Racial epithet? You mean "President Obama"? It's the only reference to him in the article.

No ads for me - you must not know how to operate your browser.

"His buddy"? This isn't one of those "smear by association" sorts of things like the way the Tea Party thinks about people with cooties, is it? What the fuck is it about?

If he's on the same side as Assange, then he's working for human freedom, the right to make informed decisions, and the right to expose crime without fear of persecution, and it's EXACTLY the side I expect Democrats to be on.
