Second, Im not a Republican speaking for Republicans. Im just to the right of centrist and independent. But I get tired of these typical arguments

You're telling me you never saw JD making his argument that the Republicans are full of racist?

You're telling me you never heard it said that if you don't vote for Obama it's because you're a racist?

You're telling me you never heard the Tea Party being marginalized as a bunch of red necks?

Seriously?
Didn't say any of that. I said what I said.

Re: Even More,Racist Hate from the LEFT

Timmy? Are you a liberal?

Did you tell JD he was using the race card in this thread?

I suppose I'm farther left than most here, so I guess that's a Yes. Relatively speaking.

I didn't post on that thread. Of course I wouldn't tell JD he's "using the race card". I have a double standard!

But really, I'm not sure it makes sense, from either side, to criticize accusations of racism that comes from the other side. Even on this thread, I haven't really done that to you. Not just for that, anyway. The only problem I have with it is that you somehow think it invalidates the left's "tactics": namely, pointing out racism from the right. So, to be clear, I have no problem with you or anyone else bringing racism to our attention, when it comes from "the left", and I don't have a problem when the left points out cases of racism from "the right". Just don't draw conclusions that are not warranted.

And I don't buy claims that it happens more on the left than on the right. (Not that you have claimed that, exactly. But I get the impression that you think that's true, from your comments here.) We'd need a statistical study, to find out which side is more affected. (Though I have a strong hunch that it's more common on the right.)

But I agree with you one these points: racism occurs in both (or all) camps. And it's wrong, no matter who it is.

Here's something else I suppose I agree on: the "race card" is overplayed, but from both sides! I've seen both sides cite examples of racism and strongly imply that it proves something, and over-generalize based on a few examples.

Re: Even More,Racist Hate from the LEFT

Oh, by the way, if you think you have invalidated the left's tactic of saying that there are no racist liberals, congratulations. You have done that. I haven't heard that tactic used, that I can recall, but if it has, and if the people mentioned in the OP are liberals, then congrats.

Yes it DOES invalidate it.l You really believe it's a valid tactic?

Why point it out and not draw an unwarranted conclusion? Don't you see one does not have to state a conclusion? It's implied automatically just by pointing it out

Racism should NOT be a political football. Nobody should be accused of Racism for someone elses political gain

I have a feeling we're not talking about the same "tactic". Why don't you define it for us?
