So here we go again. Rather than take on the IPORTANT ISSUES OF THE DAY, we will fight the same old fight on race. Rather than move forward we will run in place or go backward. Notice, how Sean Hannity got so upset about this pastor. Why did he not get upset when Pastor Hagee endorsed John McCain? Hagee is imfamously anti-catholic, but no outcry? WHY!!!! His Pastor made the remarks and should have to explain himself, not Obama.

Obama's speech was an honest account of America. We have come a long way as far as race is concerned but we still are a long, long way from perfect. Anything else would have been politically correct bullshit.

4 /4

From Obama’s speech in San Fransico:

"You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them," he said.

"And it's not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations,"

3 /4

From Obama’s Audacity of Hope: 'I will stand with the {Muslims} should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.' page 261.

2 /4

From Obama’s Dreams of My Father: ; 'It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.'

From Obama’s Dreams of My Father:

I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, Dubois and Mandela.'

1 /4 Obama’s Anti-American sentiment.

.

From Obama’s Dreams of My Father: 'I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating> myself to whites.'

.

From Obama’s Dreams of My Father: 'I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mothers race.'

.

From Obama’s Dreams of My Father: 'There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.'

[PJB567]

He is a phoney pure and simple, anyone who follows a RACIST reverend with such hateful views of America and Whites is not the person that needs to be leading this country you stupid fool.

[Slimjim6816]

This entire speech is talking about you.

[wilburjr]

If we are to turn the page, then we must turn it, and begin again on a BLANK page. No one alive today is responsible for the deeds of people alive two hundred years ago. Black people have fought tooth and nail to 'sit at the table', especially in the past fifty years, or so. They have arrived, in spite of terrible odds. No one can change the past, but we, together as equal Americans, can build a better future for all. We should begin again, as equals, to seek a better country for ALL Americans.

[defzepled]

Obama was supposed to be the race-neutral presidential candidate who would unite people of all races, but it turns out he is nothing more than a black man peddling-out the same old "blame whitey" excuses rather than focusing on personal responsibility and the hardships blacks inflict on themselves, such as a 70% illegitimacy rate. It is a scientific "fact", not to mention common sense, that people from broken families are more likely to live in poverty, turn to crime and repeat the cycle.

[PJB567]

He doesn't have a chance to win this race.
