120. Wow, actually...
Edited on Tue Nov-24-09 12:20 PM by lyonspotter
(thought experiment) ...after reading this rant, I believe you might very well be a racist. You have said some assumptive and hateful things toward black people above, all of whom you do not know. It is presumption at its finest.

(dose... of... own... medicine... above...)

I stated things above in that way to show that you really can't know the motivations and internal thoughts of a person. You have to go on what they argue. The African Americans at the rallies are carrying signs, for example, that express disapproval of policy. Is KRS-One racist when he says that Obama is just a political puppet that works for the banks, Military Industrial Complex, and insurance companies, just as bush did? No, he is expressing a political sentiment. Beyond that, if you have nothing more in the form of evidence, I won't find the argument very convincing.
