Title: Obama plays the race card
Post by: ericire12 on June 21, 2008, 12:35:05 PM
Who is fear mongering now?


Barack Obama told supporters in Jacksonville that Republicans would launch racist attacks against him in the upcoming election. Here is the text:

Quote
“It is going to be very difficult for Republicans to run on their stewardship of the economy or their outstanding foreign policy,” Obama told a fundraiser in Jacksonville, Florida. “We know what kind of campaign they’re going to run. They’re going to try to make you afraid.

“They’re going to try to make you afraid of me. He’s young and inexperienced and he’s got a funny name. And did I mention he’s black?”


Here is CNN with the audio:

I think that it is now painfully obvious (or at least it should be to every American) that it is a very strong possibility that our next president will be a full blown racist and a bigot.

Q: What is the first thing Obama is going to do once elected to office?

A: Assume racism.

For years people like me have been called racists, sexists, homophobes and ignorant rednecks.  Now our progressive candidate  has rounded things off by proving he is both sexist and racist ... oh ... and did I bring up master of assumption?

Any time you describe someone or some group based on their sex, race, religion, or race you are showing discrimination!  He has focused on Mrs. Clinton's sex and praised her for things she has done for women, and now he his reminding us all of his race.  He then goes on to tell us what the Republican party "is going to do in the future."  I can go to the coffee shop and get this type of "reliable" information.

I've said it before, and I fear it is coming true as evidenced by this speach - Those not voting for the Democratic candidate have been set up for over a year to be either a sexist or racist.  I guess we've just been put on notice that if he does not win the election that we are all racists.

Had to get the Bible and Winchester off my lap for a moment to reply,..

Didn't the Dems spend week after week, in a tit for tat "race" issue during the primaries? I don't recall any Republican candidate ever bring up race except the dumb remark by Gov. Huckabee at the NRA convention. and he was already out of contention.

With people like Robert KKK Byrd, still in office, the hypocrisy is predictable. No one can even criticize BHO without being accused of "racism".

Politics as usual, with the citizenry suffering.

Some people have the way with words, and the personality so electric that they can get a way with the contradiction of their messages, and the enigma of their very selves. Obama has been riding high on the campaign trail mostly because of his way with his speeches. In fact, speeches are all he's been about.  However, a couple of deep, discerning thoughts can unmask him.   

Flip/Flop #1:

He is saying that he is the agent of unification, of hope, of reconciliation.  Beautiful words, and, truly, very high aspirations that we can easily identify with.  Who wouldn't want that in these United States with a stark history of racial inequality and, at present, racial distrust. Then here comes his pastor spewing all those venom that flips Obama's call for the opposite.  Granting that he did not say those words, at least in public, but his pastor, instead, the fact that he is going to this Church for twenty years and listening to this same pastor begs the question of his acceptance, if not approval of such views.  Pronouncements like his pastor's are not the kind that just slip out of nowhere; they are the kind that are deeply embedded in the psyche.  Which then follows that in all of twenty years, it is very unlikely that this same pastor has not made the same pronouncements in his sermons, where Obama and his family are in audience.

First, he refused to denounce his pastor, and tried to play with words again in his speech in Philadelphia.  Some bought that same spin, but the majority saw some sense and withheld the votes from him, thus his defeat in Pennsylvania.  Then, more of the same pronouncements from the pastor came out, and he finally denounced him.

An intelligent question should be: Did he denounce his pastor because, as the popular media keep on hammering, he is hurting Obama's campaign, and nothing else?  Is it authenticity, or expediency?  This is a contradiction or flip/flop that should give us the reason to keep a hold of our emotion, and use our head, instead.

There are so much to know about him, for he just shoots out of nowhere. The fact that he is so close to being an enigma, is one thing that may give us all pause to collect all the facts about him, and where he really stands.  Right now I consider him an "Empty Suit."

Flip/Flop #2:

$84 million, or what the government has available to hand out to both the Republican and Democratic nominees for president, is more money than most people will ever see in their lifetimes, making some wonder why it's not enough for Barack Obama to run his campaign. In announcing last week that he will fund his general election campaign with private donations, Obama suggested that the fat check he's declining (and that John McCain plans to accept) couldn't float him adequately to Election Day.  In the primaries, Obama was the biggest spender overall, blowing through $244 million through May of this year.  More than $100 million, or at least 41 percent, has gone toward media.

Had Obama accepted public funding, his campaign would be limited to spending about $1.2 million per day from the end of the Democratic convention until Election Day.  And that would have to cover everything--his staff's salaries, travel around the country, office space in each state and, most significantly, advertising.

Granted, both Obama and McCain will receive free media coverage throughout their race for the White House, as their campaign events are often televised and their surrogates make daily appearances on cable newstand talk radio, a luxury not often bestowed upon Fortune 500 companies.

$84 million to promote a presidential candidate may seem like a lot of money, but if choosing the next president is as important as buying the right cell phone plan or picking a suitable bottle of wine off the shelf, it just might not be enough.  Fact is this agent of unification, of hope, of reconciliation will try anything to buy the presidency and in doing so plans to rape the pocketbooks of the young, new first-voters.  It didn't work for McGovern and I don't think it will work for him.

Dick Morris at DickMorris.com states, "Have you noticed a change in Barack Obama’s campaign? Instead of avoiding controversies over values, religion and race, he seems to welcome them and wade into the debates with an increasing enthusiasm.

Characterizing how the Republicans will attack him, he predicted that they would criticize his 'funny name' and add 'and by the way, did you notice that he’s black?'

Obama used to go out of his way to avoid this kind of reference, but now he brings it on. Deliberately.  Why?

Obama and the conservative right are mutually trying to keep the debate about his candidacy on the existential level — is he the hope for America’s future or a Manchurian Candidate, a kind of sleeper agent sent to destroy our democracy? That debate, which pits Obama’s rhetoric against the Rev. Wright’s rantings, is a contest that could go on all day, and Obama would win it. It is simply a bridge too far to believe that Obama is that evil and that invidious.

But the more the debate covers such fundamental questions, the more it ignores the details — details which could bring Obama down.

Quite simply, Obama would rather address his religious views and his optimism about America and his embrace of diversity than talk about his plans to raise taxes, let gasoline prices soar and socialize healthcare.

In our new book, Fleeced, we try to bring the debate back down to earth, focusing on the specific plans that Obama has announced during his presidential primary campaign and discussing the consequences. This is the debate Barack Obama hopes he can avoid.

Consider his proposals:

• In effect, he would legislate a 60 percent tax bracket for upper-income Americans, killing all initiative and innovation. He’d raise the top bracket to 40 percent. He’d apply FICA taxes to all income, not just that under $100,000 as at present. So add 40 percent plus FICA’s 12.5 percent plus Medicare’s 2 percent plus state and local taxes averaging, after deduction, at 5-6 percent, and you have a 60 percent bracket.

• He would double the capital gains tax, saddling the 50 percent of Americans who own stock with dramatically higher taxes.

• He’d double the dividend tax, hitting elderly coupon-clippers now retired and depending on fixed incomes.

• He wants to cover 12 million illegal immigrants with federally subsidized health insurance, dramatically driving up costs and forcing federal rationing of healthcare. As in the U.K. and Canada, you will not be permitted certain medical procedures if the bureaucrats decide you are not worth it.

• He proposes requiring Homeland Security operatives to notify terror suspects that they are under investigation within seven days of starting the investigation

• He says that unless they can establish that there is “probable cause to believe that a certain individual is linked to a specific terrorist group,” Homeland Security cannot seize his documents and search his business. The current standard is only that the search be “relevant” to a terror investigation.

He does not oppose $5-per-gallon gasoline but only says that he wishes there had been a more 'gradual adjustment' to the higher prices.

Obama can talk about the Rev. Wright and flag lapel pins and his wife’s love of America all day long. But what he resists is a specific discussion of his own plans for our country. That’s the discussion he fears and he avoids. And it’s the discussion John McCain must force upon him if he is to have any realistic chance of winning the election."
 

The frenzy they have about Obama is scary.  Germany had the same frenzy about Hitler in the 1930s.  There were contradictory signs about him, but the Germans ignored them, for Hitler played on the very basic nerve that appealed to the Germans at that time: restoration of German pride after its defeat in WW I.

Obama has contradictions written all over him and is also playing with our deepest need: the restoration of American pride at the time of our morale and economic hardships, both at home and in the world stage.

Candidates like him play more with generalities, like McGovern and Carter, with so much to be desired for in terms of specifics.  The popular media has lavished him with so much accommodation that it makes me sick to turn the TV on, but it is us, not the media, who will live with our choices in November 2008.

May we use more of our head, and less of our emotions.  As Bernard M. Baruch, that American thinker, writer and diplomat, said: "There is madness in crowds from which even the wisest, caught up, in their ranks, are not immune."

Seriously, he is scary, and the unquestioning adoration of the media is galling. Remember the Rolling Stone cover (I don't read it but the cover is hard to miss) with him looking almost beatific?

WC had a lot of great quotes.  I think the quote "sucker born every minute" went back to a dude named David Hannum who was competing with PT Barnum over the finding of some fake "giant bones".   Ah crap ... do I sound like "Cliff" from "Cheers" now?!?



Barack Hussein Obama needs to play the race card.  He needs to find some “typical white people” that feel guilty about putting the black man in chains AND that will send him money AND will vote for him.  Above all (and according to his book), he wants you (if you are a "typical white person") to feel guilty about looking down at his mother for being in an interracial marriage with a black man  … that was a Muslim.  

Like twyacht stated, his opponents are not bringing this up … he is.  Another key point is that needs to be mentioned on the “race card” is that B-HO belonged to a church that preached "Black Liberation Theology".  Understand that this is a form of RACIST MARXISM that tries to disguise itself as Christianity.  Started in South America and is pretty far off the message of Jesus Christ.  Point is, he wants to play the “race card” but was a member of a RACIST CHURCH for twenty years?!?  

Yes … a sincere “WTF?” moment.  Great example of the pot calling the kettle black in a very literal sense.

Unfortunately he has found "typical white people" to send him money and support him.  I was behind a pair of cars today covered with Clinton/Gore and Obama stickers being driven by younger (20s) females that probably wouldn't know the issues if you gave them list (of course it would have to be a text message since a book or letter would be lost on them)  They just hear "change" and "I support the young people and want to give them more money."

HIS FATHER WAS A BLACK AFRICAN MUSLIM FROM KENYA.

WE HAVE SEEN PICTURES OF HIS AFRICAN FAMILY.

HIS MOTHER WAS A WHITE AMERICAN ATHEIST FROM KANSAS.

WHERE ARE THE PICTURES OF HIS AMERICAN FAMILY?

HIS FATHER DESERTED HIS MOTHER WHEN HE WAS ONLY TWO YEARS OLD AND WENT BACK TO AFRICA, BY WAY OF HARVARD UNIVERSITY. HOW? WAS HIS FATHER WEALTHY?

HIS MOTHER MARRIED AN INDONESIAN MUSLIM AND THEN MOVED TO JAKARTA WHERE HE WAS ENROLLED IN A MUSLIM SCHOOL.

WHEN HE REACHED HIGH SCHOOL AGE HIS MOTHER SENT HIM TO HAWAII TO BE WITH HIS WHITE GRANDPARENTS AND HE WAS PUT INTO AN EXPENSIVE PRIVATE SCHOOL. HE LATER WENT TO HARVARD UNIVERSITY. HOW? WERE HIS GRANDPARENTS RICH?

HE LIVES IN A $1.4 MILLION HOUSE OBTAINED THROUGH A DEAL WITH A WEALTHY FUNDRAISER, RECENTLY CONFICTED FOR FRAUD. HOW?

HIS WIFE HAS NEVER BEEN PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN YET HER ENTIRE IVY-LEAGUE COLLEGE EXPENSES WERE PAID FOR BY AMERICANS!

HE 'WORKED' AS A CIVIL RIGHTS ACTIVIST IN CHICAGO. HE HAS NEVER HELD A PRODUCTIVE JOB OR RECEIVED A PAY CHECK THAT WAS NOT GOVERNMENT-FUNDED AND/OR TAYPAYER SUPPORTED.

THE PRESIDENCY IS NOT A CIVIL RIGHTS POSITION, NOR IS IT SUBJECT TO AFFIRMATIVE ACTION SET ASIDES; ON-THE-JOB TRAINING WON'T CUT IT.

HE ENTERED POLITICS AT THE STATE LEVEL AND THEN THE NATIONAL LEVEL WHERE HE HAS MINIMAL EXPERIENCE.

HE IS PROUD OF HIS 'AFRICAN HERITAGE' (A FATHER WHO GOT A WHITE GIRL PREGNANT AND DESERTED HER).

WHERE IS THE PRIDE IN HIS 'WHITE HERITAGE'? (A MOTHER WHO FLAUNTED CONVENTION AND DID NOT BELIEVE IN GOD).

SOME MIGHT THINK THERE WAS NOT MUCH TO BE PROUD OF EITHER WAY.

HE HAD BELONGED, FOR OVER 20 YEARS, TO AN 'AFRO-CENTRIC' CHURCH IN CHICAGO THAT HATES WHITES, HATES JEWS, AND BLAMES AMERICA FOR AL L THE WORLD'S PERCEIVED FAULTS. (INCLUDING CREATING THE AIDS VIRUS IN ORDER TO INFLICT IT ON AFRICANS).

HE REPEATEDLY WHITEWASHED THE PASTOR, HIS EX-CHURCH AND THE MEMBERS WHO CHEERED AFTER HEARING VITRIOLIC TIRADES AGAINST AMERICA & HAS SUPPORTED THIS CHURCH WITH OVER $20,000.

HE COULD NOT CONFRONT HIS PASTOR BUT HE WANTS US TO BELIEVE HE CAN CONFRONT NORTH KOREA AND IRAN?

YEAH RIGHT!!

DURING HIS VERY BRIEF TIME IN THE UNITED STATES SENATE HE HAS MANAGED TO AMASS THE NUMBER ONE ULTRA LIBERAL VOTING RECORD OUT OF THE ONE HUNDRED MEMBERS.

HE HAS VOTED CONSISTENTLY FOR BIGGER GOVERNMENT AND HIGHER TAXES. HE HAS VOTED FOR BIG ENTITLEMENTS AND LEGISLATION THAT WOULD SEVERELY CURTAIL AMERICA 'S ABILITY TO FIGHT TERRORISM AND TO PROTECT OUR BORDERS AND
OUR NATIONAL INTERESTS AROUND THE WORLD. HE IS A MARXIST.

WE HAVE BEEN WARNED NOT TO TALK ABOUT HIS WIFE, WE CANNOT TALK ABOUT HIS EX-PASTOR, WE CANNOT MENTION HIS EARS, WE CANNOT TALK ABOU T HIS VOTING RECORD, WE  CANNOT TALK ABOUT HIS MOTHER, WE CANNOT TALK ABOUT HIS TIES TO A
TERRORIST, WE CANNOT QUESTION HIS TIES TO FARAKAHN.

BUT, HE IS A GOOD ORATOR. ISN'T THAT A COMFORT?

YEAH, I THINK I SEE HOW WELL HE COULD UNITE THE COUNTRY.

I THINK THE TRUTH IS THAT HE HOPES NO ONE WILL PUT THE PIECES TOGETHER.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, LET ME INTRODUCE YOU TO OUR NEW CHIEF PILOT.HE HAS NEVER FLOWN AN AIRPLANE, IN FACT HE HAS NEVER EVEN SAT IN THE COCKPIT, BUT HE SAYS HE HAS RIDDEN ON PLANES BEFORE. WE ARE SURE HE WILL GUIDE US SAFELY THROUGH THE STORMS WE MAY ENCOUNTER ON THIS FLIGHT.

PEOPLE WHAT ARE YOU THINKING? HAVE YOU NEVER HEARD THE STORY ABOUT THE WOLF HIDING IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING; SO HE CAN DESTROY THEM FROM WITH-IN?  THE HAND WRITING IS ON THE WALL, DO YOU NOT HAVE EYES TO SEE IT?

Here, I changed it to sentence case for you





His father was a black african muslim from kenya.

We have seen pictures of his african family.

His mother was a white american atheist from kansas.

Where are the pictures of his american family?

His father deserted his mother when he was only two years old and went back to africa, by way of harvard university. How? Was his father wealthy?

His mother married an indonesian muslim and then moved to jakarta where he was enrolled in a muslim school.

When he reached high school age his mother sent him to hawaii to be with his white grandparents and he was put into an expensive private school. He later went to harvard university. How? Were his grandparents rich?

He lives in a $1.4 million house obtained through a deal with a wealthy fundraiser, recently conficted for fraud. How?

His wife has never been proud to be an american yet her entire ivy-league college expenses were paid for by americans!

He 'worked' as a civil rights activist in chicago. He has never held a productive job or received a pay check that was not government-funded and/or taypayer supported.

The presidency is not a civil rights position, nor is it subject to affirmative action set asides; on-the-job training won't cut it.

He entered politics at the state level and then the national level where he has minimal experience.

He is proud of his 'african heritage' (a father who got a white girl pregnant and deserted her).

Where is the pride in his 'white heritage'? (a mother who flaunted convention and did not believe in god).

Some might think there was not much to be proud of either way.

He had belonged, for over 20 years, to an 'afro-centric' church in chicago that hates whites, hates jews, and blames america for al l the world's perceived faults. (including creating the aids virus in order to inflict it on africans).

He repeatedly whitewashed the pastor, his ex-church and the members who cheered after hearing vitriolic tirades against america & has supported this church with over $20,000.

He could not confront his pastor but he wants us to believe he can confront north korea and iran?

Yeah right!!

During his very brief time in the united states senate he has managed to amass the number one ultra liberal voting record out of the one hundred members.

He has voted consistently for bigger government and higher taxes. He has voted for big entitlements and legislation that would severely curtail america 's ability to fight terrorism and to protect our borders and
our national interests around the world. He is a marxist.

We have been warned not to talk about his wife, we cannot talk about his ex-pastor, we cannot mention his ears, we cannot talk abou t his voting record, we  cannot talk about his mother, we cannot talk about his ties to a
terrorist, we cannot question his ties to farakahn.

But, he is a good orator. Isn't that a comfort?

Yeah, i think i see how well he could unite the country.

I think the truth is that he hopes no one will put the pieces together.

Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to our new chief pilot.he has never flown an airplane, in fact he has never even sat in the cockpit, but he says he has ridden on planes before. We are sure he will guide us safely through the storms we may encounter on this flight.

People what are you thinking? Have you never heard the story about the wolf hiding in sheep's clothing; so he can destroy them from with-in?  The hand writing is on the wall, do you not have eyes to see it?
Think long and hard before you vote for this guy; obama!

 I must say this even though I hope it never happens. Some idiot will shoot him and we will have to here what a hero he was for the next 50 years.

No kiddin'.  We've already got one "presidential god" (with a family of "divine inspiration") that refuses to be buried.  That could only be worse...hopefully it won't happen and everyone will get to know what a mistake he really is....I still run across people who are only now admitting they wrongfully voted for Jimmy Carter.  Even though he's looking better and better across the table from what our offering now is......

I don't recall the Republicans ever making sex or race and issue.. The MEDIA did and OBTW BHO...Democrates are the party of fear!

Democrats have ALWAYS been the party of fear.  Fear of crime......ban guns, fear of somebody else haveing more money than you do......redistribute the wealth.  I could go on and on.  Yet people VOTE for these charlatans.  Just makes me shake my head!!

You can trace this tendency all the way back to the revolution. This faction has ALWAYS been against national defense, among other things. They have been on the same economic platform that doesn't work for over 225 years.
The reason they bend over backwards for Minorities and illegal immigrants now is because they want people to forget that they were PRO slavery and pro segregation until about 1970
