It is amazing to me the way some people think.  They cry that racism is being thrown about by some people (especially blacks), when they themselves are doing the very same thing.  They cry that the only reason why blacks do support Obama, is because he is in fact, black! 

 


Is there any truth to the fact that blacks do support Obama, yes, there is.  If he is the candidate that they want to support, why shouldn't they support him?  If he is the candidate in the political party they support, is it so wrong to be behind the candidate they believe in?

 

I guess they should switch party affiliations just because so many don't believe in anything this candidate, Obama, stands for, and what they the people who support the Republican candidate do, and are crying foul, believe in!

 

Sure, Obama being black is a trump card, he is different, never has this happened before in our country, so why not?!  This would be the reasons why so many of Obama's supporters, support him right?  To coin a phrase, we are like sheep!

 

Bring me arguments about the state of our country and what is going on in our country, and why there should be changes made so that WE ALL can live a better life and whether are not we have to worry about ALL THAT WE HAVE ALL WORKED SO HARD FOR OVER THE YEARS is all going down the toilet!    

 

Don't bring me crap shoot arguments whining about the fact that a candidate is Black, and that he loves to bring this information up himself,  and that all he seems to do is say that he is black, when this fact is quite obvious to EVERYONE!  What the freck is the really issue here?  The fact that so many can't get over the fact that he is the one chosen as the candidate to represent the Democratic party, and he happens to be black?

 

Or, the fact that the American people are tired of the ruling government and all the crap that they have done over the years that has begun to affect our country?  So they want change, and they will have it!  Are you going to be effective in your citizenship and go out there and also let yourself be heard, or are you going to stay out of it just because "Obama will get everyone's vote because HE IS BLACK and White America wants to prove that they are not racist and will also vote for him and that is the only reason why they will vote for him"? 

 

You who believe such crap are doing a disservice to yourself and to your fellow Americans!  It is bullshit crap like this that makes us all look bad and it is time to get up off of the toilet or take a shit and do or say something more constructive!  Not come at me with crappy arguments that is riddled with holes!

 

For God's sake wake up people!  Of course we all will notice that Obama is Black, just the same that we all notice that McCain is so much older and looks like a hard wind would blow him over!  Now was that not me being discriminative about McSame...I mean, McCain's age?! [and wans't that me being rude and disrespectful in calling him McSame?!]  We all can do it, we just chose to take the higher road and be respectful!

 

I am worried about the economy, the fact that gas prices are so high, that the boomerang effects from that has cost jobs, higher prices in the supermarkets, housing slumps all over!  People are out there hanging on to their life and livihood for dear life, and some of you only have stupid arguments to insult our intelligence! 

 

Oh GROW UP!

Nice rant, Donna.

Hey Pony man!  I was a bit ticked off, I just read my quarterly statements, my savings is going down the toilet, Ford is closing dealerships, Bennigans and another restaurant chain is closing down all over the country, more jobs lost, the oil tycoons have made even more profits, our company might start layoffs....do I need to continue?  There is so much more at issue than a black man running for president!

Obama's race is irrelevant when considering his stands and policies. But as many have pointed out, the first one to talk about his race is - Obama. If you can find where McCain has even insinuated anything about his race, you have a point. Otherwise, perhaps Obama to stop letting his handlers spoon feed his daily indignities, and be the person who got him into this position to begin with.

When he is not being handled, his honesty is refreshing.

The only one who seems to be playing race card is Hussein. Do you honestly think Hussein is any match for McCain? Hillary perhaps, but not Hussein. If he does win it will be because he was able to outspend and get more positive media coverage, but he'll never get the better of McCain in a debate.

Possibly why he consistently refuses to debate McCain?

Sure it is Doc, that is what so many of us are pointing out!

Hussein..who....?

I guess when he's ready to do that it will happen.  Until then, the musings continue!

The pervading use of "Hussein" is childish.

Obama never said McCain insinuated that. He Said "what they will try to do is make you scared of me" ... then he proceeded and counted the points that "they" are using to scare people.

Now, you want to know who are "they" .... it is very obvious ... isnt it? the GOP's McCain surrogates ..... you want a name and an example? here it is:

Last week, Krystal (the neocon who is now a columnist for the NYT) wrote his column with the title "Be Afraid, Please" then in the column he mentioned few of obama's unique qualities. I was astonished to read the one he used!!!! it was "Exotic".

Exotic????? this is the second time i heard that word used for Obama. the first was by David Gergen of CNN.

and please look at the difinition of exotic. it is "foreign", "from abroad","alien", "unusual", "out of the ordinary" ....

i never heard that word used for anything other than when they discover a new bird species or something along that line ...

If this was not using Obama's uniqueness and his race to scare people ... i dont know what is.

the other things Krystal mentioned about obama are common and were used against Edwards, Gore and Kerry ... the fact that Exotic was used only for Obama .... decodes the Code word ....

Let's be honest and call it as it is.

The fact that so many can't get over the fact that he is the one chosen as the candidate to represent the Democratic party, and he happens to be black?

That is what is bothering them. How in the world the Dems  pick a black man to represent them? The Clintons couldnt take it either ... That is what the "fairy-tale" statement was all about. How in the world can you think that a black man could win the presidency?!!!!!! ....

I pray for this man .... he is in no win position... if he doesnt respond ... we say he is not aggresive enough and they will eat him alive .... and if he responds, even politely, you see what happens .... But, I still trust the wisdom of the majority, even a slight majority, of the American people. After being wrong twice before, let's hope i am not wrong this time.

Yes, but 'McSame' is  sophisticated.
