I LOVE that Obama is meeting with African youth today, BUT am I the only one. . .

1. It doesn't matter what Obama does.

The bigoted shit flows like the Mississippi.

3. truly. If he didn't meet with them, they would gin up some outrage.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

2. Yes?

:shrug:

[AspenRose]

4. No, you aren't the only one.

5. Why does President Obama hate the middle aged?!!!!111!? nt

[Clio the Leo]

6. This is an intelligent man speaking with a room full of intelligent young men and women....

.... the last thing I want to worry about right now is what some idiot has to say on the matter.

Civility and intellectual discussion cleanses the soul.

7. Nope. Expecting incoming bigoted shit any minute now.

:hi:

8. I take it as a given, and I avoid outlets where I'm likely to see that stuff.

That means I find my news selectively online. I've learned which blogs can be counted on for a bunch of Fox News/Teabagger/Freeper-esque comments.

It's like being able to count on the asinine, ignorant, race-baiting ramblings of the likes of Rush and Palin. Somebody alert me when they say something remotely civil and reasonable. Otherwise, there's no reason for me to wonder what they're saying.
