Once she does some research, be sure to let her know where some of her NEA union dues are going:

Teachers unions have contributed over $1.3 million to ACORN

Teachers unions have contributed over $1.3 million to ACORN and its affiliates, since 2005, according to U.S. Labor Department financial disclosure forms.

But there is no guarantee that the $1,333,112 million in donations from the National Education Association (NEA) and Teachers AFL-CIO unions are actually being used for their stated purposes, according to present and former Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now (ACORN) officials.
Some of the larger donations include $100,000 from the NEA in 2008 and $200,000 in 2007 for political activities. The Teachers AFL-CIO Local Union 2 contributed $406,730 in 2008, $457,778 in 2007, and $346,300 in 2006 for representational activities.

“It’s a little harder to use as a verb, but it is possible”

Nicely done.

Like the king of cuss words, I think RACER has potential to be used as adjective, preposition, adverb, noun, verb, and expletive:

Racket up my a$$? Well RACER you, Serena Williams!

One poster I saw in Washington said “It’s not about black or white on the outside, it’s about red on the inside.”

You’re right, in perspective to other issues it isn’t that bad. Well, 12% being sure we are racists, by itself is pretty good, considering how many black people have been brainwashed to hate all white people.

It’s more the 21% that can’t make up their walnut sized minds that really angers me. What does it take for that percentage of our population to generate some brain cell activity? It ain’t that complicated. Can’t these lumps of Play Duh (oops, I mean Play Doh) think?

This is about the same % of the population who are black. I don’t think that is a coincidence, especially when Obama got 96% of the black vote.

Amazed it’s not more considering the MSM has been stating it (if you are against the one’s policies, you must be racist) as some sorta fact for the past two days...
Are the Sheeple becoming wise to the situation?

This is infuriating!

F**k these people and their intimidation!

We all need to tell them to shove their race fetish.

This is about freedom not his race.

He’s half-white, half-black and all red—he must fail because he is a radical leftist bent on changing the fundamentals of our system.

Notice the "Office of Minority Health" and the "Office of Civil Rights" that ObamaCare would create?

That is racism, pure and simple.

Ditto that - race card is finally worn out. You’re also right that the plan is color-blind, meaning it’d suck no matter who proposed it.

Among African-American voters, 27% say most opponents are racist, 25% disagree, and 48% are not sure. Fifty percent (50%) of white Democrats reject the charge of racism, but 15% say it’s true.

No, it takes a bunch of white folks to get the number that high. 15% of whitey dems.

Now we know there is 12% radical black theologians like 0bama and his marxist administration.

Is it racist if I say they are the minority in this country?

Racer! I like it.

Let me be the first to say: Jimmah Cotter is a racer! Maureen Dowd is a racer! Jesse Jackson is a racer! Nancy Pelosi is a racer!

That was fun.
