Do you think Israelis/British/French/etc care about Democrats vs. Republicans inside politics? I sure don't. The Bushes and Reagans sure did a whole lot more damage to this world than the Obamas anyway.
As for the racial slur accusations... Completely out of place. The reasons for me not liking her have nothing to do with her being black. I have black friends, served and worked with black people, and in Israel we very rarely had any racial clashes based on skin colour.
I have called this 'lady' a "Behemoth". The latter is a word in Hebrew. The meaning is usually livestock (plural). In singular form (Behema), it is used to denote in slang a person whose way of carrying himself/herself is grotesque and/or clumsy (one of the most commonly used Hebrew slang words). Perhaps unbeknownst to me, the word has connotations to slavery days, which in turn made people take this as a racial comment? I am honestly not aware of that.
I am happy to live in a country in which you can express the opinion that someone of a different skin colour is not to your liking, and not be blamed for being a racist for thinking that way.

Want to hurt CMA? Have more people like JB teach CMA to beginners.
Why the personal attacks?... I have never tried to offend you, as far as I can recall. Please refrain from these.

Here again... Why go so low, taunting me as if we're 13 year olds in an alley? I have only now replied because I had forgotten about the thread altogether.
