Anybody from either side who votes for their candidate primarily because of their ethnicity is a racist. I don't buy the excuse that blacks voting for a black candidate because he's black isn't racist because of historical oppression. If they do that, they're discriminating against the non-black. It applies both ways. That doesn't mean all blacks voting for Obama are racist, or all whites voting for McCain are racist. But the one's voting primarily because of race are.

 

:D

I'd be interested in knowing more about that.

 

 

 

I'm talking about all racial biases up to and including hate crimes.

 

Japanese invented feelings of superiority over other races? Please explain.

 

Explain the comment about Hindus please.

 

Nice way to say all Wahhabists are terrorists. :thumbsup:

 

You forgot to add Fundamentalist Christians who believe that they are the only true religious followers of the world and that their support of Israel is only so the final act of their play is possible. Their inability to accept any peace accords in the Middle East involving Israel that affects the outcome of their rapture play is just hurting the way America is perceived in the world. Their political pressure is counterproductive to helping our image when it comes to treating all of those in the Middle East fairly.

 

Bump- Steely- Calling you out on this one again...still getting crickets on what exactly you were referring to above. Your attempt at linking Christians to Muslim terrorist is weak.

So was his attempt to link Gitmo detainees with the Geneva Convention and saying that they haven't gotten hearings, are incommunicado, despite evidence to the contrary (in the news recently... KSM and many others had hearings a year ago and trials/tribunals are progressing).

 

He knows he's wrong and will continue to close his ears and keep shouting his BS.

 

I suspect that Steely is another iteration of molson, mickey, et al. Just registers new names and does some posts awhile in advance of when he either plans to go apesh-- with one account, or when the inevitable banning occurs for cumulative malfeasance. We all know these usual suspects b/c they keep showing up here to joust at windmills and Tom, AD, KRC. It's a little hard to believe that each one shows up as a fresh newcomer considering the similarity in viewpoints, the baggage they bring in the banter, and the replay of actions that get him/them banned.

 

Some people just want to come here to instigate rather than discuss and, hopefully, learn something about all the things politics dips its fickle finger into.
