You know the Advocate ran a cartoon about Bill Clinton being hauled away from the Democratic National Convention for being a protester...ha ha.... It was a cartoon, and I'm glad no one on the left wrote in to complain.You can tune in 1340 AM all day ling for right wing radio ,so it's not like the right is being picked on,denied freedom of the press,or civil liberties....I thought The Sunni & the Shia were the only ones that argued over trivial matters.

Mr. Newman is exactly correct about this cartoon. And it goes with many of the bias cartoons the VA has been running.

You would never guess they are left leaning would you? Comment From: Lotex  (Report this comment as a violation)

For all the rants that the previous poster defends, his words proclaim "I am not what my statements say I am!"

Sorry, young man. Learn one thing. WORDS have meaning. Your abundant use of them weakens your arguments and reveal your true feelings. No one is twisting your words.

BigJ, I suppose you next will tell us you have lots of white friends.

You are a sad stereotype Comment From: BIGJ  (Report this comment as a violation)


Lotex and Brainbent, Thank you for twisting my words around into something that is NOT.
I live in one of Victoria’s surrounding counties all my life, I can tell you at work, in a place of business etc, I hear comments like, “ No N!993R President”.

Now on the issue at hand.

Brainbent.
Where did I say if you are white, then you are a racist? WHERE DID I SAID THAT. WHERE? You are making things up, son. Maybe it is YOU Brainbent, who should look in the mirror.
The point I am trying to make is that Victoria Advocate is made of mostly white people. Am I right? It is owned and run by White people, is it? Then they would had a say and power to stop the editorial cartoon. But there are people who say it is racist against white people.

Lotex.
If you read the first paragraph it explains my reason behind supporting the editorial board and the cartoon. I hear people, when they think I am not around. I hear them in the restaurants, at work, and on WOAI Hate radio. YES THOSE COMMENTS ARE UNDER THE TABLE COMMENTS. Don’t blame me blame those who make those comments.

I am like that, if the shoes fits wear it. If you are supporting another candidate other than Obama, that is fine with me. That is your right as an AMERICAN.
If you are not supporting a candidate based on race, but using excuses to hide it behind code words, then I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT.
I hear someone calling Obama terrorist. I asked based on what? No edvience.
In one blog, a DumbA$$ said Obama will enslave whites. I said based on what? No answer.
Then you have some local Democrats. One of them say we believe in Health Care, anti-Iraq war, Education improvements, and other things. I ask “you voted for Hillary”.
They answer yes and now we are voting for McCain. Then I ask didn’t Hillary and Obama have similar positions?

All I hear is shuttering. I am sick and tied of the games.

Lets not mention this. How come people of Texas still voted for John Cornyn in 2002 over Ron Kirk, even though Cornyn mention he backed George Wallance in 1968? Comment From: Riverboat  (Report this comment as a violation)

Ah, another Zappa fan. How about this one: "Everyone in this room is wearing a uniform and don't kid yourselves."

I'm grateful that the Advocate ran this bit of execrable opinion. It's a window to the mentality of some of Obama's supporters.

What about BigJ's "under the table" comments, his "implied comments", and out right anti-anglo commentaries? Aren't they racist as well. Or does he get a "free pass" as the author of the letter proclaims. Comment From: ragman  (Report this comment as a violation)

"I'm not black, but there are a whole lot of times I wish I could say I weren't white."
Frank Zappa Comment From: brainbent  (Report this comment as a violation)

Wait, so if you are "white", then you are a racist?

I think a quick glance in the mirror is in order.. Comment From: BIGJ  (Report this comment as a violation)

Mr. Newman, if the advocate is so racist, then how come many of them are WHITE.You see the problem is not the Advocate, the real problem are those who hide and use under-the-table comments. I wonder have you though about that?I guess either you didn't or that you didn't want to.
