Letter: Responds to racism charge

Posted on Nov 07, 2012 - 12:07 PM Printer Friendly View

Editor, Gazette-Journal:

To the Democratic Committee, I find it hard to believe that an anti-Obama sign offends you. Did it offend you when Bill Clinton had sex in the White House with Monica? Maybe two men having sex offends you? No. Maybe forcing scissors in a nine-month-old baby’s skull and calling it abortion does? No. Only the truth offends a Democrat.

Calling me a racist would be like calling someone a b____ and not even know the person and when I was feeding thousands of blacks and whites in wake of Katrina I didn’t see Miss Carter anywhere.

Burt Dyess

Gloucester, Va.
