Obama came AFTER this guy.

Ever since he appeared on the national scene as a keynote speaker at the Democratic National Convention of 2004, anybody saying practically anything about Barack Obama has run the risk of being labeled "anti-black", a racist, or even a likely member of the Ku Klux Klan. Even Obama's now Vice-President, Joe Biden came under attack as "racially insensitive" when, in trying to compliment Obama, he said "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy," and followed it with..

Americans are getting really tired of the race card being played all the time just to try to shut down debate or criticism. Black leadership better figure that out soon, or they are going to end up alienating at least some of those who supported them in the past.
The race card allows us to become Hitus and Tutsis.
That ended so well.
Does anyone care if they get called a racist by the left anymore? Since its use became primarily a politcal weapon rather than an indication of genuine moral outrage, the term has lost meaning.
That’s right, it’s because he’s green, and I don’t mean environmentally...
Obama came AFTER this guy.
Will smith would probably be a better president.
Its because he’s an idiot.
How about Robert Smalls

The issue is not skin color, but Judeo-Christian values without which America cannot continue.
Racially insensitive = You don’t hate your own race enough.
His 6% black half can hardly be held responsible for the actions of his other 2 halves.
To tell the truth I believe it is because he is black and I seriously mean it. Had Barack Obama not been black he never would have been in the running for President. I say this sadly but he is the least qualified President I have ever seen in over 70 years. People are really afraid to call him out on his ineptness for fear of being called a racist.
When the stink came out of Obama’s association with the, er, Reverend Wright, the race card took a back seat. In retrospect, I can see that the Obama team was more upset about the tarnishing of the race card than the actual association of Bigoted Black Reverend.
Here’s the irony: conservatives would jump to put Walter Williams or Herman Cane in the WH.
Liberals don’t even know who they are.
Walter and Herman should run together, and win. Put this racist BS to death, forever.
He was elected because he’s black. The idiot voters ignored everything else about him, like his utter inexperience.
I take it as a badge of honor when a leftist calls me racist. That means that I must have been making points that hit very close to home.
obama is the worst thing to happen to black progress in this country since the start of slavery. As the first affirmative action president he has ruined the chnace for any black man to be looked at seriously until that man has proven himself capable.
And that is truly sad. Decades of racial progress wiped out in a few short months.
