Today I was racist

Today, I proved that I am mean nasty not-nice racist white person by voting for Romney.

Well, okay, technically I proved that last week, since I did early voting.

And I didn't so much vote for Romney as I voted against the administration that allows Eric  "Fast and Furious" Holder to stay in office and doesn't seem to believe in the War Powers act.

And in actuality, if you're going to call me a racist for voting against a black candidate, then I can call you racist for voting for a black candidate. Or I can call you a racist for voting against a white candidate.

Can't we all just agree that
  1. Accusations of Racism are the Godwin's Law of politics, and
  2. We have much better reasons for hating each other's guts? Skin color is so superficial. Let's hate each other for deep and meaningful differences in philosophy. 
Play me out, Blue October!

Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
Hate me in ways, yeah ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally see whats good for you
