    Yes It's the notion that it isn't possible for Obama to lose on the issues. If he does lose, then the only possible explanation is racism.

    This is what you are whining about? Not that Obama is playing the race card, but that some pundit is? Now slate is the Democratic party? Sorry I'm not buying into Stan's(and now your) fantasy of a 'leftist' media as an organ of the Democratic party.

          Then go ahead, I'm waiting with bated breathe. You posed the stupid question, as if it means something to admit that there is bigotry in the Republican party, as if there isn't in any other organization. Strawman indeed, I may have to start calling you that.

            maybe you should take a trip to the local food bank where the "poor" can get free foodstuff. Check out the parking lot and see what they're driving. And go inside and see what they're wearing, and tell me that all of them are "hurting". I have done so and not everyone I see is "hurting".

            From your phrasing, can I assume that some must be? My kids and I used to spend Thanksgiving mornings delivering Turkey dinners to shut-ins. They were hurting

                Yes, but they did not nominate hillary, so clearly, they are sexist...

                Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

                  All I know is that it is a damn good thing for you that Barack is black. No white guy that far to the left would have ever made it this far. Otherwise, oily, you would have been president a long time ago.

                    Logcally that does not follow. Now if you had said "Apparently less than 50% of the party is not bigoted towards black people specifically, or at least not bigoted enough to outweigh their dislike for Hillary", that would be a different matter. But that would have taken some of the spin off, and spin was your whole purpose wasn't it? For somebody who claims to dislike Fox News, you sure do stick to the Hannity & Colmes playbook.

                          Hannity and Colmes both do the same thing, try to get people to concede on some silly statement that they think will validate their whole premise. Oily to a T.

                                No, not at all. I don't see the two as comparable. Rather that elaborate as to why, I'll let you jump to some more false conclusions - you're so good at that.

                                    Exactly what response did you expect that to elicit? And what do you imagine that response would prove?

                                    I was making the point that he didn't respond directly to my previous post. Instead he simply accused the other side of the same problem. That form of attack response automatically concedes that the original point is valid.

                                    Prove? Don't know what you mean by that.

                                      Ah right, forgive me... [correction] Now if you had said "Apparently less than 50% of the party is not bigoted towards muslim people specifically, or at least not bigoted enough to outweigh their dislike for Hillary" [/correction] Statement still stands. But by all means, continue with your original ad absurdum, or renew your ad hominem if you must.

                                      You have yet to actually support that there is anything illogical. The 'Apparently not' statement was not said in a vacuum.

                                      I have already responded to your correction in the previous post. Simply restating yourself advances nothing.

                                        burden of proof rests on the reader of your posts? duly noted.
