I heard these words on the radio shortly ago. I couldn't believe it, that's more arrogant, more condescending, more egotistical than Michelle's comments about America and Obama.

So I checked. Yep, he said the words. Full story at link.

...“It’s a sign of enormous growth in this country.”...

The only enormous growth is the one on top of his shoulders.

The implication being a vote for the other guy is the unenlightened act of a small-minded bigot, and there’s no room in Obama’s America for such people.

Stand by. This is just the beginning. In one month, anyone who says or prints anything negative about BO will be a racist.

But, we have folks here on FR who are still going to sit back and give him a free pass to the White House.

He’s not thankful, he’s “proud”. Pure Michelle. America is “growing” because they voted for him. In his opinion. No, he’s certain of it.

A sign of enmormous growth? Yeah, sure. Yeah, we came such a long way. This country has hated blacks for so long now until recently.

Just like his wife is just now proud of her country now that her husband is running for Pres.

I swear, those two are not only closet marxist but closet racist aswell.

Yea, sure...and the Oceans are going to stop rising and the planet is going to be healed too because of the great Obamanation. Sure.


Nothing you can say or do will convince these people otherwise...


Because I am the one they and I have been waiting for...and I am lovin' it.

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

Those wild eyed people represent the millions of Americans raised in the government day-care and indoctrination centers we call public schools who did not have, or would not listen to, parents and others who tried to counterweight the garbage they heard at school...who have been raised on 60 second sound bite time spans and know no better.

You have other tens of millions on the dole who will vote for him regardless of position because he promises to keep pilfering the public largess for them.

Still othes of millions will vote for him simply because he is black.

Other millions will vote for him because they know exactly who he is and what he represents and agree with his anti-American positions.

The first three are all what is termed, useful idiots, a term coined by Lenin for the dupes he got to support him.

Against this it is left to us to educate, arouse, and amass the tens of millions of Americans who understand and hold fast to the foundational principles our constitutional republic rests upon...many of them the bitter, rural Americans clinging to their guns and religion that Obama so arrogantly spoke of.

After watching him on TV I get this distinct impression of Adolph Hitler when he was giving speeches (no, I’m not that old - I like the History Channel).

Yeah, we've never been closer to having an unreconstructed Marxist as POTUS.

Bingo! And the very reason he made the remark. What an azzhat. This is just the beginning, but I think it will backfire big time. I cannot see anyone who is not already for him being cajoled with this crapola into voting for him in the privacy of the voting booth, but I can see many undecideds telling him to eff off.

Marxism? Naw, Narcissistic personality disorder.

And while I’m armchair psychologizing, I bet grandma, who raised him, expressed often how proud she was of him, how smart he was, imbued in him a sense of superiority and entitlement, which made her shock so great when she read his book and how much he undervalued her, aka “typical white woman”.

is the result of his hard working bleeding heart liberal mother and grandparents the White ones, and of course affirmative action.

How gratifying.

A narcissistic and racist Marxist thinks we did the right thing.

And he's proud of us...

Never question the pronouncements of the Twelfth (or is it the Thirteenth) Imam. Iran is ready and waiting for his rising.

I’ve met lots and lots of people just like Obama. More a symptom of his generation than his race. You can expect him to never lose a night’s sleep, never realize he’s screwing up, never break a sweat. Just a typical entitled self important yuppie empty suit.

Obama is all about arrogance. His slam about rural folks clinging to their guns quote revelaed his true nature.
