An interesting read this morning . . .
"If you denigrate a racial group, you're racist.
If you denigrate women, you're sexist.
If you denigrate Mormons, you're hip.
No one would openly suggest that you shouldn't vote for Hillary Clinton because a woman can't lead the country, especially an ornery one.
Nobody would dare say that you shouldn't vote for Barack Hussein Obama because he's black, or of Muslim descent, or because he has a name that sounds like a terrorist. One Clinton worker even apologized for alluding to Obama's use of drugs as a youth, so apparently it's wrong to disparage former drug users, too.
But nobody is shy about saying you shouldn't vote for Romney simply because he's a Mormon. It doesn't even register on the PC-O-Meter."
The article makes a good point. Interestingly, I've heard someone say that exact thing about Hillary and someone sent me an e-mail saying (in so many words) that Barack can't be trusted because he's Muslim. That is why it is so important to really look to the individual to find out the truth and what you as a voter really value.
