Hey, it looks like somebody in the Great Northeast is having a little fun with McCain supporters. Or maybe it’s a McCain supporter sneak attack! Ohh, the possibilities are endless. But here’s the story:
Some Northeast residents who have signs on their lawns expressing support for John McCain have received letters in the mail accusing them of being racists.
McCain, a white Republican senator from Arizona, faces Democrat Barack Obama, a biracial senator from Illinois.
The printed letter reads, in part, “You white racist that sign is offensive. You make sure you vote for Mr. Barack Obama. Get use to a black house in Washington.”
The letter tells the residents to move if they think blacks make the city look bad and that anyone supporting McCain is “a loser, a racist and a sinner.”
“Mr. Barack Obama is the man. It is our time our city our country. So just move racist. Anyway your vote does not count. Obama got it!”
Well, at least the letter got the part about your vote not counting correct.

If we used Martin Luther King’s method of judging people - on the content of their character not the color of their skin - you couldn’t vote for either McCain or Obama since they are just both corrupt politicians, with Obama being the worst kind a Chicago politician. Let’s just say Chicago makes New Jersey look clean when it comes to politics.
Of course this was done by a Republican; Democrats believe in public education and would have used proper punctuation.
You know, crap like this is exactly what I was afraid of. “If you don’t for Obama, your a racist.” The lack of logic behind this line of thought is nothing short of puzzling and scary. The fact that the true form of reverse racism, that of simply not agreeing with someone makes you racist, is sickening.
Dan, as you may recall, I hate both of these idiots running. As R.M. said best, these are both corrupt politicians. To some, McCain is just better than Obama, and to many more in the rest of this city (If simple voter registration is to be sure, some 80%) disagree. It’s sad we’re stuck with these two; it’s even sadder we’re stuck with the fighting in the North East.
May this election stay peaceful for the hope of Philadelphia.
I don’t give two damns if anyone thinks I’m a “racist”. I’d be worried if they thought I was a pedophile! But “racist” is no big deal, even if I was one. And it certainly won’t affect how I vote, if anything, the race card being played makes me MORE determined to vote against Obama.
