If you read racisim in this post then it came from within you !
The simple fact is we are all americans when one loses we all lose ,when one persons right to free speech is quashed then everyones right to free speech is quashed .
Is that the America you want ? one with less freedom ? just keep the lawsuits coming !! because in the end that is what you will win a country where we have no freedoms !!
make no mistake only the Racist will find a problem with this tee shirt ,those who believe in the right of freedom speech will see it for what it is a tasteless expression on a tee shirt but one that is protected and by the Constitution !
Read the article, Obama's not suing anyone or trying to quash anyones right to free speech. Get you facts straight, the publisher who own the copyright is thinking about suing. And if you don't think that the bar owner who is doing this you are even more of a moron than I already thought. The place where this is going on is one of the most racist places in America. Cobb county is on of those wonderful places where they drove all of the Blacks out of the county back in the 1890's and have never let any move back. It was done violently and there were people killed in the process and no one was compensated for the land and other property that was lost in the process. This is one of the places in America where Blacks and other minorities who aren't white don't get off the main highways because it's not safe. So you tell me, do you think the owner of the bar might be racist, because I do. You take a high and mighty tone about rights and come off sounding all indignant but you can't be bothered to get any of the facts, you're an idiot and I have a Thesaurus, so if I run out of names that mean stupid, I can look up more.

Of course I am no other way to explain it !
I mean many touting equal rights and equal protection ! the guy has to be a Moron !
Lets just say that there is no affirmative action for whites (Has some provisions for women but that is by necessity of the action and not as an inclusive integral provision ),, if you want to know what affirmative action is and does ,you can look it up for yourself .
you would not take the word of a Moron would you ??
no, I wouldn't because you have already demonstrated that you are willing to spout patriotic sounding nonsense instead of discussing the article about the shirt which has nothing to do with affirmative action. While I'm able to admit that there have been some abuses of affirmative action it has mostly done a good job of correcting one of the greatist inequalities in history. To believe that things would have been OK if we just left things alone is naive at best. I don't know how old you are, or if you have ever lived in a Jim Crow state when it was the law, I suspect not, because you seem to think you're the one being denied something by the minorities who benifit from affimative action. If you have never seen it up close and personal, you haven't got a clue, but please believe me when I tell you that we haven't as a nation begun to balance the scale of equality and the next time you feel like you, as a white person are being put upon somehow by affirmative action, just remember that you are one of the ones who is not supposed to need it. If a White man can't make it in America it's not the fault of affimative action, the folks on top have the most options. I'm going to skip calling you a name this time just to show that I can play nice.

OBAMA has evident Muslim sympathies, having been raised by a Muslim father and his family and having had contact with the Islamic world all during his life.

He is the perfect Islamic sleeper-cell agent, actually now on the verge of taking over the US for the Islamic interests if he should become president.

He talks of uniting America, yet he is very divisive. Only "moonbeam" democrat, leftist, anti-American liberals might identify with him, but he is the antithesis of what is American; he is an internationalist.

How long before Obama feels the need to reconnect with his roots and assert his Muslim heritage as he has done with his race.?

He'll evidently do it only if he should be elected president.

Real Americans CANNOT take that chance.

Believe me, the man has divided loyalties, both national and ideological.

Vote for a real American, one who has proved himself in combat fighting for this country, and not some social-climbing elitist who would have been a draft dodger if he had been called.

President Bush has spoken TRUE!

There is a saying that if the shoe fits, wear it.

The reaction of Obama and the Democrats is like if you're walking in a crowd of people and you suddenly hear someone yell out, "ASSHOLE!", so you turn around all offended demanding to know who called you that.

That sort of sensitivity and taking it so personally means only one thing:

THE SHOE FITS!

By saying "Defending my own people" that is a racist statement, and shows you to be just that-should not "ALL people" be AMERICANS???!!!??? regardless of color ,gender, etc??!!??

And Mr. Somalistic
How are you saying ppl are racist for supporting Obama? He is paving the way for African Americans. It will be a breakthrough in AA history if he wins. So you Mr. Racist guy go and get some intelligence. By the way I am a college student, I should know more than that of you. At least I’m not racist.

Let's not all act so shocked that there are racists in Georgia comparing Barack to a monkey. It's GEORGIA people, not exactly the most enlightened place in the world! We can't expect the deep South of the USA to be completely free of racism so quickly after the civil rights movement. That sort of ignorance and hate can take decades or even centuries to overcome. The fact that we even have a viable black candidate for president after over 200 years of white domination is enough of a miracle. Let's not get carried away and expect that every white man in America is going to accept it, because the ugly truth is that many won't.

If you think that somehow Barack is going to turn America into a Muslim nation, you've got some serious problems. A black man with a Muslim name runs for president, and the xenophobic and racist truth of America rears its ugly head. Americans who truly believe in freedom and equality should denounce this type of racist drivel.

Barack is the one candidate that can save America from the abyss George W. Bush has thrown us into. We need to give him that chance.

Hussein is the name of one of our staunchest allies in the Middle East, the late King Hussein of Jordan. So, I assume by bringing that name up in bold letters, you are not, in fact, being an ignorant xenophobic loser, but rather trying to connect Barack to this close ally of the United States. Well done.

My distinguished colleagues and I have a terrific get rich quick scam to pull on Obama supporters at the convention. We ordered twenty thousand Plain white T shirts and are planning to sell them as "Obama " shirts for twenty bucks a pop. When the stupid Obamazombies say something like "theres nothing to this shirt" We simply say "Thats right, its the PERFECT obama T shirt, That'll be twenty bucks.

You asked for an example of extended rights ,,I gave you one ! live with it !

This thread is about more than a tee shirt or copyright infringement ,,look at the first post and tell me what that post is about ?

the first post makes this topic about the first amendment to the Constitution !

Freedom of Speech !

I have stood solid on equal protection , and equal rights , I see no need for one group or several groups to be divided along minority lines .

we are all Americans division by our Government is a sure way to keep us from being strong as a whole nation ,,if you can't see that then go ahead and be weak in your minority instead of strong as a people ALL PEOPLE !! no color ,no race,no division !

which is whats afforded by the Constitution ! The Government has divided the population don't you think its time that those divisions be taken away ?

But of course Im the Moron !!

Close ally is a little strong. Britain is a close ally, Jordon is not.

Floppy ears smelly BO will not be elected this nov. He is a novice appeaser and it shows.

Suddenly I realize that both George Bush and Barack Obama look remarkably like Curious George.

Curious isn't it?

That would make you the same as the KKK and the Nazis. You call for violence against people and that is not what MLK had in mind.

Let me respond by saying you (yeah, and I meant YOU) people make me sick. I hope when Barrack gets the white house he puts all White people in slavery and see how they like it. Or for Black history month all white should be fire hosed everywhere they go, like how the hillbillies used to do the marchers.
either that or lynched.
