It is only class warfare when we fight back.

We should seek to win the class war, not try to avoid it.

The backdrop of white angry faces in that video being a prime example. Repukes accuse Dems of being angry (which of course they should be), but it is always the Repukes that look all pissed off and are spouting racist, sexist, homophobic hate.

The idea that this president is a hateful and angry person--something that couldn't be farther from the truth: he is a man of exceptional, one might even say excessive tolerance and generosity; or that my city of Chicago is a place where anger and hate come to rest, also a complete upside-down characterization. This is a city where people of all stripes come together, more than any place I've ever lived. Black, white, Hispanic, Polish ... we all ride the same buses here and shop in the same stores. We all go to Grant Park to sit under the stars and listen to the same music together. This is a beautiful, diverse, theater and art and music loving city that embraces all.

This man is completely mad.

As a former Chicago resident, I totally agree with you. And last time I checked, Chicago was most definitely part of the UNITED States of America. What a cheap shot.

I would tell you where to go, save that you change homes so often, you have no place which is loyal to you. How about Hell?

For over 3 years the GOP have called Pres O everything but a child of God, and its still going on.

This punk here is the candidate who has been divisive and hateful, not Obama. He is still continuing with the race-baiting and subtly acting as if folks who don't agree with him are from Mars. Mitt R0bme has shown himself to be nothing but a selfish, lying, mean-spirited dick who will stop at nothing to win. I actually used to think he was alright at least compared to the other looney tunes who ran for the G0Pee nomination this year, but now I see he's just as fucked up and racist as the rest of them. I really lost respect for the dude. He deserves to get clowned in the debates and lose this November.

Such projection! I guess he has already written off every Chicagoan, if he feels the need to pit himself against Chicago.

He steals Obama's line and then tries to claim Obama is "dividing America" by picking on defenceless rich people like him.
