Here I was thinking that the tea party only hates Obama because he's black.
UncleRuckuMay 29, 2011
We're not just voting for him 'cause he's black, we're voting for him 'cause he's black and qualified. That's why we're voting for the motherfunker. Yeah. That's why we behind him. It's not like we're voting for Flavor Flav. "Yeeeeah, boooooy! Flavor Flaaaav!" Hey, I love Flavor. Lovin' him for 20 years. I love the "Flavor of Love" show; I think it's quite entertainin'. But Flavor Flav must be killed. In order for black people to truly reach the promised land, Flavor Flav has to be shot. These are important times! We got a black man runnin' for President! We don't need a nagger runnin' around with a funkin' clock around his neck and a Viking hat on his head! "Not this year, Flav, put a suit on! Nagger, put a suit on!" chris rockComment is buried, click here to see the rest.

The desire to see the first black president caused many to support and vote for him (e.g. Matthew's commenting about thrill going up his leg) . This is plain racism.
Hopefully 2012 elections will be more on the merit and character than on skin color.

Yeah. It is the same reason Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton were elected so many times. ಠ_ಠ

And not because McCain and Palin were shown to be dangerously ignorant in the debates?
cryinlionMay 29, 2011
I remember thinking while watching the debates that Obama wasn't nearly as good as I thought he was going to be. It seemed like he was a really sharp guy who just wasn't that experienced debating, at least in political situations. McCain seemed like he handled the debates better, even though his arguments weren't as good, because he just seemed more comfortable and aware that the campaign doesn't turn on the debates.
Palin/Biden was a freaking circus, though. I watched that and thought, good God, whoever's elected President I'm rooting for him to stay alive for four years.

johnnysoftwareMay 29, 2011
That is only half a step from declaring that he is only SUCCESSFUL president because he is black, and lets face it: his brain is why he is able to succeed, not skin.
He is smart and oriented on picking up the things that got dropped just prior to him getting into office.
The number of separate systemic failures that occurred just prior to Obama getting elected to office and receiving the US to operate as-is were unprecedented.
You turn out the lights, Obama is still Obama, the problems are still big problems but racist, skin-tone fixated statements do not even work as rhetoric anymore.
We hire smart people for the job of President because how smart, dedicated, and well-oriented is matters. Were we to hire a really dumb guy, then people could take advantage of one individual's dumbness and harm everybody's well-being.
HIs mom was an extremely intelligent, hard-working, single-mom who somehow made it all work. His brother is also very intelligent.
The color of the President's pen means nothing. The color of the hand holding it means no more than it does.

I agree with you.
There seems to be some double-standard, however. Harry Reid said something similar, I believe.
Does Obama's race matter, or factor in at all? I'm not sure. I can't say that the man won due to "white guilt." I *do* feel that many Americans wanted to do something truly historic and roll-back some of the racism of its past.
I think many of us, who weren't Obama voters, still felt on election eve and during the inauguration that the moment was moving and emotional.
It's hard to know who is or isn't able to mention that Obama is African-American and what factor that might have been in his candidacy.Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.

It's a shame because if coherent comments get the same response as irrational ones there's no incentive to be rational.

friday1970May 30, 2011
I think you're truly the genius in that you seem to deflect comments about him by comparing him to something else.
Kind of a wrong plus a wrong makes a right? Correct?
Listen, he promised fiscal responsibility and then run up the debt another 5 trillion. He promised an ending to wasteful spending, then knowingly signed a bill with over 9000 earmarks. He promised unemploment would not grow more than 8% with his stimulus package, and when it failed, wants another shot with another stimulus package.
The guy lied, but you guys eat it up.
Why?Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.
decayoMay 30, 2011
You are too kind. Genius is a bit of an exaggeration, but I'll take it.
My comment is simply meant to point out that it is completely illogical to blame the entirety of the national debt and unemployment situation on one president when a huge chunk of those things can be demonstrably pinned on his opposition. Am I wrong about that? You are telling me that if a Republican somehow took over the presidency tomorrow I would be completely justified in saying "holy s**t! this Republican has us at 9.8% unemployment!!" a month later? That would be retarded. Because a president can't simply wave a magic wand and dictate unemployment numbers, you have to look at the number in relation to when their influence began. I don't understand how this is so hard to grasp.
Did he promise to never sign anything that increased debt or that contains earmarks? Did he say "I promise that unemployment will not go higher than 8%"? No on both accounts. You frame it in a dishonest way so you can claim he lied. Your first two examples are you holding him to a ridiculous standard that would have him at constant odds with the legislature and your 3rd example was simply a case of bad forecasting.
I don't eat anything up, I simply compare him against his opposition for which we have 8 years of facts, figures, and proof of what their policies will do. By the way, the national debt is no the end-all-be-all of government performance.

Well, let's be frank Sister.
"Let me guess Friday and the rest of ya's. You really don't get it and it really confounds you that people don't see what you see and you are trying to convince us that we are wrong."
We see things that the Democrats did as wrong. We see some decisions Obama has made as wrong. We kind of thumped y'all upside the head in 2010 ... but what are Democrats doing about it? Nothing. No budget. Just finger pointing at the adults trying to deal with this economy that's dying. I don't want to see Europe-style riots in the streets.
"We voted for the man, he won how in the hell do you think you are going to make us reverse ourselves?"
You all allergic to debate?
"We are happy with our decision, you cast your vote just like we did. You misread his first win and you will not understand the 2012 win because you keep substituting your real problem with the man and want us to believe your lie (substitution) about him."
No, sister... we're talking about his policies. We're talking about his runaway spending. It's not just about Mr. Charisma ... it's about the Democrats in general.
"WE LIKE OBAMA. We are not upset about jack shyt."
No shyt. Some of us wish some of you Obamabots would open up your eyes. You think he's perfect. That shyt's just super!
"The problem is not with him its YOUR problem with him and if you don't make an adjustment 2012 is gonna hurt you real bad."
Right. The problem is with him and his do-nothing party.
"Maybe its the shyt you are eating, maybe its the shyt you drinking. "
I don't eat shyt ... but if this country goes belly up, you may have to dine on shyt.
"You can't see how you are messing with your own view? We can see through your argument and ain't buying it."
I ain't caring about the Obamabots. You see NOTHING wrong with the way things are going? What are YOU drinking?
'I am not rethinking a damn thing you are talking about maybe it is YOU who needs to rethink Obama and be truthful about what your real issues are with him."
There are many issues with Obama. If you don't recognize that the nation is in danger and Democrats are doing JACK SHYT about it, then I can't help you.

"Did he promise to never sign anything that increased debt or contains earmarks?"
Oh yes, he did.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kV0Grra3QHs
""I promise that unemployment will not go higher than 8%"
True, his economic team that he put together said it and was echoed by the CBO office. The exact number was around 8.3 maximum if the stimulus was passed. And, in an interview, Obama was asked about the 8 percent, and did not deny this figure.

"8 years of facts, figures, and proof of what their policies will do"
More like 30 years since the Community Reinvestment Act. One of Bush's big failures was to not fix this, in fact, he took credit for the high rates of home ownership. But, somewhere muddled in the facts is that he did try to reign in some of the policies of Freddie Mac/Fannie May, but could not get the votes to get the bill onto the floor, courtesy of Chris Dodd and Barney Frank.

Now, unemployment numbers.
Obama passed a stimulus bill. A HUGE ONE. Yet, unemployment isn't going down. It's rising yet again. It's a failure, just as it was designed to be.
If you want to really fix this, you have to create conditions that allow businesses to grow, not be punished for their success.
What it comes down to for businesses is that someone has to buy their products or services.
In truth, real world economics has a conservative bias, and liberals policies will not fix this.Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.

I don't think the poster is kidding. Much of that rise in national debt and unemployment can be attributed to the times in which we live.

As for 2012? I'm still hoping for a good alternate giving us good choices.

actually, i don't think that is true. alot of americans however do hate the fact that the current president is this incompetent loser though.
alot of americans also hate the fact that there is a double standard going on. after hurricane katrina, everyone was quick to crucify bush for not acting quick enough. a major tornado happens causing devastation under obama's watch, and no one really cares that obama is vacationing around europe drinking beers and after almost a week just tells the people to stay strong.
crymtyphonMay 31, 2011
a lot of americans also wonder how you can call
the 44th president an incompetent loser,
- without everyone understanding that you have a
deep and abiding need to stamp your foot
in frustration for the unfairness of your life.
The books; the degrees; the elections; the grammies
and the legislative victories; these only went to
obama because, uhm, err, because you aren't black!
A lot of americans will try not to laugh.
fertilebastardMay 30, 2011
Sorry Blue. More americans voted for the junior senator from Illinois than voted against him. Most that didn't were not too fond of his leftist leanings. Yep, there are a few racist morons around here, but I find them on both sides of the bridge... Don't worry, we still love you and your beer.

I AM Al-Waleed bin Talal.
It was given to us, that the Prophet spoke
in Mecca upon the 44th caliph of Al-Amerika,
- that he would be born in a hut south of
Nubia; and be raised above all others
for his skills in speaking, writing, leading
and B-ball.
Therefore we used our fortune to
put that chicago kid into harvard,
- knowing he would be President.

Now all your bases, belong to us!

As you know, there's unsolicited testimony from Harlem politician Percy Sutton. And don't bother claiming he retracted it, cause I know better.
We also have reason to believe that Obama's grade in Columbia weren't stellar enough to get him into Harvard. Nor is there any proof he borrowed the money to pay his own way.
Is that 100% proof? No. Has any other plausible explanation been proffered by Obama? Not that I've ever heard.

Of course, Rep. Walsh conveniently ignored the fact that Dubya and his conservative ilk (people JUST LIKE Walsh) mismanaged the country or that John McCain (Obama's challenger for president) promised to follow in Dubya's steps. The country would have needed a collective stroke to ignore/miss that political record of disgrace and vote for McCain.
Now, Republicans have the audacity to proclaim that they're the "leaders" this country needs? It would be funny if it wasn't so tragic.

There are many white people that were not president so being white does not seem to be a dominant factor.
crymtyphonMay 30, 2011
I could point out that plenty of black people have wanted to
be president; yet until the 44th they never got close.
But it is a waste to argue with someone who is talking,
not to their fellow americans;
- but to their mirror.
Go and tell your bathroom reflection that it your pale skin-tone
that keeps you out of the white house; that has deprived
you of the fame and fortune; the beautiful wife and house
and the chance to lead the free world.
If your reflection looks doubtful?
- then rub soap over the glass.
murxMay 30, 2011
And all presidents - with the exception of Lincoln (and maybe Taylor) were Christians.
So white and Christian is/was a prerequisite for presidency.
Now what would be if the next president wasn't just black - or at least 'coloured' (maybe European/Mexican?) AND Muslim, or Buddhist....

He was elected because he wasn't George Bush, or at least he seemed like it at the time. What we have learned is that he is no different, charging full steam ahead with almost all policies, bailing out failed institutions, getting the country into another war, renewing the patriot act... s**t, name something you didn't like about George Bush and odds are Obama is doing the exact same thing.
f**ked up thing is most of those people who voted Obama last time around are going to vote for him again, this time scapegoating the same policies they insisted were tyrannical just four years prior.

He also won because a lot of people could not vote to have Sara Palin as VP. The republican did not even try. Of course Obama also won by making a lot of promises he had no intention of keeping. Think about it a black guy named Barack Hussein Obama won. Any other time that would not have happened. He may win in 2012 because the Rep's are shooting themselves in the foot.

No reason to doubt he wrote his two autobiographies? Except that he's not written anything before or since even when he was President of the HLR, a job that's supposed to be all about writing.
Obama opposed the Illinois Born Alive Infant Protection Act because he's in favor of abortion even three minutes before the baby would have been born. And the idea that a baby should survive an abortion and then not be left alone in a closet to die was against his lib beliefs.
Of COURSE I think Obama should have despised his father. A drunk bigamist Marxist?

What? Percy Sutton's interview is recorded. No one disputes he said this, unprompted. Here's the clip from NY1. You can start at 52 sec if you like:

FYI -- Percy Sutton was attorney for Malcolm X and the Black Panthers. He was Manhattan Borough President for a while. Again, no one disputes he said this.
Also, there really is no other explanation for how Obama, with less than stellar grades at Columbia could have possibly gotten into Harvard Law School.Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.

Wow! and also Gosh! it's a real interview!
In which Percy says that Khalid said that
a saudi prince told him in the 80's:
'get that low-browed chicago kid into harvard and
on to the white house'.
And you pretend to believe this tripe?
- because the alternative is to give
honest credit, to someone you hate.
That's pathetic.
Also hilarious;
- but I don't credit you with that.

"By the time Mr. Obama began his dark-horse run for the Presidency,
he had taught classes, led community boards, written books,"
none of those have anything to do with presidential qualifications though
"given record-breaking speeches,"
yes, we know. he gave vague speeches without specifics so people couldn't disagree with him. his speech writers were great and he can read off a teleprompter. that doesn't mean anything of substance.
"been a state senator and a U.S. senator."
he hadn't even been a us senator for a full term. this would be like if someone applied at mcdonalds, got the job, and after 2 years said "hey, you know, i'm ready to be ceo of the company"
on a side note, the senate is not part of the executive branch. since you are responding to a post that says "Obama had zero executive experience. Zero.", an incomplete term as a senator might not be the best point to make.Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.

To throw back your lie inspired by a sad limp little inferiority complex you have against the 44th President?
- it is enought to say: the only test of whether someone
had the right experience, is how well they do.
This is 2011.
American Conservativism has only one single
unifying principle: opposition to Obama.
Who has no serious opposition at all.
You guys needs some experience.
