Gee Bob,
This is the second time you mentioned that I have race issues ???
But I don't see them, I call them as I see them, red, yellow, black or white.
Unless your referring my comment that I would trust Blacks before I would ever trust Whites, and that's not a race issue, it's just the facts. I've been there an know of which I speak.
Now I admit that I do like Condoleezza, I think she's one hell of a woman. If that's what your talking about, go for it.
I don't hide from a situation because someone is a different color. And if it is the Obama thing, just ask the NAACP what they think about all the help he has given "His" people, 16 - 19% unemployment and higher in some places.
Obama is GREEN, just like every other politician out there. If you have the GREEN, you have his attention.
Bill

I would think that the mention of race issues comes from the following statement:
"If you can not be civil to a fellow causation (Caucasian) American upon his death, what can I expect of you when a person of color passes and you do not like his political philosophy?"

D-Ray

Thank you D-Ray,
I thought that this was a very self explanatory statement ?
If you can not be civil with one of your own upon his death, how can you ever hope to be civil to someone of another, Race, Color, Religion, Nationality or Political Persuasion ? Civility, It has nothing to do with race, unless you wish to take one word out of context.
I believe that it is in the Bible as : How can you say that you love GOD, whom you have never seen, when you can not even love your brothers.But that works just as well
Thank you D-Ray,
Bill

Dumb and dumber, Cain and Perry.
FWIW, it was a former Rick Perry guy who dropped a dime on Cain (or at least that was what Cain claimed on numerous occasions).

That is interesting. It raises a question about who is one of my own. Is it someone who is of the same religion as me? Is it someone with similar political views? Is it someone in my same economic class? Is it someone within my profession? (Have you heard the story about the sharks who escorted the lawyer to the shore on the basis of professional courtesy? ) Is it someone of my gender? Is it another homo sapiens? Is is someone of my nationality?
There are all sorts of things upon which we might highlight our differences or our sameness. I can relate to Breitbart on the basis of being a husband and a father, and I feel for his family. I cannot relate to him on the basis of the manner in which he chose to present himself to the world or on the basis of the methods he chose to make a point. To me, those characteristics are much more important than his color.
Regards,
D-Ray

The point of this matter, Barrister is,
We should all respect everyone in death, as in life.
I do not believe that your comments against Andrew Breitbart were any kinder then his comments when he was alive. So you placed yourself in the same category as you placed him.
And as to the sharks, they do not eat lawyers, because they are so disagreeable to their digestion ! And they pollute the water, so they push you out ! BA BUM BUM And as I understand it, sharks do not eat refuse, or dead waste.
Bill

Bullchit. Respect is earned, not bestowed upon people for breathing.
IIRC, in several of your previous posts, you've effectively called millions of your own countrymen parasites without knowing any of them. Just how respectful is that?
Bill - You're a bundle of confused contradictions.
