Over the last 3 years there has been a move to redefine racist into "A non-racist who points out obvious racism". Apparently to these right wingers, when you point out someobeody's racism, you are the racist, not the person who said the racist crap. You sir, are a racist. 
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid. Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis. 
Yeah it's always the racists who protest the loudest when you point out their racism. Just like a Facebook exchange I had a while back with a guy who took major offense at the suggestion that he was a bigot, and then went on to say that he doesn't like to associate with "known homosexuals" or anyone promoting gay rights. If the shoe fits...

If the shoe fits... He probably didnt want to associate with "known" homosexuals so he could keep his trysts clandestine. It always seems to be the ones who are uncertain about their sexuality who make a song and dance about it. You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid. Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis. 
I have to say that as much as I think Obama dropped the ball on major issues like the Bush tax cuts, I have unedning respect for his ability to take all of this racist hogwash in stride. I probably would have lost my cool many times over.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
Perhaps, but when they're making racist comments I think it leaves no doubt.

A few months old but close enough.

Obama is a citizen of this country regardless of where he was born. His mother was an American citizen. Barack would have been a citizen of the United States from his mother.
This is why McCain was eligible to be president even though he was born in Panama. Citizenship transfers through one or both parents.
