If there is an opportunity to be exploited in the democratic process it will be, if not always by the candidates themselves. *sigh* These things will never cease to not surprise me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14045043061812760168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6477941359267770660.post-76688250658402311272008-10-17T09:46:00.000-04:002008-10-17T09:46:00.000-04:00I don't know whether to laugh or cry at what my co...I don't know whether to laugh or cry at what my country has become. There are thousands (if not millions) of people who agree with this woman. People who fit into her demographic will likely be trounced by young voters this election year. Either way,<BR/>"Obama bucks" symbolizes the waning days of the GOP's Rovian era. Certainly smears and character assassination will not go the way of Bush. But the 2008 election, for an assortment of reasons, including the economic crisis, has made voters resentful of slimy campaigning. The Sarah Palin rallies that mimic Nuremberg circa 1938, the illegitimate black child smear against McCain in 2000, or last week when McCain referred to Obama as "that one," these incidents have made even some conservatives wince. Maybe the public will learn something from all of this, or maybe unscrupulous hacks will always exploit fear and racism in the democratic process.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6477941359267770660.post-7360202195412740962008-10-16T19:14:00.000-04:002008-10-16T19:14:00.000-04:00Freshman year at Cornell, the Black Student Union ...Freshman year at Cornell, the Black Student Union handed out fliers for their first event: Chicken and Waffles...I write this just as some food for thought (buh-dum-ch) and not at all as a justification for that imageSloane Frosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16071361313209500437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6477941359267770660.post-92011166963367906512008-10-16T17:26:00.000-04:002008-10-16T17:26:00.000-04:00Sickening.
