In a truly color blind society, we wouldn't have the attacks being leveled on Obama that we are seeing.

This election has been pretty routine compared to the other ones I have seen in my life. I remember when Ronald "Ray Gun" was supposed to get us all killed and it was essential to vote for Walter Mondale before we all died in WWIII.
Nothing out of the ordinary in this election. In a truly color blind society, you would make the same criticisms of Obama that you would make if he was white instead. If you hold back because he is black, THEN you don't have color blind society.
In a truly color blind society, you wouldn't be calling me names like "KarlMarx...", you would address me as a man who you happen to disagree with. In a truly color blind society, black people would be able to criticize other blacks without being accused of being opposed to a color blind society

Now, if I call WTF a "pinko" because of some of his economic redistributionist posts, and it later turns out he is Mexican, does that make me an anti-Hispanic? Do I have to prove I'm not anti-Hispanic by suddenly supporting higher taxes on upper income? Or, like you, am I allowed to have an opinion, too?
Shall i continue?
