If you watched the speech you would clearly hear POTUS not pronouncing the g in "ing". Clearly. He was gettin ghetto and the intelligent Americans who attended the CBC were not impressed by this nagger President.
Wait, was that a typo?
Ebonics is not what Americans expect from a President. There are many great Americans with a myriad of pigmentations that would be far better as POTUS.
The transcripts were fair when they translated this nagger dropping the "g". The ones including it were over compencating for obama's ignorance.
Wait, what's the definition of "An ignorant person"?

Really, gh_mod. That is hardly a flame and relevant to the point of the initial thread. FFS. You really should get past your racism and read it again.

So are 9 out of 10 posts that you place here. Including the one I am responding to.
Read the post for what I said not what you wanted me to say. Everything in it is accurate and does not distract from the fact that Barack talked to the CBC like they were ignorant fools from the ghetto. Nor does it distract from the fact that they responded to it.
What a way to represent America as.

Is that any different from when Hillary talked with a Southern drawl during her run for President? The fact is most on this forum voted for Obama either out of good old fashioned whitey liberal guilt, or his ability to give speeches. You got what you wanted, so stop complaining.
The fact is most on this forum voted for Obama either out of good old fashioned whitey liberal guilt, or his ability to give speeches.
Actually I voted for him because the crotchety old man he was running against was going to do the exact same things his Texas cracker predecessor had, not to mention the batshit insane pathological liar Barbie doll he chose for a running mate. Reasonable black guy and sort of crotchety Irish VP seemed like a harmless choice by comparison.

Ha! Obama wasn't my 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or even 5th choice as the candidate but, yeah, a far better choice then '08 McCain and his running mate in any year. I was never enamored by his speeches, never saw that appeal at all, even his much-lauded '04 speech that put him in the spotlight was meh to me, and guilt had nothing to do with it as guilt is a very poor decision-making tool...but given the alternative, who the heck else could a reasonable person vote for?

You get no argument from me there. IMO we had a choice between a guy who should be spending his retirement at Country Kitchen Buffet, and the smoothest talking hustler that has ever run for office.

The fact is liberal Democrats are the only species known to man whose thighs get loose over guys who can make great speeches. If that person making the speech is black and speaks in a phony MLK cadence, you all have to change your undies five times before the speech is over.

I can deny it. Here's why. During the entire delegate selection process in '08, a great majority of active Democrats supported Hillary Clinton. What pushed Obama over the top was an influx of folks who had never been active or involved in the party. Most of them, were gone as soon as the caucuses and conventions were over. So, no, I don't think the party faithful are that easily seduced. It was the general public who are attracted to anything shiny.

Thank you for that honesty.
Now if Beavis will admit his racism dictated his vote:

I should clarify that, yes, some partisans were enamored by Obama but I really think the numbers that pushed him over the edge were the newbies who only breezed in for the glamour and glitz and left when there was work to be done. And that I can only speak for the Grays Harbor Democrats caucuses and delegate-selection convention, 6th LD delegate-selection convention, and Washington State Democrats state-level convention for final selection of delegates all of which I worked credentials at. I certainly can't speak for what happened elsewhere.

Honestly, it doesn't matter. I watched in horror election night as I do every election night. This time I will watch as a republitard co-opted "TEA party" pushes one of the candidate fucktards to Presidency. We The People will always be screwed when either a D or R is elected.

Huh?
So I voted for Obama because I'm...a racist?
Or is it more accurate to say you are calling me a racist because you hate the fact that a black man won?
Racism didn't enter into it, dickhead. What part of "harmless choice by comparison" do you not understand?

You voted for the man based on the color of his skin. Your words. It's too bad you concentrated on his skin color when voting for the guy.
However it's refreshingly honest that you admitted Baracks skin color as a factor to justify your vote. Hopefully the other 75% of the demoncrats voters who voted for him will be as honest and forth coming.
It'll be interesting to see where your vote lands if the Repulitards put Herman Cain through for 2012.
Yes, beavis, judging a man (either negatively or positively) and a factor of that judgement is based on race, it is racism. And if it isn't, in your book of values, racism to judge a person on skin color; just what the fuck would you call it?

No, I voted for the guy because he seemed a harmless choice by comparison. As I said. Repeatedly. Skin color had absolutely nothing to do with it. My words. I concentrated on his being the lesser of two evils, or put another way "a harmless choice by comparison."
Here, maybe this will help.
"A HARMLESS CHOICE BY COMPARISON."
Got it now?
Maybe it just needs repeating again.

Better? Comprehending yet? Do I need to animate it for you, perhaps create an explanatory cartoon? Is there perhaps a pre-verbal method along the lines of the Teletubbies that would drive the point into your slab-like cranium?

Racism is taking into account his skin color. You just did that and no matter your back peddling you made a decision, even if partially, based on his race.
I made decisions based on his policies.
Thanks for your continued honest sharing.
BTW Who would you vote for in a race between Herman Cain and Barack Obama?

Oooooooh! I get it!
Thumper doesn't vote for Barack because he's black doesn't mean he's racist. Beavis votes for Barack because he's black doesn't me he's racist either!
Takes another drink of the kool-aid.
So that means that the KKK voting to lynch the, well as Beavis would describe him:

...how was I supposed to identify him? "The mass of protoplasm about two meters tall, whose total percentage of melanin will not be mentioned for fear of my being labeled a racist"?
I said I voted for him because he seemed the least harmful alternative. That's the reason. Interesting that you choose to fixate on that one triviality--but no mention of my identifying Joe Biden as "Irish." Does that mean I hate Irish people too?
Actually I am prejudiced...against stupid people. Alas, I gather it's too late to stop you from reproducing.
rac·ism [rey-siz-uhm] noun 1. a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others. 2. a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination. 3. hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.
Acknowledging someone's race, as a descriptive term, adjective, what have you, is not racism.

Agree. There's a lot of bending over backward that takes place in the name of sensitivity. Sometimes it goes overboard. One of the first things people notice about each other is skin color. Another is gender. There's a huge gap between noticing skin color and treating someone differently based on skin color. Same with gender.

I use the same altered definition of racism that Beavis uses. No one is going to argue with Captain Obvious** up there quoting the strict definition. You can see throughout Beavis' posts how he defines racism. If I or any of the TEA party would even think to acknowledge Barack's skin color as descriptive when listing why we didn't vote for him Beavis, Lumberjack and/or Stash would throw the racism card:

So you're admitting your racism openly? Good for you.
That is just the latest example. And a pathetic example as such. How many times has Beavis done the idiotic Blackity Black crap to Thumper?
The focus is rasicm and it's a growing belief that if you judge a person and include their race/skin color it is indeed racist. If it's not would you submit a better word for it?
Do you doubt that Beavis used Barack's skin color to help base his vote, not only to describe the man? I don't. I believe Beavis based his vote in part on Barack's skin color.
How many times has the media used "racism" to describe criminal court system when a white guy and a black guy commit the same crime and the black guy is sentenced harsher?
** Seeing as Stash is the overseer of the Captain Obvious certificate I would submit it's placement be turned over to Jem. I would also submit that I remain in possession of the cape and spandex as I am positive I look way better in them then she would.

So you're saying that you and Beavis are redefining the word to suit your arguments? Rather than use the accepted definition? You're more alike than I originally though.

I'm not redefining anything. I said I voted for Barack Obama because he was the lesser of two evils, and I happened to identify him as a "black guy." This, according to 5th, means I am a racist, which is patently absurd and has nothing to do with what I said.
I completely agree Beavis. I apologize for using you in my previous comment. It was meant more as a snide remark directed at 5th. He seems to enjoy putting words in everyone's mouth, figured I'd turn the tables.
