You can have compassion without trying to pretend to be like them. To speak with hate promotes hate...

You on the left that cling to your Spelling Bee Trophies or Degree should be outraged...
Hannity's investigative reporting skills really have shown through on this one, JB. That clip was about five years old and it went thud back then. You have to wonder if the Right Wing noise machine is really after Mitts nuts for a necktie with this one. Bringing up race is loser now and it was a loser back then, Mitt want's to talk about the economy when he isn't sticking his foot up his snout over Benghazi and the crazy fringe keeps pointing and snickering that Obama is a black man. Having the pundits calling Mitt's campaign a rolling calamity last week was entertainment of the highest order to us Democrats.

I'm starting to think there's a stealth tactic going on to make us sympathetic to R$R with this stuff. It might work....nahhhh.

I watched a little bit of the video. That's not talking jive or Ebonics or any other pejorative one might want to use. I've visited AME churches enough to recognize that as preacher cadence - rhythmic and poetic. He was talking to a gathering of preachers. It makes sense that he would fall into that cadence.

I have not frequented the Breitbart site. Just a few minutes there is enough, however, to recognize the crap that Mezz spews here.

Hannity is a smug, sanctimonious punk and I couldn't care less what he thinks about anything. His opinion means less to me than yours does, Mezz. And that's saying something.

No, the important point is not Obama's skin color, but the content of his character. A character that seeks to associate with most of the elite accoutrements that he consciously castigates for political gain.
Hmm, big words for this little brain of mine. I am going to think on this a bit.

To exhibit a language coefficent of greater than one during the interpersonal transfering of summarized ideals equates to complicated and somewhat opaque interpretations of the expressions put forth.


Translation - I don't understand language use greater than one syllabul.

BHunter - I love cool words and to mess with semantics. I still need to look up some of your words as I have no idea what you really said, only a guess. So, I am not really attacking you or your position, just having fun with it.
