Didn't the republicans in office go down to a single digit rating?

Sadly, many people say they disagree with his policies under a very thinly veiled deep seeded racism they have. Not a lot of people can name his policies, outside of Obamacare.

I have three things to say on this issue.
1. This kind of crap has no place in our society.
2. You must be thrilled to have finally found REAL racism from someone who opposes Obama. Naturally you'll now get to pretend that EVERYONE who disagrees with anything he does has one of these bumper stickers on their car.
3. You called it right wing hate, but you haven't provided one shred of evidence that the person with that bumper sticker is a "right-winger".

I saw that "Original Boys in the Hood" t-shirt when I was a kid. The Rebel flag and sayings along with have been around since the Civil War ended with the south losing. So some of these aren't specific to Obama. It's the same racist tripe that's been coming out of the same precincts for many years. And they've obviously jumped at the opportunity to use Obama as a literal poster child.
But am I reading the link right? There's only 1 picture of 1 vehicle with a stupid bumper sticker?
I'd say that's far from circulated. They're out there, sure. That's an unfortunate aspect of life. But you're making it seem as if it's widespread throughout the right wing.
If that were the case, we'd be seeing a lot more of them. Thankfully we're not.

I posted it wrong. If you view the scroll down, they have a virtual slideshow. There are about 8 of them. There is one where he is actually drawn, as a monkey, fur and all.
This is just outrageous.

Yes. I seen all the ones they had available. But only 1 photo showed an actual vehicle that was displaying the bumper sticker. I'm sure if there were a lot of cars out there with them displayed, there would be an entire album illustrating it.
So while it is deplorable that someone would even make these things, it says a lot that they're not being used on a lot of vehicles.

I don't live in one of those states that is more likely to have them so I haven't seen them personally. If you read through the comments on that page, some people have seen stickers like those, and worse.

The bumper stickers are deplorable, and that is coming from someone who does know Obama's policies and who actively opposes them.
You are just as guilty of the hatred you claim is so offensive to you. To unfairly label someone due to their belonging to ANY group is JUST as WRONG.
I'd say the liberal's hate more than the conservatives. Why? They'd ruin someone's livlihood and career just because they disagree with them, they do not speak out against all wrongs only the wrong done by their opponents, they protect the hatred spewed by other liberals as free speech and try to trivialize it.
If you're going to get indignant about hate, point it out WHERE EVER you see it, be honest with yourself and with others about it being in both camps.

"You know Obama's policies? I don't fully believe that. The majority of the people benefiting from his policies are not even aware they were his policies."
Do you have anything to back that up? Most of the morons supporting him still have no idea what he stands for. It's not entirely their fault though since he keeps lying to them.

"The left wing opposes all the isms."
They sure do, realism, patriotism, capitalism, no doubt about it.
"The republicans solely house the racists."
Sure they do...

Ruining someone's livelihood? Rush Limbaugh?
I think there needs to be a law in place where commentators can't go on air and spread blatant lies to all the sheople gullible enough to believe it.
You know Obama's policies? I don't fully believe that. The majority of the people benefiting from his policies are not even aware they were his policies.
I will make another thread on all of his accomplishments and we will discuss it there.
The left wing opposes all the isms. The right wing says they do, but says if they feel any particular way toward a group in general, they can hide behind whatever religious freedom or abuse of freedom of speech they have.
There are bad seeds in both groups, far fewer in the left wing, considering there is no left wing. The republicans solely house the racists.
No sense in denying it.

That is just awful.. I can't believe people would do that to the president.. That is not only an insult to him, but to the entire African American community.Why would anyone also agree to put that in their cars..or anywhere else. This is why racism would never end.

Yet, you are the one helping the circulation. It is a little ironic that you are promoting it. What if it was actually a Democrat who was making money off of this? It is stupid to jump to a conclusion when not even the news detected who exactly the website belonged to. Your speculation that it was a right wing is just that, an unproven allegation with no actual facts to back it up. But then that is something that is becoming expected from your discussions.

Honestly, I don't like seeing any image of a person regardless of who they are or whether or not I agree with them, done this way.
I also don't like seeing images of people on the flag for that matter. If you think it doesn't matter just remember there is another flag with a symbol that originally meant something else. Like the guy, that's fine, but there are limits.

Racism is always wrong. A person is good or bad. It has nothing to do with race. A president can be good bad or mediocre. Again it has nothing to do with race. As much as I dislike Obama, and believe me, I think he's a communistic idiot, I would never resort to racism. It's just plain wrong. It is a sign of a small mind. Stick to the fact when criticizing a person, not the outside packaging.
