Lets NOT make this election about race.
I don't like Obama because he's black. I don't like him because he is a SOCIALIST bent on destroying our country.
Whats the reason you made numerous posts defending George Zimmerman.
[QUOTE=bassfisherman99;493137]Whats the reason you made numerous posts defending George Zimmerman.[/QUOTE]
Because even though I think he foolishly chased Martin, I believe the shot him in self defense. And the evidence is apparently showing that.
I think him trying to hide money donated to him was a BONEHEADED idea, and may very well lead to him being convicted. The media has painted Zimmerman as a racist, who shot an un armed choir boy who happened to be black. If you believe the media portrayal of Zimmerman and Martin, I have a few thousand acres of GOLD MINES to sell ya.

Would you rather have a libertarian or larouchite bent on destroying our country? You gotta admit it, George, your phrasing was funny!

Even then,Geo, I know you'd him inform that the anchor rode was wrapped around his ankle before he tossed the anchor over the side.;)

Unfortunately, it was about race the minute obama ran the first time....that's a big part of how he got elected. It will be worse this time. People will get hurt because it's that important to some groups that he get re-elected. Not for the good of our country but for the narrow minded fools who believe that his skin color has some great legacy for him and this country.

Eddie_M and I fish quite often.........even spent a week up north a couple years ago with him.
GOOD GUY :) .
And I've said it before.........when I'm up there or on the water, politics is the furthest thing from my mind.

While I don't want to speak for Geo, I am going to take a guess here that what he meant to say is:
I don't [B]dislike[/B] Obama because he's black. I don't like him because he is a socialist bent on destroying our country.
[QUOTE=GeoFisher;493136]

WOW......this is obviously NOT what I meant.
I just reread my post.........It has nothing to do with him being Black. my statement above "I don't like Obama because he's Black" Is obviously NOT what I meant.
Eddie pointed that out, and I missed it then.
My issues with Obama have nothing to do with his race........My issues have EVERYTHING to do with the fact that he is bent on destroying our country with his socialist ideas.
I hope that cleared it up.
I've been clear here a million times that my issues with him have nothing to do with race.
I'd vote for Condi, I'd vote for Allen West.....In most cases, I'd vote for Powell.........And for months here, I supported Herman Cain.
Anyone who thinks the above statement was racist, doesn't know me.
Thanks.
Geo

Thanks for pointing that out fly. If you've EVER read anything I've posted you obviously know it is not about race.
I hope I've CLEARED it up. I don't care for 1 billionth of a second that the man is black.
later,
Geo
