I'm a little confused here - who has accused marajade of being racist? Saying someone has played the race card simply means they've accused *others* of being racist, with no basis to do so. The posts prior to hers never gave any indication that they opposed her for anything other than the abortion issue, yet she chose to insult them and accuse them of racism anyway. To suggest people are using this issue to disguise some sort of racist desire to bring Condi down is to ignore the fact that threads about a Giuliani Presidency draw the same criticisms - and last time I checked, he was neither black nor female.
I didn't accuse anybody of anything. All I did was say that Condi was black in describing her. Posters stated that I was using the race card.
