Comment on: The Enlightenment II

Rep. Joe Wilson, A Message From A Black American

Screaming at the tv

Yes, many of us were. Any thinking person was having that same thought. What he was saying was impossible, but anybody who has the guts to say it is labeled a racist. It's good to see you havn't fallen for that Mr.Brotherton. I salute you sir and hope to hear more from you.

Well said.

To call Rep. Joe Wilson's comment racist is blatantly absurd. It's as bad as Janeane Garofalo calling the Tea Party protesters racists for wanting lower taxes and opposing government run health care.

Don't these people realize that throwing around the term racist so loosely diminishes the effectiveness of pointing out true acts of racism. At some point, it just becomes like the boy who cried wolf.

That point was passed some time ago, but good analogy.
