Can we say extreme prejudice? (sm)

Now where have I heard that kind of sentiment before......hmmmm....oh, I know. It was Hitler. In your statement you have shown a complete disregard for life. In my opinion, anyone who would so enthusiastically support genocide, regardless of the circumstances, is simply disgusting and a waste of good air.

The fact that you use that every time someone opposes what Obama is doing is absolutely ridiculous in itself. I have seen very little out of Obama that is worthy of praise. I admit that he ran one he!! of a campaign and I admit that he did a good job in allowing the seals to take out those pirates and save that captain. I applaud him for overcoming racism and prejudice to become the first African-American president. Other than that....I don't see much to praise him for. He has ran our deficit much higher than Bush ever did in a much shorter time. He has taken over banks and now the auto industry. He goes all over the world apologizing and making us look pathetic and weak. He strong armed things with the Chrysler bankruptcy to allow unions to get much more than they deserved. On top of this....our government continues to spend money like we have stockpiles of it hidden somewhere even though we don't.

I think maybe you should take your blinders off and see our president for what he really is. A smooth talking liar who said anything and everything to get elected. He has the mainstream media in his pocket and constantly says one thing while he does another. Wake up and realize that this has nothing to do with prejudice. This is just an American disagreeing with what our government is doing and I have that right. So stop calling me racist just because I don't kiss Barry's butt like ya'll seem to do.

Can't see how this has anything to do with how I feel about Obama. He has done and said quite enough for me to base an opinion on my knowledge of his actions. Find another word to sling around. Prejudice won't work. Neither will racism.

I think abortions should continue to be legalized but late-term abortions stopped. If doctors and/or certain hospitals do not believe in abortion, I believe they have the right to refuse to perform it. That is their right. They shouldn't be forced to do so for fear of losing funding or their job. I lean conversative but I'm not a right-wing nut job. I want a smaller government. I want people to grow up and learn how to be responsible for themselves instead of depending on others to provide for them. I do not want to reward laziness and stupidity....which is what we are heading for. We should reward hard work and achievement. Not everyone has a right to a house, car, etc. You have to earn that stuff. I don't want government telling me what I can and can't have done medically or for government to decide whether I should have treatment for an illness or not.

Like I said....I may lean conservative but I see the fault in both political parties....which.....it doesn't appear that you do. Everything is still Bush's fault in your eyes.

Psychiatry Ponders Whether Extreme Bias Can Be an Illness

The 48-year-old man turned down a job because he feared that a co-worker would be gay. He was upset that gay culture was becoming mainstream and blamed most of his personal, professional and emotional problems on the gay and lesbian movement.

These fixations preoccupied him every day. Articles in magazines about gays made him agitated. He confessed that his fears had left him socially isolated and unemployed for years: A recovering alcoholic, the man even avoided 12-step meetings out of fear he might encounter a gay person.

Darrel A. Regier of the American Psychiatric Association favors research but says it is not clear that establishing a diagnosis would be useful. (By Marvin Joseph -- The Washington Post)

He had a fixed delusion about the world, said Sondra E. Solomon, a psychologist at the University of Vermont who treated the man for two years. He felt under attack, he felt threatened.

Mental health practitioners say they regularly confront extreme forms of racism, homophobia and other prejudice in the course of therapy, and that some patients are disabled by these beliefs. As doctors increasingly weigh the effects of race and culture on mental illness, some are asking whether pathological bias ought to be an official psychiatric diagnosis.
