‘I Voted for Barack Because He Was Black’

The Dude said:
All these people claiming black racism are at least klan lite. It's indicative of how not over racism we are. One of your great uncles or granpaws got a management job cause he married into, was born into, or went to Lilly white school to get it. One of poets great uncles or grampaw was not allowed in white restaunts, could only workin in the kitchen and knew someone who was lynched. Spare me your blacks can be racist to ya fucking morons. You are all an embarrassment to an already embarrassing white race!

I wouldn't, but I'm not every woman. I recall the morning after the debate between Biden and Palin I was at a breakfast meeting at a diner, and I overheard the two waitresses who have worked there for a long time, both about 50'ish, exchanging how they thought she did such a great job. I could hear the pride in their voices. It really interested me. I doubt either of them were right wing republicans. I doubt they were very political at all. That's about identity. Really, if you are a 50 something woman working the breakfast shift in a diner, is who becomes President really going to have any effect on your life? It's highly doubtful, regardless of their policies. But a woman who everyone said was a big dummy being able to hold her own against Joe Biden, that made them feel proud. Maybe they could too.

I wouldn't judge them for voting for Palin just because she's a woman.

Wait, when did Palin hold her own against Biden? Not in the debate I saw.

It's interesting that Bidstrup states that only conservatives consider the 1950's a golden age. You ask liberals and they'll tell you during the 1950's that unions were strong which meant we had a strong middle class. Education was good. The national debt was under control before Reagan sent it skyrocketing to benefit the rich (or soon to be rich). There was no where near the income inequality we face today. Top marginal tax rate was 91%. What am I missing?

(there were obviously racial inequalities etc. but Bidstrup didn't address those so neither did I)

Good point. Bfgoon in particular idealizes the 50s, licking Eisenhower's balls whenever the opportunity presents itself.

Billy said he didn't do anything, and it's gone now. But it had been there from yesterday I just never had a chance to say anything yesterday because I had to leave for a party. But it was there again this morning. I am still a little suspicious that you guys were gaslighting me, but maybe it was just a glitch? I don't know but the gun is gone now so... but damo I swear to God it was there. It was even in my PM's.

No, it's you, remember? You're the moron who voted for Barack Obama. I'm the one who tried to talk you out of it, but you were too busy creaming your shorts over Hussein's skin tone.... pervert.
