However, I really don't think that the majority of people at those parties had a problem with his race. My issue with your inclusion is that it is way overstated and used as a means to diminish the core intent. Also, please show me any sign or indication that racism was the issue. It may have been, I don't think it was, but it's certainly possible. Because, as far as I've heard, even people that were polar opposite of the spirit of the demonstration were allowed their ground. | ||

| hey 'Neo'-con, enough with the phony outrage about Obama's overspending. you want us to get mad at him for his stimulus, but i'll bet you had no qualms whatsoever about W putting 2 wars on a credit card and you no doubt voted for the guy who wanted to extend the war for 100 years at $10bn./month with an expansion war in Iran thrown in for good measure. i'd have more respect for you if you just admitted you don't like Obama because he's a Democrat. | ||

| You know.. I just realized that Obama isn't even a black president. He's just as much a white president as a black one. So, to remove the race card from further conversations I'm going to call him the 44th white president, which I think is just as fair as him being called the 1st black president. | ||

No problem for me or anyone with the slightest bit of common sense to admit as much.And in the second 'graph, you again seem to be making some counter-point to a point that I never made. I don't think racism was the issue or primary motivation behind the rallies. I simply think just as you yourself do in that I don't believe "that the majority of the people at those parties had a problem with his race." The problem lies in that we tend to look at things from our respective corners in the political spectrum, or race, or whatever. We see them as either a bunch of redneck racists or completely free of any racists thoughts whatsoever. It should be easy enough for any of us to believe that just like most other places, there were likely some of both. | ||

My mistake. I misunderstood your point that "as ludicrous as it is to suggest that tea-party goers are just a bunch of racist rednecks, it is equally (ludicrous) so to think that race has no influence whatsoever." Since I hear the left screaming racism at every turn and in almost every debate, I'm getting hyper-sensitive about it. | ||
