When the Democrats lose the House and possibly the Senate, and conservatives say now "Obama and the Democrats can sit in the back.", that will be OK, and will not be considered racist, right? Everyone agreed?
It's really sad that people today constantly demonstrate they don't know anything about civil rights history.

How is that a rebuttal of the argument?

The whole point is if someone finds the "sit in the back" phrase objectionable, then don't use it! Then people won't be motivated to return the insult. But the hypocrisy of "I can say the phrase to you but you can't say it to me" is absurd.

As for civil rights history, many Americans are well-versed in it. Here's a part that isn't publicized as much:

Which party seated black congressmen and senators first? Not the Democrats. What party was Lincoln from?

Which party has Black, Latino, and Female candidates? Which party calls the other party's female candidates whores and bitches? Unfortunately the Senate races this time around are in Democratic stronghold States. 8 seats in the Senate would be a huge pick-up. In 2 years the Repubs could pick up a lot more seats. The Repub candidates Riot considers moderate are liberals who would vote with the Dems anyway. That is the whole point of knocking them off in the primaries. That message goes out to the Repubs. The Dems will get their message next Tuesday (hopefully). And yes Obama is a racist. Calling on Latinos to "punish their enemies" is only the latest clue. Not prosecuting the New Black Panthers for voter intimidation was another.
