Of ocurse I am going to take the opportunity to talk about the Hamas attack on Israel. First, I'd like to talk about my background, or baggage, regarding the country. I have lived in Israel, some years ago. This was not for religious reasons; I spent several months there working on a movie. During pre-production, weeks of location scouting and shooting the movie, I was all over the country, and spent a fair amount of time in the West Bank, where we also shot. This included a lot of places that normal tourists would not see, including predominantly Arab areas such as East Jerusalem, the Arab quarter of the old city, Ramla and the southern part of Jaffa, which is predominantly Arab. It also included heavily Orthodox areas like Mea Shearim. I dealt with Israeli Arabs, Palestinians and Bedouins. Here are a few things I believe I learned there: First of all, the Palestinians I knew were perfectly normal people with the same interest in living a safe, secure

And again, your race card makes you look childish and moronic. Maybe if you could find one reason why Republicans are racist, I'd give you credit, but alas, you cannot.
The dems however, they are the true racists. Always have been, always will.
When Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights act, he turned to the people around him and said that he had just given away the south for a generation. Unfortunately, he was right, and the willingness of the Republicans to feed off of the lowest form of human maggots led us to Reagan, Bush, Newt Gingrich, Tom Delay, Dick Armey and all of the other bottom feeding scum that have manipulated the white racists in this country to support them.
But, times (and demographics) are changing, buddy. Time for people like you to start paying the price of your hatred and greed. The party's over.
"
Specifics please. This is no time for blanket statements. What specifically about the Southern strategy was racist? This is Nixon we are talking about right? The same guy who received a public endorsement from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in 1956 and the guy who started affirmative action?
"When Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights act, "
Passed by Republicans.
"that have manipulated the white racists in this country to support them."
Do tell! Specifics.
Didn't I already tell you that the switch in the South wasn't due to racism at all, but due to economics? As the South became more prosperous, their trades naturally led them to support the Republican party. At least, that is what historians and political experts say.
"Time for people like you to start paying the price of your hatred and greed. "
What? What did I do? I hate no one, not even your beloved Obama. Greed? I can only serve one master, and He is greater than all worldly possessions.
Strike, Strike, Strike, and Strike. Four strikes, you're out.
If you don't want to be lumped in with this bunch that's great. Denounce them. You probably won't. Newt Gingrich just backed up the misleading nonsense Sarah Palin said about "death panels" that would decide if her son was worth treating.
Perhaps the right are not all racists as you say. I'll grant you that Derek. But you must admit the right uses exploits bigotry to get votes.
Horton, and that wasn't racist. That was about a murderer who killed people on a leave from prison, a policy Dukakis supported. Perfectly reasonable argument. Why is it that whenever someone who isn't white is pictured negatively, Democrats cry racist? "Oh, it couldn't be because he raped and murdered people, it is because he is black!"
So that ad is racist but Obama saying things like "The white man's greed" and Sotomayor's "wise-latina" comment aren't? You head has to be sooooo far up your . . . Never mind.
"Denounce them."
Anyone who is a racist is a moron. I've said that from the beginning. However, anyone who calls a person racist simply to try and gain political leverage, not only is a racist, but is a liar. So be careful what you accuse people of. You better have some solid evidence, say, that they supported slavery, opposed almost every piece of civil rights legislation, and members started the KKK, to call a group racist. Oh hey, look, that is the Democratic party.
"But you must admit the right uses exploits bigotry to get votes."
If you show me how they do then I will gladly admit that. Until them, I''m going to stick with liberals are far more racist as they are the ones seeing race everywhere. For some reason they don't get that it isn't about a bunch of different people getting along. There is no reason why we should have to get along, as we are all the same.
Democrats-Everything they do is bad or evil
Republicans-OK, good
Really, it's almost like you're a programmed automaton.....or member of a cult
and it also gets quite predictable and boring.
I know....you'll register this as a personal attack......
Again, predictable and boring.
Green Eagle is thinking of starting his own death panel. It will be sort of like those citizens' grand juries that are finding Obama guilty of treason, only staffed with muslim communist fascists.
If you'd like to submit a resume, there are a few spaces still open.
Not true. I give credit when credit is due, but more often than not, Dems are in the wrong spot.
"Republicans-OK, good"
Not even close. I've criticized Bush plenty of times, along with other Republicans.
Conservatives are almost always in the right spot, liberals are almost always off. So party affiliation doesn't matter.
"I know....you'll register this as a personal attack......"
No, i registered it as off-mark, as I expect most of your comments to be.
