kids and buses go together like candy and razorblades...there is going to be trouble. i bet there's more to this story than meets the eye! how do i know, my kid gets in trouble on the bus at least once a week.

Of course, that sort of thing is goofy, as is the guy who changed his route to work because on the old route he would have to pass a house with a McCain sign in the yard.

But why do you assume that the aversion to Mr. Obama comes from racism? Couldn't it arise from the fact that based on his past conduct and statements he is perceived as a radical leftist? People around here don't like having their religious faith and gun ownership mocked, as Mr. O did.

reasonably prudent person,

What did you think of the Cheatham case? Pretty crazy, haha.

I'm like you, dawg, I did vote for McCain, but now that the election is over, I also understand that the man IS my President, and I, as a citizen, will support him as the President of the United States (POTUS sounds so cheap!). If there are issues that I disagree on, I'll agree to disagree. Race is not a factor in my way of looking at the Office.

This is embarrasing and uncalled for. I didnt support Obama for President, but I support him now because he will be my president, and I hope that he succeeds. I will give loyal oppisition, but not because the color of his skin.

However, I think you are wrong to put all Mississippians in this category. Not all Mississippians are like this, and there are others like this outside of Mississippi. Just because Mississippians vote for Conservative candidates, it does not mean we are racist and dumb.

There are rumors floating around on the web that the kids were taunting other students and being disruptive. I suspect there is a lot more to this story, but since they are minors we may never hear it. Children have speech rights, but not the right to be disruptive. I haven't read the Bong Hits for Jesus case in a while. I hope that this was the case - that the kids were acting out and disciplined accordingly, and not a situation where they were prohibited from discussing/saying Obama's name for purely racial reasons.

Absolutely ridiculous. Really embarrassing. But, if it makes you feel better - and it won't - I've compiled a compendium of similar racist incidents around the country over kingpolitics.com
