Sean Penn on CNN's Piers Morgan Tonight: "And, and there, yet there’s another problem. You have what I call the 'Get the ‘N’-word out of the White House party,' the Tea Party [...] I don’t think there’s any doubt about it. If you ask a representative of the Tea Party, 'okay, Social Security, socialist, get rid of it,' they're going to get very confused. What the, what they're -- at the end of the day, there's a big bubble coming out of their heads saying, you know, 'can we just lynch him?'”
Funny that the tea party seems poised to elect Herman Cain, an even blacker black man than obama....
Doesn't this just burst the biggot racist argument for good? |

Let me think for a minute.....
Tea Party, Tea Party..... Oh, yes... That's the crowd that famously said, "Keep your dirty government hands off my Medicare."
The Tea Party certainly has a clear understanding of things...
(By the way, "bigot" is spelled with one "g.") |

One of many good things Obama stands for is education, like learning to spell "bigot" correctly. |

Obama has no genetic link to slavery, Cain does. Obama had a white mother, and was brought up exclusively by her. Cain has a very compeling life story that includes a uniquely American-African history, experience and genetics. |

One thing us white guys need to keep in mind. We really have no idea what's like to be black. And, that's any shade of being black. Moreover, one's heritage really doesn't make any real difference in the scheme of things. |

I went to a mostly black high school, does that count? |

JP, no doubt you know much more about blacks than I do based on close exposure, but I believe that being black is another world entirely. To really understand their world, you need to wearing their skin and seeing things through their eyes. |

I don't care about how black or white any of them are. My far greater concern is Obama's upbringing (and even his schooling by his own account) virtually exclusively by and among self-avowed communist and Marxist activists. |

Pueno, if medicare had been privatized with stringent rules that only allowed the money to be put into medium term U.S. securities, we'd all be better off. Perry was correct that it has become a giant ponzi scheme.
JP, I went to John Burrows Jr. High in L.A. and was the only white guy there. I was brutalized for 3 years. I came home bloodied weekly. One of my first girlfriends was black.
Many of you don't know that I have a degree in music, and was the only white guy in the USC Jazz ensemble. It wasn't until I got my MBA that I turned nasty...
Chandler, most think and live like we do. I have black friends who are more white than I am. The vast majority of them can't dance, sing, or run, just like us...they even windsurf....omg! |
