There is an important difference between stating that every conservative is a racist and pointing out the unprecedented disrespect Obama has endured. Surely you see that. Racism is very likely an element of the over-the-top disrespect for some number of conservatives. None of that paints you with the same brush.
I don't like blanket condemnations, that is what was made. The OP didn't state "some Republicans" or "many conservatives" or "far right", .................
I'm not arguing that there has been no uncalled for, no unfounded, no over the top disrespect for Obama. I have never supported that behavior. I don't like or respect some of Obama's actions or policies. Do you see me calling liberals/democrats the equivalent of being "racists" (choose which ever word you like)?
Quite frankly, to my way of thinking, the OP's statement was every bit as disrespectful.
Now please excuse me, I have guns to clean. hehe
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.
