Blog agains racism week
I found this: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/jul/28/birther-movement-obama-citizenship
this morning.
I'm not American, but:
Your president influences the world
Your new president is already changing how other countries view the USA
Your new president offers a new view of the US as a potential ally rather than an international bully
When you elected your new president, countries world-wide celebrated. Kenyans saw the possibility of an America which saw them as people.
I know that the Americans on my f'list do not, will not endorse the racist, abusive tactics of the individuals and organisations who are behind this attack. I know you don't endorse the racist agenda that seeks to deny rights and dignity to p.o.c.
This action, these agitators, are deplorable.

It doesn't matter. Some disgruntled bunch of loonies over there will always find some bit of ordure to cling onto in order to try and discredit a president they dislike.
As if I needed anything more to depress me this morning.
