Ted, <Why would you find the truth insulting.> The insinuation was that every Republican is either racist or conciously supporting racism. I won't argue against your personal experiences. I'll just say that in my personal experiences, I've also seen my fair share of racial slurs tossed back-n-forth. This was especially true back at my alma mater, even though the campus literally prides itself over its diversity. Heck, even Spike Lee himself once directed a racial slur at me personally. (It wasn't too serious, and I took no offense. I'll tell you about it later, if you want.) <Whites still rule in this country.> I'm not worried. "Good 'ole boy" networks are very inbred, which usually leads to their demise. Trent Lott's comment is an example, though I don't like the overreaction to it any more than I like the comment itself.
