Race Card Play Number 15,987,456 for Obama's campaign.
Quote:
Apparently, using rhetoric like 'God and Gun Clingers' isn't racist, yet, but 'Joe Sixpack' and 'Hockey Mom' are because Palin said them ... Quote:

Cause so far, you're the only one making that assessment... Once again, the REPUBLICAN dissonance rears its head where they create all sorts of new standards to try to perpetuate their "guilt by association" techniques. This Democrat representative, speaking his personal opinion, does NOT reflect the "Obama Campaign" position. We, the American people, have endured these sleazy tactics with the attempts to declare people as "terrorist sympathizers" when they oppose the invasions of privacy... I think you need to realize EXACTLY why Bush's popularity rating is so low, and why McCain is losing ground in this election... |

Cause the context is thoroughly different. Palin is EXPLICITLY claiming Obama is "he’s palling around with terrorists". Palin is responsible FOR HER WORDS affecting others. Palin is DIRECTLY INCITING that issue. I don't see anything from Obama saying "not one of us" is racial. |

The whole issue is that the whining moron Gregory Meeks who claimed that Gov. Palin was being racist is claiming to be a mindreader. He has no idea what she was thinking of when she referred to "one of us". I'd also like to see the context in which the phrase was used. Gov. Palin has stood on the idea of having an ordinary, middle-class family and my guess is that she's referring to the fact that Sen. Obama is not a member of the sub-group of Americans that are considered middle-class, ordinary folks kind of people. I'd put money on the idea that she was talking to a middle-class group of people.
Also, keep in mind that Meeks is one Sen. Obama's top surrogates (according to his own website Meeks To Provide Buses For Volunteers For The Obama Campaign | Congressman Gregory Meeks). This is not just the words of a "man on the street" Sen. Obama supporter, it's the words of one of his top people.

Nobody has expressed support for "whining moron Gregory Meeks's" statement. Previously, I stated: foundit66: "Addressing what these individuals said, it's stupid, but they are addressing a stupid Palin comment so I really don't care too much..." Quote:
Palin: “This is not a man who sees America as you see it and how I see America. We see America as the greatest force for good in this world….Our opponent though, is someone who sees America it seems as being so imperfect that he’s palling around with terrorists who would target their own country.”Quote of the day: Palin on Obama - War Room - Salon.com It's been bounced around the media a far bit. Quote:
Earlier, when I gave the "he's palling around with terrorists" in quotes, I wasn't being inaccurate or facetious. That's her direct quote. Quote:
I don't know what's a bigger reach. Your explanation for what Palin said, or this last claim of yours. Hertz supplied me with a car for my trip to Denver, but that doesn't mean they speak for me... ![]() Quote:
I agree with what you said, and all of your below comments in post #10. |

I suppose I am the only one here who thinks that not only has Obama not played the race card. I don't think McCain has either. You can't control everyone around you though. I will say that McCain is playing a dangerous game with this "Hussien" "Terrorist friends" stuff. We all know there are nuts out there who actually beleive this crap. And that could get out of hand even more then it is already. Palin needs to sht her friggin pie hole. McCain has the base of his party already. Now she is stirring up nuts out there. We are going to see something bad here if they don't get a grip soon. Some wacko is going to take a pot shot. And later they will find a love letter to Sarah. You don't play games like this. McCain is an irresponsible man. Who puts winning above all else.
