These feces are fewer and fewer as more and more Americans wake up to the gutter RATs and their plot to destroy this country.

OK they got me where they want me - a racist just like they are. Their finest has tarnished the hell out of my equality view.

...a professor at UCLA has agreed to draw up a report that proves opponents of the Democrats' health-care bill aren't motivated by a sense of fiscal responsibility or a general distrust of back-room deals, but by race... the National Science Foundation, a government agency under the control of the executive branch... David Sears, a professor of psychology at UCLA, was awarded $52,034 in January 2010 to make this case... The project will seek to provide more evidence that opponents to health care are irrational because their negative opinions of health care "are influenced by racial attitudes," even though the health-care bill has nothing to do with race... Generally, said NSF spokesperson Bobbie Mixon, all proposals go through the same rigorous selection process... But Sears's award is part of NSF's RAPID program... those being considered for RAPID grants bypass the peer review process and are hand-chosen by NSF employees. In this case, by Brian D. Humes of the Division of Social and Economic Sciences, who... referred all requests for comment to Mixon's office... Mixon also said that RAPID awards were not decided based on politics, but simply on the merit of the science. This isn't the first time that an agency under Obama has paid a professor to advocate for health care... Nor is this Sears's first foray... In 1997, he reviewed Byron M. Roth's "Is it really racism?: The origins of white Americans' opposition to race-targeted policies," for the academic journal Political Psychology...

If somehow I must be “racist” if I oppose the asinine nobama-care b.s. so be it. It is a boondoggle making our health care becoming “”Stay healthy or else”. Is there no justice? nobama and his minions deserve JUSTICE!

You’re correct, I’ve loaned my book and didn’t have it to refer to.

It's not science, it's political science. Marxist, communist, totalitarian, corrupt, liberal, political science.
