When 98% of a people will vote for a person of the same race just because of that person's race,to me that seems a little racist no matter what color they are.

Hmm and exactly where did you get these stats?

Blacks did not vote for his as a Senator because of his race.
What is the motivation for this as president?

Do you really think that educated African Americans are voting for Obama because he is Mulatto?

If you do you... have greatly underestimated the intelligence level of this group of people.

This underestimation seems to be ubiquitous amonst your people.

Why is that?

But back to my original question.... with so much angst being directed at the so call racist remarks of the "so called" voices of the African American community.... tell me where their anger at traditional racism stops...(i.e. the new yorker article and pictoral depiction of African Americans as enemies to this country,) and racism begins.

I can't see the racism nor the humor.

I see the same mentality that lead to four little dead girls in a church in alabama.

And I am pissed.

McAmnesty going to Iraq 8 times has NOTHING to do with your stupid comment "And look where the heck that has got us".....It's just shows your DailyKos kool aid drinking mentality.
Then man that has been there 8 times did not say that he "wants us there for 100 years" and your dumb azz knows this.....typical liberal BS!
Him going to Iraq 8 times makes him MORE knowledgable about the situation and what is going on there.....funny how Obama is NOW changing his "get them out of Iraq NOW" stance...... Funny
Actually the Iraqis (Sunni and Kurds) love us and want us there.......I've spoken with hundreds of Iraqis while serving and with my business now. I go there at least 10 times a year....how many times have you been to Iraq???????? Like Obama your messiah.....you speak about sh!t of which you have NO KNOWLEDGE OF.
I'm just sayin.

The pot calling kettle black is racist. How dare you!? That is almost a hate crime. If Obama is elected you could end up doing time for that.

He was born in muslim country and went to radical muslim school. He does't salute the flag and refuses to where the flag pendant on his lapel. If I saw a white Bob Smith walking down the street I would presume him to be a christian before I would think he is a muslim. Stereotypes do have some validity.

Great "facts"...now add the fact that he went to a Christian church for over 20 years, got married at a christian church, had his kids baptised at a christian church...and what do we have...A CHRISTIAN!!

A voice of sanity. It was insulting (the cover). Who would want to be insulted then read the contents of the magazine. The magazine thought it was being 'satirical,' yeah, right.

It was being meanspirited, opinionated and just plain dumb.

Wrong!!! Have you heard any of his speeches?!?!?!

I have and they are all full of shit. Prove otherwise. You route for Obama but seem to know nothing about him. Are you one of those people that votes for Obama because he looks like you. I bet you are not even registered to vote.

The Obama strategy to get full benefit from the guilt ridden white liberal who have become the most useful idiots that Liberalism has ever had goes something like this:
If you are a Black person and you are voting for Obama you are considered racially neutral and only seeking reparations through the legal process of political change.
If you are a White person and voting for Obama you are considered ‘enlightened’ and ‘progressive’ in your thinking and a person who is of superior intelligence and demeanor.
If you are a White person and NOT voting for Obama you are obviously a ‘racist’ and a ‘bigot’ and a person of only minimal education and intelligence and should be socially ignored and eventually sent back to Europe as undesirable for the U.S.A.
The only hope Obama has to become President is to keep his wife’s mouth shut, continue his sucking up to the guilt ridden white liberals, and spending big on propaganda from his huge Muslim media war chest.
November is the critical month, but even more important will be latter when the Muslim Jihadist ‘test’ the new President to see how he will react. I know McCain will retaliate in kind, but Obama ?(..I will stand with the Muslims..), scary.

Hey get away from that church gas line:(

McCain has been to Iraq 8 times - as stated above?
And look where the heck that has got us. Into a wrong war, thousands and thousands being killed and maimed, billions and billions of dollars and the man-who-has-been-there-eight-t imes wants to stay there for 100 years.
Sheesh, even the Iraqis dont want us and want a timetable for when we will get the hell out of their country.
For someone who has been theee 8 times, he does not seem to know much.

i bet you buy carbon credits...

There is absolutely no difference dropping a very potent nuke on Mecca during the Hajj pilgrimage and totally evaporating two million Muslims along with the Kaaba Shrine and black stone as there was when we ended WWII with Japan when two a-bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Japan also attacked us on December 7th at Pearl Harbor as did the Muslims did on 9/11.
Japan wanted to destroy America as do the Islamic Jahadists.
Japan had the support of all their people as do the Muslims.
Japan could only be stopped with the most severe and decisive means possible and so it is with the Muslims.
May Mecca become a smoking hole in the desert with green sand melted into glass entombing millions of fanatic Muslims and their turd colored rock.

the difference is the Japanes did not have sleeper cells in every corner of this country.
We nuke them and we will be looking over our shoulders for the next 50 years from bathrooms to restaurants.

Leave them alone.
Take the oil and run.

English is the trade language of the world. We don't need to learn Spanish at government expense in the government schools. Spain is bankrupt, and Mexico is nearly so. This is America. Speak English, like all ethnic groups who have come to America have learned to do.

Agreed, Rick. The last time I checked, The Declaration of Independence, The Bill of Rights and The Constitution were all written in ENGLISH!.
My grandparents & grandparents were proud the language of their adopted country, English.
You would think that these people are leaving their homeland, they would want to learn the language of their new homeland.

Obama has promised to double spending on everything and to slap on a bunch of fat new government programs and agencies.

He may be a Christian; in fact, I believe that to be so; however, he has DENOUNCED his church when it became politically dangerous to maintain that relationship. He couldn't afford to admit Rev. Wright's rantings influenced him.

I cannot believe that the media has not exposed the Obama and Odinga connections!!!

I really believe the media is playing it soft right now because he has not been officially nominated by the Democrats. I'm sure the Republicans figure Obama will be easier to beat than Hillary, but after he is nominated the news media and Republicans will step up with truths that Obama and the other Democrats do not want spread all over the world. I'm especially waiting for Karl Rove to get in his nickles worth. Don't get me wrong, I think Rove is the lowest form of life on this planet, but when that scoundrel gets through with Obama he will have no secrets. And don't ever think Rove is above throwing in a few lies. I know the fellow and believe me he not somebody I want for my neighbor.

Barack Hussein Obama is upset cause he is being called out on his crap he's feeding Americans...!
If Muslims are insulted, GET OVER IT! and LEAVE!!!

[joe]

From an AA: Obama STFU! You kiss so many arses you can't tell which is which. I bet the monkey was more offended when they portrayed you as him. You are becoming embarassing patronizing La raza and the Muslims. Whose next...the Skinheads?

Well i guess it is better to be pissed off than to be pissed on, and obama is still a Muslim.

I guess racial slurs to one of you american family members does not affect you at all.
That is unfortunate and the main problem with this disfunctional American family.

I guess you offend easy. I dont perceive and attack on Obama as an attack on Americans... Choosing to address just the issues of a minority, whether it be gay, black, Muslim or any other is not being the leader of a family. Dysfunction starts with "parental" examples.
We are one Nation, concentrate there on the Nation, not its individual cities or "groups".

We have a wicked stepfather already...
