I fully expect an ignorant and disingenuous outcry from anti-tax TEA-party idiots on the right (which includes lots of average means white people who mainly can’t get over the fact the President of the U.S. is a black dude).[/quote]
I definitely feel that there is a racist element in the right, especially in the lower social economic strata of right wing Whites — people who would benefit greatly from Obama policies but who are vociferous opponents of Obama.
It’s a controversial issue so people don’t want to face it. Right wing leaders know this and they play to the fears of their base quite well.
But the demographics are such that progressives will win the day. It’s only a matter of time.
Conservatives want to preserve the status quo and they always had to be dragged along kicking and screaming. That’s the way it’s been and that’s the way it will remain.[/quote]
I knew you would be the type to throw the R card in the equation. For some, winning, is at all costs…
