Yeah this isn't news. People troll this shit all the time.
[QUOTE=draugur;46428535]Sorry but it's more than just a few vocal idiots. I live in a mostly republican state and I can tell you for a fact that I have seen more than a "few" racist vocal idiots. Working retail I was exposed to maybe at least 20 a day that were very vocal about their hated for "that n- Obama" I see many bumper stickers with Obama as a monkey, or something with a banana, or my personal favourite it just straight up said, "Deport Obongo the socialist n- president."
It may be a vocal minority in some parts of the country, but it sure as hell isn't around here. Sorry if I'm a little crass about it.[/QUOTE]
I can tell you for a fact that I have seen more than a "few" radicals who build their case against ~the patriarchy~ using reposts from tumblr and who firmly believe that republicans are old white racist rich guys out to screw over the country
but I don't go and say that this makes them a significant part of the left in a serious context

I work retail smack dab in the middle of the bible belt, and very seldom do I deal with people saying the word "nigger", let alone saying something like "that nigger Obama". Only one time in the year that I've worked in retail have I heard someone call out Obama, and it was when a handicapped gentlmen was complaining about the cost of his meds increasing because of taxes.
The evidence you, and I, just presented is completely anecdotal, unreliable, and useless in a discussion. Unless you're willing to wear a go-pro for a 9 hour shift and film every time someone says a racial slur about Obama, I'm calling bullshit on your nonsense.
I lived in Arkansas during Obama's election and re-election and I can fucking 100% guarantee you this is not the first time someone's called Obama the n word.
In a high school, no less.
By the teachers
No joke
[QUOTE=draugur;46428493]The Republican party ladies and gentlemen. Give them a big round of applause.[/QUOTE]
As a democrat, I'd just like to point out that what you just said is fucking stupid.
I guess a majority of America is racist, then, since we let them take majority control. It's all a race thing, yep.

I worked retail in Florida for a while and I had someone call me a nigger once because I wouldn't let him use our employee bathroom in the back hall.

vast right wing conspiracy right here folks

Then why wouldn't ya? It's a bathroom like any other isn't it? You probably don't get too many people asking to use the employee's bathroom anyway.

Employee's only, not really hard to figure out
[QUOTE=_Kent_;46428444]Can't say I'm surprised, but from the title I thought it would be someone in a position of power, not an anonymous caller.[/QUOTE]
That's what I thought, too. I was like this is going to be great, but it was just some random guy phoning in from his couch. This is about as news worthy as the ants in my backyard.
I like how 'Repealing Obamacare is going to get Hillary Clinton elected' makes sense to this guy. How?
This kind of stuff happens all the time on C-SPAN, people usually don't get racial though.
Guys, come on, of course this is a prank. There's never been a racist republican before, so why would one just suddenly show up now?
Is there anyone in the United States that hasn't heard that term directed at him?
