A few of my favorites are:

1. Destroying the best healthcare system in the world and lying about it ("If you like your plan, you can keep it")
2. Requiring federal funding of abortions, both in the US and abroad
3. Stifling the recovery by raising taxes on small business
4. Showing utter contempt for Israel
5. Emboldening America's enemies
6. Supporting rioters and rolling back race relations by 50 years
7. Wasting billions of "stimulus" dollars on unnecessary porkbarrel projects
8. Blaming George Bush for everything that goes wrong
9. Taking credit for Bush's accomplishments (Bailouts, capture/killing of Bin Laden, etc.)

oldies, pls take your racist nonsense back to stormfront and get out of here thanks
What's racist about what I said?  People should never riot to protest discrimination, whether it's real or perceived.

We already established Oldies doesn't give a fyck about black people.
Wrong again.  I just don't think that rioting and killing "racist cops" is the way to stop discrimination.  That sort of behavior reinforces white racism by suggesting that all blacks are criminals and victims of police brutality.

Or women, gays, or poors for that matter.

Oldies is the worst kind of person: bigoted, ignorant, and too stubborn to accept facts to change his views. Anytime he is challenged he hits up and digs through Google to reaffirm his confirmation bias. Hell, even things that are universally agreed upon across the spectrum (e.g. Obama getting credit for killing Bin Laden), he refuses to attribute.
What have I said or done to suggest that I don't care about blacks, women, gays, or poor people?  And as for confirmation bias, I feel like you do that when you ignore my info.  I see you citing sources like Wikipedia, the Huffington Post, the Daily Kos, and MSNBC.
