I will not blame you for anything. Like I said earlier, I respect your opinion. I only said something because that has become a mantra that Left-wing nuts would wish everyone would adopt. I don't support it. People stand and die on their own merits, regardless of color.

Fail.

because it was me that made the claim, and Merc called me on it. Maybe it isn't true. Maybe these right wing conspiracy theorist nuts aren't racist.

Maybe.

Conspiracy Theorists know no bounds in race, religion, or whatever. They are everywhere.

well, that's true. It's the target that's suggestive in this case.

That is because it a convenient arguement IMHO. Too convenient...

You serious? Because the dumbasses that believe the Jews are taking control of the world are definitely not anti-Semitic...

There are some racists who using the "birther" as an issue to cover up their racism and there are constitutionalists who would complain if they thought George W. Bush was born in Canada. You can't generalize them all as racist or not racist.

Please don't bother on my account. I can tell where BS lives by the smell.

My point exactly. But in reality they can't be generalized at all. Racism is a issue injected by those who seek to stifle the voices of those who disagree with Obama. It is a false notion, IMHO.

It's not false, it's just not all encompassing. That said, I've been meeting more and more people with various gripes about Obama, who when questioned further resort to, because he's a damn nigger. I've been really surprised how prevalent it is. ymmv, as PA has more hate groups than any other state.

Pete and I were talking about the dynamic. She thinks this stuff is going on because the right had eight years of everything going their way and they have not gotten comfortable with getting trampled. I'd push it further to say that the right identifies themselves as the only American voice and considering every other opinion to be from the "other." All opinions to the left of extreme right must originate in old Europe. Obama being a black man just fits too nicely into this otherizing world view. I doubt that Panama John McCain would have been the subject of such nonsense...

I heard (alright, half heard, whilst doing other stuff) a programme on the radio last night about the TEA party movement. Listening to a lot of their rhetoric, they did sound as if they believed that Obama and the 'left' were inherently unAmerican and that the 'the People' were themselves. Like they were living under some kind of dictatorship that hadn't been voted in (because they themselves hadn't voted for him).

That is interesting. I don't give those people the time of day. I too have been meeting more and more people with gripes against Obama whom they voted for and the Dems in Congress. I have never heard a racist remark about it but there is a lot of anger out there and they seem to be growing in numbers.
