I did not say that he should, I asked why wouldn't he. I think the issue is a chapter in human history that has been glossed over - it is worthy of debate. In my view until it is openly discussed there will be an undercurrent of il feelings. That is just my opinion, nothing more, nothing less.

ace, that's true.
The bills were introduced to pander to the extremist fringe of the base and has nothing to do with liberals.

I agree the bills have nothing to do with liberals. However, to the degree that liberals focus on matters of no importance has everything to do with their choices. It is legitimate to question that.

You can attempt to sugar coat it anyway you want, but the point of his commentary was racially inflammatory, with ignorant references to Obama's family and the Mau Maus.

B.S. people who are racists are and have been "inflamed". Other people want to understand Obama's world view and how it evolved. There are blaring questions and if you want to play the race card every time the questions are discussed that is diversionary.
