So Rep John Murtha says, anyway. http://www.indianagazette.com/articles/2008/10/16/news/10004043.txt

Nevermind that I’ve never met that sonofabitch Murtha, he’s ALLOWED to judge ME because he’s BETTER than I am, after all he is a US Representative and good Democrat, right? It COULDN’T be that don’t care for Obama because of his PARTISAN POLITICS, his stance on ISSUES that matter to me, his oily “used car salesman” DEMEANOR, -OR- all those PEOPLE he chose to hang around with BEFORE he cut them off for becoming a political liability…It’s ALL about skin color, right?

Oh Horseshit…

I hope this little bit of foot in mouth disease costs Murtha HIS cushy job as well. (Unless ACORN bought THAT election too)

I really DID intend to ignore this, but I mean, jeez…

Congratulations, apparently you’re in good, and plenty of, company! :slight_smile:

I mean, after all, Mik, aren’t you one of those folks who cling to their guns and religion. too?

Murtha’s an idiot. Those of us who are current and former Marines have decided that he is an ex-Marine. Do you remember the opening scene of Branded, starring “The Rifleman,” Chuck Conners? His rank was ripped off, his buttons were cut off and his sword was broken and he was “drummed out of the Corps?”

That is what we have done (figuratively) to Murtha.

It is a fact there are many white people who will not vote for Obama because he is black. Just as there are many black people who will not vote for McCain because he is white.
Pretty much a wash as I see it.

Denzel Washington is black, so is Will Smith, Morgan Freeman and Stevie Wonder - even Whoopee Goldberg is black.

Mr Obama is not black, he is a rather dubious shade of khaki, middle-eastern brown of very mixed ancestry.

Not that it matters a hoot to me, as I am only a visitor to your fair land, but I wouldn’t trust Mr Obama to hit the pavement if I dropped him from the top of the Empire State Building.

As a trained interrogator with many years of practical experience of people-reading, it is my opinion that he is presently playing a part in order to ingratiate himself with his ‘interrogators’ - who, in this case, are the American people.

God help you all.

There are also many trail lawyers that will vote for Barry and Joe because they are lawyers. What's the point? You've got to make judgments, somehow.

I think elitist think they are publicly shaming someone when the call people racists or rednecks. They are just showing their own ignorance and unwillingness to accept another’s opinion.

“I’m not prejudice. I treat everybody this way.”

And she’s a “racist” too…

I’ve seen Obama shirts that read “He’s black, and I’m proud!”, but that somehow ISN’T racist?

Gah, what a totally screwed up world this is.

I’m reminded of a quote from “King of the Hill”:

“What’s this country coming to when you can’t hate a man unless he’s white?!” :slight_smile:

Somebody has to be the “fall guy”. Its just our turn in the barrel. We just need to be proud to be the USA’s largest minority.
