And I dislike Obama's agenda because we dont really know these people well enough to dislike or hate them personally. I mean the guy does like basketball and baseball which puts him a few spots ahead of Marx and Mao. (a joke for the PC)

But what really amuses me is people like Riot who start fights over relatively meaningless subjects like Glenn beck and Sarah Palin (neither of which currently hold a position of authority and are basically paid entertainers) and believe themselves to be somehow neutral!

I always expect BWS to offer his opinions on subjects based upon his version of the world which is much different than many others here. I dont always agree with his take but respect his opinion. Nascar has a completely different view of the world based upon his experiences yet no one seems to respect most of what he has to say. While I admit that his pettiness and namecalling can surely not help the cause, he does bring a different view.

Now with that out there a random poster that didnt agree with brian would be 1000 times more likely to be called homophobic than a label being attached to someone who disagreed with Nascar.

You fail the NASCAR fan test! You cannot be racist!

Nascar has "views" which he cannot substantiate. All of his claims are factually incorrect and once cornered on his lack of research/knowledge turns on the angry, "you don't respect me or the military" personality. All I ask is if you're going to debate me on something, get your facts straight. Now it's Doreen (whom I happen to know and am friends with) that's got her facts wrong.

Palin, Beck, Rush, Olbermann, and the like are dead to me.

I hate to say it but you wont find a more racist group of people than blueblooded Lexington. And a whole bunch of them are Democrats.

And really why we continue to debate what these people say makes us look dumb. In my entire life I dont think I have ever listened or watched any of them for more than 5 minutes.

Absolutely agree on both points- yet another reason I really don't like living here. I should make it clear that racism is NOT a Dem or Repub issue...

I talked about the Dems screwing the black voter for 50-60yrs and got no response! So black ministers or people in entertainment/politics are "marginalized"(where'd I get that?) for disagreeing with the liberal rhetoric being foisted on American citizens today? That's why the Tea Party is growing!

The ironic thing about the inference that Fox news watchers blindly vote for who the talking heads say to is that on the opposite side of the street who has more voting lambs than the Democrats? Blacks, gays, jews, etc?
