It is in the context she is giving her response, that being anyone objecting to Obama based on his being black.
Its pritty clear that there are some members here who feel insercure about Obama for racial reasons, you denying this is no surprise to me... ofcourse your going to deny it. The very fact that some folks are still going on about his middle name and his BC indicates that there is this belief the man is way too "different" to be president. It has been installed in all by the media, from years of social belief, by our very own parents, and one can only deny it so much.
Does that make all non-Obama supporters racist, no, but folks have a right to call out those who make it apparent.
I think the novelty of his being black is something some may have a time getting used to.
Judging by the wave of threads posted from rightwingers here this is pritty evident.
The claims of those saying this is, or has some racial issues to it, are NOT the issues of people who didn't vote for Obama
Yes, the great denial that theres absolutley nothing racial or partisan to anybody who is posting this crap all over this forum. Is this objectivity?
I think when you look at the Black Vote and for a great many of the Black voters, race WAS the reason they voted for him.
Yes and well that may be true, the increase of blacks who voted for a democrat this year was a mear 5-7% points, which aint a whole lot different from the past. The first black president couple with this 8year crapheap from another republican president and finally topped by the aftermath of katrina. Really, who could blame them?
Any democratic nominee would have recieved this much attention and support, Obama has just given rightwingers an excuse to label it as a race messiah thingy. I mean it really doesnt make much sense.
The question should be as to why blacks vote overwhelmingly democrat?
what's more important is how the most mysterious, secretive, un-tested, unqualified, inexperienced, extremely left, anti- white, socialist, baby killer,
This is all partisan crap from the neoconservative base, its got nothing to do with the rest of the population and their views.
-The only thing secretive about the man is how righties make him out to be,
-untested? inexperienced? like Palin? what qualifies those the right to say whos been tested? Im guessing Palin is different? How about Bush? how was he tested for the job prior to 2000?
-extremely left? The same label put on kerry in 2004 and clinton in 92', please... and Palin aint extremely right in that measure??
as I said,
just more partisan cr*p. -Anti-white? newsflash, the mans half white, and never once have I heard him say he "hates white people".
-Baby killer? Im sorry but what you believe does necessarily reflect others. Ultimately this is the choice of a woman and should be available to here, especially in the case of rape and incest. You keep yourself and your religious BS out of somebody elses decision, and while your at it dont preach thats freedom cr*p, its hypocrisy at its worst.
When that all came crashing down, Bush who DID try to stop it but failed at the hands of a house and senate with only a 9% approval rating, had to ask the same people, who created this mess, a bill to fix it.
This financial crises came about way before the congress came into power, when the house was majority republican and they and had their hands in every side of washington. This is the worse president elect in the history of this nation, and you wish to put all the blame on congress elected 2years ago? with republicans who chose not to cooperate all that time?? How about this $200million a day lie of a war? I see this been sweeped under the floor by righties here, and you wish to now put all the blame on the congress elected 2years ago?
As I said, more rightwing partisan cr*p here, nothing new.
So desperate for change were the American voters, that who so ever WILL say Change, GETS the change to replace this President and Obama was the one who made that word his mantra for the entire campaign
damn straight his change, what should we have elected another republican to the whitehouse? please.. youll just have to cope my friend.
This President Elect should NOT go down in history the same way Bush will.
damn straight he wont, he will be a great president, whether rightwingers continously deny it with their partisan rhetoric or not.
What we STILL may never know is the LOCATION the birth certificate says that birth took place. We all know Obama lies so do not be surprised when he lies about this too in addition to our forever being suspicious as to why he didn't make it as public as John McCain did his in spite of those silly excuses about the Hospital protecting his Identity. The FACT is none of that will help YOU when Obama wants to look into YOUR records, YOUR past, YOUR thesis etc,.
The mans been campaigning for two years, his had both the McCain and Clinton campaigns dig up as much dirt on the man possible to get ahead, and they came up with nothing. His more than likely had the Bush administration with the CIA FBI agency looking into this guy for the two years his been running. His birth on US soil has been confirmed numerous times including the official news outles and all the fact checker websites, along with the state department. Obama has on numerous occasions presented new proof of his BC and yet the folks on the right refuse to listen or beleive. Its just partisan cr*p from the right and yall have to get over it sooner or later buddy.
Bigger government means more bureaucracy, more government fingers in private lives, and less liberty.
yet you folks elected an idiot in to make the government the largest its ever been, and paraded the man around in 2000 and 2004 to reelection until reality hit. Hypocrisy.
Look its evident that your an angry frustrated individual with very passionate conservative held belief and confidence in the republican party, as with most on this forum who will readily agree with you.
Obama is my president and his yours indefinatly for the next 4years. How you choose to cope with it is up to you, but this constant partisan bickering and misplaced anger, along with these rumors you so readily want to believe, it aint ganna help the way your deal with it.
