching it thoroughly. What one sees there will likely depend on one's race. Did the police officer have cause to search the car? I don't know for sure but I do know that white people tend to automatically assume the police officer has a legitimate reason for stopping the couple and searching their car while black people tend to assume it's a fishing expedition by the police officer to get something on an otherwise innocent black couple. And in making that assumption, each side has a bias that's inevitably wrong at least some of the time.

And telling me your non-white ethnicity is "Hispanic" is meaningless because "Hispanic" isn't a race.

Those kids don’t represent us and they didn’t ask for it.

When they're accompanying their father who is unfortunately the POTUS, is on official business and we're footing the bill, damn right they're representing the USA and should be dressed accordingly.

Showing respect by dressing appropriately used to be called class, decorum and dignity but this family has stripped us of all that and is flaunting it for the whole world to see.

And to think the libs said Bush destroyed our standing in this world, puke
