    Indigo,

    Your point? What point? You've been spewing absolute bullshit all day and I don't see a point yet.

    So, why don't you answer my question? That is, how do you figure Obama's presumtive nomination has anything to do with Affirmitve Action? You've been dodging that question all day. Go ahead and answer. It's okay. I can't jump through the computer and hurt you, as much as I might want to.

    Most of us just want an adult in the White House. If that person happens along in the form of a black guy, that might be an added bonus to some people. The rest of us don't give a fuck if he's purple.

    In typical Right-wing fashion, you are trying to make an issue where there is none. It's a distraction, just like all of your family-values bullshit. What is left of your Republican Revolution has become so corrupted and intellectually vacant that even the likes of Rupert Murdoch are predicting a major landslide for the Democrats in November.
