re: #642 BigPapa

I’m not kidding myself at all. What do you suggest we call it then? It’s not so simple as ‘both sides of the same coin’ or ‘better worse.’

If you want to make distinctions I would suggest that everyone has a bias towards their tribe of choice. Sometimes tribe is based on skin color, sometimes it’s based on political bias. My tribe is the individual, but I am biased towards Lizards.
The degree, persistence, and consistency of acting and speaking over a lifetime is what should determine if the degree of bias is so great that almost every single issue and question revolves on the tribe, then that it’s teetered over into tribal supremacism. Pat Buchanan, easy call to make. Rev. Wright, easy call to make.
President Obama, not so easy and probably not a racist.
