when Benjamin Obama was flying his kite…
Well, at least he did not invent the internet, as we all know Al gore did.
John thinks because we do not support the Marxist Obama and make fun of his narcissism that we are racist, and does not realize that there was and still is a lot of support on this thread for Condi Rice, Herman Cain, Allen West, Thomas Sowell and many other black people. As well, there is a lot of support here for Rubio. Colour has nothing to do with it. Radical leftist politics with communist friends however does. If you are a friend of van Jones and Alinsky, you have no friends here.
As soon as John pulled out the old race card, any credibility he might have had immediately vanished. The use of the term “racist” is so overused and misused that it has been rendered meaningless.
News flash John … you are the one making race an issue in this discussion. It seems that the first one to point and yell “racist” is always the one that brings skin colour to the forefront.
The point is that Obama is an incompetent, self-centred individual regardless of colour.
And somehow, inevitably, this is about Bush. Look, it’s getting a bit old. Have you considered Nixon?
Coolidge? Calvin Coolidge?
John, you’re not an “elitist”. You’d very much like for someone whom you imagine to be in what you picture as the “elite” to notice you. It’s not quite the same thing.
“That you guys don’t get that it’s important for Obama to be in this shot demonstrates that you get nothing.”
No, it demonstrates that we have different priorities than you do, idiot. Since America is going to be tanked, I couldn’t give a %u(k if the man in the captain’s hat, raised as he was in a peculiarly hippyish North American kind of emotionally neglected privilege, is descended on one side from an “elite” group of arabized east Africans who were slave owners and in all likelyhood slave traders. You’re the narrow-minded hick who sees dark skin and immediately starts playing highlights from some half-remembered episode of Roots or an 80s TV special or some other equally disingenuous maudlin piece of saccharine junk in your head, and probably still couldn’t find Kenya on a map in under 2 minutes.
I just want to laugh at the hateful fool – his narcissism, his inept corruptocrat administration, his vulgar wife – to distract me while he helps burn the future down. It affords me entertainment. It distracts me. Geddit, “elitist”?
Do you know who this picture should offend? People who revere Rosa Parks, about whom I’m willing to bet you know nothing, good or bad.
Black Mamba, excellent comments. Yes, you are right; that picture of Obama should indeed offend any and all people who respect Rosa Parks.
the link appears to be broken…
so I googled weaselzippers but did not find a story on Obama and rosa Parks
what am I doing wrong???
That bus is in the national human rights museum in Memphis. They took the hotel where MLK was shot and turned it into a museum, and a darn good one. I know this because my wife and I went there on our honeymoon (plus Graceland, Nashville, Lynchburg, etc.).
My point is, Obama’s itinerary (avail online) shows him in Washington the last couple days. He didn’t make a special trip to observe the anniverdary of the Rosa Parks incident, it’s a file photo.
Oh, and a handy trick: if you want to find Obama in an historical photo, just look for him beside Forrest Gump.
Thanks, ET.
why won’t “the smartest guy in the room” let us see his college transcripts? If he was the smartest guy his ego would be shouting the results from the rooftops. Where did he come from? Nowhere.
How did he get to be president? He’s an empty suit.
Nothing about him stands out. Nothing.
Judge the living and the dead.
The race card won Obama the presidency,it certainly wasn’t the content of his character,or his accomplishments.
It is not surprising that John pulls it out to show his elitism.

Obama the divine one. Like this isn’t normal for a guy who thinks hes like a Pharaoh. A god on Earth. A Priest King. No one else can be above him.
Heal the planet — done
Recede the oceans — done
Has he given birth to a royal baby yet?
As Obama has been raised in privilege and has never had the black American experience, this photo just adds to the belief that he is a pathological narcissist, thereby giving the good ET more grist for the mill. Have at it, ET. Once you’ve finished throwing up at this disgraceful spectacle, comment and comment again. I’m just clean disgusted at this man and his attention-seeking ways, as well as the morons who voted him back in.
“As Obama has been raised in privilege”
Right. Privilege like the kind GWB had, being raised as a half breed by a single mom.
He might not have had the Black experience you think he should have had, but if he tried to sit at the front of the bus in Park’s time, you can be he’d spend the night in jail.
And don’t feel too badly about Obama not getting enough of the Black experience as a kid, he’s experienced quite a bit of that since becoming president.

John, your stereotypes are invalid.
Obama wasn’t raised as a ‘half-breed’, whatever that means to you. Are there specific ways in which people of multiple backgrounds are raised? Hmmm?
Are people of Asian and European parents ‘half-breeds’ to you as well? Is there a specific mode in which they are raised? Well?
It is equally irrelevant that Obama was raised by a ‘single parent’. She herself underwent no hardship, and Obama, you are ignoring, went to expensive private schools all his life.
No, Obama hasn’t experienced a whiff of the ‘black experience’ since becoming president. Not a whiff, whether travelling around the world, bowing before Saudi princes, chattering away as the band played the UK National Anthem, or on holiday in Martha’s Vineyard.
But boy, Obama, like you, milks the racist meme. Heh. Do you know why? Because his key method of interacting with others is via emotional manipulation. He, like you, refuses to deal with the real world of facts. We criticize Obama for his failures of economic and social policy. Strange that you consider that BECAUSE of his skin colour, he should not be criticized. Incredible.
If you spoke about Jews the way you do others you’d be charged with spreading hate.
ok4ua – so much stupid crammed into that little sentence. It’s like a form of poetry.

John, if you expended five minutes of intellectual effort, you would know that after Obama’s deadbeat dad walked out on Obama and his mother, she went to live with her very well-off parents who sent Obama to private schools in affluent neighbourhoods. He then went on to Harvard and the rest is history. And how did he win the election? Did he not ask for “revenge” against Romney (for what, I cannot say)?
No, Obama is nothing like Rosa Parks but he would like to take her prized place in history for himself.
I must say this newly discovered respect for Rosa Parks by SDA readers is truly heartwarming. Once this opportunity to use her as an excuse to rave and bluster about Obama fades, I assume you’ll collectively return to the old Shaidle-esque contempt for her; but it’s nice to you recognize her just this once.

Balbulican, Kathy Shaidle is here. Engage her. Go on.
And your “subtle” insinuation of racism makes you a sad, petty, little man, and I mean little.
