GOP'ish candidates

[smc]

My friends, please be careful with your posts, lest you allow TracyCoxx to change the subject and/or continue to avoid asking the question that I originally posed. TracyCoxx is correct that no specific GOP leaders/personalities/elected representatives make the comparison. But the GOP generally kowtows to the Tea Party, where the comparison has been made in the form of numerous signs (and innuendo) at rallies. My question was about these GOP folks directly repudiating that crap, in the same way that John McCain famously stopped his rally to correct the wacko old lady who called Obama a Muslim. And it was about TracyCoxx repudiating the comparison ... something TracyCoxx still refuses to do.

Those who do not repudiate these comparisons, those who allow them to stand, are complicit. Sure, the politicians refuse because they fear upsetting the "base." But McCain understood it as a matter of principle, on that occasion I just cited. Mitt Romney, who has no principles, does not, which is why he refused to repudiate the woman who said at one of his recent rallies that Obama should be tried for treason.

Careful with this guilt by association line you're talking. Obama's worked hard to distance himself from all those shady characters like his anti-American "pastor", his terrorist friends and mentors and his communist mentors. And heck, we'd have to take another look at the the Democratic party too with the way they turn the other cheek about the new black panthers and the election manipulating acorn organization. Obama and the Democratics don't really support those people, do they?

As usual, you dodge the question directed at YOU, TracyCoxx, by trying to muddy the waters or change the subject. If it weren't so transparent every time you do it, I might acknowledge you as a master.

But these other things have been dealt with in past discussions. For my part, I do not support Obama. I reject the philosophy Bill Ayres once embraced of what real revolutionists (those who believe in the action of the masses) call "individual terrorism." The "new black panthers" are two or three guys ... and the bullshit story about them has been completely debunked by several investigative (and non-partisan) journalists. The ACORN thing is a sham, too, and we've already had extensive discussions about voter fraud (back when the ACORN stuff broke), during which you -- TracyCoxx -- worked overtime to try (like here) not to acknowledge the many examples given of Republican-based voter fraud shenanigans.
