Gawd...Obama isn't a sexist, Hillary isn't a racist...

[SaveElmer]

Now just shut the fuck up...!!!!

What a cesspool this place has become...

[Bicoastal]

1. I agree...and it's all THE OTHER CANDIDATE'S FAULT!!!1!1!

:sarcasm:

[pampango]

5. Plus "The other candidate started it!" Just like on the playground. n/t

[Virginia Dare]

2. Agreed, give it a rest...n/t

[Politicub]

3. It's sad, itsn't it?

:(

[SaveElmer]

16. Well it is certainly making my decision to go independent look wise...

The whole thing is just helping John McCain...

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

4. There does seem to be a lot of heightened sensitivity in here on all sides

[MrCoffee]

10. sensitivity my ass, people are just making stuff up

[LostinVA]

22. Yeah, I know

It's been kinda like that the last few weeks, but today? Jesus Christ.

[Marrah_G]

26. The pukes are watching this and cheering.

[LostinVA]

29. I know they are

[Tellurian]

34. It's called blaming the Winner for their candidate's LOSS!

I know it sounds silly but that is exactly what it IS!

The Obamanations while surreptitiously licking their wounds are lashing out at Hillary and her supporters as a method of soothing their pain.

And at the same time, dinning their lessons into their uninitiated students.

[Catherine Vincent]

6. Thank you!

[Justitia]

7. I just got told that ALL Dean '04 supporters are / were racist douchebags - no shit.

Welcome to Crazytown!

[Bicoastal]

8. Um...you're not getting the point are you?

Or did you forget your :sarcasm: sign?

[Justitia]

11. I was making a stmt of fact. Is there something you want to "explain" to me? -eom

[Bicoastal]

12. Oy, I give up. nt

[Justitia]

13. Vey. Sorry you didn't like the example. -eom

[Bicoastal]

14. Oh my GOD--I am SO sorry.

I completely misread your OP--I thought you were CALLING former Dean supporters racist...which just shows you what kind of a mood I'm in right now.

Please forgive me!

[Justitia]

15. LOL! That's kinda funny! No problem. My mood isn't so hot after being called a defacto douchebag

LOL, so I sympathize!

;)

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

9. I disagree with part of that.

For reasons which may not be obvious.

[Kahuna]

17. You do realize that a person can use racist tactics in a campaign

without being actually racist, don't you? It happens all the time. Look at the republicans.

[Didereaux]

18. THANK YOU!

[LostinVA]

19. You're 100% right

This place has been very, very nasty today. It makes 2004 look like the Pets forum.

[Township75]

20. Let's make everyone happy.

Obama is a sexist and Hillary is a racist.

Now both sides have something.

[ProSense]

21. When was sexism attributed to Obama?

I think you're adding to the cesspool.

[LostinVA]

23. I don't think he ever really was

Or, at least not like the storm right now.

It's also very embarrassing for everyone on DU, to be honest.

[Lucinda]

24. Make a cup of tea and maybe the answer will come to you.

[ProSense]

27. It wouldn't

because I don't do spin.

[Lucinda]

28. Or facts much either, I guess.

[ProSense]

30. Is this the comment

"It's that experience, that understanding, not just of what world leaders I went and talked to in the ambassadors house I had tea with, but understanding the lives of the people like my grandmother who lives in a tiny hut in Africa," Obama, D-Ill., told a crowd of would-be voters in Coralville, Iowa, on Friday.

The veiled shot at Senator Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., couldn't be more succinct as he argued that her experience level as a first lady doesn't outshine his as a world traveler.

more

I read the quote and the subjective spin.

[Marrah_G]

25. Who wins when we are fighting each other?

People forget who the fucking enemy is. They divide our party and by doing that, they win.

They don't have a chance in hell of winning if we are united.

You can bet this shit will all be used against our party in the GE.

[alcibiades_mystery]

31. I'll add one more: Obama isn't a homophobe

[calteacherguy]

32. When I am accused by Hillary supporters of being a "sexist pig"

I do not sink to that level by calling them racists.

I wish everyone would do likewise.

[marmar]

33. Agreed. Thanks for the sanity.

[BenDavid]

35. Elmer, you are right on my friend.

[Flabbergasted]

36. Good one Elmer. nt

[Occam Bandage]

37. Absolutely.

[MethuenProgressive]

38. kick!!

:kick:

[CyberPieHole]

39. Obama panders to bigots and homophobes...

I think he has misogynistic tendencies...the "you're likable enough" quip was his way of attempting to dismiss her.

[Captain Hilts]

40. THANK YOU. nt
