Now he tells us.

*
"The first black president!" ...I'm proud to be able to say that. That's unless you screw up. And then it's going to be, 'What's up with the half-white guy?'"~Wanda Sykes~
I knew it! I knew that beige man in the white house was really black. He confirmed it by checking the African American/Negro/black/ category on the census. I have new found respect for the man. He understands the country he leads. Yea yea, I know his mama is white, and folks love to say that he is bi-racial when he does good. (Kind of like a certain fellow with a sweet swing and a penchant for kinky sex and Ambien.) But we all know the rules when it comes to race here in A-merry-ca, and I am thankful that "The One" understands them as well.

Of course this is going to give more fodder to his enemies on the right. The ones he has been calling out by name ,lately. "See, I told you Obama was a racist. Why did he check African American on the census and not other or multiple boxes? Because he does not claim his white side, that's why."

And so it will go. How much time do you think Radio Rwanda will give Rush to spout off on that one?

Oh well, Happy Easter to those of you who are so inclined. I see that some of my friends in South Africa have been praying and their prayers have been answered. And closer to home some prayers have been answered as well. So maybe, just maybe, someone upstairs is listening.

And yes, I am sure that many "mixed" Blacks choose the African American/Negro/Black category. I guess it may be politically easier to do.

He sure does, the affirmative-Action president knows that a hardcore leftist with zero job experience and a sketchy at best past could never get elected - if he were white.

If that is not true, then why did he choose a black identitiy, when he probably never even saw another black person until he went to college?

He knows his "blackness" is a shield against too much criticism. Just look at how anyone who opposes his policies is labelled a racist.

"Dear Anon. Wingnut, please detail all the hardcore leftist policies that have been enacted or proposed by Mr. Obama. Thank you."

Obama is a marxist, raised by marxists. Although not a patient man at all, his movement takes the long view. He will collapse the American system through unsustainable deficits. He will labor to add to the dependent clas by expanding handouts and putting more and more of the workforce on the government payroll. He has continued to appoint radicals throughout the government who will work to rot our institutions from the inside. He has alienated our allies and emboldened our enemies. For him personaly, he doesn't really care how things work out, he is merely acting out a self-aggrandizing script, fueled by an inner rage rooted in an abusive upbringing. I pity the man, but hate how he is being used to destroy this country.

And some advice for you Ernesto, maybe if you took off that ratty Che t-shirt for once, you'd get a job, and then maybe capatilism wouldn't seem so bad.

[quote]please detail all the hardcore leftist policies that have been enacted or proposed by Mr. Obama[/quote]

Anon - I have to agree with Hard Core Leftist Ernesto on this one.

Though Obama went into office head strong as a "hard core leftist" the sullen REALITY of his position soon took over and he realized that after running through the "chum bucket" of reversing Bush era policies (Intl Abortion funding, Stem Cells, Close Gitmo) he ran out of treats to throw to his hate-filled Leftist base.

He began to sober up and, despite his core sentiments got through what he could in the Congress:

* Health care WITHOUT the "Multiple Taxpayer Paid Health Care" feature

* Oil Drilling on the Atlantic Coast because people like Mellaneous and others have not REDUCED THEIR OIL CONSUMPTION enough to stick to his theories on Green Energy

* Reversing Course and NOT doing Terror Trials in NYC. It seems that the leftists in NYC have a NIMBY virus when their ABSTRACT THEORIES are put to the test

* Despite attacking Evil Bush for HIS spending - Obama has lapped Bush in his rate of spending. Evil Bush ran up the deficit by $5T - Obama's foot print is estimated to be $10T in the next 10 years. Of course like many a spouse he will say that this was "GOOD credit card spending" and thus worth it.

The Hard Core Left is angry at Obama and is tugging him leftward. Most certainly they won't do anything to DAMAGE his presidency - seeking to take him down as they sought to do Evil Bush.

Sadly they have no where else to go because they know as well as I do that DESPITE CLAIMING THAT OBAMA IS NO "PROGRESSIVE" their ideal of LEFTIST PRESIDENT can't get elected.

What should he have checked on his census form?

Anonymous said...

CF:

I think you mistake the surface for the substance:

"* Health care WITHOUT the "Multiple Taxpayer Paid Health Care" feature"

This is only a matter of time. The bill that was just passed will make private health insurance untenable in less than 10 years. At that point there will be no choice than to have the government completely take over.

"* Oil Drilling on the Atlantic Coast because people like Mellaneous and others have not REDUCED THEIR OIL CONSUMPTION enough to stick to his theories on Green Energy"

Obama campaigned on expanding drilling, and then immediately on taking office halted leases in areas Bush had recently opened up. His statement last week was pure misdirection. While he said he would "consider" allowing drilling on vast new areas off the east coast and Alaska, he specifically refused to exempt known reserves off the Virginia Coast from current restrictions. The net effect of his latest statement was actually to reduce offshore options further.


* Reversing Course and NOT doing Terror Trials in NYC. It seems that the leftists in NYC have a NIMBY virus when their ABSTRACT THEORIES are put to the test

They wisely backed off from a PR nightmare. Sometimes leftist ideas are just too stupid to actually implement.

* Despite attacking Evil Bush for HIS spending - Obama has lapped Bush in his rate of spending. Evil Bush ran up the deficit by $5T - Obama's foot print is estimated to be $10T in the next 10 years. Of course like many a spouse he will say that this was "GOOD credit card spending" and thus worth it.

How is this an affront to leftists? Leftists love spending, especially spending designed to bankrupt the country. Have you heard of the Cloward-Piven strategy?

Mixed race. Because he is.

Anonymous said...

"Mixed race. Because he is."

Well, everybody is mixed race. There are no pure races and because America has been fixated on who's Black and who's White, Obama really had no choice, unless he wanted to deny the color of his skin.

But fret not, he doesn't think Black, he thinks like a President of the USA. And you may be right- he could break a lot of hearts in the black race.

But you see, he can only hurt those who are as obsessed with skin color as most Blacks (and some Whites) are. Those who are not obsessed will be able to see Obama for who he really is.

But for right now, Obama is the best we have. Will you be voting for Palin and Romney in 2012? right now that's who the Republican ticket will probably be.

Dear Mr. Field,

Of course our Prez checked "Black" on his census form! He's a Black American. He's said that from the very beginning. I have no idea why this is news.

The honest to goodness facts are---most American Black people, whose families have been in America since slavery, are mixed. I know my folks are mixed, even though my appearance is very Nubian. The fact is, those rambunctious, randy-ass white men could not keep their hands off of our beautiful Black women ancestors. So all of us have a touch of the "whitewash".

Our Prez knows that if one's appearance has any hint of Nubian, one is considered Black American. So, the Prez checks the "Black American" box. Why is that news? I don't think there's ANYTHING WRONG with being Black, and neither does the Prez. He married a decidly Nubian woman, so that must indicate he thinks Black is cool.

So, all of you "mixed race", "bi-racial", or whatever you folks who don't want to be known as Black, and didn't want the Prez to claim Black, call yourselves; I'm sorry he didn't validate the part of you that isn't Black, but, he always said he was Black. Get over it. And, honestly---there's nothing wrong with being Black. Really. I promise.

Field,
Did you read femaretard's site? It's a bit out of date, but the last post dated July 2009 is one of those typical begging letters, due to his life's savings being wiped out due to a health crisis.

"Needless to say by the time the new insurance was validated on 1 October, we had racked up quite a medical bill… almost $30,000! This all but decimated our savings, and all we had left was about $4000 and 10 ounces of gold… since I was no longer working, and the hospital job only paid about half of what my wife had originally been making as a paralegal, that $12,000 wasn’t going to last very long."

It is almost a clichƩ at this point, but those who most vocally opposed health care reform were those who would most benefit. As a result, we got a flawed bill, which while better than nothing is not what it should have been. Thanks, asshole.

12:29 AM

Bush is a Christian, but he elected to take us to war using a doctrine that has since been discredited.

Study: War blamed for 655,000 Iraqi deaths.

This is on the high side, but I suspect that it's more accurate than those counts that look purely at gun and bomb casualties, which are significant in their own right.

Low: 94,902

High: 1,033,000

Causalities of the Iraq War.

Now I wonder how many babies are in the number of the dead, how many pregnant women, and how many children?

We're selective in our outrage. Children are children. American children are no more precious than Iraqi children.

American lives are no more valuable than Iraqi lives, or Palestinian lives, or, for that matter, Afghani lives.

Yet, we draw sides and insist that these people are our enemies, and, therefore, their lives are expendable--and we can kill innocence, as long as we're kept safe.

Our safety comes at too high a price. The Taliban didn't attack us, al-Qaeda did, but we're killing both Taliban and Afghans because they gave al-Qaeda sanctuary.

But we're told that there're fewer than a hundred al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, but we must still maintain our presence there, killing innocent civilians so that we may kill Taliban and al-Qaeda, so that we may be safe from terrorists. Afghanistan 2010: Few Al-Qa'idah Remain.

I tell you: The price is too high.

Bush is a Christan. Yet, he sanctioned torture, and spied on Americans, and did so contrary to treaties that we help construct to prevent that sort of thing. Restore the Rule of Law.

I tell you: The price is too high.

Bush is a Christian. Yet, he gave the rich a trillion dollar plus tax cut, and financed his two wars by borrowing from China, the Russians, and others around the world. MAJOR FOREIGN HOLDERS OF TREASURY SECURITIES.

I tell you: The price is too high!

OK.

You are correct about Bush's irresponsible war spending, but if you look at the numbers, it is small change compared to the long term damage being done by Obama. You repeat several falsehoods in your post:

"Bush is a Christan. Yet, he sanctioned torture, and spied on Americans, and did so contrary to treaties that we help construct to prevent that sort of thing"

FALSE. There were no violations of the Geneva convention. There was no unwarranted "spying" on Americans; phone calls from already identified terrorists to U.S. citizens were screened. If waterboarding two individuals who had information about future terrorist plots is torture, I'm all for it. Hurting someone for punitive or sadisitic motives is not morally defensible, and is torture. Coercing someone to give up informaiton that will save lives is justified.

"Bush is a Christian. Yet, he gave the rich a trillion dollar plus tax cut"

FALSE. Bush's tax cuts actually made the tax code MORE progressive and increased tax revenues.

The President marked the right box. Frankly speaking, I do not know what the big deal is because whites were the ones who started the one drop rule in the first place. And now that we have a president who is half black and half white, all of a sudden, its a crime to mark the box that we've been told to mark for years. Back in the day, there was a time if a person would have claimed their white side,openly, it would have caused some major problems.

When Thomas Jefferson's black relatives first claimed their kinship to him, it caused a big mess. Think about how they wanted to deny that Strom Thurmond had a black daughter and pitched a big ruckus over it. Not only that, a lot of blacks in the South have a few white Presidents in their family tree, and they weren't exactly given an option of claiming their white side openly or their kinship with them? They marked black or negro or colored on the census.

BTW, they shipped them off to another plantation most of the time if they happened to be the massa's children to keep the missus from having a coniption fit.

The President marked the box that he has been treated as and referred to as. Funny, when the election was going on how he was referred to and treated as a black man, so why shouldn't he mark the black box?

Bush tax cuts did not do this country any good. In fact, his tax cuts helped the economy go down the drain quicker. So, did his nonregulations policies. Every policy he made was geared towards making the rich richer and the poor poorer. Oh well, Americans should be used to the GOP spinning, only I call it straight out lying about Bush and Reagan's trickle down economic policies.

I'm still waiting on it to trickle down, and I am sure other Americans are too, especially, those who have lost their jobs or homes. Oh wait, does trickle down mean trickle down to the rich or those ridiculous, excessive CEO bonuses ?

An apologia for war won't eliminate the fact that the Iraq war was an elective war, a war that didn't have to be fought.

Thousands of lives were lost on both sides that didn't have to be lost.

Bush's war was immoral. I don't care how careful our fighting forces were in preventing unintended casualties, or how assiduous we were in our care of war victims after the attack, these were deaths this country could have avoided.

My point: Christians do un-Christian things.

A good Christian nation sends its youth off to fight a war against a nation that didn't attack us first.

A good Christian Commander and Chief, knowing that war results in horrific deaths on both sides, justified the attack.

Some good Christian clergy molest children. A good Christian church hierachy protected some of those clergy.

Some good Christian women abort their children.

"You are correct about Bush's irresponsible war spending, but if you look at the numbers, it is small change compared to the long term damage being done by Obama."

What "numbers"? You gave none. You'd have a hard time convincing the Washington Post of your undeclared numbers. In 2008 the Post was putting the cost of the Iraq war to the American tax payer at 3 Trillion dollars, and more.

You speak of the "long term damage being done by Obama" yet you offer no evidence of that. Is it health care reform you're concerned about?

Here're the facts as we know them:

"A preliminary Congressional Budget Office analysis of the Senate health care legislation finds that the bill will cost $849 billion over the next decade while covering 94 percent of eligible Americans...."

And this:

"The bill would also lower the deficit by $127 billion over the next decade -- "going further than any other bill" -- and by $650 billion during the decade after that...."

"FALSE. There were no violations of the Geneva convention. There was no unwarranted "spying" on Americans; phone calls from already identified terrorists to U.S. citizens were screened. If waterboarding two individuals who had information about future terrorist plots is torture, I'm all for it."

Calling a thing "false," doesn't make it so. It just gives us unlimited discretion to make up stuff to support unfounded assertions.

If I'm false, the Supreme Court is false. It was this court that decided that the "Geneva Convention applies to the conflict with Al Qaeda."

"THE SUPREME Court on Thursday dealt the Bush administration a stinging rebuke, declaring in Hamdan vs. Rumsfeld that military commissions for trying terrorist suspects violate both U.S. military law and the Geneva Convention.

"But the real blockbuster in the Hamdan decision is the court's holding that Common Article 3 of the Geneva Convention applies to the conflict with Al Qaeda -- a holding that makes high-ranking Bush administration officials potentially subject to prosecution under the federal War Crimes Act."


Among Article 3 several provisions, it requires the following:

"It requires humane treatment for all persons in enemy hands, without any adverse distinction. It specifically prohibits murder, mutilation, torture, cruel, humiliating and degrading treatment, the taking of hostages and unfair trial."

"If waterboarding two individuals who had information about future terrorist plots is torture, I'm all for it."

No doubt!

Not only is waterboarding illegal, it's un-Christian: "Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you...."

Federal Judge Rules Bush Program Illegally Wiretapped Americans.

In a repudiation of the Bush administration's now-defunct terrorist surveillance effort, a federal judge ruled Wednesday that government investigators illegally wiretapped the phone conversations of an Islamic charity and two American lawyers without a search warrant.

"FALSE. Bush's tax cuts actually made the tax code MORE progressive and increased tax revenues."

Here's my rebuttal to your rebuttal:

" In contrast to the claims made by Bush, Cheney, and Republican presidential primary candidates such as Rudy Giuliani, there is a broad consensus among even conservative economists (including current and former top economists of the Bush Administration such as Greg Mankiw) that the tax cuts have had a substantial net negative impact on revenues (i.e., revenues would have been substantially higher if the tax cuts had not taken place), even taking into account any stimulative effect the tax cuts may have had and any resulting revenue feedback effects.[13"

Not sure what you mean by dishing it out and taking it, Frank. As the incarcerated one in this conversation, you have the expertise on taking it.

Lincoln did consider repatriation as an option but that would have devastated the South even worse than their recently lost war. It would have been a loss to American culture as well.

I will give you credit, Frank. You are the smartest cracker that trolls this site. Kind of like being the smartest kid on the short bus.

Black Diaper: "An apologia for war won't eliminate the fact that the Iraq war was an elective war, a war that didn't have to be fought."

No war ever has to be fought; you can always surrender.

Your problem with the Iraq war is that ist was Bush's war. If Obama had pursued the same course of action, you would be praising him for for freeing 30 million people by removing a genocidal dictator that had killed 600,000 of his own subjects and for removing a state sponsor of terrorist groups that targeted the U.S.

I'm disappointed in your stance. Its perpetuating racism. To be white in this country you have to be fully white and can't be "tainted" by any other race. I think thats bullshit. I use to refuse to call him black only. I would either call him black, white, or bi-racial and i would use all 3 equally. But if he wants to be known only as black, who am i to call him something other than what he wants. I'm disappointed in Obama and you field.

BD, "Now I wonder how many babies are in the number of the dead, how many pregnant women, and how many children?

We're selective in our outrage. Children are children. American children are no more precious than Iraqi children.

American lives are no more valuable than Iraqi lives, or Palestinian lives, or, for that matter, Afghani lives.

Yet, we draw sides and insist that these people are our enemies, and, therefore, their lives are expendable--and we can kill innocence, as long as we're kept safe."

You are absolutely right, BD. But I think that as long as we can legalize killing the unborn in our own country, what's to keep us from killing others outside of our country? Until we can stop killing vulnerable helpless ones in America you might as well forget about Americans caring much about anybody else.

The fact that Bush is a Christian doesn't exonerate Obama and abortion. In this regard, you are being somewhat selective yourself.

Imho, Obama is a better Christian and a better human being with a bigger heart... and certainly a much "higher conscience" than Bush.

Wow, don't let something like facts get in the way of your rant.

"A genocidal dictator that killed 600,000 of his own people."

According to Human Rights Watch the ONLY time a humanitarian intervention could have been justified in Iraq was back in 88 when Saddam gassed 5,000 kurds and shiites. We could have all acted to save lives then, but we didn't. By 2000, no killings were taking place that could justify military intervention as allowed by internatinoal law. (http://news.infoshop.org/article.php?story=04/01/26/8930682)

I have no idea where you pulled 600,000 from and whether it is accurate or not..but maybe as was sated before, you have gotten confused with the number of iraqis that have died SINCE the invasion.

"..removing a state sponsor of terrorist groups that targeted the U.S."

Funny because Saddam was hated by Islamists. His Baath party was secular and he always feared that Islamists would take some of his power..so he clamped down on them hard.

What "the coallition of the willing" achieved in Iraq was to turn a functioning, secular dictatorship into a dysfunctional, theocratic "democracy" that is by all normal standards in the middle of a civil war. Where shiites and sunnis lived in relative peace, there are now staggering amounts of deaths every day due to infighting. And where women felt relatively safe now they are afraid to even walk the streets. Terrorist organizations have only swelled in numbers, because now there is not only Palestine as an excuse to hate the west but also Iraq and Afghanistan. Now more innocent civilians have lost their lives and more countries have been invaded to add to the propaganda against America and the west.

Meanwhile, that other country called Saudi Arabia..you know that one that is an absolute monarchy, that flouts most existing civil and political human rights..where women cannot drive and need the permission of their male guardian to do absolutely everything..where you can be exectued for homosexuality, adultery and even sorcery..the country that produced Osama bin laden, all of the 9/11 hijackers and the extremist wahhabi strain of Islam..that country is still one of Americas best allies.

Hmmm take some time and chew on that! Maybe you'll finally realize that the Iraq war had nothing to do with 9/11, weapons of mass destruction or any kind of humanitarian concern.

President Barry Barack Hussein Obama filled out his census form and sent it back in with the information on himself, his wife, and his family. Even though, President Obama is bi-racial being white and black, Obama says he's black.

So now what happens to his mother? Is she white? Yes she is. Obama's mother is white as snow and from Kansas no less, but was there ever a question? Does it matter?

It seems to matter more to President Obama to say he's black as in this political climate being a victim and black works better at the polls than being a white man.

The same is true of Tiger Woods who claims he was brutally treated as a child being black, even though his kindergarten teacher says it's a lie.

Is the whitenss or blackness of a man an inconvenient truth?

I'm happy for Obama that he has chosen a race to be. Now, why is the question itself not racist and when will do away with the question and answer of race, and just be people?

Obama was raised in white culture. He only chose to be black when it was to his political advantage to do so.

Public Enemy number#1
They know how to treat a gorgeous black man
----

Though, I’m paraphrasing here, it was a reporter from the BBC that said that “everything that is wrong with America can be attributed to a certain dark force”

Obama’s tribulations are no more than lies created and perpetuated by this elite group. They are indeed “Public Enemy Number One”. The BBC was talking about the American Media. If you look at all of the ugliness that has happen in America, none of it would have been possible without the complicity of Mainstream Media. The illegal wars, the destroyed economy, the stolen elections, the pandering to the rich, the scandalizing of people of color, are just a few.

The left is supposed to be an advocate for equality. All deserve a respected life on this planet is their ideology. However, Mainstream Media has never been a friend to liberal causes. Civil rights, women’s rights, gay rights, war protesters, continue to be vilified in American Media. Therefore, if you are an advocate for good, expect to be labeled a communist, anarchist, terrorist, or filthy hippie. Let’s not forget what the great Martin Luther King did to garner such vilification by media. Well, he simply wanted every American to be treated with full human dignity. For that, he died a despised man.

But the Teabaggers are a different lot. Though they are insane, violent, liars - the Right has never been subjected to continuous scorn and ridicule by media. To this day, groups such as the Klan and Nazis are not labeled terrorists. Tim McVeigh, white supremacist and mass murderer, was called an “Uber Patriot”. Barbara Wah-wah spoke of his Safire blue eyes and all American looks. This is nothing new. The media certainly questions the patriotism and humanity of the Left- while praising and acknowledging the Right’s. The Teabaggers feel embolden because their reprehensible behavior has been validated by Mainstream Media. Though they hide behind God and Patriotism, they are neither godly nor patriotic. In reality they are lowlife traitors.

Why is the the media in bed with the Right-wing? Well behind those two thousand dollar suits, and the expensive dyed hair, the geezers that run the media are just as prejudice as the redneck Teabagger. They are just as disconnected from average America. They also could not understand why millions of people all around the world were infatuated with Obama. Little did they know that while they dwelled in the narrow world of the Washington elite, the real world passed them by. Now Obama is leader of the free world. That fugley ass Murdoch has gone completely mad- as well as most of Mainstream Media.

Look! Our media is an incompetent entity, run by greedy, narrow minded bigots. For misinforming the American people, they want to gobble up more media. Unlike Bush, Obama is actually trying to better the country. He definitely does not deserve the vile treatment he is receiving. It’s defamation to the 1000th power.

The American people spoke loudly in 2008. They voted the right-wing out of power. Yet, the Mainstream Media keep shoving this Wingnut propaganda down our throats. It is only a matter of time before they wreak some serious violence. The question is- are we going to sit idly by and let them take down Obama? Because if the right-wing should ever get control of this country again, the revenge they will enact will make Satan look like Jesus!
