OK...so now that we know this original poster was NOT a racial smear...anyone out there want to retract their "hot" posts on how the "middle aged, middle class, white southern Christians" were to blame for this poster as "they are all racists", and they “can’t stand the fact that our President is an African – American”?
I for one do not care that my President is half black.  The color of his complexion does not affect my opinion of the promises being broken and the "business as usual" tactics he employs.  It does not matter to me what races make up his origin.  As our President, he is not supposed to be representing any race or nationality over any other.  

So to the liberals on this board…is there any way you can view what’s happening in our country today without always reverting to “pulling out the race card”?  Just because one doesn’t happen to agree with Mr. Obama does not make that individual a racist.  However, it has been stated that always reverting to “pulling out the race card” does in fact show that person to be racist as they only see things from a race perspective.

Please stop looking at everything this President does as a “black vs. white” issue.  We are all in this together and can work together to resolve any issue.  The key is an open mind.  Care to finally open yours?

Such a classic right wing ploy.

I agree with you in that just because someone didn't vote for, or disagrees with President Obama's policies, or just doesn't like him as a person, is not a racist.

However, your other point of "OK...so now that we know this original poster was NOT a racial smear," is an assumption, and one with little or no meaning, let alone the one that you are trying to give it. 1. So, because the creator of the image is an American Muslin from Palestinian descent automatically excludes him from having racist feelings, thoughts and motivations? 2. The person or persons who took his image, took off the Time's cover, and added "Socialism," is still anonymous, so you can't say for certain s/he or they are not racists. 3. Are you saying no one with racist's views used and distributed the image? 4. WFT is Prison Planet. How about a better source and analysis (see link).

As I posted when i first laid eyes on it, "where's the Batman".  The press picked this up and whipped up the race angle. I wonder why? I think this a good example of the press spinning stories to get ratings.

Do you really expect the lefties to play nice?

Come on, they are the biggest racists there are, ask how many blacks voted for Obama simply because he is half black?

Before I am blasted, I did not want either Obama ( NO Exper, Radical Friends) or McCain ( To Old and values to far to one side)

Over the last 40 years, 30-40% of AA turned out to vote and upwards of 80% was on the Demo ticket.

For Obama , There was a increase of reg voters and over 80% turnout to vote and over 90% of those voted Obama to win the nomination over Hillary.... Think what you want, but I seen these numbers over several places

Relatively the same number of Blacks voted for Clinton, Gore and Kerry.  You can say that new voters came out for Obama because he was black but how many fundalmentalist voted for Bush because he was "born again"
