Remember when the families were told that Hitlery and Obama were not going to rest until the perps were found?
My pleasure!
I personally would prefer insults to take the high road and avoid profanity, but at least it’s not giving the opposition ammunition to “prove” conservatives are racists.
I’m not defending Obama or his policies. Just want to be sure that is the target and not his ethnicity.
People are free to be racists if they want to be, but it is not conservative, nor do such comments advance conservatism, nor should they be tolerated on FR, imo.
That’s an improvement.
Personally, I think derisive terms about sexuality are unproductive, too. I stick to calling same-sex sexuality “homosexual” generally. Otherwise people just get caught up in name calling rather than persuading.
The left persuades through appeals to emotion. The right usually appeals to logic and reason. It is important to show the faulty logic of emotional appeals by demonstrating that the plans, strategies, and actions of the left tend to make the problems they claim to address worse.
You want to help the poor? Good. Embrace free markets. You want to help homosexuals and others with sexual identity issues find peace? Good. Embrace religious liberty. You want citizens to get a good education? Good. Minimize the role of government.
Keep in mind that part of Obama’s strategy has been to keep us continuously agitated with one outlandish action after another. Seems to be working pretty well.
While anger toward Obama is well deserved, we do not need to allow it to take us off message.
Agree on the racist stuff, whereas profanity is just words. On the surface I’d agree that Obama’s core issues have nothing to do with color, except he is stirring that pot deliberately to incite riots and discontent.
WORD.
Seems like everything is racial; even when the truth is spoken. The man IS a half breed - half white; half black.
Whether it makes FR look bad; Jim Robinson is the ultimate arbiter(It is his site and we are all guests). He says stop; then I’ll stop making a true statement.
OR we can create a John Dean of our own. Lock a couple of people up (start with the writers of the memos). Charge them with falsifying documents, perjury. jaywalking. Let them sweat it out with Bruno for a cell mate. They’ll turn faster than air escaping from a balloon.
There is a difference between pointing out relevant facts and using racial slurs which do not represent conservatism nor this site.
Exactly what is your purpose for pointing out that Obama has mixed ethnicity in this context? How is it relevant? Why do you think it is necessary to do so using a term that is considered a racial slur by many people?
Before your reply, you may want to read the instructions just beneath the Post button: Please: NO profanity, NO personal attacks, NO racism or violence in posts.
Thanks grundle.
Benghazi was a CIA listening post... and what the Clinton's have 'sold' for years is 'insider information'... (and Ameircan treasure - but that's as different subject)... There might be a connection ...
Right.
