contrary comment would be that I believe (and I've made no secret of
this) that racism is one of the most-fundamental and critical issues
in this country, and one must have a higher level of tolerance for
racist speech and behavior to support Hillary Clinton.
As to your feeling about Muslims, I've noticed you have a tendency
like the rightwing talk show hosts to emphasize Barack's middle name,
or at least middle initial (BHO you will frequently write), but I
don't draw too much of an inference about your view on Muslims from
that. And I've made no study, and intend to make no study, of whether
your history of postings reflects an anti-Muslim bias.
