Don't YELL SOCIALIST in a crowded restaurant, it's now illegal if Barack Obama happens to be there.


Evidently, if Barack Obama comes into a public restaurant for a photo op, and you yell "Socialist, Socialist", you are out of line. Not every place a candidate goes to should be an automatic photo op, unless apparently it is Barack Obama.

But when Lennox Bramble told Diane Fanning, to "be civil, be courteous" after Ms. Fanning yelled that Barack Obama was a Socialist, Mr. Bramble was basically saying "shut up" to Ms. Fanning, and at that point he crossed the line of sexism.

What is so awful about a man telling a woman to be "civil, be courteous"? It's awful because Diane Fanning was making a point, a political point, and that point was belittled by a man. Haven't we had enough sexism in this election year, especially when the man telling the women what is what, is wrong? I admire Ms. Fanning for being able to assess a situation she had no idea she was going to be in, and let her voice be heard.

Bless Diane Fanning for being brave enough to say how she felt. This may be hard for the Obamabots to comprehend, but everywhere that Barack Obama glides above is not necessarily going to be "healed" by his out stretched wingspan, even as the media falsely reports it as another Barack Obama conversion story.
