"He's Neither-Nor."

Who are these people? What is wrong with our country when people think like this:

Being the son of a white mother and a black father has come to symbolize Mr. Obama’s larger mysteries for many voters. When asked about his background, a substantial number of people interviewed said they believed his racial heritage was unclear, giving them another reason to vote against him.

“He’s neither-nor,” said Ricky Thompson, a pipe fitter who works at a factory north of Mobile, while standing in the parking lot of a Wal-Mart store just north of here. “He’s other. It’s in the Bible. Come as one. Don’t create other breeds.”

That’s a shameful, hateful thing to say. Barack Obama and the millions of other mixed-race people in this country are people. Just like you and me. Their not another breed! Normally, we don’t hear this kind of insane blabbering in the media. But, we shouldn’t forget that people hear it every day of their lives. People — some of my friends included — can’t understand why so-called “liberals” care about being PC. Maybe if people would pay more attention to what they say and how it impacts others, absurd comments like this would diminish. One can only hope.
