Dude, you need to chill out bro. Look, I have read this whole thread and I gotta say that alot of your anger here is being caused by your poor comprehension of what others are saying to you. Maybe you should chill out and re-read some of the posts untill you fully understand what is being communicated to you.

So by your standards, the reason Hillary is losing is because she is a white woman.



Nope. That actually doesn't even resemble how I described Obama.

If you had played correctly, you would have come up with the reason that Hillary is losing is because Hillary exists as that conditioned entity living in this reality. It's very simple, but it appears that your ego can't grasp it. All I was doing was describing what is happening in an abstract eastern philosophical manner. Maybe you should read it again and see if you can make sense of it. If not, then your understanding of it will not exist and you will exist as a completely seperate entity than if you had understood it.

What are you talking about?

People are coming in here and agreeing with this lady and then saying:

"some black people will vote for him just because he's black" and things of that sort.

It's not my reading comprehension that is lacking. I'm trying to get this point across:

We are not talking about him being black helping him win. She said that his color is the reason he is winning.

When you say you are trying to get "his" point across do you mean Obama's?

If that is the point I understand your flaming with some of the posts here.

I submit however that if your point is to try to get Obama's point across you are displaying some of your own bias.

That is ok, just trying to understand.

Actually, that was supposed to say this*.

Sorry. I fixed the error. I can see how that could cause confusion.

Looks more like you Flaming at people in that thread rather than discussion!

Personally I don't care...but the fact is that the other thread was posted on 3/11/08 and yours was posted on 3/12/08...a full day later. However if neither you or the mods want to follow the rules then so be it....

Truth or not, racist or not, there's little doubt it was a stupid remark to make. Good grief, woman, you of all people should have known that.

The OP of this thread has commented in another thread on the same subject in the same forum, which was a day older than this one. Even with less comments, it is the valid thread, so this thread is now closed.
