Why White Supremacists Support Barack Obama How do racists, anti-Semites and all-purpose hate-mongers view the possibility of America’s first black president? Not necessarily the way you think they would.

The difference being: I'm not surprised.

That was a pretty stupid article. Granted, I only read the first two paragraphs before I remembered that I'm deliberatly avoiding speech that pisses me off.
