Title: DU is evolving; next stop: opposable thumbs!
Post by: SSG Snuggle Bunny on September 02, 2012, 07:29:09 AM
The OP is rather long and worth replying to at-length but I became intrigued when I started reading the replies.

why do republicans hate Obama so much?

The replies were exactly as I expected--mostly--but there was something new.

The combo is deadly. Recall what they did to Clinton?

5. He is a black man who is a Democrat, and happens to be President.

Simple as that.

It is killing them.

Most of the replies are strictly, "Cuz he's black,LOLZ" but it seems there are too many Herman Cains, Artur Davis's and Allen Wests running around for that excuse to work much longer.

To say "He's black and Democrat" gives up the game. You might as well say, "They're OK with blacks so long as they're Republican!" which is the same as saying, "It's not the skin color, it's the ideology." Well, that ruins everything they've built up over the years!

If such a substantial portion of DU is compelled to recognize this--even grudgingly--then surely the Race Card has lost all value among the indie and moderate voters.

They don't want an election on the issues because they can't survive that kind of fight. So they want to make it about race but now it seems they can't even maintain that fiction amongst themselves.

Side note: All the A and B listers swarmed the thred to talk about race. Towards the end of the replies some people actually took the time to read the OP. It seems the need to scream racism pre-occupies the As and Bs, while the rest may actually be inquisitive.

By their line of reasoning, I can also say "he's white and a democrat".

His being a Democrat is more than enough; one needs no other reason to dislike him.

I like, "He's a black-hearted communist and a democrat....but I repeat myself."

I love purple with pink polka dot people...

.....as long they're not Democraps.

Then, we have a problem.

By their line of reasoning, I can also say "he's white and a democrat".
 

You most certainly can.

The DUmmies are developing opposeable thumbs.  For joy!

Too bad Spooky learned how to do it before they did (RIP, furry guy.)

Even without thumbs they've been able to grab so much free stuff that they have broke the country.

Maybe it was for the best--Spooky realized that he wasn't able to escape, and saw the Glock as his only way out.

To quote Kyle Ricky...
Racism is the only leg they have to stand on, so they will hump that leg until election day.

Evolved? Du is nothing more then a pool of single celled creatures that will never grow beyond the petrie dish known as Skinners island of misfit toys and other names.

Dummies need to realize the feel good voters of four years ago have been struck with great disappointment.

They are ready for a real change and it has nothing to do with skin color or in some cases political party. They want to send President Obama back to Chicago.
