For example, it was "racist" for McCain to not address the NAACP convention in 2008.

Likewise, it was "racist" for Romney to mention points of disagreement in his NAACP convention speech earlier this week, as proved by their boos. (Any time a white person is bood by a mostly black audience, the speaker is racist. And no, their applause doesn't erase that.)

That said, it would have been "racist" for Romney to only mention points of agreement.

Speaking of boos, if a mostly white audience boos a black speaker, that's because they're "racists".
