68. Is this a rhetorical question?
Can you read? Or haas your messiah clouded your ability to reason?
ad hominem

Of course not, you fucking tool.
ad hominem

I am so fucking done with this place and it's Obama KoolAid drinkers.
ad hominem


Obama is doing his best to destroy the Democratic party. Hope he's happy in November when a sure win (which we dems should have) turns into a huge loss.
Care to support your claim with some evidence, data, and/or analysis. Let me show you why this is an minimum requirement. Say I change two words in the above statement and juxtaposition it next to yours:

Clinton is doing his best to destroy the Democratic party. Hope she's happy in November when a sure win (which we dems should have) turns into a huge loss.

There is no way for anyone to determine which one of us is correct. Where as if you provided some data and analysis with your claim that was specific to Obama then I wouldn’t be able to appropriate you cantankerous claim based rhetoric.


He did not say that. He said, like it or not, there ARE white people who will not vote for Obama.
And whether you want to admit it or not, it's the truth,
Did he say that people *shouldn't* vote for Obama because he's black.


If it was just a statement of Fact as you propose then what is the purpose of saying it? Why is the head democrat and super delegate in the state of PA providing cover for some white conservatives to vote for someone other than Barrack because he is black. And because it is posited as a statement of fact (instead of opinion) it offers “objective” cover for racism.
