John Murtha is shooting his stupid, ignorant mouth off again:

The 17-term Democratic congressman tells the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in a story posted Wednesday on its Web site that, as he put it: “There is no question that western Pennsylvania is a racist area.”

He says it’s taken time for many Pennsylvania voters to come around to liking Obama, but he should still win the state, though not in a runaway.

The message of this election is that anyone who doesn’t support Obama is a racist. It’s not possible to disagree with Obama’s policies, you have to hate him because he’s black.
