Joe Wilson Made Millions of Dollars for Telling the President That His A Lie... Now that sounds all planned out and racism.

I didn't get the impression that it had anything to do with Wilson being a racist. It was more like spontaneous combustion.

I don't know if he's racist or not but when i saw the campaign, it kinda looked racist because of all the white republicans just don't like Obama.

I think you'll find a lot of black Republicans don't think very highly of him either.

Unfortunately too many people jump to the conclusion that when a black person and a white person disagree racism is involved.

i see nothing but white republicans
 
If it was just a slip of the tongue, a momentary loss of control that caused Wilson to blurt out, " You Lie," why were all those sitting around him staring straight ahead in smug knowing fashion?

If something like that happens completely unexpectedly, some of his colleagues, would turn around in surprise and look, They all stared knowingly ahead. Was this whole thing planned disrespect?
 
He thought it was the right thing to do at the time, and many respect him for that.
 
Racist? No.
Politically stupid? Yes.
Politically lucrative? Yes.

Aren't politics such sensible fun? :roll:

Yeah its too bad liberals and fellow african-americans rip them apart calling them "uncle toms" and the such. Despicable racism of the left.

Yes & why do you think that I'm not

Joe Wilson is all over YouTube with lots of titles calling him racist and I'm just wondering if y'all think the campaign was racist or not but when i heard that he made millions of dollars for disrespecting the President sound kinda racism.
that's all...

Watch the video about disrespecting the president's campaign and you will see that they're not out there.

I can't believe I had to sit here and listen to Pat Buchanan to figure out what you are referring to? :roll:

Personally I avoid talking heads if I'm looking for in-depth knowledge about political issues. The link I posted earlier has a lot of links on the sidebar that I'm sure will take you to some sites that will show you that they do exist. A site titled National Black Republican Association is a good start .IMO. The whole front page is full of crap they are spouting off. Here is an example:

Is Obama a racist?” by Frances Rice makes the case that President Obama harbors feelings of antagonism and superiority toward white people.

They're obviously endorsing Frances Rice who claims Obama is the racist . :mrgreen:

You really cannot come with a single reason people might oppose the administrations policies other than race? :doh
