Nothing politically incorrect or racist in calling a spade a spade either, especially since you've already done so, though in all fairness you didn't call him a "spade", you called Presient Obama a "n*gger" or, more precisely, our "n*gger president."

If calling a spade a spade, and PC a silly pastime of prudish do-gooders, makes
me an authority, I thank you for the compliment; though I'd very much prefer
to be recognized as an authority merely in some fields of discography, and I
dearly wish more opportunities for the latter would occur in the alehouse
politics group 78-L has recently become. In my last mails I was merely adapting
to the apparent new purpose of this list after silently enduring it already too
long. If you check the archive you will noticed that *never* in the past ten
years since I first became a member here have I *started* a thread of a
political, religious, or otherwise off-topic subject matter, but if others here
are ever so keen on displaying their views on these matters I see no reason why
I shouldn't speak openly about mine.

I will NOT leave quietly this time, as I have done before in similar
situations, but will be just as outspoken about *my* opinions - call them Racist
or Nazi if you like - as others are about theirs. If what I write offends you,
you might think again whether what you wrote before might not have offended me.
Stick to the original premises of this list, and I will only too happily follow
along. No political/religious/racial comments from others = no
political/religious/racial comments from me, it's easy as that! Obama made
no 78s, so his name has no place here!!!
