Maness Demands Obama Apologize to Louisianans for DOJ Flood Response Memo Implying They Are Racist
Breitbart ^ | 21 Aug 2016 | Michael Patrick Leahy

Posted on 08/21/2016 10:25:45 PM PDT by detective

Retired Air Force Col. Rob Maness, a Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate in Louisiana, called on President Obama to apologize to residents of Louisiana for a 16-page “guidance” sent out last week by his Department of Justice that cautioned Louisianans not to be racist in hiring people to help them clean up after the recent floods that killed 13 and forced more than 30,000 to abandon their homes.

“We’re insulted by the President of the United States and his Department of Justice, and he ought to issue a retraction of that [guidance] to all the good people of Louisiana,” Maness told Breitbart political editor Matt Boyle on Sirius XM Patriot Channel’s Breitbart News Sunday.

Obama is an ahole. Uses the race card every chance he sees to stir up, and further alienate America.

This might be a hint that if they spend the Obama dollar, they should hew to the Obama ethics about it. I.e. we dast not catch you hiring too many rednecks.

I think Obama is referring to after Katrina when New Orleans hired illegals for a lot of the rebuilding.

Perhaps Maness can ask Obama if he now agrees with Trump that bringing in illegals suppresses wages and job opportunities for blacks.

When i first heard about this, I thought it was the Onion satire. People are dodging alligators, water snakes and rats and defending against looting while they’re trying to hold on to their sanity, and he’s worried about diversity in hiring? How about he let the water go down before he starts his racebaiting preachifying.

That'd be a finale I could really get behind.

Will now make fresh coffee and savor that scenario . . .

“I think Obama is referring to after Katrina when New Orleans hired illegals for a lot of the rebuilding.”

Maybe, but if that were the case I think he would’ve used “non-citizens”, “undocumented”, or similar. For Obama, “racist” always is in the context of blacks, and that’s what he meant this time.

He got backed into a corner and looked bad for vacationing until it was convenient for him, plus he got upstaged by Trump. He had to take some kind of little jab.

That’s what I mean. Obama is calling them racist for hiring Latinos instead of blacks.

The real racists in all of this is Obama, Jeh Johnson, Jarrett of course Lynch. They are the true racists.
