zylon: I would agree that his chances of winning can be represented in the set of real numbers.
He recently had a huge jump in the polls among women. When you really look at him, you can see the Obama smear campaign is just lies.

finnley wren: Yeah, your own opinion is indeed fascinating. I was looking for a more authoritative source claiming "the modern interpretation has no racial overtones."
Still waiting.
I don't necessarily agree with the apologetics, but here is one line of reasoning.
You two have fun now.

Sorry phaildo, not engaging you in your trollololol games.
finnley wren: I'll do it for you:

You coild say the same thing for the word cracker. Someone's misuse of the word is not my fault.
To say that "cotton to" has no racial overtones at all now, is just as incorrect on your part. Sure you are proud it was coined in the 16th century, but over the years it has taken on a bit of the flavor.

Regardless, it seems a term civilized people (and politicians) might want to stay away from. I thought this was fascinating from the Wikipedia link:
"Several United States politicians—including presidential candidates John McCain, John Kerry, Michele Bachmann, and Mitt Romney—have been criticized by civil rights leaders, the media, and fellow politicians for using the "tar baby" metaphor"
Failed presidential candidates, all.

Again, Phil, your "opinions" have been proven wrong time and time again, from misquoting people yesterday, to being "mistaken" about the educational levels obtained by certain celebrities last week. So the lesson is, one must never take your word for anything.

That is simply bullshit. I pointed it out for you a few times yesterday. The misquote was a few minor words that changed nothing.
You just kept focusing on that and avoiding the reality that I smacked you in the ass while exposing Obama using his own words.

Meh. Just more fabricated outrage, in my opinion. Perhaps, that is the reason to avoid the term. As a child, I heard it used a number of times as a racial slur by the adults around me. Then again, I also heard brazilnuts being referred to as "nigger toes".

Not sure what race you are, however I'm white, and therefore in no position to determine what is "fabricated outrage" versus what is real.
So if there are words or phrases that some folks find belitting or demeaning, I'm happy not to use them. Seems the civilized thing to do.

I find that hard to believe, unless you referred to "black folks" or something like that, which would seem to me to be a little diminutive at the very least, though not necessarily racist.
But I'd really need to see your whole quote to make a judgement.

Peabody Energy bused 148 miners to Romney’s speech and compensated the miners for their time.
This is what I don't get. It's like these groups are wasting all this money astroturfing for Willard when we already have a perfectly fine Republican in the White House.

Hard to imagine that anyone in such a dangerous business as miners would vote for a party not only anti-labor, but also one who wishes for more deregulation.
I suspect the miners were laughing their asses off, all the way to the bank.

But I'd really need to see your whole quote to make a judgement.
It was a long time ago on some other site. I don't recall exactly what I said, but it was as innocuous as what you had said. Probably someone had seen the phrase "black folks" used in a dismissive way and decided to extend that to the word "folks" all by itself.
My point is that there IS manufactured outrage. Sure, the world of racial, sexist, and other slurs is very dynamic, with new slurs being born. I bet if some ass started using "attractive and successful African-American" in a derogatory context, it might become a new slur. But we shouldn't allow words to become "wrong" because someone misunderstands them and thinks someone else might be offended. That's what people are complaining about when complaining about political correctness.
"Tar baby" is a great example. If you read the story, it doesn't have anything to do with race. It's not a baby at all. Yet somehow the term is suspect. Why not anything to do with dark colors? If there are electricity problems, is it racist to say blackout or brownout?
On the other hand, the gay community has managed to take back the word "queer."

I recall Pat Buchanan on MSNBC talking about how "black folks" are very good at running and sports, which caused a small broo-ha-ha a few years ago. Of course, Buchanan is well-known for edging over the line of what is acceptable and what is not.
And I guess I'm just too busy to worry about what is "manufactured" outrage and what isn't. But like I said, if there are words or phrases that some folks find demeaning, I won't use them. "Midget" was a once acceptable term, but now they prefer "little people." Why should I care what they want to be called?
In terms of minority communities "taking back words" such as queer (and blacks with the "N" word) I confess I do have a problem with that. There are no words that should be acceptable to some, but not to others. I find blacks and gays who use those terms as low-rent as whites and heterosexuals who do.

Or just skip the categorization. Their height or color isn't their identity. Why call them midgets or even little people anyway? Just refer to them by something they do or are, like porn star.
Amusingly, I understand that the term "Native American" is disliked by many of the people it gets applied to. Apparently some feel like it's a goofy and incorrect distinction and that anyone born here ought to qualify as Native American, including me and perhaps Obama.

Your linked page states: "The question is often asked 'is the Tar Baby a racist stereotype?' - but rather than asking the question that way, let's ask instead: 'can the Tar Baby be a racist stereotype?'"
Translation: Is it possible to manufacture outrage from this? Yes, certainly.
It also has a picture of a painted (concrete?) statue clothed black kid eating a hunk of watermelon. Yes, that statue seems exactly like an offensive racial stereotype. It has nothing to do with the tar baby in the story, which was tar, not human, did not have clothes, and did not eat watermelon. My guess is that some stupid shit made the racist statue and then tried to give it credibility or respectability by trying to associate it with the tar baby story.

kswheels: Bush may have been an idiot (and he was) but he was a good politician. Bush knew how to connect to his audience and make them want to vote for him. Mitt Romney is absolutely terrible at running for president.
Obama is better at running for President than being President, but he's better than RMoney at both.

Yes, but don't let that in any way make you laugh at the lecture you're going to get on the evils of race-baiting!

Still doesn't change the fact that Obama is still a failur.

I'm pretty sure that's something. Whenever you in accurately try to accuse someone of racism or race baiting, I'm just going to point out that you did actually race bait yourself. That and you're a little worthless pig.

I mean, I just don't get it. It's like if I was a terrible, rotten human being who withheld flowers from a dying woman because I was too lazy to get around to spending other people's money I wouldn't lecture people about buying flowers for a dying woman, know what I mean? No one can lack that much self-awareness, right?

That's retarded. Are we all Africans then?
How long does a population need to occupy an area to be a native?

See... its statements like this make expose you for the moron you truly are.
RMoney sure seems to be a good campaigner. He is running against an incumbent, something Obama never did. He is running against a sycophantic press while doing well.
He has more leadership and management experience in the shit he takes than Obama will ever have. He also has a proven record as a problem solver in both the private and public sectors, something Obama never had.
I doubt RMoney could ever be as bad a President as Obama is.

He sure seems to be doing a good job running for President right now. Perhaps you need to lay off the Ed Schultz flavor Kool Aid or whatever bubble you exist in.
