Yeah, I should have “replied” to one of the original questioners.

I think that in some cases, pointing out that there’s at least some racism involved in ODS is fair and accurate.

Not all criticism of Obama is racist - from my perspective saying that is, in itself racist (it implies that as a political figure, Obama needs some sort of special protection, which he doesn’t, shouldn’t get even if he needed it and has never asked for.)

I think that there’s more than a little racism involved where Wilson is concerned - his associations and past behavior indicate to me that he’s got an issue with black people, and that needs to be called out.
