Division: Obama launches African Americans for Obama

President Obama has once again separated America by launching African Americans for Obama. Of course, the hypocrisy here is thick, as white candidates would be defined as racist for launching a similar campaign.

Obama has positioned himself as a different type of American leader. The people who voted for Obama in 2008 were totally infatuated with a post-racial America with a post-racial guy in the Executive Office. How is this post-racial?

    Can you imagine the reaction if any candidate said, “Vote for me to keep a white guy in office”?? Oh wait, didn’t Democrats say that in the Jim Crow South??

    Will African Americans ever get sick of the hypocrisy of the Left’s ‘race card’?

    I didn’t think so, as witnessed by all of the outrage on the Editorial pages this morning.?

    Is it racist?? Apply the test: can you create a Caucasian Americans for Newt program with similar levels of disinterest from the press?? If you can, it isn’t racist.? If you can’t, it is clearly racist.

    Talk about a racist approach to politics. Just shows how desperate obama is….he is an embarassment to the Presidency. And if any white Republican candidate even remotely tries to challenge this he will be crucified. This STINKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    What else would you expect the Affirmative Action President to say?

    Now hold it line three of the dumbocratic play book states you have to be white to be racist. If you don’t believe me just ask the new black panthers.

    Race and class-baiting is going to boomerang on the Obama Administration. You can’t alienate virtually everyone without at least a few of the less cretinous finally getting it.

    I’ll second that. Creating a blatantly racist campaign organization to get him reelected is just wrong. What happened to equality, organized one-for-all, all-for-one, community, yada, yada? These Democrats will do and say anything to stay in power!
    I hope this divisionist “support me ’cause I’m Black”, nakedly racist web-site will boomerang on him and the DNC.
    He has done less for Black Americans than any president; he has hurt Blacks with unemployment, food stamps, welfare, entrenched poverty and overt segregation more than any of the White presidents prior to him.

      You are so right, I mean correct. The problem is that the Libs permeate so many references. They have actually changed the definition of racism. Look for yourself on the web.

    Play by the same rules???? when has this clown ever played by any rules.? I just can’t even watch him open his mouth anymore.? If he had to live by the rules he has put on small business in this country he would sing a different tune.

    The only real racists left are black,but little black Bambo(I’m waiting for the reaction) already has them. The Black Caucus,Black Guardians etc. are all a bunch of racists pigs,by their own definition.

    President Obama shows a shocking lack of knowledge concerning American History, in my view. I have heard first hand accounts of how immigrants of Irish, Italian, Chinese and many other races were discriminated against.? They could not get jobs, be educated in schools etc. Did we have any affirmative action for these ethnic groups? I couldn’t find any reference to of these groups. However, President Obama keeps talking about fair, everyone be treated the same.? Why is it some people achieve without govt help and some can’t? Even scarier note definition of racist by Wickepedia, as long as you don’t say your race is the best you are not being racist, nothing about race being the reason for special treatment if you are assuming that Afro Americans have all been treated badly. Therefore, Condaleeza Rice, Colin Powell, Herman Cain were what, not really black/Afro-American? Sorry for some reason I could not paste Wickepedia’s link. But Yahoo it. it’s a stunner.

    Ever notice, everybody wants to be Irish on St. Patrick’s Day, but nobody wants to be black on MLK Day.

    Division or diversion?

    Obama picked the fight with the Catholic church and has effectively change some of the narrative of the?R primary.??Then there’s class warfare and the?Buffett Rule. ?Don’t think that?race isn’t on the table as another red herring.? Anything, anything at all to pull the headlines away from 15% unemployment, $5 gasoline (and $4 heating oil) and the rest of his sorted, failed economic agenda (see Green Energy) is on tap from the complicit MSM.

    today i’m proud and happy to announce the formation of NATIVE AMERICANS FOR RIGHTEOUS AND RIGHTFUL RECLAMATION AND REPATRIATION.? this is your notice–get out.?? and leave your stuff. ? thanks very much and good luck to you.



    • Moe on February 28, 2012 at 12:57 pm

      The history of the European’s treatment (and their descendants) of the Native Americans is a black eye in?American ?history. “Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee”, by Dee Brown, ?should be must reading in all our schools.?Then you’ll know why Custer died for our sins.
