   Marcia, are you so little as to see racism behind everything? Can I not   
   call someone stupid because they are black? Can I not call them an idiot   
   or a marxist if that is what they are?   
      
   You have so little to back up your thinking that you just have to   
   sidetrack to a racist thing to back up a poor argument?   
      
   I am against the man, what he is, and what he stands for, the shell he   
   lives in makes little difference, at least to me. Sorry to hear that you   
   are such a latent racist. Seems most democrats are. :(
