I''ve just been hiding. DH has been sleeping. I can''t stand debates for some reason. Never could. I read HERE, and listened to live-feed clips here and there, but Palin''s voice gets on my nerves for some reason. I''m really sensitive to voices. Must be the singer in me...

Oh thing trust me..you really don''t want to there. I have HAD people be racist against me for being white. That is complete BULL CRAP!
Oh I do want to go there! Have you ever taken a class on race, class or gender? It''s a basic tenet-without power, there is no such thing as racism. Have you really been denied any opportunities because you''re white?
I am leaving this thread right now before I get myself banned from PS. Night thing..thanks AS USUAL for the fun.
You''re welcome!
You know what..let''s just agree to stay out of each others ways since things seem to always go badly. I think that would be a good idea.
What went so badly?

Come on, guys.
Sarah was offended. She''s entitled to her feelings, whether you feel they are justified or not.
But see that''s the thing Lucky, I am not entitled to my feelings. And whenever I try to express them I get attacked.
Mmm hmmm! It''s a contrast thing. My guy (pic is over in the faces to names thread in the Hangout) is fairskinned with dark eyes and hair. Love that coloring combo, it''s always been my favorite. Blondes? Nice but...meh...Date: 10/2/2008 10:40:46 PM

I think the black suit worked well with her hair. Must be a white thang (hehe) because FI (yes he''s white folks) has dark hair and looks hot whenever he wears a black top...

You''re the one that''s upset. How does someone that isn''t upset stay ''out of your way''?Date: 10/2/2008 10:36:58 PM

Not really Sarah. You expressed your feelings. Some of us disagreed with your view. You became more and more insistent that your view was correct. We just didn''t capitulate to your version of racism. That isn''t being "attacked". That is recognizing that what YOU believe in WE didn''t.Date: 10/2/2008 10:42:46 PM

So when you state your opinion, you''re expressing your feelings, but when I state my opinion, I''m attacking you? Huh! How does that work?

That''s right, it''s my fault. And I am ''paranoid.'' Let''s see in the past few weeks alone..you''ve questioned why I am such a ''rabid conservative'' (that was the phrase you used, correct? correct me if I am wrong..maybe I am remembering it incorrectly..but I do remember distinctly you demanding I explain why I am so conservative - when I am actually pretty moderate), you''ve questioned my personal finances, and now you''re even questioning my education. When I state my opinions or experiences - you want details that I don''t ask for from you. I accept your opinion, state that I disagree, and move on. You demand some excuse for why I feel the way I do or try to find some reason why I feel the way I do - you start questioning my background immediately. Why can''t you just accept someone''s opinion, state you disagree and why, and move on?
P.S. Yes, I have taken Soc.

It seems weird to ask someone to state they disagree and why if you aren''t willing to say why you have the feelings that you do. Just sayin
Oh the point wasn''t just Soc, it was particular classes on race and gender which is what she was referencing (and you took as a personal insult).

Then let me be more specific I have studied both race and gender in the classroom. I am willing to say why I feel the way I do..when I am not being attacked or demanded of that I explain why I feel the way I do. It''s rude and ridiculous.

ETA: And one more thing! That''s right. I''m educated. So scary!
They said she knew how to "debate" which DOES mean answering only what you want to answer, spinning, and skirting around questions you don''t like, and doing it somewhat skillfully.Date: 10/2/2008 11:00:04 PM

How can they say that...she didn''t answer most questions and when she did, most of the time she made no sense.I WILL say that her sound bites were better than normal for her, but at the same time, she just made no sense.
