I dunno Yertle. I'm not sure. Lee Atwater's dying words were expressions of regret for making race too much of an issue in a presidential campaign. I don't think polarizing on the race issue is a good way of doing battle with Democrats.

I'm firmly against racism and I've been active in constructive civil rights projects in the past. But I'm just not sure it's effective to throw labels around.

"Lee Atwater's dying words were expressions of regret for making race too much of an issue in a presidential campaign."

Says who?! Bob Woodward, perhaps?! I love Lee Atwater, but that's sounds like the incoherent rantings of a dying man!!

"I don't think polarizing on the race issue is a good way of doing battle with DemonRATS."

Who said ANYTHING about "polarizing on the race issue"?! Wasn't me...I believe we need to quit pretending that Pubbies are Racists and DemonRATS are pure as the driven snow!! Let's bring this issue to a head, then pop the Left's Big Ol' Issue** once and fer all!!

"I'm firmly against racism and I've been active in constructive civil rights projects in the past. But I'm just not sure it's effective to throw labels around."

There ain't a prejudiced bone in my body, as each and every one of my black friends will tell you...but I'll throw around labels as I see fit and if the RATS wanna own up to the labels I'm throwin' around, it's 'cuz the RAT Party is RACIST!!

FReegards...MUD

**Left's Big Ol' Issue...think of the Race Issue as a Big Ugly Zit!!
