Reply #29: I understand your point.... I simply do not see this as being so hateful. [View All]

As I said, it is certainly insensitive and in bad taste, but I think a lot more is being made of this than there is.

I worry that overreacting to any hint of racial insensitivity as if it were a klan rally is going to numb people to the issue, so when it shows up in a substantial context it will be more easily dismissed because, "they say everything is racist."


This amounts to making fun of how obama looks... we can't say that's off limits because of his race, or that plays into the right wingers' liberal white guilt BS.
