Please though, point me to all the posts that have led you to the conclusion that "race is always an issue" with me. Frankly, I don't know what you're talking about and I don't really care to look myself.

Just because I think he is a hack job politician who got elected because he told everyone exactly what they wanted to hear in no way means that I am not more than proud of my country for electing it's first African American president. It is a monumental day in our history...one that we should all be proud of. I will respect the office of the President, pray for him, and support him while in office.

Get off your high horse and go bug a tour guide. Maybe make fun of a fast food worker or something.......

Hon, you're not insulting me at all, but your unnecessary color comments could be insulting to others. No, there's no need for me to go to other threads to find other comments you've made. Does associating black people with "malt liquor" ring a bell? How about "brother man?" A joke? omg! What kind of jokes are those? I'm Greek and Italian and I find it very offensive when I hear derogatory comments about Italians. I'm sure some people of color find your comments insulting when you make comments like the ones you've just made.

Go ahead and keep bringing up my tour guide and fast food posts. That's nothing new, because you bring it up everytime you have the chance, and that's o.k. Let's just keep it even. Based your interpretation of my "fast food" and "tour guide" posts, you can continue to think I'm on a high horse, stuck up or whatever you want to think about me. Just know that based on your "Black Jesus" "negro", "malt liquor", and other unnecessary comments you've posted about people of color, I'll continue to think you're a racist, redneck pig. mkay? :)

You're too sensitive. I'm 100% Sicilian and I laugh at Italian jokes.

Are your shoes Italian? Cuz wherever you go, Dago. Say it aloud. It'll make more sense.

You got a hubby?

Mind if I call him

Kinda funny (and not in a hehe haha sense) how the Japanese made money off of an Italain stereotype all these years.

PM_Mama00, if Italian jokes don't bother you, that's fine, but I find them to be very offensive and I don't take them lightly.

He's not racist. He just thinks the off-color jokes that he's repeating are funny. I wasn't too moved by "Black Jesus" until he proudly likened it to "Barack the Magic Negro." That is satire that is funnier the first time around.

On another note, calling him a "redneck pig" isn't any better. You're a white person typing to a white person but it's unnecessary to assume he's a redneck. Plus, the concept of a "racist redneck pig" is certainly a stereotype rooted in class bias.

What's your point? I know plenty of Italians who actually DO look like Mario. Actually I'm kind of flattered that they chose an Italian to be a video game Superhero.

I am paying attention. You seem to be more intrigued with the Chinese stereotyping a little Italian guy than Italians themselves.

Truth is, most Italian men grow to look like that. And then they where Speedos on the beach. And Mario's teeth are a lot nice than most Italians. You could be walking down the street in Italy or Sicily, see the hottest guy ever, and he smiles and you're like "WOAH!"

So what was your point?

And I'm still waiting for someone to answer the thong and apparel question.

PS... DrPhil... did you really used to be DSTChaos?

yes, I have seen the speedos thing...not cool at all.

However most MEN due to sedentary lifestyle tend to grow like that, why do you think it's limited to Italian men?

Based on my threads and posts I've started and some of the things that I've posted on here, has given him and others the idea that I'm this stuck up, drama queen on a high horse. Well, I'm not. To me, his posts give me the idea that he's racist. He has his opinions about me based on my posts, and I'll continue to have mine about him based on his posts.

So what if I'm a white person typing to a white person. There's still a difference. He's a redneck and I'm not. He probably watches NASCAR.:rolleyes:

They say that a rising tide lifts all boats. However, some of us were so excited to see the tide come in, we moored ourselves to the dock, and are now experiencing (metaphorically, of course) an ironic gurgling death.

Yet more unfortunate statistics in the Great Hope Floats Tide Lifting Problem Disaster of 2009. Sigh . . . how could a kind decent God allow this sort of thing to happen?

I have noticed that too and you can express that sentiment without the off-color jokes. It is a silly distraction.

Because for Italian men, it's due to all the pasta they eat.

You are no better than the "redneck" you speak of. That's a pretty big blanket statement. And I know plenty of Northerners who aren't even close to being rednecks who love Nascar. Slow your roll.

But on a sidenote: I thought you were black?

See...and that's where you go wrong...many people know better, stop watching TV and thinking that the media is feeding the masses that rubbish and the masses believe it. Talk to some people that have common sense and we will tell you that altho WE ARE ECSTATIC about Obama being president, he is HUMAN like everyone else and we don't expect him to fix everything in the next 4 years BUT we are HOPING and praying he is not mess up like Bush was.

i don't plan on closing my eyes and say...Oh it's Barack and he can get away with it...much of the opposite to that, he probably will be scrutinized more than any president ever was...but NOBODY expects him to be perfect.

Actually, I'm not a redneck at all. I don't really watch NASCAR but I will gladly go to a race every once in a while. They are pretty fun. You don't know me from Adam so let's not start the stereotyping game.

Please though. Enlighten me on how I am a racist. You just opened that bag so why don't you back yourself up.

I believe I have already stated my feelings pertaining to the color of his skin and what I think about the fact that he is the first to represent his race in the White House.

Where does all the money that the vendors make off of Obama apparel and thongs (as in panties) go?

And, this is a serious question, why did they refer to him as Barack H. Obama while being sworn in? Why leave out the middle name?
