Guilty by Association?



You had to know that I was going to post this!

Now I am not going to spend a lot of time trying to tie this guy to Barak Obama or insinuate that he thinks this way as well. There are enough pundits out there doing this. But I will raise the question about whether one should question his judgment when it comes to following a man who would preach such hate.

And before you get started….By any objective standard, this is hate speech. If you doubt it, ask yourself this question, “If a white pastor were saying the same thing about black people, would you consider it hate speech?” Barak Obama himself has worked to distance himself from his pastor’s comments by comparing his former “Man of God” to a crazy uncle with whom he does not always agree.

Well maybe you can’t choose your family. But you can chose with whom you chose to associate. And you most certainly can choose your pastor. Clearly, Mr. Obama chose this man to be his pastor; the man who married him to his wife, dedicated his children and was his spiritual teacher 20 years. One has to wonder how much his views line up with his pastor’s views and whether someone with that mindset should be president.

Is racism a factor in Democratic race for the nomination

As Obama rolls to an easy victory in the Mississippi primary (61%-37%) one can’t help but notice the racial divide in the party of tolerance and racial equality. 70% of white democrats chose Hillary, while 90% of black voters supported Obama.

According the Associated Press:


CONTEST POLARIZED BY RACE

In the Democratic race, Mississippi voters were strongly polarized by race, even more than in most other states that voted this year. Seventy percent of whites voted for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, while 92 percent of blacks voted for Sen. Barack Obama. Clinton won among both white women, a group she normally carries, and white men, a key swing group in this campaign. Clinton won the votes of 68 percent of white men, one of her best showings to date. About half of the voters in the Democratic primary were black.

A quarter of whites said race was important to their votes, and they voted overwhelmingly for Clinton. Thirty-seven percent of blacks said race was important to their votes and nearly all voted for Obama.

25% of white voters said race was an important factor and they almost all voted for Hillary… a white woman- no racism here! And 37% of blacks voters said that race was an important factor in who they voted for… a black man… no racism here either!

Has Obamania infected the Main Stream Media?



Before the "You are being mean to Barak!" comments start flowing from youObamaniacs, let me say that this is posted in fun. Because it is funny!


But on a more serious note: It is hard to deny the love affair that the main stream media has with him. But as with their once heated romance with John McCain, the media loves to build people up only to eventually tear them down again. But hey, don't they say that "All is fair in love and war."

Just a bit of GOP humor I thought you would appreciate.
