This race card accusation is bullcrap. Just wanted to put that out there.
The GOP is apparently blind to everything they do, because it was the GOP who injected race into their campaign. The did it in the most unsubtle way possible, and you probably remember it happening. So why are we not talking about when it first happened? Some of you may remember the button...
You remember the button:
"If Obama is president... will we still call it the White House?"
Link to button
Oh, no, this button isn't racist. What it is, is patrotic and unamerican. /snark
Look, McCain campaign is using remarks from the O.J. Simpson. Not because he's trying to defend himself, but he's trying to get the country upset with African Americans. If he continues to use this divisiveness, he may get away with the election.
But these methods are wrong. John McCain has become a disgrace to America. He says that maybe Obama is using the race card then he runs away to avoid being pressed on it. He wants to let the american people decide.
Well, the American people need to see this button. Since the button story I have linked to was written Jun 17, and Obama remarks were either 2 or 3 days ago, at the end of July, I ask you: Who injected race first? June 17th or June 29th?
Race is going to be wherever Obama goes. He has to talk about it in a positive light to get people to rally around him. If you make a button that places doubt on what he would do just because of his race, you are trying to use racism to divide the public.
Then he decides to have his skin-headed companion Steve Schmidt speak for him. Thank God no one relates skin-heads to racists anymore, right?
The point of this short diary is that John McCain is a disgrace. He doesn't care about the country. The country should be trying to move past these things, but someone who wants to lead this country, who voted against MLK Jr Day in his state, then apologized half-assed to african americans, should not be getting this free pass. That button and John Mccain are in the same boat, and people need to discuss it.
John McCain is disgracing our country. He is a dissppointment to anything we thought we could do to restore our stature in America. He is immoral, incoherent, and would probably say anything to win. It's the only way to define that when he says something, he will say the opposite later. The people need to push mcCain's failure as hard as Obama's success.
