That said, I'm getting absolutely bombarded by Romney banner ads on the web and especially Michelle 'Jim Graves is a evil liar' Bachmann ads on the internet and on TV. There are a few larger WI cities that are part of the Minneapolis media market. I know we hit them up for some of our ads. | ||

Voting FOR Obama mostly because he's black is is equally racist as voting AGAINST him mostly because he's black. | ||

Favoring your own race over the other solely on the basis of race seems racist to me. I hear black people say "Obama better understands the black community and will address my concerns and needs more." and everyone is fine with that, if a white guy said "I think Romney better understands whites and will address my concerns and needs more" that guy would be labeled a racist. | ||

EDIT: The real racists are the democrats and liberals who refuse to let a colorblind society develop. Instead, these hypocrites spend all of their time dividing us among racial, gender, and other demographic lines. The biggest impediment to the elimination of racism in America is the democratic party. Oh yes. If only those democrats and bleeding heart liberals would step aside and realize that all wealthy white people succeed entirely on merit we would finally achieve the post-racial utopia that republicans and conservatives have been fighting for since the founding of America. Quit talking out of your ass, please. | ||

Jill Stein - 89% Democrat - 96% Environment (Stein) > Foreign Policy (Stein) > Immigration (Stein) > Economy (Stein) > Science (Obama) > Social (Obama) > Domestic Policy (Johnson) > Healthcare (Obama) I had no idea I was such a hippy. Probably should've used less "most important". The 2% Republican is "No, but least important" on gun control I think. | ||

Don't forget that our current attorney general is on record saying that black on white racism isn't actually racism (ie, there is no such thing as reverse discrimination/racism). | ||

Awww, is someone afraid of Eric Holder? Let me guess, he's covering his own acts of racism brought about by the blame game of Fast and Furious? We shoulda known he's beet setting this whole thing up from the very beginning........ | ||
