buzz about the way Barack appears in blue jeans (which of course has a tinge of racist stereotype to it.).
And that really is the point. You can't on the one hand say that you're going to be an equal participant in politics, which is a dirty game, and then be so sensitive. You're imposing a sort of moral correctness which is totally unrealistic.
Also, if you care about progressive movements in this country you should feel responsible to decry racist remarks about Obama just if not more strongly than you decry sexist remarks about Clinton.
Your arguments in this thread have been weak, but in particular I am amazed to read this:
"if you care about progressive movements in this country you should feel responsible to decry racist remarks about Obama just if not more strongly than you decry sexist remarks about Clinton."
Are you seriously trying to say that it's MORE important to decry racism than sexism? Hey, I see some sexism and racism going on in this primary, but I sure as shit don't try to claim one is worse than the other, or that one deserves more opprobrium than the other. Geez.
