<<Sorry Tee.....pushing 1 race over that of another, is indeed racist. >>
This argument will go nowhere fast if you don't define some terms. What's "pushing" one race over [that of] another mean and what's an example of it?
<<Pushing a (insert any color her) value system is indeed racist.>>
Value systems come in colours?
<< Trying to prevent the passage of civil rights legislation, like the Dems were doing in the 60's, is indeed racist. >>
Who are "the Dems?" All of them? Some of them? Which of them? I would agree that only a racist would attempt to block passage of civil rights legislation. I hope you're not implying that OBAMA tried to block the passage of civil rights legislation.
<<You simply opining that a party is racist, holds no water, regardless of how often you repeat Senator Byrd's name. Oh wait, he still is in the Dem party. My bad>>
I don't "simply opine" on anything. I have valid reasons and I'm not shy about giving them. In this case, the Southern Strategy, a clearly racist strategy for collecting disaffected racists driven out of the Democratic Party when it finally abandoned its tolerance of racism in the Party. The Southern Strategy is the reason I say the GOP is racist, and the significant presence of racists within the Party, many of them former racist Democrats, is the proof. Want more proof? Look at the racism in the McCain campaign, and among its supporters, from the "bimbo ads" to the insistence upon "Hussein" when mentioning the candidate's name.
