Being Jewish, I understand bigotry , my point is that everything is not bigotry.. that is a card that gets played much to often, and I fear that, like the boy who cried wolf, it will be meaningless when the ugly head of bigotry really does appear. Most don't care that he is black, or 1/2 black.. , what ever.. they fear him because he was the most liberal Democrat in Congress, and now, he is the President. His spending.. giving money to anyone and everyone, is what they fear. I did not think it was possible to outspend Bush.. and most Democrats kept pointing to the debt clock.. where the hell are you guys now?
But bigotry... Na, just the same KKK mentality folks that have always been around, and damn few of them. The rest, nothing at all to do with black/white/green/ red/yellow... et al. Just no Democrat is going to be good enough.. not even Leiberman..
Bob, did you even watch the clip you posted?
It made no reference to his liberal views or his spending record. It entirely concentrated on portraying Obama as a closet Muslim and implying that Islam is synonymous with terrorism.
Bigotry is not limited to skin tone, in fact, the origin of the term was purely in reference to
religious intolerance.
The topic is the video clip, the video clip is nothing BUT bigotry.
"A bigot is a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices. The correct use of the term requires the elements of obstinacy, irrationality, and animosity toward those of differing devotion." - Wikipedia
