The "Uniter" stereotyping 'white people'

[clambake]

Considering the blowup over McCain's comment about AQ, it's only fair to criticize Obama's comments as well...

do you really want someone that's even less knowledgeable to take over the biggest blunder of modern times.

how many lives and trillions has been spent by obama? how many extremist have been created by obama's actions?

[jochhejaam]

I'm guessing all of us know Obama didn't mean all white people are racists. Right?

I'm not exactly sure what he was saying...how would you interpret it?


Is there any data to back up his perception of the "typical white person"? Of course there's not, and I'm confounded by the stupidity of that statement.
It was both senseless and counterproductive.

It doesn't bother me a bit personally, but geez, you'd think he'd be smart enough to refrain from remarks that carry with them the potential to alienate and polarize.
He didn't help himself at all with that one.


The perception of him as being a "great unifer" has taken a beating, and he has brought most of it upon himself.

No, I don't want Obama to take over, which is why I won't be voting for him.

I don't know about lives, but Obama sure as has spelled out his budgetary plans should he be elected president, and those sure as aren't cheap.

Extremists created? Are you trying to insinuate that Bush created the idiots that the US military is blowing away daily in Afghanistan and Iraq? Those people already hated us.

On the bright side, they are flocking to Iraq and getting in the express lane to their 72 virgins instead of sneaking into our country to spring another 9/11.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Ehhhh, either three of the remaining candidates are going to spend a load of money. The only thing is a president alone can't enact socialized health care. Meanwhile, any idiot that gets elected can continue the war and sap the country's (borrowed) money.

so you live in ray's basement?

Obama say his Mama is a typical white person with typical reactions to certain types of people.

Typical bubbas and red-necks like Aggie, Yoni, Clanny react typically to a Obama, or a white woman trying to be President.

Where's the problem, except a false one created and hyped to by Fox's Repug surrogates and rabble rousers? The rabble are TYPICALLY roused.

Sounds like Beavis and Butthead saying "he said "typical white woman"" heh heh heh

Typical rubbish. That "typical white woman" was his
Grandmother, who he acknowledged raised him and
LOVED him. Who he has previously thrown under the
bus and now he says she was just a typical white woman.
Funny thing happened on the way to the forum. He,
Obama, carries her DNA in him. So guess that makes
him half a typical White man. And everyone knows
white people hate everyone except other whites. Just
read above.

[smeagol]

this forum is filled with "typical white people" imho

I'm white and latino.

Am I typical?

You, OTOH, are white and pretty typical.

[smeagol]

when you get your green card i'll listen to you whitey

I've had it for 3 1/2 years, gringo.

I'm going for citizenship in two more years

I'm not against Obama because he's black or Hillary because she's a female, I'm against them because their platform sucks and will mean higher taxes for all of us (even the unemployed idiots such as yourself).

Socialism sucks, and it's what they have both based their campaign platforms on.

Try reading sometime instead of being a stereotypical little idiot.

How can you be so sure McCain won't raise taxes if he's elected to? He was against the bush tax cuts for years, and it seems to me, only voted to keep them because he wants those wishy washy repub votes who are scared to death at being taxed, even while he adamantly refuses to back out of the most wasteful spending project of the 21st century.

I'm curious, because you have such a strong opinion about it, have you ever lived in a socialist country or a country that has a socialist-democratic government (like Canada)?

I seem to remember a prominent Republican saying, "NO, NEW TAXES!"

I wonder how that went for him.

[Doc Jerome]

How many good men get falsely accused and incessantly portrayed as a racist, expatriot in the media by das ly machinations crafted by all U.S. media outlets? It is clear that reporters, editors, producers and writers lack the courage to go beyond the grotesque and superficial, choosing rather, to elevate and propagate specious stories that appeal to the basest instincts of humanity.

I have, several. And taxes are sky-high, regulation is out
of this world and in most cases, except shortly after WWII,
prices are outrageous. And in one country I am well
acquainted with the United Kingdom (England) for those
that want national health, they are closing hospitals, waits
for medical treatment are insane. I will take my chances
any old day with a Capitalist country.

If you think they are so great, look at Castro's Cuba,
when he needed a doctor he had him imported from
Spain.

[ChumpDumper]

This thread is pretty typical of white people.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

The only thing this thread really needs is an in-depth look into the structural integrity of various types of girders.

[ChumpDumper]

And floor systems.

[smeagol]

funny, i thought you ahd taken the us's money and run back to sudamerica to laugh over mojitos and books by stalin translated into spanish from the original russian

Don't worry.

This is just one more thing you are wrong about me.

Incidentely, we don't drink mojitos in Argentina.

Moreover, I did not go to a generic country, "sudamerica".

Lastly, I did not take anybody's money. Actually, I work for a French bank, so if anything, it is "french" money I'm taking.

It's scary how well you fit the "ignorant American" sterotype.

PS: And what does the Stalin comment have to do with anything?

You went from the UK to Cuba?

I mean, come on!!

Anyway, as bad as you say the England is . . . have you seen how the U.S. Dollar weighs against the LB Sterling?

The Euro is also stronger than the U.S. Dollar.

Exactly how is Socialism killing the Europeans?

As for taxes, . . . we all pay them. And, we're not going to be paying any less, regardless of who gets elected.

It's a constant in life. We pay taxes for the government to work. No taxes, no government. That will never change. And, to think that it will, is just ludicrous.

Long waits in the hospitals at England, there's been people that wait for days to get serviced here. Days.

[Holt's Cat]

Who gives a ? This country is ed. Maybe Barack will make us feel a little better as this land circles the drain. That's about it.

[Yonivore]

I, and most Americans, are paying less in taxes (as a percentage of our income) than we were in 2000.

It's a constant in life. We pay taxes for the government to work. No taxes, no government. That will never change. And, to think that it will, is just ludicrous.

I just don't think we should pay the government to do a job they aren't cons utionally authorized to do and, that we should be doing as citizens.

Long waits in the hospitals at England, there's been people that wait for days to get serviced here. Days.

There are people that come here, from countries with socialized medicine. Tell me about America's inferior health care system when the river starts flowing the other way.

PeeWee, I hate to break to you, but the topic was
Socialist countries. Both England and Cuba are socialist,
do you understand now.

I also hate to break the news to you, the Euro is now
more valuable against the dollar. Which proves little,
unless you are in the money trading business and
before you get all excited, yes I know it makes oil more
expensive for us. But you know how much they are
paying in England for a gallon of gas with all those good
old Euro's? Yesterday I was told about 10 pounds for
the equivalent of one gallon of our gas. They said we are
dead lucky to paying only 3 dollars a gallon. He didn't
indicate how what the exchange rate is for Euro's with
Pounds. You can look it up.

You say people wait a long time here. Want a little
first hand experience. Myself. I had to make a trip to
the emergency room a little while ago. During the
two days there, I received a CAT scan, MRI/MRA,
Ultra-sound, numerous blood test. This will not happen
in countries with National Health Schemes. One other
little item for your list of great things in Socialist
countries, many in England are now BUYING their own
health insurance policies. And one other little item,
their Social Security has a private side to it. Look it
up on Google, I haven't the time nor inclination to explain
that to you. And taxes, kiddo, you have no idea
what the folks in Europe pay in taxes. None what so
ever.

As for our taxes, I doubt you work, but for those that
do get ready for some big tax INCREASES if the dimms
stay in power and elect their nominee. Because they
are going to let Bush's tax decreases expire and more
than likely increase taxes to pay for their most wonderful
programs.

But live in ignorance, like you do now. I would tell
you to ask your school teachers but they more than
likely would tell you everything is caused by global
warming.

Europe has collapsed under the weight of heavy taxation.

Their peoples are clamoring for help.

There are riots every day in Europe due to the injustices of taxation.

Quit being such an alarmist.

And, this crap about Dems destroying the economy because they'll tax the out of you . . . same every election cycle.

Y'all need to come up with something original.

By the way, my taxes have gone up, not down. I got a break this year because my daughter was born, but even then, I paid more taxes this year than last.

[peewee's lovechild]

Not true, at all.

I paid more taxes this year.
And, that's that I had a kid and had a tax credit for her!!!

I just don't think we should pay the government to do a job they aren't cons utionally authorized to do and, that we should be doing as citizens.

Such as??

And, how were the people that wrote the Cons ution over 200 years ago supposed to foresee what needs the country/states have in the future?

There are people that come here, from countries with socialized medicine. Tell me about America's inferior health care system when the river starts flowing the other way.

Provide some proof please.

There are stories all the time here in San Antonio about people who have to wait over 10 hours and sometimes upto or over a day to get somekind of service.

In my hometown, it was even worse.
