    After all this talk, I'm going to have to get off my couch and actually see what it is that was so dastardly that she said.

    Thanks a lot, I was just going to eat another chocolate bon bon and watch The Days of Our Lives.

    I don't get what the big deal is with this. I wouldn't have thought anything of it no matter who said it. Well, maybe if a KKK type or other White Supremacist had said it, I would take offense. But clearly, it was only intended as a joke.

    I think the whole big deal can be summed up as some people just hate Hillary because that's what they've been taught over and over and over again.

    Sure, because some conservatives have a nasty habit of actually being racist. So that makes it harder for conservatives to get away with such jokes.

    The Clintons have always been given passes by their devout supporters.

    I grew up in North Portland man, and some of the most racist people I knew were staunch democrats! they were some of my relatives I'm disappointed & ashamed to say! Theu could have been some of your relatives and friends too. There is enough racism from both sides so don't make it political. Thats part of the problem!

    I have friends and family that are republicans too & Lanny, and they are not racist, some of the nicest, humble and giving people I know.
    Geez louise.

    I was talking politicians, not civilians. Among civilians, there are of course racists on both sides (and you have very fine people, on both sides), but a list of most-racist politicians will have a lot of R's towards the top.

    More overtly racist sure. Can't be a white racist democrat that's obvious.

    What's in their minds is another story. Since most politicians are in it for the power and money who knows what any of them really believe.

    I would be so sure honestly, they are on tour and they really think they are part of the ruling class.
    And they have a following that will slobber all over them again.

    Bro, you seriously don't know what you're talking about and you're pushing a false narrative.

    I declared Hillary a racist in numerous threads.

    Calling black people "superpredators" that need to be "brought to heel".

    BITCH, you bring a DOG to heel...

    She's going to run!
    Do you really think she's going to support Warren, Booker or any other?

    She won't run and I'll bet you a beer of your choice at a place of your choice. See? It's a win-win. We can discuss that adoption thingy_ma_jiggy and my new son(s?).

    You're acting like there's a double standard and there isn't. Conservatives just have FAR more racists.

    If you're socially conservative, you're more apt to be racist or sexist.
