I’m kinda’ at a loss here. How does obama-ites equate the McCain ad to racism? By comparing a black person to whites? I just plain don’t see it!

Have you forgotten Obama is half white? ;-)

Their convoluted arguments were that McCain was implying that ObamaOsama was being presented as a black person who steals white women away from white men, something on that order. It really took a suspension of reality, to quote the hilda beast,to see the ad in that light.

Well, first off.. the Left is not interested in discourse. Leftists are interested in "issues" that are not issues -- as David Horowitz has explained. "Issues" are weapons. The issue and the only issue for leftists is IMO "Bring it all down, man."

This white women "issue" is connected to Tennessee, I believe.

The Republican Party ran a television advertisement where a white woman, played by Johanna Goldsmith, talks about meeting [black candidate] Ford, who was unmarried at the time, at "the Playboy party." The ad was denounced by many people, including former Republican Senator and Secretary of Defense under Bill Clinton, William Cohen, who called it "a very serious appeal to a racist sentiment." [from an Internet source]

If McCain declares the sky blue at least 30% of people polled would say it’s a racist comment. That response is hard-wired into a percentage of the population.

Any time a white person criticizes any aspect of a black person, it is racist. Got that?
