I have been reborn and I am now a strong warrior woman. These are my stories.

"We know what kind of campaign they're going to run. They're going to try to make you afraid of me. He's young and inexperienced and he's got a funny name. And did I mention he's black?" Obama

Yes, it's great to be in an election when if you are ever questioned or criticized, you just call that person racist.  That usually shuts them up.  What you're not an Obama supporter?  Well you must be racist.  I think the truest part of the above quote and my biggest concern would be the inexperienced part.  Does that make me an inexperiencedist.  Nope, still racist?  Okay, if you say so. 

"he doesn't look like all those other presidents on the dollar bills." Obama

Nope, he doesn't but then neither does John McCain.  I mean all those guys on the dollar bills dressed funny and wore their hair in odd styles.  Jeesh - this is the stupidest argument I have ever heard.  Yes, I'm afraid of any candidate who doesn't have a green tinge and dress in costume.  Excellent point.  What?  What's that?  I'm racist.  Oops, I forgot.  Here I thought this argument was just stupid.  I forgot that I can be a "hidden racist" without even knowing it.  I really think Obama should have a makeover, grow a beard and start wearing a stovepipe hat so he can look more like the President on the five dollar bill.  He should insist that he always be photographed in profile.  Or maybe he should go for the powdered wig and breeches look that worked for George Washington.  Dumbest comment ever ~ really.   

That's not racial transcendence!

George Washington does to have big ears. Senator Obama does not have false teeth, and I have never seen the Senator wearing a powdered wig.

WOW!  The spittin image of McCain!

NOT

Why is it that if blacks support Obama because he is black it's not considered racist? What is the difference?

racism- a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.

 

Choosing a person because of race is not inherently racist. Choosing someone because you believe their race makes them superior is.

Excuse me?  Am I the only one who notes a glaring logical fallacy here?

Ah, so supporting Black Slavery isn't racist, unless one supports it out of a feeling of superiority over Black people?  ;~D

Where in the definition of slavery do you not think that denying someone their rights and freedoms and using them as a piece of property does not somehow make the slaveowner's actions an exercize of a feeling of superiority over the slave?

Aren't Democrats the party of equality??

I guess I have a big mouth, but I went to a a gas station in a predominatly Black neighborhood. There were Obama, and Black Power T-Shirts EVERYWHERE. So, when I got up to the cashier, I asked "So where are the McCain T-Shirts?" The woman behind the counter stood there for a moment, and laughed. I said, "OK, I see". And, as I walking out the door one of the black customers behind me called me a racist b***ch under his breath.

I feel that a good majority of black people are voting for Obama based on the color of his skin, and not on the facts. Let me just say this, and get it out in the open, I'm NOT racist. But the next time I hear a black person say that they are voting for Obama because he's black, I'm will feel so compeled to say that I'll vote for McCain because he's white.

Oh, I think Black Slavery is racist no matter what the justification might be.  You were the one who said that racism requires a feeling of superiority over someone of a different race.

Btw, if Black Slaves weren't considered human beings in the eyes of the law, then race had nothing to do with it.

I didnt say that it "requires" a feeling of superiority although in many cases that is present. That is simply one definition of several that define racism. There is no question that Black Slavery is racism. It actually fits within several if not all definitions of racism.

Logical fallacy?  Or just racism trying to disguise itself in Newspeak?

I don't like Hussein because he is a commie not because he is black. Hell, I would vote for Don King. Why a commie? Because he wants to take my hard earned money and spead it around.
