spinkie, you have stood firm on the idea that most people that disagree with Obama is racist. All one needs to do is go back and read just about anything you posted during the election year or after he was elected . I went back and was seriously intending to link to a post or thread just like you told Ellen to do, but I figure it would just be easier to tell anyone interested to go back to anytime during election year in either the racism forums or the politics forums and read for them selves.
OK so which is it? First you and Cherry stated we said "all" now it is "most", when I think you both know we were talking about "many"!
