John McCain said: -From his campaign bus in 2000, Sen. John McCain told reporters, "I hated the gooks. I will hate them as long as I live. -In March 2007," But for me to stand here before all these people and say that I'm going declare divorces invalid because someone feels that they weren't treated fairly in court, we are getting into a, uh, uh, tar baby of enormous proportions." - In 2007 McCain responded to the question about Senator Hillary Clinton "what do we have to do get rid of the bitch?" not by repudiating it, or denouncing it, but instead said "well that's a very good question." McCain should immediately step down as a republican candidate for President. There is no way you he win now. That is too bad. These actually came out of your own mouth and not just someone he knows. Why are these quotes not being played over and over and over all day long on FoxTV.

Most people have already heard those things, and most people don't care about being P.C. or think that it defines people's views on race.
Hillary is a bitch and I can't blame him for hating the people who captured and tortured him for years. Those were the "gooks" he was referring to. He apologized for the tar baby comment. Don't you believe in redemption? The Democrats must have some, because Robert Byrd was in the KKK.
At least he's not racist enough to have gone to a segregated church for 20 years.

Calling people gooks, bitches and tar babies is going way beyond political incorrectness. Calling people gooks and using the word tar baby definitely shows that he is a racist and the only reason you don't care is that you either think the way he does or you want him to win so bad that you are looking past these very racist statements. You are also agreeing that he is a hateful person and trying to justify his hate by saying that he was tortured by these "gooks" for years. What the heck do you think happened to blacks in this country? It is okay for McCain to hate and say hateful things but not okay for Obama to know someone who said them. Obama knew someone who said those things. He didn't personally say them. There are no quotes floating around where Obama is saying he hates all honkys. No quotes where he calls any woman a bitch. We know McCain has said things like this but he is off the hook. Why? As far as Obama's church being segregated. I have seen pictures of white people that go there and I think segregated means there would be no whites at all. But you are the expert on this racism issue so please let me know if I am wrong about the meaning of segregated. Could you also please let me klnow where I could find a picture of McCain in his church with a black person somewhere in the vicinity. Thanks.

First of all, he didn't call anyone a bitch. It's not his job to censor the words of eveyone who asks him a question. He called a bad name specifically to the people who captured and tortured him in a war. The other comment he aplogized for. That's a term that has more to do with his age than any underlying feelings about any group of people. Get over yourself. There are real substantive reasons to not like him. Do I have to GIVE them to you? I think a person can make a racial slur and not be a racist. I also think there are racists who never say a racist term. There are people who would never say the "n" word, who would hold on to their purse like it was made of gold on an elevator with young black makes, or who would find some reason to not rent their empty apartment to a minority. There are people who use that word and other colorful ones to describe minorities and give every individual they meet a fair shake. Obama's church is racist. This, from their website. "We are a congregation which is Unashamedly Black and Unapologetically Christian... Our roots in the Black religious experience and tradition are deep, lasting and permanent. We are an African people, and remain "true to our native land," the mother continent, the cradle of civilization. God has superintended our pilgrimage through the days of slavery, the days of segregation, and the long night of racism. It is God who gives us the strength and courage to continuously address injustice as a people, and as a congregation. We constantly affirm our trust in God through cultural expression of a Black worship service and ministries which address the Black Community." www.tucc.org/about.htm

Hey Mo, just wondering if you were going to be able to come up with that picture I was asking for. I know from what you said that a picture won't prove McCain is not a racist but I was wondering if you gave up on the search. Another thing is the link you sent me from the church had video of a white person who has attended Obama's church. Thank you.

Huh?
I'm not interested in such a picture, so I haven't searched, and won't. It's not my job to do interent searches to satisfy someone else's curiosity, unless they are paying me a healthy sum. Also, I haven't sent you any links.
A white person in Obama's church doesn't mean they do anything to welcome them. It's taped for a T.V. show, and press is there, so no telling why he or she would be there.

I didn't think you would be interested in finding a picture that doesn't exist. Who would? McCain is as racist as they come. These issues will come up more and more as soon as the Dems pick a candidate. Then MSNBC can start spending 24 hours a day bashing his racist words the way FOXNEWS has done with Obama. McCain does not stand a chance.
