Obama to speak on birth certificate

Statement reposted:

"The point I was making was not that my grandmother harbors any racial animosity. She doesn't," Obama told WIP Sports Radio.

"But she is a typical white person who, if she sees somebody on the street that she doesn't know, there's a reaction that's been bred into our experiences that don't go away and that sometimes come out in the wrong way and that's just the nature of race in our society."


Now please show me where he calls all white people racist.

How about if a white politician, or anyone began a response with "Typical Black Person"? Can you tell me what would be said?

I don't consider Obama's race. :shrug:

But you did when you made the comment about "typical of white people" and probably when you saw the color of the people at his church and Wright...

I am not saying you're racist... I just think you're lecturing people on what your concept of racism is, but you don't realize you're not applying the same rules to yourself.

Read back further. /facepalm
 
Oh good Obama decided to give credence to a bunch of conspiracy retards. What next is he going to give full tours of area 51, have investigations into whether or not Lee Harvey Oswald shot JFK, start caving into the truffer-retards, get the British government to drain Lochness to see if there is monster there?

Noooooo! don't drain Lochness....Nessy needs water, you heartless bastard!

lol

To be fair, it's been claimed that one of Kerry's mistakes (besides being godawful uncharismatic and having a face that makes you want to start a prozac habit) is that he didn't proactively take on the swiftboat idiocy. Hysterically, he believed that if he ignored idiocy, it would be like ignoring an internet troll, thus depriving them of their source of power and making them go away. Didn't quite turn out that way.
 
Well the reason folks like you bring it up, is because that's all you see is race. race, race race, see you think the black man is not as worthy as the white man, therefor you feel the need to scream racism in defense of this poor black man because obviously as a black man he's not as capable as you...


See how stupid that sounds? thats what you all sound like in a nutshell, the dood is black get the **** over it for the love of god. :lamo

I agree that your explaination is indeed stupid just like you wanted it to be.

But I strongly disagree that the person you aimed your vitriol at sounds the same. You are confusing apples with cinderblocks. Don't chip your tooth and that nice piece of grey pie.

Race can be a part of this issue. It does not mean it is the enitire issue ON EITHER SIDE. To ignore that is simply to ignore the totality of what we have seen in the birther movement.

Who says our military is no place for homos?
 
Not what I claimed.

Actually you said:

I just resented your president calling me a racist. Again, he brought it up.

and

you mean when he stated that his grandmothers racism was typical of white people?

Please show me where he called you a racist, said his grandmother was a racist and then accused typical white people of sharing his grandmother's racism.

He said, his grandmothers irrational fear of white people was typical for white people. Can't really get around that one now can we? :lol:
Nope. He didn't say that either. His grandmother's irrational fear is her own fear. He said that the typical white person has "a reaction that's been bred into our experiences that don't go away and that sometimes come out in the wrong way" - whether the reactions were the same as his grandmother's he did not say.

Now, where did he accuse you and all white people of being racists?
 
I'm pretty surprised he's done this. Just shows that when Trump took hold of it, it became mainstream. If he was ever going to do it, he should have done it a long time ago. Indecisive. Knee-jerk. Not very leader-like, in my opinion. The strongest position would have been to do nothing. Personally? I think it harmed the office of the presidency.

Remember Swiftboat?

you dizzy? :lamo
 
almost 4 years ago bro. seriously, get over it.


Obama made a racist statement, and almost 4 years ago I made comments on it. now you want to hurl personal attacks at me. Sorry I insulted your president. :roll:

I am long over it. It is perfectly fair to point out that you used to be one who brought up race alot, and are now bitching about others bringing up race.

I choose to judge the man by his actions, not blame his faults on phantom racists. :shrug:
 
I propose adding a new feature whereby we can hide stupid sub-debates.
 
Sure:

That's like when my sister was in South Chicago... that's where a lot of black people live and some parts are known for being rough, and the car in front of her suddenly stopped in the middle of the road. She said a bunch of guys jumped out of the car, the car drove off, and they all ran into a minimart.. they were wearing baggy pants, underwear hanging out, the stereotypical thug look, and she was worried they might be robbing the store... then she said she felt bad for thinking that. lol

ok. so it's about me. So almost 4 years ago, I took exception to his "typical white person" comment, and that means for now and forever, I can not bring up the fact that idiots on your side make every little thing about Obama's race, I can not defend my self nor the tea party from partisan hacks on your side who claim we are racist, I can no longer state that I am not racist despite the lies from your ilk that I belong to groups that are...

Apparently, if one brings up something almost 4 years ago, he can not bring up a defense if he or things he is part of or things he is not part of but sees no racism in ever.

I mean really, that's some intelligent positioning there Redress. Real classy. :roll:
 
If Trump were to run as an Independent, no doubt. I don't believe Trump can even run after a humiliating defeat like he was just handed.

No matter how you try to spin it, Trump put the birfer thing out there front and center -- and he just got smacked down.

Trump won Obama caved to Trump's pressure
 
So when are the birthers going to admit they were wrong and this entire thing was a waste of time?

You're kidding right? you can't be serious.

You losers voted for a man who showed no proof of eligibility.

You damaged our Constitution.

You called heroes kooks and racists.

You all should be disgusted with yourselves!
