ARE ANY OF YOUR FRIENDS RACISTS? GET THE BARF BAG; YOU'RE ABOUT TO FIND OUT

Don't get the wrong idea; some of their best friends...
This afternoon someone was IM-ing me from South Florida, a rabid Zionist and big John Hagee fan:
xxx23 (1:13:13 PM): I hate Obama
xxx23 (1:13:31 PM): my mother and all her friends are all voting republican in protest for the first time in their entire lives
xxx23 (1:13:47 PM): They hate Obama so much they want to send a message to the Democratic party
I suggested he get his mom and her friends some nice KKK robes but he then changed his approach and declared that some of their best friends are colored people and that they "help them all the time" and that the reason his mother and her friends are voting for McCain is because... let me find the exact quote. Ah, here it is:
xxx23 (1:17:19 PM): It has nothing to do with race, they just like Hillary, don't like him... they just want a woman president. They also think Obama's wife is a bitch and they don't like Obama's presentation. It has nothing to do with race. That is unfair to label everyone as racist because they do not like Obama!
I think there will be more than a few like this and maybe they'll even elect McCain. I would hope they do-- except that I live here too.
Or maybe they'll vote for Bob Barr instead. He's running for president too-- as a Libertarian.
His candidacy throws a wild card into the White House race that many believe could peel away votes from Republican Sen. John McCain given the candidates' similar positions on fiscal policy.
Barr, who has hired Ross Perot's former campaign manager, acknowledged that some Republicans have tried to discourage him from running. But he said he's getting in the race to win, not to play spoiler or to make a point.
"I've heard from Americans from all walks of life... they want a choice," he said at a news conference in Washington.
I was under the impression that the person from Florida and the
Presumably Barr's candidacy-- and his appeal to far right fanatics-- will force McCain to pick a lunatic fringe running mate like Huckabee. I wonder how South Florida canasta players and yentas will get their heads around that one. Well, at least
No KKK symps here:
UPDATE: I GUESS OTHERS HAVE NOTICED TOO
My friend's racist mother is hardly alone. Tomorrow's Washington Post isn't even talking about her and the women she plays mah jong with and they're not even talking about South Florida. Racism is very much alive and well, and all stoked up by certain politicians looking to exploit hatred and divisiveness for their own career purposes. And it didn't need all that much stoking.

Hi Howie. My grandmother (both of my grandparents, actually) spent their long twilight years down in Miami Beach - by way of Brooklyn, naturally. Just a small correction for you. They don't call it the Female Auxiliary down that far south. They call it the Sisterhood. And when they're not busy objectively critiquing the "presentations" of presidential candidates, they make a mean kugel.
Jeez my tribe makes me crazy sometimes. Maybe we'll get lucky and they'll all accidentally vote for Pat Buchannan again.
I think about all the people in our country who don't think about "issues" (other than those created by the 5:00 news) and those that are too overwhelmed with life to even vote and those who will vote based on race or the fact the earth has been here only 6000 years .... and those who hate "the dutch" (Mike Myers) and those that really are not educated and those who still abide by their parents mores .... I wonder where the votes will come from to elect a non-corporate candidate .... worries me.
they aren't racist...they just want a woman president
So they're going to vote for McCain. What geniuses.
You are not racists....you are idiots.
Race will naturally be an issue in the general electiion.
The good news is that rush liebaugh's "operation kkkos"
blew up in his face, a good indication that race will be a positive issue for Obama!
hahaha! Doesn't like the "presentation"??? What about it, exactly? Does Obama use too many "umms"? Does he not work the crowd well? Does he not utilize his space? Do distracting things with his hands? Bad eye contact? Bad pace? Doesn't like the "presentation." Off all the mindless, substance-less criticisms. I'd almost rather this guy be racist.

Being a South Florida resident, I must admit the constant barrage of sunshine and stupidity does dull the senses.
Of course not all supporters of Hillary Clinton are racists, but Hillary Clinton is appealing to racists. Logically one is a sub set of the other.
Hillary Clinton seems to be a bit racist to me. She is outwardly saying hardworking white people will vote for her. Unlike the not hard working blacks? Or unlike the not hard working educated white people?
This Ron Paul supporter (and libertarian) would never vote for Bob Barf.
I am from Florida and I would vote for Obama!! And to the person who said they are not racist yet call Obama becoming President the "End of the World" you are in denial. I don't know what you call it, but I call it racist.
