If it’s fair for George Will, Pat Buchanan and Rush Limbaugh to assume that Colin Powell is voting for Obama just because they’re both black, it’s equally fair to assume that Will, Buchanan and Limbaugh are voting for McCain just because he’s white. Which means they are admitting that they’re not voting for Obama because he’s black.
These are the logic problems which arise when your speech center is located smack in the middle of your lizard brain.

“…your speech center is located smack in the middle of your lizard brain.”
Or in that fleshy region just above where your legs connect to your body. Heh.
Good morning, Jane. Sorry for the visual so early.
Bill Maher juxtaposed race and voting three weeks ago in a very insightful “New Rules” segment. Bill would have said that George, Pat and Rush can’t help themselves, they are a product of thier upbringing, the schools they attended, and the neighborhoods they grew up in.
The soft bigotry of low punditry expectations.
Who cares if they won’t vote for Obama because he’s black.They are only making John McCain look bad.They could blind fold Obama and tie his hands behind his back, they still couldn’t beat him.You know why? Because black is beautiful and change is good, that’s Obama? I think that there afraid that once you go black,you’ll never go back!They wear black everyday,why not vote for it!
