There are just too many racists that have crawled out of the woodwork and have found a comfortable home here for my liking. There are too many racist statements that are being made and, worse, allowed to remain permanently. My association with such posters, in my mind, is a de facto sanction of rheir behavior. And while I have confronted it as much as possible, its increasingly apparent that its just not a battle that can be won here. So, given this, I refuse to continue in that mode. I will be a lurker...this still remains a good clearing house for news articles both mainstream and fringe but my posting is going to decrease markedly from here on out. I have been thinking about this for a few weeks now and the ever repetitive, ever increasing derogatory references to Obama based solely on his race have just become too deleterious to any semblance of, even a modicum of, rational debate. Goldi, herself, a few weeks ago, expressed exasperation that other sites have negatively characterized LP. Given the epidemic of overt racism that is allowed to be expressed here and has been given a permanent berth once it has been expressed, in my mind, justifies those characterizations. Good luck everyone...it's been fun here...I wish EVERYONE health, prosperity and peace. --war war posted on 2009-01-29 10:07:52 ET Reply Trace There are just too many racists This happens to liberals during their final mental disintergation. They see racists everywhere. Or homophobes. Or antisemites. Whoever the enemy de jour is. Important thing is to make sure leftists suffering from this do not isolate themselves in places such as Guyana . That is when what is personally destructive can become an epidemic of insantity. Also important for other leftists to reach out and reassure an afflicted leftist that many of those "racists" or whatever are fellow leftists acting as agents provocateurs (very common on Liberty Forum).

The use of the word racist is an attempt by the PC'd (left and right) to censor our First amendment. This poster "war" should have booted long ago by Goldi, who herself is a racist by definition, in her hatred for Palestinians. I wonder if "war" takes exception to the alien-flag-waving illegals, as they snarl at white man, saying something like "Let me into your prosperous country, you damned racist xenophobe."
You're making me uncomfortable, JT. You'd better stop it.
