Oh so to you an American in this culture is automatically racist? That says about all that needs to be said.
On a side note Obama went from 269 E.C. votes to 217 E.C. votes in 6 days. The debate was terrible for Obama.

These types of speeches aren't partisan nor do they divide our country...
Of course, we repubs would never say or do anything partisan... They have America's best wishes in mind... I mean, there's no way the Senate Minority Leader would ever vow to make Obama a one-term President, right???

Biden hasn't been interviewed in 5 months. This should be fun to watch.

We have discussed this before. Yes, all Americans, and pretty much all people. Some of us recognize it more, and try to counter it more. That's pretty much the difference.

Well I'm convinced that one Brow is actually a chatterbot. Whomever programed it was attempting to frustrate people by employing a number of logical fallicies and loose reasoning. If all other inputs fail to register, it simply spits out 'racist'. As a machine it has no sense of humour, or tact and has difficulty recognizing sarcasm.
Rather than being frustrated by onebrow I will instead be awed by the skills of whomever programed it. To help clear up the confusion I will from now on call it ELIZA, to honor the first chatterbot.
I am now ignoring ELIZA. Thank jazzfanz for the ignore switch.

Dear franklin,
I'm sorry that Cooperman had his feelings hurt because he doesn't think he gets enough respect for all that money he made.
-Non-conservatives who read that letter.

Letting Pelosi and Reid go at it is not indicative of being a centrist, just a lazy/incompetent leader.

My apologies for misreading you and being rude.
It's so hard for me to see things through your filter that I'm having a hard time coming up with a response to the way I see Obama. I would love nothing more than a controlling s.o.b like FDR to push the reset button in this country but I see absolutely none of that in Obama. What you see as compromise, I see as a commie selling out to big insurance, Wall Street, and enviro special interest money. His command style preferences are doing everything for the connected businesses and nothing for labor. That H.C. bill was meant to make American businesses more competitive because they think our wages are too high relative to foreigners. Someone has to pay for it though, and it isn't the mega-corporations. We wouldn't be having this higher taxes discussion if they crammed that through in the first bill. If they had then Obama would be campaigning on his record rather than "just give me four more years".
It's true that I don't always spell out my reasoning. However, I don't think you're capable of pointing out logical fallicies generally, much from me based on your posting history. You're very good at making bold statements, but very poor at backing them up. To some people, that makes you seem smart. I'm not one of them.
I have freely acknowledged my humor-impairment in the past. I find your pretense of superiority pretty funny, though. Was that intentional or sarcasm?
By the way, that's a great way to dodge responsibilityfor your own words and attitudes. Surely, seeing racism must be my problem. Very few people are really racist. Sure, they pay equally qualified blacks less money. They steer equally qualified blacks into less fruitful jobs. Yes, there are empirical studies verifying both of these, were the resumes in question were identical. But that's no reason to think racism is involved, because all of these people think blacks should have equal rights. It's only racism when overt discrimination is involved. I know that because a bunch of white people tell it to me regularly.
So, by all means, don't consider how your own emotions and reactions to race generally may be shaping your opinion of Obama specificlly. You can't be at fault, it's everyone judging you by your words that's mistaken. Just like the poor, picked on boy at this school, taken out of class as an act of bullying by some oversenswitive girl. he's the real victim, just like you.

Thank JazzFanz for the ability to loudly proclaim the unworthiness of the people you have on ignore. It's much harder to identify self-important, immature ignoramuses without them leaving such messages.
I didn't interpet anything you wrote as being rude (that does along with being humor-challenged, at least for me). I accept your apology, though.
I don't think he was ever a "commie". What you see as someone who was radical and sold out, I see as someone who has always been further left in rhetoric than in proposal, and has been that was since his state senate days. I remeber reading various blogs four years ago saying that Obama had been, and would continue to be, centrist. Although, I many of those people have been disappointed over his record on civil liberties, which is thoroughly rightist.
