Its called subtext. But I am sure your obvious bias towards Obama prevents you from seeing that. When you are capable of taking a critical look at the comments get back to me.
you call it subtext i call perception. you're reading into it that he's accusing her of being a racist because of the subject matter and his skin color. that's not my problem, it's yours.
And you honestly do not believe Democrats have never used tactics like this? Don't be such a blind partisan tool of your party.
fine, show me some examples of modern democrats sinking to that level, please.
MY ENTIRE POINT WAS BOTH SIDES DO IT! Not just one, both. Believe it or not the Democrats do not just sit up in their ivory tower and try to defelect attacks from the evil Republicans. They're right down there in the trenches flinging mud back at them.
Second, like it or not, people percieve Obama as liberal. Like or not, liberal has turned into a dirty word. Simply the reality we live in. Don't blame me because your fragile mind can't handle that. I may not agree with it, you may not agree with it, doesn't matter. It is what is percieved by a majority and perception is reality. If you want to close your eyes and say "The sky is green," that is your problem.
i think you're a little off the mark here, especially that first paragraph. what's that even pertaining to? "BOTH SIDES DO" what? you're not even responding to my comment about liberalism being denigrated with that, so i'm guessing you got confused.
i love how when confronted with, what i consider a pretty good argument of there being a double-standard in this country when if comes to conservatism and liberalism, your only response is, "**** happens". maybe some of us think things should change and don't want to just lay down and accept it, like you seem to be willing to do. i guess that stems from the fact that you don't consider yourself a liberal and therefore couldn't care less whether that political ideology isn't given the same level of respect, or even recognition, as the others.
Allow me to say, I couldn't give two ****s whether you question your characterization of me. I know my beliefs, I know my party affiliation. Over the past few months everyone from my father to my 11th grade chemistry teacher has told me I need to vote Obama or Clinton or I am giving the election to the Republicans and I won't be a real Democrat. Bull ****. I will not be strong armed into voting for someone I do not believe in. I will abstain or vote third party first. I hope Obama does lose, as do I hope Hillary does, because it makes the odds that much greater that a real populist Democrat like Sherrod Brown will get the big chair in 2012.
no one is trying to "strong arm" you here, psycho. vote for whoever you want, or don't. some of us, however, are willing to look at these three candidates, whittle down their pros and cons and side with one. if you don't plan on voting for any of the candidates then why are you here in this thread *****ing and moaning about obama? are you trying to "strong arm" some of us into not supporting him?
one more thing, how the hell are you still a mod if you're allowed to go around calling people names and getting so emotionally invested in a political argument that you feel the need to e-scream and carry on like an insolent brat? i've never seen another mod lose their **** like i've seen you do countless times. maybe you're not cut out for it.
