No, it was baiting.

No I didn't. I said, "I naively hoped that people would be so afraid of being labeled racist that they would choose to cooperate with the president more."

Or if they were racist. But apparently, no one can be called racist because racism suddenly ceased to exist. No one's racist anymore, and all accusations of racism are politically motivated. Unlike, of course, accusations that Barack HUSSEIN (has to be in caps!) Obama wasn't born in this country and is a secret Muslim sleeper cell who is going to have his death panels drag grandma and Sarah Palin's ever-so-special-needs baby out to a field and shoot them dead. THAT'S not an accepted political tool (though Glenn Beck is), that's just flowers and light and the love of Jesus don'cha know.
