DMaA, re: "What issues? I just see you wading in for a fight."

How about this for an issue;

When, in a long line of posts asserting that Obama doesn't care about his family or anyone else because he's "narcissistic," is a post that asserts it's really because he's of "mixed blood" something that should go unchallenged?

And if it is challenged, and if the poster answers with assertions that the poster is "free, white and 21," can you make some assumptions about whether the comment was racist?

And can we agree that there are some comments which society allows but which a healthy society should expect to be rebutted?

So, here's the deal; no one, not one person, on your enlightened thread made even one comment questioning the assertion that Obama's treatment of his aunt was because Obama's of "mixed blood."

So I did it for you.

That's simply it.

I did it and Lindey Bill banned me, and now you follow me here to argue that my post was offensive.

That's pathetically laughable, both on your part and on Lindey Bill's part. And it says a lot about both of you in terms of either your perceptiveness or your values. Ed
