I usually try to stay out of yall's quips mostly because I think both sides are full of it but when did anyone throw race into it? I dont know if I have ever saw Hoot or the like say Obama is bad because he is black. Let's keep race out of it.

As plain as I can state it: I don't know whether "Hoot Gibson" is a racist or not, so I assume not. However, to suggest that race has nothing whatsoever to do with the vitriolic opposition to Barack Obama is ridiculous. Newt Gingriches' comments about Kenya and colonialism notwithstanding, I can't believe you believe this yourself, unless, as you say, you use the "they're all full of bull" defense mechanism as a way of comforting yourself.
