Is the charge of Racism becoming meaningless

Too many supporters of the President see the race and policies of the President as one in the same, which it is not. We need to be free to argue about the policies of the administration and keep the person out of the argument.

I emphatically disagree with you phantsy. I do not care what color he is, I do not believe that socialism is right for our country. When we were against it during Clintons reign, was that racism as well? We have a right to disagree, I think the prejudice displayed is your own.

If you were black...would you be saying the term racism is overused? first of all, I really can not say now can I? However, my family came from gypsys and you want to talk about prejudice. So I really think that argument is out the window. You are absolutely entitled to your opinion. People were not againsts everything the cClintons did either. I was I didn't hear anyone call welfare socialism either I do call it socialism, thats what it is http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/socialism Main Entry: so·cial·ism Pronunciation: \'so-sh?-?li-z?m\ Function: noun Date: 1837 1 : any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods [b] But his policies are thwarted because of his race. I say that with much certainty. [/b] coming from a gypsy family, I am amazed at your mind reading abilities.

It hit me last night when I was watching The Factor and Rev Al Sharpton told Bill O'Reilly that people protesting at the TEA Parties were Racist because of signs like "Take Our Country Back". I grew up during the "Long Hot Summers" of the 60's and attended a racially divided High School. Several of my close friends were blacks. They were my friends because we shared similar interests and values. Again in college I had some Black friends, Jewish friends, Asian friends and white friends. I choose my friends based on interests and values. This is why I am so upset when I hear the charge being thrown around over every little disagreement someone has with another person. I fear that we will get a backlash because people will begin to see everything in terms of race and not on the merits of the issue.

yeah like i dont understand the whole potlic thing, but once he became president you got to how alot of white people really are. to me its where in the hell this came from? to me i see he knows how the middle class and lower class have to struggle in this world, and to me its not black or white its both who is struggling in this world. here i am disable been for 12 yrs and i always find myself trying to figure how to pay that bill or this one. specaily when it comes to doctors bill i know people who are white and black who cant get health insurance because it cost way too much. even knew a guy who lost his battle with cancer because his medicare would get max out from treatments it is so sad so many still want to use the racest card for so much still today in 2010. to me anyone in this great country can be whatever they want they are to lazy to go out and work for it.

What I have found is that when you start to win a policy argument or use facts to press your case people who support the President will use the charge of Racism or will bring up the argument that it has to be done for the Children.
