The media will have a field day with this. Does Roger Goodell know about it yet? LOL

BS, This sounds like a plant to me.

I have no problem with throwing things at CNN scum, but the racism aspect of it sounds fishy to me.

I smell a rat.

Re: 2 Ejected From RNC

That was my thought exactly. After Artur Davis' speech last night the DNC needed to do something to distract the masses.

The only problem is that the two rats will run off into the weeds never to be seen again but the media will replay this for months.

No, it just looks fishy to me.

I'm not naive enough to think that all racists are Democrats, just a majority of them.

LOL. That comment alone proves you are VERY naive to the reality around you. There are eqaul amounts of bad people of every race, religion, sex, and political leanings on the planet. Common sense tells you that. The Republican political rhetoric has been very racist since President Obama took office. It's very prevalent in their political ads now running. The welfare ad is racist and a COMPLETE lie. His policy actually gives Governors MORE lattitude in their handling of welfare and it was done so at the request of REPUBLICAN Governors. LOL. I KNOW the majority of Republicans aren't racist. But, it has been a political tool Republican politicians have used at every turn. One never seen before. I personally find it sad and funny since there are more white people on assistance than african american people. My Mother ran the Housing Authority in our city for 30 years. The majority of her tennants were elderly and the working poor. Yes, there were some who were content to exist on assistance. But, that was always a small percentage. A very different picture from what the Republican party wants you to believe.

Yet the Democrats play the race card 100 times more frequently than Republicans do.

If you don't recognize that then you sir are the naive one, not me.

Voting for a man BECAUSE of the color of his skin is just about as racist as they come, and many will tell you, quite openly, that they voted for Obama for that reason and for that reason alone. Liberals crave the poor minority because they NEED them to justify big Government, and unfortunately the poor minority doesn't do its homework and vote for the leader of the free world based on nothing but the color of his skin.

What is racist about the "Republican Rhetoric"?

Here's what my liberal friend posted on facebook today:

I watched Ann Romney's speech last night. I felt like I was watching some fictional character like June Cleaver. I felt like, every time she looked directly into the camera she was talking in code to some secret society. She did a fairly good job of trying to convince white women to vote for her husband. Certainly she must realize that working hard and building massive wealth is neither available nor an aspiration of all Americans. I feel that she needs to spend some quality time with the many honest and hard working people in East Oakland, East LA, East Baltimore, the Iron Triangle of Richmond and many other ethically, culturally and economically diverse areas across our nation.

I knew when I was watching that woman speak that he'd post some racist crap about it...and sure as spit. But THIS is the thing that really got me:

Certainly she must realize that working hard and building massive wealth is neither available nor an aspiration of all Americans
Well, those folks over in East Oakland, East LA, East Baltimore, the Iron Triangle of Richmond may not "ASPIRE" to it, and that's their problem, because the fact that they CAN work hard but chose not to sure as hell shouldn't be MY problem.

Now. Is that racist? No.

And let me add one more thing. There are more white people on welfare than black people, but there are more white people than black people. The right way to measure what you're trying to insinuate is a percentage, and that's where the argument will explode in your face. Look it up if you want, but taking my word for it is easier. I HAVE looked it up. Bank it.

Assistance programs are being abused at EVERY TURN. The Republicans aren't making that up sir. If you're ever in California, we can get together and I can personally show you where and how they're doing it out here. If these people worked half as hard at a real job as they do to scam assistance programs we'd all be better off.

.
So voting against him because he IS black isn't as 'racist as they come' ?
Not that thousands, millions voted against Obama based on race, not that the Klan, Skinheads & Neo-Nazis all support the right?
Where is the most racist region in the US? The red and redder states of the deep south.
