With this, no one can say it's not racist

Did you see where death threats on this President's life are up 400% compared to the former president--George W. Bush?

That makes up to 30 per day for the Secret Service to keep up with.

If you do the math, for one year, that comes to nearly 11,000 threats.

How do you keep up with that kind of insanity?

And how, exactly, can anyone, let alone leaders of political groups or news organizatitions--Fox "News"--claim that at least some of the obvious irrationality President Obama is being exposed to, isn't partly based on racism?

How can it be claimed that South Carolina's Joe Wilson did his disrepctful, unmannered, classless "shout out" at the President during his speech to a joint session of Congress wasn't at least partly "okay" to this chucklehead, because that same President is African-American?

I don't think it can be claimed otherwise.

And when you put this hostility with the fact that death threats on this President have shot up as high as they have, it's clear the problem--and the source--is, at least in part, racism.

Now, then, can we just accept this as fact, try to fix it and move on?

That would make sense and we could possibly get on to our solutions.
