You certainly do, if your intention is to make yourself look very silly.

I am not desirous of your respect, as your style of argument is inherently disrespectful. What value would I place on the respect of someone who clearly has none for others? No, in this case all that matters is fact, and on that you are severely lacking.

Pg. 101-102......
"Tim was not a conscious brother. Tim wore argyle sweaters and pressed jeans and talked like Beaver Cleaver. He planned to major in business. His white girlfriend was probably waiting for him up in his room, listening to country music."

"I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of twelve or thirteen, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites."

Those are just a couple, sure my opponents will argue context as an excuse but he said them, they are racist thoughts and his actions as president in different incidents involving race shows he still harbors such feelings.
Context? No, and thanks for trying to divert honest discussion by predicting that others will say what you want them to say.

No, I will argue that Obama could not possibly be dangerous because he is so very stupid. If he really had a secret agenda do you think he would say it in front of everybody like that? It looks to me like he's being honest and up front about his youth, and showing how he's grown. Only a complete idiot would admit to current racism in those terms. It looks to me like your seeing not what he was saying, but what you wanted to hear.

Quote:
A white guy running ever said such things? LOL he would never have made it through primaries.
Only because the white guys you appreciate aren't capable of being that honest. Try again.

Quote:
There was one really offense line about when he found out his grandfather in africa worked for a white man still, the term "house ******" came to mind.
Did he use that term, or did you? I notice you don't quote that passage.

Nothing really. I'm just bored this evening. I was thinking about playing some Street Fighter against Hunter, but I switched from a gamepad to a proper arcade stick this week on my wife's advice and I still kind of suck at it. So, I played this game instead.

I probably should have went with Street Fighter, but meh.

Show me how obama is no longer in what you call a phase? Obama's use of the race card, only appointing minority women to the supreme court, his actions in various incidents I previously listed shows he is still that angry, bigoted young man at heart.
Even if all that is true, it has absolutely nothing to do with hidden agendas and attempts to take over the country completely. We have had many presidents who were heavily flawed, and have even been called racist. You take to different concepts, "Angry young man" and "Marxist" and put them together to prove a point. "Angry young man" and "Racist" are certainly not wholesome, but neither are they overtly dangerous. "Marxist economy" is something to argue against, and many of us do, but your original theme for this thread was that Obama is setting up secret training camps to enforce his evil will on the country. Having been shown that any evidence for that was faked, you now try to prove that what he wrote about his different feelings when he was young indicates that he is dangerously biased today.

I could write things about my youth that would make you want to have me locked up as criminally insane. You need to admit that you have a highly biased agenda that controls and colors everything you think and say.

It was you who brought up the context argument, saying people who disagreed would use that. So far no one has. Tribesman made fun of you over it, and now you're trying to say that the context argument is false. The only one who has mentioned "context" is you, therefor you have created the classic straw man, and are now trying to knock him down.

Be fair, going on the evidence present I don't think he knows what the words he uses mean.

Kagan, well not sure about any racism from her but shes certainly just as dangerous.
So? Many presidents have made many nominations for the wrong reasons. Many presidents have also had that come back to haunt them, since appointees, especially to the courts, often stick a little closer to the center than the man who appointed them would like. All that said, what does that have to do with hidden agendas and secret armies? We're all still waiting for you to show one piece of actual proof for your original "reason" to gloat.

Really? That's a classic but very bad debate tactic. Claim that people have privately supported you but don't want to do it publicly. That claim can't be opposed, because that would require quoting a PM, which is very much against the rules. Because of that you also don't have to support it, for the same reasons. Anybody can claim anything. If someone doesn't step forward to support you now, we can assume you were lying.

Takeda just showed in your own words that you did. Denying it now makes you look less than honest, and less than smart. You second phrase "...but one cannot ignore some similarities", is a failed attempt to be subtle. "I didn't say it, but now that you mention it, I'll try to point it out without actually saying it."

He's right. You really aren't very good at this.

Quote:
I don't think obama is planning mass murder or anything like that.However, I know his ideology is marxist in nature, with his own hangups on race mixed in.Obama thinks he is savior of this nation and given the means and opportunity, he would exploit it and consolidate as much power as possible.Obama is also aware that chance may not happen but he would like to do his bit, to make it easier to move towards the nation he believes we should be, thinking in the long run, it will work out for him.
Even if we were to assume that was true, it's no worse than many presidents have been, and it has nothing to do with your original claim of secret training camps to take over the country.

Quote:
I know he despises our constitution and wants to as he said "fundamentally change america". Well the fundamentals of the country, individual rights, economic liberty, the pursuit of happiness are fine, it's crap of so called "progressivism" that is the problem, it's been around a while, managed to snake its way into our system and is the root of most problems.
Now you change the subject again. You "know" he despises the Constitution? How do you "know"?

Your argument against Progressivism might actually garner some agreement and support, if it wasn't for all the insane blather about secret camps and racism. As I've tried to show you many times, and you still haven't figured out, you might actually get some agreement if you could learn that you don't know anything. It is all opinion, and trying to sway people to yours depends on being able to say it the right way, which you seem incapable of doing. Learn to discuss, not preach.
