Has anyone else noticed

racist rethug bumper stickers? I saw one the other day that said, 01/20/2013 Obama's last day as President. That one wasn't necessarily racist and it didn't upset me, because I know that guy will feel like a dumbass when Obama wins again and he has to remove that sticker.lol But I saw one today that enraged me. Just today as I was pulling into a parking space, this car was getting ready to pull out of the space beside me. I happened to glance over at the car because I saw Obama's name in all capital letters, I was thinking this was a fellow Obama supporter. As I looked closer to the words underneath Obama's name I was shocked and disgusted!! The bumper sticker read: OBAMA the affirmative action president. I was just taken aback, because I've seen some disgusting racist rethug bumper stickers online, but never in person. What the hell is wrong with these people, having an African American President is that revolting to them. They are acting like kids who can't have their way and throw temper tantrums!! I don't remeber Clinton and Bush being disrespected like this. Its insane how they can't just get over it.

that works there hates Obama because he is black. Plain and simple. I don't even talk to him when I go over there any more. No need to get infected with stupidity. Any way how can we reason with stupid?

The OP said the second one (Affirmative Action President) was racist and I agree 100%.

Ruby. Its about blatant racism on display, that we can't pretend doesn't exist or bury our heads in the sand. Furthermore, 1/22/09 End of an Error doesn't pertain to Bush's race now does it? They are suggesting Obama was hand picked to fill a quota and some how he didn't earn his presidency. There is nothing I can do about racist rethug bumper stickers because of freedom of speech. This thread was started to discuss and maybe vent a little about the overt racism and hate thrown at Obama from the right.

philanderer in chief, Clinton was called a murderer, a drug runner, a rapist. Bush was called a chimp (imagine if they called Obama a chimp), Bush was a deserter, a coke head, a drunk etc.
