Do you have anything about al sharpton or Jesse jackson? People like that seem to stoke the fire of racial tension for personal and political gain and it's just as bad.

Or safe from them. I think it's like a contagion. It only takes one, or a few, people to let something go, or laugh at a racist joke, and there can be a snowball effect. Birtherism (birthism?) seems like an example of this type of thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-28130260077825385672011-04-21T16:55:11.067-05:002011-04-21T16:55:11.067-05:00After president Obama was elected, I started recei...After president Obama was elected, I started receiving the most horrible racist and disgusting emails from the people I went to church with as well as a pastors wife (from another church group). I had to tell people off, de-friend on FaceBook and stop attending church it was that bad. Luckily for me our pastor took this seriously and put a stop to it. <br /><br />ANYONE that does this to another human being (even the George Bush Curious George routine was offensive to me) is showing at its' heart a total disrespect for humanity.

This country is insane and it grows more so with every day. The sickness is great. She should not be in office. How does she thing she can represent the people in her district who are black or Hispanic or anything other than white if this is how she really feels. She can not have their best interest in mind. And yes, it may be Orange County but people of other races are there. This is a teachable moment for her. She really should think about how she really feels and if she can really do a good job given her beliefs. Because if you can do this to the President then you will do worse to others.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-66893015119082014102011-04-21T06:00:54.175-05:002011-04-21T06:00:54.175-05:00I LOVE YOUR BLOG!

In regards to what you wrote about Obama's birther issue, my guess is that it's ultimately going to be be used against the Republicans by Obama because honestly, don't you think that the CIA checks out any possible Democrat & Republican presidential nominee BEFORE they are nominated by their political party, let alone BEFORE being sworn in as president? I'm betting that Obama is waiting to release the CIA investigation shortly before voting day on 11/4/11.Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11803291124585411656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-64398450649713146792011-04-20T20:09:55.136-05:002011-04-20T20:09:55.136-05:00Remember when the GOP stood for balanced budgets, ...Remember when the GOP stood for balanced budgets, individual freedom and isolationism.<br />The Republican Party has run up these deficits, we want the federal government to be in our bedrooms and between our women and their doctors, we started two wars instead of ending them like the Korean War and were supposed to stop the Vietnam War the Democrats started.

In short, she's too shallow to do the kind of work, the deep introspection needed to confront one's own internal racsim.<br /><br />And by not confronting her, the press is an ass.Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06367960115761521788noreply@blogger.com
