McCain accused Obama of playing the race card????
Guess the MSM doesn't know about the racist emails going around among repug/freeper circles. I received one last week that contained only photos of Michelle Obama. There was no context. The only reason I can figure out for the email was to point out that (OMG!) Obama is married to a BLACK WOMAN!!!

1. And he also has two black babies.
God I hate those people. Always crying about people "playing the race card" when the only ones who seem to constantly come up with racist memes are well them.

Regards

2. Maybe that email was just to show how hot she is!
is it wrong to call the future first lady "hot"?

10. Hot?! sorry - not at all...she is the opposite of "hot"...
Edited on Thu Jul-31-08 11:54 PM by TankLV
don't know what koolaid you're drinking...

I wouldn't call her attractive at all...

Not "ugly" but certainly not at all close to anywhere near "hot"...

11. I don't have your opinion so I'm "drinking koolaid"? Why would you even comment here? Go post on...
imdb or something. Go lust after those anorexic drug-addicted drama queens on magazine covers. Seriously, how childish is it to tell someone that their opinion about beauty is wrong? Obviously Obama thinks she's hot, you wanna get in his face about it?

12. WTF, have a
little respect for a long term member since 2001!

My husband thinks she's horrible looking, so what! She's not running for president he is.

Different strokes for different folks......

Save your snarky reply!

this place. My "snarky" comment was wrong, but his is okay?? Really? I am not allowed to have an opinion, and I have to take shit b/c someone has posted here more? I really have had enough.

14. Don't be telling people
Edited on Fri Aug-01-08 02:08 AM by laugle
they shouldn't post in a thread. That's not your call. It's disrespectful and rude. We have moderators here.

The f--king country is falling apart and you get angry because someone doesn't think Michelle is beautiful............and thinks you drank the koolaid............geez....that's a catastrophe.........

Lighten-up.........You don't need to go, just grow a thicker skin..........

15. "Koolaid" is a BS right-wing talking point that people have used against Obama...
since the beginning of this campaign. I thought this was the one place I could go to not get that kind of shit. I was wrong.

3. I have never seen such examples of racism as what the McCain campaign demonstrates
every time they open their mouths. I can't not compare republicans to racists now.

5. They are desperate now and since the MSM is pretty
much condoning the racist attacks, hell they are condoning it. McSame is resorting to the Rovian tactics of the past.

6. I think the desperation is so obvious that the freepers can't deny it.
Gramps is going so negative so early that it will backfire big time. By the time of the election, even the most craven will see it for what it is -- empty words. Gramps has no plans for the economy and no vision for the country. He has no idea how to end the war and solve the energy problem. This will become patently obvious to everyone. After a while, people get immune to negativity. It like gorging on sweets -- great for a while but pretty soon you start wanting read substance.

7. Yea, I agree there is a burnout factor but I think it's going to
come to a head much sooner than we think....McSane's temper is barely in check....it's just a matter of time.

8. What kind of temper tantrum would it take?
The 29%ers will defend him, their war hero. I agree it's barely under control -- he seems to be talking through his teeth all the time and struggling to keep control. His monotone sort of gives it away, too.
