Ed, In your original post you said that your cousin called Obama a fxxxxxg nxxxxr. I would agree that your cousin is a racist judging from that statement. How does that lead you to conclude that racism is a major part of the reason for opposition to Obama's policies? I know it is not in my case and I do not believe that I have met a person in The Villages that opposes him because of his race. I oppose him and will do everything I can do to help elect Mitt Romney, not because of race but because I believe that given another term, Obama's policies will destroy this country.

In any case, Obama has been treated with kid gloves compared with the treatment given to George Bush and more recently Sarah Palin by the liberals in this country and on this board. The latest example is a cheap shot by Buggyone referring to Sarah Palin's parenting skills and her daughter Bristol.
