    Yes, in Today's political world, every time a democrat loses an argument they make the racism claim. That all conservatives are racist and the only explanation for our disagreement with ANY policy is based on race. Obama wants to spend a trillion dollars on the South African Teetsie Fly and republicans object, it's because we are racist. If Obama wants to Flood the Mississippi River with Coca Cola and Republicans object it's because we are racist. No matter how absurd the policy, how expensive the policy, or how inadequate the policy if Republicans object it's due to race. The fact that the Republicans opposed many of these same policies in the Clinton and Carter Administrations have no bearing on the case, it all comes down to race. And that my Friend is why the liberals are losing more and more support, because they have lost the race argument, we have a Black President, and took that crutch away from them He could not have been elected with simply the Black vote it took millions of whites to get him elected.

    Race baiting is a common tactic, but it's actually considered a racist act. The biggest problem is that it devalues the word racist. Even if people are racist, the frequent use of the word is actually counterproductive. If you use it with the moderate racsit, they will push back rather than learn. Some moderate racist are ignorant not hateful. If you educate them in a proper way, they will change their views, but if you attack them, like call them racist, that would generate hate. This shows those who use the word frequently to be really really stupid.

    Also I found that those who use the word racist are often racist themselves. People use that word to say I am better than you. Well that is the base of racism.

    And what is with some of the counter arguements here. Listing racist events does not have anyhting to do with the question.

    Lawman, there is a wolf, doesn't mean there is a wolf nearby. Look at you own assumption.

    The little boy want attention just like liberals. The little boy and the wolf should be kept around.

    As Rush said He will save millions in taxes going to Florida over New York. That dam Rush is a genius.

    Of course...

    They have rendered the TERM meaningless.

    If a WHITE MAN disagrees with OBAMA - then... he's a RACIST...

    If a BLACK GUY didn't like Reagan's POLICES - he was exercising his right to disagree - politically.

    If any color cop, pulls over a SPEEDER in ARIZONA... and they look HISPANIC... and he asks to see their ID, the COP is RACIST.

    ME, a CITIZEN because my grand-dad came in at ELLIS ISLAND, payed the fee, took the classes, found a SPONSOR and PASSED THE TEST - to become a LEGAL CITIZEN.... If I'm pulled over for YUCKS... and I don't show my DRIVER'S LICENSE, REGISTRATION and PROOF OF INSURANCE, *I* may be spending some time inside a POLICE station.

    Unless and until the word is applied to FARRAKHAN, JACKSON, WRIGHT or SHARPTON... the WORD is MEANINGLESS.

    When you've got NOTHING... CLAIM RACISM. Even LIBERAL are figuring out that "THE WORD THAT CRIED WOLF - " isn't working any more.

    Yes and they are doing it more to get a rise out of Conservatives and to draw attention off Obama's failures than to actually debate racism. The reason the argument is waning is because they are wearing out racism as an issue. Even now they complain that Yahoo is not paying "enough" attention to it. Too much crying wolf.

    It doesn't pack much of a punch any more. It's always been a lie, and it's been thrown out there so many times that the only ones who continue to believe conservatives are racists were never terribly bright in the first place.

    Emmett Till

    Born Emmett Louis Till

    July 25, 1941

    Chicago, Illinois, U.S.

    DiedAugust 28, 1955 (aged 14)

    Money, Mississippi, U.S.

    Cause of death: Murder

    EthnicityAfrican American

    Emmett Louis "Bobo" Till (July 25, 1941 – August 28, 1955) was an African American boy from Chicago, Illinois, who was murdered[1] at the age of 14 in Money, Mississippi, a small town in the state's Delta region, after reportedly whistling at a white woman. The murder of Emmett Till was noted as one of the leading events that motivated the American Civil Rights Movement.[1] The main suspects were acquitted, but later admitted to the murder.

    Till's mother insisted on a public funeral service, with an open casket so as to show the world the brutality of the killing:[2] Till had been beaten and an eye gouged out, before he was shot through the head and thrown into the Tallahatchie River with a 70-pound cotton gin fan tied around his neck with barbed wire. His body was in the river for three days before it was discovered and retrieved by two fishermen.

    Racism DOES exist, but not all violence, criticism, hatred of an individual, policies, etc... come from that directive.

    I'm not even remotely racist, but I don't like Obama because of his passionless delivery, his ideology, his smugness, and comments he's made about my personal religious beliefs.

    So Liberals are actually hurting minorities with these labels, for instance, like the Obama Joker picture. Every time they come up with something like that, they lose credibility and race relations are set back.
