Obama's speech to students today

[CRedskinsRule]

and for those who argue that the upset was over race, how can you even be on a frickin football board, and see all the positive ways that athletes of all races interact with kids, and parents are not sending letters of protest. If Clinton Portis goes to any school outside of Dallas, and talks to the kids about being the best you can be, or Chris Cooley goes to any school and talks about safe internet usage, are ANY parents writing letters to the editor... NO. The outrage (which was overblown no doubt) was due to Pres. Obama's politics being hated by many, not because of his race. people who can't see that or want to play the race factor are as ignorant or blind followers as those on the other side of the event

So, you're going to say that NO part of ANY of the outrage was about his race. I already acknowledged that it wasn't the majority. If you think that 0% of parents were upset about Obama's race before his politics, you're flat out wrong.

I'm not trying to play the race card. I'm telling you what I know to be a fact based on my fiancee's mother's experiences. She's a teacher in a school for Christ sake. Why would she fake outrage and call us? What would that accomplish?
