My remark concerning you was a joke. You stated you had a sense of humor, you neglected to clarify that it was a good sense, apparently it was not. As proven to you earlier, the definition of racist and racism still follow the earlier definition of race, which has fallen by the wayside. In other words, your definition of race is not the word being used as the origin of racist and racism. You must now learn to divorce the new definition of race from the definition of racist and racism. It may be difficult for you based on your posts, but it is worth you trying.

Now where did the racist remark originate? By the way, which definition of racist are you using? Because according to the one you provided: <blockquote>A belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race</blockquote> That comment isn't the least bit racist. No inferrence of superiority or inferiority in there. Or are you perhaps using a different definition of 'racist' now? Of course I'm sure you won't actually see this Chris, it seems as though my posts aren't appearing on your computer. Technically I'm not really sure how that could happen, but it seems the only logical explanation why you might not be seeing my posts. Well, the only logical explanation outside of a startling level of immaturity that I'm sure no one here would exhibit.

Yeah, they all look the same to me too.

That comment isn’t the least bit racist. No inferrence of superiority or inferiority in there. Or are you perhaps using a different definition of ‘racist’ now?

Seems like a racist remark. I guess you didn't see that either. By the way, did Stev say anything? They all look the same to you? Seems like a racist remark. I guess you didn’t see that either.

For example, whether you are pro war or agsint it, no onw would argue that Saddam Hussein was a nasty peice of work and deserved to be removed. Following his cpature, most would have agreed that his removal was a step in the right direction. Now, people are more divided on this matter. Let's also bear in mnd that most pools ignore the distributino of those surveyes. Most polls taken from Iraqi's are distorted because the responses from Kurds will be ovberwhelmingly pro occupation. A receont poll by Zogby shows that most US troops think the invasions was about 9011 retribution, in spite of denials by war appologists. http://www.zogby.com/news/ReadNews.dbm?ID=1075 Good point Ros,
