    don't don't mind who I am with as long as it's not the white, red, black or blue trash, each race has their trash and that I want no part of

    I'm not actually mad I am just pointing out that not you or anyone else's options or thoughts mean (*)(*)(*)(*). You and me are no bodies as is everyone else. What you believe seems really important to you but anyone who believes what they think matters is a fool. That is why I find this place fascinating. Everyone thinks they are the smartest person here and everything they say and think is right. None of you mean (*)(*)(*)(*). I am smart enough to know this unfortunately most of you aren't.

    Then why bother to post in a forum where thoughts and opinions are discussed? You think you can tell people how to act and talk? You need to grow up and get over yourself kid. :confusion:

    Yea, no idea where she could have learned the difference in skin color......:roll:

    There's probably going to be more awkward moments in the future.....

    Won't mean a thing. Stop obsessing and dwelling on skin color.

    Do you realize you just lambasted everyone on this forum for believing they're smarter than the next then turned around and claimed your smarter?
    I often admit I'm lacking in education compared to most members here but damn that's just not bright. Your psychology degree doesn't seem to be worth much "in the real world".

    Then as a psychologist you should understand that your anger is irrational and counterproductive if you wish your observations to bear fruit.

    I used the term minorities simply because it's easier than getting into specifics. Yes she evidently lived a very isolated existence since she apparently thinks that inside the United States there exists only Blacks and Whites. The full article is an interesting read . . . if one can stomach it.

    My advice would be to hire an illegal immigrant as a live-in nanny so that her kids will see a brown face.

    I was considered a distasteful little brown skin by whites and while sort of accepted by the Hispanic community I wasn't considered one of them. So I shrugged and went my own way and thought for myself. Eventually the government decided that despite my skin tone I was White.

    Oh I dunno, after years of posting on one side or the other I've come to the conclusion that the Left is just as infested with racists and bigots and haters as the Right. The approaches may be different but it's all the same stuff in the end. But so far at least no GOP president ever had to form a Beer Summit because he shot off his bigoted and racist mouth before discovering the facts.

    Exactly. You see race and individualism from each race. I see race and individualism from each individual.

    You'd do well to understand the critical difference.

    Oh, no I'm not, and neither are you. What you are is exposed.

    Hardly. That person would be focused on race as well, and also racist. So many people on your side are. You have elevated skin color above everything else, valuing it above the uniqueness of the individual. That is why you say what you do, and offer the analogy that you did.

    To a person who has elevated skin color higher than individuality - a racist cue - everyone who doesn't appears to be a racist.

    Hey, you are entitled to come up with any conclusions that you like, no matter how misguided they are.

    And no, maybe the GOP never had a president that had a "beer summit", but they did have two who specifically pandered to white racists in the south in order to win votes. But I bet that's okay because it was a "different time", eh?

    Actually yes. Consider how only a few years ago Barack Obama had no use for gays or lesbians . . . and it was only after his party overwhelmingly embraced them that he 'discovered' that they were actual human beings. Times change and people -- well -- sometimes they change as well.

    You're right about that. So when is the GOP going to discover that they are "actual human beings"? Probably never, because that would (*)(*)(*)(*) of their low information base. And as any potential GOP nominee knows, you can't (*)(*)(*)(*) off the social conservative clowns that represent a large portion of the base.

    You don't do much reading outside of the Daily Kos, eh? Most Republicans consider gay and lesbian lifestyles a non-issue. Increasing numbers of them are -- gasp! -- indifferent about legalized marriages.

    Apparently you don't do much reading outside of breitbart considering you believe what you just typed.

    Ask your right wing politicians that question.
