Your reaction here reminds me of a parallel...how people would be more upset over the pictures of aborted babies than the laws that allow them & the abortionists who would dismember them.
Since Romney is against a given baby in the womb (he favors allowing parents to "donate" them to research), he is not pro-life. But he puts up a pretense.
If I exposed Romney for the pro-life-taking bastard he is, with resulting dismembered babies' pix in accompaniment, I suppose you would comment that perhaps we should sequester that "dirty work" info & those pix lest somebody who wants to take even more pre-borns' lives get re-elected.
That's what so horrifying here...We have so-called "conservatives" implying, "Let's vote for the mass murderer; otherwise the mass-mass-mass murderer might get re-elected."
You? It's not the open racism that upsets or provokes you. No. It's that a critique of this racist-promulgation actually sees the light of the day.
It's this kind of 'tudes that allows both abortion and racism to flourish.
