I over heard a man....

who was bashing Obama at a truck stop! There was another man was standing there, when he ask the man bashing the President! Why do you not like him? The other man had no answer! That's when I was floored when the man asked if the reason why was the President is black? The other man said maybe! The man asked the jerk if he liked Eddie Murphy, Micheal Jordan and a couple other famous black man? The jerk said yes that he did like them, then said what does have to do with the President? The man said, "hum, they are all black". Then he said he did not vote for Obama, it was not because the color of his skin but it was because of his policies. To top it off! He said that he should have voted for Obama! Everyone who was standing around laughed at the other man while he walked away , very mad!

2. Good. Racists need to be put in their place. We're all human. We're all mammals.

I don't give a shit what race, gender, or species you are. We're all here together. Racists are about the worst you can get. What the FUCK reason do they have for thinking they're better because of their skin color, religion, or nationality? It's so damn stupid that it makes me want to be a bigot against them, but I'm not that way. It still pisses me off. They have no clue. I pity them for that. They're lost souls with no hope of redemption. And I'm not religious. But they have no souls. You don't have to be religious to believe in having a soul.


As for being mammals, every non-human mammal has an edge over the Repukes. The non-human mammals have souls and a sense of ethics, and, well, humanity if you will. While they might eat one another, they are ethical, decent, respectful, and demonstrate that regularly. The Repukes do not. I'll go with the non-human mammals on this one. They understand reality.

Yes I'm pissed.
