Is this racist?

I monitor a small town newspaper in south Texas that allows people to post blogs (social, political, science news, etc.). Please believe me when I say that it makes Freeperville seem tame in comparison. Setting aside the political motivations of the blogger, I would like to know if anyone else thinks the comments that I excerpted were racist.




Below is an example of what nitwits voted the traitor American hating muslim in the white house.

Let's give this thread a few more hours. You may win the award for the thread with that response.

Did you click the link that takes you to the actual blog which also includes a 2008 Youtube video?

However, it's the first time that I've ever heard milk referred to as "toxic".

I was merely checking to make certain that I wasn't the only person who got burned up reading that crap. As a matter of fact, the author earns the award.

Plus it's also a good indication of what "trickles down" from Freeperville to the minds(???) of the masses in Moronville.

My apologies to any morons out there who just read the prior sentence.

trickles down from freeperville, it is often a substance most foul. It doesn't hurt to remind people of it once in awhile though.
