Virginia GOP Flyer Features Dark-Skinned Man, Refers to "Evil"

You have mentioned that you think that freedom of speech is out of control in the U.S. Perhaps there should be a cap on the number of people in any given thread who can write posts in opposition to your positions. Would that make you feel better?

It's called the "Fairness Doctrine" and it may be coming back real soon.

To apply to message boards?

Probably not but then again the Internet didn't exist (as we know it now) the last time the law was in effect in the 1980s.

However, the racism sh!t is what people like you and Rogue perpetuate with this unintelligent crusade against minorities. It's also why fliers like this have been sent out, because it might convince a few similarly unintelligent people to vote differently.

Didn't you say you had a liberals arts degree in another thread. Specializing in marketing.

No. I though you said you were going to, as in already committed to doing so. Silly me for thinking you more altruistic than mere sarcasm.

As for the rest, again... completely out of context to what's been said. Must be that attention deficit at work or something.

My method of literally cleaning up the hoods has been shot down. Even if we have to drag people out of there kicking and screaming.

So I would like to see the people who suggest the cumbiya approach to walk the talk.

Who's proposing just that approach?

That's right. Nobody.

You suggested that you personally would go down the 'hood' and round up all them bad people, pack them up and send them off to Singapoor to get their arses whooped and all out of your own personal fortune? Who knew?

I was hoping he'd have joined some tutoring group or something to stop whining here all the time.

Joe needs to ger out of the facotries and go into the service jobs..like immigrants go to other countries..its called switching careers and quit depending on govt to take care of it.

Which has what to do with your racism? Ahh, that's right, nothing.

Thanks for playing.

Isn't the photo supposed to depict a terrorist? It's a stupid mailing anyway, but I don't see the jump to Obama.

Well, it's a classic propaganda ploy. First, say Obama's a Muslim. Muslims are terrorists. Ergo, Obama is a terrorist. It doesn't matter that the first element in the syllogism is false -- people get carried away by the "logic" of the argument. In the case of the flyer, the color of the guy's skin and the message are unmistakeable.

Goebels would be proud.

So...what...you think the photo should have a light-skinned guy?

Personally, I don't think political parties should be employing any strategy that involves the implication of some 'unknown' force of evil/terror' in order to frighten the populace into voting a particular way. It's ridiculous propoganda. What's wrong with sending out pamphlets with a summary of policy and objectives?

Our local Congressman (Frank Pallone) does that but he is running without any real threat to his candidacy.

The voting public should demand such materials, and accountablity when/if they don't put their money where their mouth is. If that happened, you wouldn't get so much of this shitty/shoddy electioneering that passes for politics, bah, humbug!

Do you actually say 'bah humbug' IRL?

No, but I do say one, and any number of other very quaint Englishisms
