With Arizona wanting to pass a law that encourages racial profiling, the X next to "Se habla ingles?" doesn't surprise me. That line alone, should tell us all we need to know about these guys. They did do a nice job on the obama pirate photoshop. I lol'ed.
First, there is no defense for this type stupid rhetoric! This idiot does not represent the majority of conservatives. This is just the same, but opposite crap spewed by the Rev. Jeremiah Wright's of left wing fringe elements. I wish these fringe elements would be banned from speaking at these rallies and those that do would just stick to the ideals of the Contract they put together--there is no need to add racist and threatening remarks. I guess that's what happens when there is not central leadership.
I agree that the fringe elements do not represent the views of the majority of Americans and commend you for speaking out against the fringe righties.
LOL do you really need central leadership to tell you don't invite bigots and seditionists to speak at your rallies?
I will repeat, no excuse for this! Every time one of these idiots spew there racist rhetoric, they make conservative minorities, like myself, look like idiots for being a conservative. However, I will not let these few idiots detract me from my conservative Christian ideology. I still believe it’s the foundation of a strong and free nation. Also, I think American is still making great strides in confronting racism and within another generation or two—most of these last vestiges of racists from the "good ole days" will be 6ft under-- where they belong.
I did not find him in the list of nominees. http://www.politics1.com/p2008.htm Which source did you use?

I agree with the contract they have come up with--just frown upon the fringe elements that they allow to represent them in some of the rallies. No conflict here. I am sure you don't support some of the fringe elements on the left, but still consider your self a liberal, right?
which fringe element has repeatedly spoken during a democratic rally and not been condemned or booed?
Nancy Pelosi You missed my point; you have not changed your liberal ideology based on some extremism on the left. Is racism the only criteria you have for being a fringe element? Of course, if you limit you definition to only racism, by default, you will not find many liberals that will voice their true feeling about race--minorities are their core supporters. Surly, you are not expecting anyone to believe that there are no fringe elements on the left?
Since I am an ethnic minority in America, I thought my agreement should be obvious, right? This sad truth is that the some of the strongest bullying that I faced growing up as a kid in Houston was from Blacks and Mexicans--and very few whites. Well, to be honest, there weren't many whites where I grew up. We Indians were the punching bag for everyone, because we did not have large groups back then and were stereotyped as bookworms. Of course, that was 30 years ago and Indians don't put up with that crap nowadays. What's so funny was that after college, whenever I ran into some of those same bullies, I found that I was way bigger than them--and yes, that thought did cross my mind. :grin: American hot dogs, pizza and burgers-- with a good dose of weight lifting-- does wonders for the Indian genes. The point being, I am personally very aware of bigotry, hatred, and violence—and I found out the hard way that these traits are not exclusive to WASP's--as the media try's to portray it.
