Obama has to have been influenced

The question is......Christian 134, did you write this LTE?

Mr Hauff seems to be confused. B.O. has one qualification that trumps any and all negative aspects that may exist. EVERYTHING else is moot.

Thanks for the advice Mr. Hauff. It is always nice to get advice from Republicans like yourself.

Ah patricia, you are raising the R word without actually saying it. "VEry ClEvEr"

Listening to Ms. Thomas is like spending a night in the museum of white supremacy.

Guilt by association is in no way similar to guilt by descent, even to the strangest point of view, which you do have justus4. However, "we're known by the company we keep" and " birds of a feather flock together" are cliches for a reason. The concepts have meaning. Denying that they do won't make them go away.

Where you been justus, haven't you heard, we lower the standards for minorities here and you still you keep b****ing.

Justus and Shivas, you are forgetting that early BLACK Americans did the same thing and even owned BLACK slaves!
If you're going to condemn and play the race card, do it with equality!

CBBP, is that a typically white comment?

Shivas, is that a typically black comment?

I don't think so PT, just stating facts. If the poster wants to throw rocks then they should have rockproof windows!

AH-h-h, facts. We try to keep those to a minimum on this forum. They just stir things up. ("oil on the water" is my nickname)

Amazing how some people can't seem to wrap their heads around the idea that ALL races are capable of racism.

PT, I beg forgiveness, I forgot my place and forgot that unless I can post baseless and unverifiable tirades I shouldn't be here.

CBBP, there were American soldiers in WWII who deserted to communist countries. Does that reflect the entire US military? Your use of one or two examples of Black individuals using slavery to increase their wealth does not excuse slavery and the subsequent lynching and witholding of civil rights by a white, southern redneck govt. Poor Ms. THomas you are certainly a victim of reverse racism, I am sure.

If all races are capable of racism, then why do so many race to see who can be the most racist? Sounds racy to me.

Reverse racism is msicar.

Can somebody show me a credible source stating that blacks owned slaves in the united states? Blacks were considered property, and could not own property in those days. Please, not a white supremacy site, go to google and look under scholarly articles.

Pat Stop, you sound like Maude, Edith's cousin. The chronicle seems to be joining Fox news in an all out assault on Sen. Obama.

The term reverse racism is racist in itself. It is presumptive that the opposite race of the writer does not know their place. How dare they be racist toward me! I am the only one who has a right to be racist!
Not pointing fingers, just my opinion.

Republicant, I don't believe there's any site that would convince you beyond anything you already know. The truth would just hurt your feelings.

owensjef, FOX just likes to pick on black people. Do you watch football?

Republicant, you are correct that the term reverse racism is a racist term, but it's a matter of point of view. It may also be said that it implies that it is an unusual occurance for the writer to be the victim of racism, which in todays world is becomming more and more untrue.

So in other words PT, you have no proof either.

Fox is a bias sorry excuse for a New station, No one said anything about race Pat , so don't start that mess.

Here's one site Republicant, but as PT stated, I doubt you will believe it unless it states the point of view that you have already formed. http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/aaohtml/exhibit/aopart2.html

owensjef....name one News Station that is not a bias sorry excuse.

I stand corrected, there are a plethora of matches in google for this term. I take solace in my own error in the knowledge that PT was wrong as well.
