He was just telling it like it is.

Just hold on folks .. you're going to see more and more of this. As Obama's popularity dips .. .and more and more people begin to doubt the wisdom of his plans for massive government expansion and retribution toward the private sector, the Obama defenders are going to run to the refuge of race. After all, they have years of practice here. Whenever someone who happens to be black encounters opposition to a policy idea ... those who disagree are charged with racism. It's childish, moronic and inevitable. Get used to it. It will become standard fare with Obama.

[timesjoke]

It already is standard RO, look at his campaign, he completely refused to answer many questions asked of him and used the race card to change the subject over and over. Any time someone expressed concern he just said they were only upset he was black and not really worried about his policies.

 

 

As his presidency continues to fail, more attention will be paid to these people he has surrounded himself with, up to now ABC, CBS, and NBC have all given Obama a free ride, even refusing to even report this guy called all Republicans azzholes or that he was a self proclaimed communist. And even a 9/11 truther.

 

 

Talk about real wacko and this is the kind of person Obama likes and feels comfortable with.

 

 

Tell me again how he knew nothing about the true reverand wright?

[RoyalOrleans]

I am well aware of all of that, TJ.

 

That message was, more or less, for the Obama herds.

But do you ever think they will ever let themselves see it RO?

Not until the next "big thing" to jump on comes, no one will admit that a decision that they have made has consequence.

[phreakwars]

Nobody has played the race card here. Van Jones just said it like it is... the Republicans are assholes.

 

As for

no one will admit that a decision that they have made has consequence.

Yeah, still in denial about Bush and the Republican led house being the one's who fukked everything up in the first place, aren't we.

 

It's so bad you even gotta pull your children from school and hide them from the black man.

 

At least the lunatic fringe only make up 2% of the total US population. I predict another landslide election win for Obama come 2012'.

The imperial federal government has been fukked up ever since FDR's New Deal.

 

Funny thing though, when Warren Harding had this type of serious recession, he cut taxes and Federal spending and lo and behold, the economy took off six months later and we had the roaring 1920's. Isn't it funny that history teachers in the government schools conveniently don't teach that bit history.

 

Ohh... and Bendy, before you unknot your panties, read my first post over in the thread about Obama's little speech to your snowflakes.

[phreakwars]

That's the funny part about it. Thanks to the lunatic fringe, the entire Republican party gets egg on their face. Sure you had tons of Republicans who also thought it was bullshiit that some of these schools refused to show the speech (some of them are my own old classmates who are Republican), but their bigotry reflects on the rest of the party as well.

 

I say keep it up, your only making Obama look good.

When the Republicans were in power leftists delighted in screaming "racist" or "racism" every time a conservative made any utterance that was anything less than praiseworthy of any non-white American. The media generally ignored these asinine "racism" claims.

 

Now that the looters are in power (and how) we find Republicans starting to call leftists racists.

 

Sure .. the left could get away with screaming racism at the drop of a hat. Why? Because the media wouldn't call them on it, that's why. A Democrat would scream "racism" and the media would remain silent. It's not going to be that way when a Republican calls a leftist a racist. The media is going to howl.

 

Due to rampant misuse the word has no meaning any more. So give it a rest.

And was he telling it like it is when he said 9/11 was an inside job and white polluters were targeting minority neighborhods?

 

lol.

You can't lean on that crutch forever Bender.

 

Obama ran with full knowledge of what things were like and he promised to fix everything but so far, he has made things worse instead of better.

 

Part of the loss jobs is from the business world that is scared to commit new job creation when they have no idea if Obama will take over their business next......by the way what part of the Presidential office gives him the right to fire people in private business? I don't think you will find that law or power anywhere but as usual, Obama is their messiah, above those little things like the Constitution.

 

Obama promised the American people change, and has instead been 100% partisan and refuses to listen to the people who elected him.

 

I have asked you many times what real change Obama has brought to Washington politics and you always dodge the question, that is proof enough that he has never intended to bring change, only to grab as much power as possible and say anything he has to say for that purpose.
