Maybe obama should stop playing the race card then with his silly speechs.

It wouldn’t fit with Obama’s agenda, to be able to call everyone else who criticizes him a racist - and be a victim at the same time.

Racism is Obama’s trump card. I did not think he would use it yet. But desperate times call for desperate measures. With his poll numbers not where he wants them, he is using his hole card early.

I say you go a step further than not caring, I say you actively attack it. When the Obama camp, aka “the media”, questions you about the racial content of any message you just need to remind them of Rev Wright and Pfleger. Something along the lines of “I find it unsuprising that a person whose judgement has been tainted by extreme racist and anti-american positions of Rev Wright and Pfleger would see it that way. That being said, he is free to define racism however he wants but in doing so, I believe, he maligns the people that acually suffer from it by trivializing it for his political convience. Accordingly, I think the American people would perfer stronger leadership than the petty grievence mongering of deperate and divisive racial politics. “

I say you go a step further than not caring, I say you actively attack it.

I respectfully disagree.  In the first place, responding to such accusation only lends credence to them.  It also means that you wind up in a discussion about race, rather than a discussion about the glaring policy deficiencies of those on the Left, especially Mr. Obama.  Despite the many plaintive pleas from those on the Left to “stick to the facts and the issues”, the reality is that’s the last thing they want… and with good reason.

Just as importantly, those who are going to be swayed by vapid accusations of racism are probably already supporting Obama and the Democrats, while those who know better are more likely to be influenced by the paucity of substance of the Obama campaign, rather than being mesmerized by platitudes from the candidate and plaudits from the press.

Being labeled a racist by some leftwing crank with nothing more consequential to offer is hardly worth the bother in any case.

“Poverty of goods is easily cured; poverty of the mind is irreparable.”

‘Well, we know we’re not very good but you can’t risk electing Obama. You know, he’s new, he doesn’t look like the other presidents on the currency, he’s a got a funny name.’”

I don’t know why Republicans are playing the race card here.

They claimed it wan’t racist when they said he looked like a monkey, but they think it IS racist when someone says he doesn’t look like other presidents on the currency.

It’s a hypocritical double standard, but we certainly aren’t surprised to hear it from our the Republicans and the right-wing side of SAB.

So someone tell me which other President on the currency looks like a Monkey?

Obama is the real “monkey-lookin’ guy” here.  Not all Presidents appear on our currency; only the good ones.  No matter what happens in November, he won’t be appearing on our currency.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

Obama is the real “monkey-lookin’ guy” here.

Damn. Next you’re going to call him a spearchucker eh?

Somebody a few comments up has shown his head from behind his non-racist facade.

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” ~Theodore Roosevelt

Exactly Nunez.  I don’t think it will take much for other SAB audience to catch up to Robert.

I guess I could take Sparkie and Hanni’s assessment a little more seriously if they would address all the “Chimpy McHaliburton” and monkey related cartoons when discussing George Bush in political discourse on the left.

I was talking about his ears, morons!  As usual, it was you lefties who played the race card here.  As far as his being on the money, that is reserved for great Americans who have achieved greatness in the service of our Constitution and founding principles.  I doubt very much that Obama will ever qualify under any of those standards.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

Rob B
Salient point. Apparently you weren’t here when I asked, “Who is C[h]impy McHitler?” It was an infamous moment… that lasted a few months.
I’d rather make fun of people for their shitty policy than their celebrity rating or their appearance.

Yun Chu said, “You must strictly not express in words what is very significant. Both dragon and snake are killed in one blow.”

I was talking about his ears, morons!

Yes, you were commenting on his LOOKS!  So how is Obama talking about his LOOKS any different?

Hint: It’s not.

As far as his being on the money, that is reserved for great Americans who have achieved greatness in the service of our Constitution and founding principles.

You mean founding principles such as not invading countries that are not threatening the US?  I think Obama represents that long standing American principle more so than any Republican of the current administration or its supporters.

Again, you guys are playing the race card and you just proved it with your own hypocrisy.  Thank you for helping me out Robert.

Hint: It’s not.

He was playing the race card, I wasn’t. Do you claim he was talking about his ears?

Our country was founded by fighting for our freedom from a world power; England.  Obama wants to run away from the terrorists, and then appease them by revealing his agenda before any “negotiations” take place.  That kind of cowardice is not a part of our founding principles.
Wrong again, Sparkie.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

Obama has yet to achieve anything; even his education was handed to him by a quota program.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

Do you claim he was talking about his ears?

I said his looks, Obama said his looks.  You guys and McCain are simply playing the race card and I just proved it.

The only thing you proved is that you are a patented hypocrite. 

Our country was founded by fighting for our freedom from a world power; England.  Obama wants to run away from the terrorists,

Are you equating a nation states (Great Britain) power to that of a nationless group of renegades, the terrorist’s?

That is a false equivalence and you are not tricking anyone with that dog.  That dog don’t hunt.

Iran is a nation state.  Duh.
I was referring to his ears, and I’m not the only one.  I believe someone else thought he looked like Curious George.  All you lefties have is the race card.  Without it, you have nothing with which to sell this guy.  He’s an inferior product, and you know what happens to inferior products in the free market.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

You mean founding principles such as not invading countries that are not threatening the US?  I think Obama represents that long standing American principle more so than any Republican of the current administration or its supporters.

H,

First lets have some precision here.  You may believe that, but to say you think it is probably a stretch.

More importantly, is this the same Obama who was trumpeting his intention to invade Pakistan?  Is that the guy you’re cooing about?

“Poverty of goods is easily cured; poverty of the mind is irreparable.”

Iran is a nation state.  Duh.

So then terrorists should get the same rights as those provided by the Geneva Convention?

I was referring to his ears, and I’m not the only one.  I believe someone else thought he looked like Curious George.

Yes, your comments were as racist as they get, as everybody knows that racists compare blacks to monkeys, while Obama’s remarks were merely talking about looks in general.

All you guys have is the race card.  Because McCain is an inferior product, you guys have to stoop to the lowest levels of hatred out of your jealousy.

Bat,

Without distracting from the topic of this post too much, that of the race card being played here by McCain, let’s remember one thing:

Those who attacked us live on the Pakistani border and they continue to strike us from that location.  You know darn well that Obama want’s to take the fight to the enemy.

That is a long standing American tradition.

So then terrorists should get the same rights as those provided by the Geneva Convention?

No, moron!  They’re non-uniformed combatants.  Are you really that stupid?

Save America; boycott the MSM.

R108,

Well, now you’ve gone and done it!  You’ve forced him to call you a racist.  Oh… the horror!

“Poverty of goods is easily cured; poverty of the mind is irreparable.”

None of that has anything to do with Obama’s appeasement offers to Iran and the terrorists in general, though.  There is no relationship between that and the Geneva Convention.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

Bat: Without the race card, the Dems have nothing in this election.  Expect them to call every white person a “racist” for having white skin.  Oh, wait!  Black liberation theology already does that.  Doh!

Save America; boycott the MSM.

You know darn well that Obama want’s to take the fight to the enemy.

That is a long standing American tradition.

H,

I know no such thing about Obama… and neither do you.  I know what he has said… this time… and last time… and the time before that.  But that’s the trouble with being indecisive, isn’t it.

As for long-standing American traditions, I’d put Freedom and Winning at the top of that list, and I don’t see that Obama’s ill-conceived plans for Iraq have much to do with either.

“Poverty of goods is easily cured; poverty of the mind is irreparable.”

...I don’t see that Obama’s ill-conceived plans for Iraq have much to do with either.

And yet he claims to support a “surge” in Afghanistan, at least for now.  Next week...who knows?

Save America; boycott the MSM.

You know darn well that Obama want’s to take the fight to the enemy.

He just has a problem identifying the enemy.  Today he thinks that the enemy is McCain and other ‘racists’ that criticize him.

You don’t have to be a moron to be a liberal Democrat but it sure helps.

Not to mention the economic success of the free enterprise system.  That’s the real enemy of the Marxists and black separatists. Those are Obama’s roots.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

I said his looks, Obama said his looks.  You guys and McCain are simply playing the race card and I just proved it.
The only thing you proved is that you are a patented hypocrite. 

If calling someone a monkey is racist, then everytime the leftists called Bush a monkey it was racist. It’s a pitiful double standard. “When we do it, it’s cuase you’re a monkey. When you do it, it’s cause you’re racist.” At least those who call Obama a monkey don’t hide behind some pretext of how enlightened they are....it’s mockery, pure and simple.

Without distracting from the topic of this post too much, that of the race card being played here by McCain, let’s remember one thing:

Except McCain didn’t play the race card. Obama said “They’ll tell you not to vote for me cause I’m black. And black is scary!” McCain called him on it. What tripe.

Those who attacked us live on the Pakistani border and they continue to strike us from that location.  You know darn well that Obama want’s to take the fight to the enemy.

And going after them without Pakistan’s support...taking the war to them would be, as Obama called it, a dumb war. We would be pissing off an unstable ally with nukes. It may push the country fully into extremism and allow the inmates the run the asylum. For all the tripe about how wrong it was to invade Iraq, Pakistan would be an Iraq sized gaffe multiplied by approximately three hundred trillion.

For the first time in my adult life, I am ashamed of my country.

Not only is he a racist at heart, maybe even only unconsciously, he adds another layer of lying about it.

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” ~Theodore Roosevelt

nunez,

That Teddy Roosevelt quote is interesting.  I was not familiar with it.

I assume that Roosevelt’s wisdom should be applied as well to candidates for the Presidency… regardless of whether they are black or white?

“Poverty of goods is easily cured; poverty of the mind is irreparable.”

I know no such thing about Obama… and neither do you.  I know what he has said… this time… and last time… and the time before that.  But that’s the trouble with being indecisive, isn’t it.

So you are saying then it is hard for our enemies to know what Obama’s position is and then they will never know where he stands even if he says so before going to have diplomatic leaders of the problem countries?

Sounds like a great way to keep our enemies guessing to me.  You are basically saying Robert’s conclusion is all wet.

Kenny,

Except McCain didn’t play the race card.

McCain played the race card the moment he accused Obama of making racist remarks by simply suggesting he doesn’t look like the old men on the currency we use.

There is nothing racist about comparing age to youth.

And going after them without Pakistan’s support...taking the war to them would be, as Obama called it, a dumb war. We would be pissing off an unstable ally with nukes.

Bush does it all the time, and you congratulate his for it.  Why the double standard?

It may push the country fully into extremism and allow the inmates the run the asylum.

Bush does it all the time.  Why the double standard?

Sounds like a great way to keep our enemies guessing to me.

Wrong.  He has already told the terrorists how he going to appease them; the only people he “keeps guessing” are Dems/lefties; conservatives know what he is.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

Bat One,

I really could care less if you have constructive criticism of Obama, that’s what a democracy is all about. Although I think when people call him a ‘monkey’ they are contributing nothing to the conversation and are degrading this blog and this country. Some people believe, and they may actually have a good intent, although they must realize that they are doing more harm by contributing to fruitless flame wars and childish battles.

When you find someone who will never take a step back and look at their conclusions and decisions and re-think them, they are their own enemy. These are the people that rarely learn new things and never explore beyond reinforcing what they believe what is already true. They often fall into traps of self-chosen ignorance.

Engaging people in battles like two bulls ramming each others head together accomplishes nothing, except sore horns. The idea that a person should ‘never give an inch’ is defeating the whole purpose of a civil conversation and the idea of good government as a compromising body.

“I can win an argument on any topic, against any opponent. People know this, and steer clear of me at parties. Often, as a sign of their great respect, they don’t even invite me.” ~Dave Berry

“It is impossible to defeat an ignorant man in argument.” ~William G. McAdoo

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” ~Theodore Roosevelt

Although I think when people call him a ‘monkey’ they are contributing nothing to the conversation and are degrading this blog and this country.

I think the same thing of people who call Bush a “chimp.”

When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.

Rob’s recently listened-to songs:

Wrong.  He has already told the terrorists how he going to appease them; the only people he “keeps guessing” are Dems/lefties; conservatives know what he is.

According to Bat, Obama keeps him guessing as well.  So you have been proven wrong by your own.

Make up your mind Robert.  Is Obama’s position well known and unchanging or is it changing from one minute to the next?

Go ahead, contradict Bat.

Make up your mind Robert. Is Obama’s position well known and unchanging or is it changing from one minute to the next?

Sorry you’re so confused, little boy; I’ll ‘splain it to you.  Obama is a black separatist and a Marxist; as such, his positions are predetermined by his ideology.  His public positions(what he says) changes according to who he’s trying to fool on any given day.  Only a fool like you would be confused about that.

To summarize: His actual positions have been fixed for a long time, but his public positions(his lies) change all the time.  Get it?

Save America; boycott the MSM.

His public positions(what he says) changes according to who he’s trying to fool on any given day.  Only a fool like you would be confused about that.

Oh I see.  So then he is fooling the terrorists because he keeps changing his position and therefore, your argument about giving up his strategy is bogus.  Got it.

Sounds like he is much more clever than Bush, who never changes his position and is predictably horrible at making the same tired mistakes.

Is Obama’s position well known and unchanging or is it changing from one minute to the next?

Obama flip flops more than DNC has been John F’N Kerry.
I think McCain should take a month off and let Obama talk himself out of the race.

Got it.

What; bad breath, crabs, the clap?

The world’s Muslims know perfectly well who Barack Hussein Obama is.  They know perfectly well that it is OK to lie to infidels.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

I agree and don’t even get the joke.

Nobody but the lefties called Obama a monkey.  Some(myself included) say he looks a bit monkeylike with his big ears sticking out like they do.  This isn’t a substantive objection to him, but he made an issue out of his looks, so all comments on that subject are fair game.  His black separatist/Marxist ideology disqualify him for being President, IMO, not his looks.
If he supported America, the Constitution and the founding principles, he would be OK with me, despite his looks.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

The world’s Muslims know perfectly well who Barack Hussein Obama is.  They know perfectly well that it is OK to lie to infidels.

I see, so the Muslims can never know what Obama’s position is, because they think he is a liar.  Sounds like he’s in a much better position than Bush, who stubbornly lets the enemies know exactly where he stands and is never unchanging.  They can just manipulate the situation to trick the foolish Bush.

Nobody but the lefties called Obama a monkey.  Some(myself included) say he looks a bit monkeylike with his big ears sticking out like they do.

And now you are backing away from calling him a Monkey.  Classic.

This is more fun than a barrel of monkeys.

I see, so the Muslims can never know what Obama’s position is, because they think he is a liar.

No, moron; they know he is a Muslim and is lying to us infidels.

And now you are backing away from calling him a Monkey.  Classic.

You lie again: I said he was “a monkey-looking guy”.  Another classic lie from you.  He brought his looks into the national dialogue.

Save America; boycott the MSM.
