If race-baiting by a campaign more immoral than gay-baiting?
There is a lot of fury about race-baiting from people who have spent two months defending gay-baiting. This begs the question. Is one form of bigotry less immoral? I don't think so. We should condemn both race-baiting and gay-baiting equally.

3. All forms of racism are not only equally wrong, they're evidence of ignorance
Some of the primitive thinking going on with this board the last two weeks could write a textbook on sociobiology.

4. Are any of you campaign staffers
going to start talking about the issues? This whole game of who has the bigger dick and who can insult or scam the other candidate better is so high school.

Let's ratchet up the level of discourse here, kids.
