Rapper Lupe Fiasco: Obama is the biggest terrorist

[FreakyLocz14]

I "pulled the race card" because the statement made was so outrageous, that is the only thing I could think of as to why it was made. Seriously, there were no reasons given why it was made. And, the compared parties are so far from Obama, it is actually offensive to me. Why, because I had family fight against the people he was compared to. Now, I won't make a ridiculously broad statement and say that "republicans are known to be a racist group". But, I will make the statement that racists are usually republicans. That is why the race card is pulled so often, because so often, that is all that explains the ignorant views of some....

Why then were most people that owned slaves, and later instituted segregationist policies, Southern Democrats?

And it was the Northern Republicans who were progressive ... what would Abe think today

Southern Democrats are still pretty socially conservative and Northern (and Western) Republicans are still pretty socially progressive compared to their respective party's national average.

I don't see Romney and Co being socially progressive.

I don't see Romney and Co being socially progressive.

Let's look at two recent issues. Every Western and Northern Republican Senator voted in favor of repealing Don't Ask, Don't Tell. At the same time, a WV Democrat voted against it. Also, the Democrats that derailed the public option in Obamacare were from the South. The 34 Democrats in House that voted against the final bill were also mostly Blue Dog Democrats from the South.

I'm just saying (about Romney).
I do realise the South is generally very conservative, and thus, its representatives will have to act so too

Romney is a RINO, as well. Ever heard of Romneycare? It's the same thing as Obamacare at the state level that Romney pushed when he was Governor. This is why he will not have my vote this primary season.

That was more voteGet then anything progressive. Progressive would be implemented UHC. He's just not going backwards. lol

Except in Mass we have a public option unlike Obamacare.

Exactly. Romney is a RINO without a doubt.

Do you not realize, that both political parties have come full circle?

I found this as the second hit on Google. And it hasn't been updated since '05.

The Gallery of 'Bush = Hitler' Allusions

Wow, around 140 accusations, mostly from foreign, or far left orginizations. Now, compare that to the amount that he was compared to a chimp. Or, compare that with the amount Obama has been compared.... "certainly not to the degree that Obama has".....

 

[nlsme]

Nope.

The only outrageous statement was the statement you made saying this:




This is a very silly thing to resort to.

It has absolutely and completely BUGGER all to do with Mr Obama being a black man.

Just because Obama is black means nothing about what he does successfully or fails to do in his election term.

Being black has nothing to do with it.

His race has got nothing to do with it.



Huh?

This is also another very silly thing to say.

To which ethnic group are you referring to?

Whites... Blacks?

Racism works in more ways than one you know. And in any event calling Republicans "Racists" is extremely prejudice my friend.

Just because they are Republican does not mean they are in general racist people.

It is foolish to assume someone from a particular politcal interests group and calling them to be racists in general.

That is silly and just simply wrong.

IF you actually read the post you replied to, you would see that I explicity state, that I was not calling republicans racist. Rather, racists tend to be republican IN GENERAL. Sure, racism works both ways, but there are far more white racists in this country than there are any other race. And, the white racists tend to be republican.....

I'm going to close this thead. Please start another one with the specific topics you want to discuss. This one is way off topic and the conversation doesn't reflect the title. Feel free to discuss what you want, just start appropriate threads. For example:

Obama is anti-American.

Racists tend to gravitate to the republican party.

Smarter people tend to gravitate to the democratic party.

Whatever, just stay on topic please.

If you disagree, please PM me, my office is open.
