Obama is the great hype machine

[Allan from Fallbrook]

drunkle: Point taken, and my apologies.

That being said, I would also opine that you are somewhat hung up on the insinuation, and missing the larger point. That point? That the left is indeed pulling a mea culpa when it comes to white guilt, and giving anyone of color a hall pass – if they toe the rhetorical line, of course.

Are the Republicans guilty of similar behavior? You bet. I am not so naive as to argue that somehow those on the reactionary right are any better. They’re not.

So we’re clear: I am not some gun-toting right winger. While conservative, I didn’t check my brain at the door. My issues are largely centered on the extremes of both parties hijacking the discussion and polarizing this country to the point that not only is the center lost, but so is the ability to maintain a civil discussion.

As I said, I am not here to apologize for gold. I got the gist of where he was going, just as you got the insinuation cloaked within. I very much object to his vilification of liberals. I would substitute left wing for liberal.

drunkle: Just saw your edits 1 and 2.

1. Yes, the standards are different depending on your skin. No argument from me on that one.

2. Yes, the standards are different depending on your wealth and/or social standing. Yep, I also know it is not right, and would accept any just criticism.

Not to be a wise-ass, but isn’t that what you and I are doing right now?

i know you’re not stupid. that’s why i’m posting and arguing with you rather than gold.

the insinuation is important; turning your other cheek doesn’t work. nonsense should be addressed and taken head on. sometimes i dont. sometimes i’m lazy. but not today.

“white guilt” is a whole study unto itself. i’ll let that lie for now. i just got lazy again. suffice for now, whites are not the only ones who can see injustice, blacks are not the only ones that suffer injustice.
