please -- he said nigra. that's what you say when you want to be polite about using derogatory terminology for black people. world of difference.
i will add that this guy isn't a Tea Party leader, he isn't going on TV acting as a pundit for the Tea Party, he isn't a spokesman, he isn't anyone of any actual importance.
this.you can claim it's all about taxes and spending, but for many, many people, "tax and spend" means "tax the whites, spend on the blacks."
I love how religion and this birther issue are just covering up the fact that people don't like having a fucking black person for president.
There is nothing else to it.
When will some of you put your crayons back in the box?
I don't like President Obama's policies.
So that makes me a racists?
I didn't like President Bush.
Does that make me a racists?
Oh
I guess it doesn't with people who keep checking things
with crayons.

At first I was like, "Oh, I think he's just saying 'negros' like a redneck", then I was like "Oh, wait, he just listed 'blacks' and 'nigras' separately".WOW
I'm not a racist, but I don't want those niggers to vote.
You're not a racist. Bigot? Maybe. One thing's for sure, you may dislike many current Republicans, but you revel in the same art of taking offense to things and making sure people know about it, goshdarnit!When will some of you put your crayons back in the box?

The 2000s have been the decade where we've refined "being offended by something* to an art.well, someone's certainly playing the race card. the conservative's always play this "don't call me a racist!" card whenever the subject comes up, because it's far worse to be accused of racism than actually being racist.
"I think the fact that [Obama] won't allow exploration in the Gulf, doesn't allow exploration in the inter-mountain west, won't allow us to drill in Alaska, this is not helping the situation," said [Speaker of the House] Boehner. "And then when you look at what the EPA is doing in terms of the number of rules and regulations comin' down the pike, those were his responsibility."
It would be awfully convenient if new drilling licenses in the Gulf and relaxed EPA regulations could drive the price of oil down. They wouldn't. "If someone tries to dupe you into thinking we don't have enough refining capacity, that's bullshit," says Tom Kloza, the co-founder and chief oil analyst of the Oil Price Information Service. "It's a good soundbite, but if anything, companies have probably added too much capacity, and if they add more they have to focus on managing margins." It's a good enough soundbite that a lot of Republicans use it to argue that the White House's dithering on Gulf Coast drilling, in the wake of the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster, is responsible for rising prices. Oil companies, in this telling, are stuck in a sort of "permitorium." But the Deepwater disaster didn't have much of an effect on prices. When the rig blew on April 20, 2010, crude was trading around $84 per barrel. When the well was capped on July 15 the price had fallen to $76.
A barrel of brent crude oil costs roughly $50 more today than it did back then. We have some idea why. The critical factor has been the unrest in the Middle East. According to industry analysts, prices have gone up because of worries both about what's already happening and what could happen. The civil war in Libya, a country that usually produces 1.6 million barrels of light, sweet crude every day, has added something like $20 to the price of a barrel of oil—a combination of decreased availability and speculative panic. Worries about what could happen in other OPEC nations are driving the price even higher. "At any moment, people wonder if you'll see firebombs in the streets of Riyadh," says Kloza. "The Saudis have to cut more checks so people don't demonstrate against them. That's not something they're used to budgeting for."
The president—or members of Congress!—could skip the coming, predictable assault on oil company subsidies, and take on speculators instead. Wars and economic distress are not new to the oil market. But the market for oil futures has never been as big as it is now. It's basically quadrupled since the start of the financial crisis, as investors and funds have sought out safe, reliable commodities to invest in.
That's the political opening. The only question is whether anyone's actually able to go through it. Theoretically, the president of the United States could talk about this aspect of the gas price problem and elevate it. Unfortunately, the president is Barack Obama, whose every economic move is labeled "socialism" by the opposition, and who has already alienated some of the hedge fund managers in the center of this. A move against the commodities trade from Obama would be less Nixon goes to China than Johnson goes to Vietnam. But this is the plan Kloza is recommending to Obama, free of charge. "He will piss off Wall Street, no question," says the oil price analyst. "He will piss off Morgan Stanley. He will piss off Goldman Sachs. He will alienate people, but people will know he's ready to spank the speculators."
Not one person in here has ever stated that you're a racist if you don't like Obama's policies.
NOT ONE!
Why is it soooooo hard for you to address the actual topics? Surely you're informed enough to do so, right?
Drop the crayons talk, drop the s and be adult enough to engage, if not do not waste our time.
i doubt bvs was talking about just youI was simply commenting on this statement:
I love how religion and this birther issue are just covering up the fact that people don't like having a fucking black person for president.

No you weren't.
Beal was talking about birthers and those that think Obama is a Muslim.
Does that include you?
If it does then you're ignorant and it's not just the policies you don't like.
If it doesn't then that's not how you addressed it because you turned it around to be about you and how someone was calling you a "racist(s)".
Reading IS fun, try a little more of it
I say, concentrate on this issues. F***, after two and a half years, there's plenty of ammunition to use in criticising Obama without going near race and background issues. His record, for example. I think the reason the right obsess over the birth cert stuff - and their next gambit, as Maycocksean rightly says, will be to claim that the birth cert is a forgery, the issue won't go away - is that it's an easy, lazy win for them. It lets them off the hook also, in that it avoids the responsibility to present solutions for fixing America's broken economy.

It would be nice to hear some real solutions to our problems in America.

So, now that is the thought I was commenting on?
