Time: The Election Was About Racism Against Barack Obama (White guilt alert)

The racism in this year's election was not about an older stereotype of the Willie Horton-type, but directed against Barack Obama.

Missed that one by a mile, Prof.

It was not against Obama; it was against the policies of Obama in his fundamental changing of America.

Prof, you need to get out of the ivory tower occasionally. Then, you might learn more about flyover country and the mood of the nation.

Obama more to exacerbate racism than the K.K.K. ever did.

Wow, I have read some dumb things on here over the years, but this one pretty much tops the list.

[matt04]

Wait. The left called people racist for disagreeing with them. How oroginial.

[Rastus]

He looks like Levin’s saner brother.

"It is precisely the parity in the achievements of black Americans, those who have become CEOs, scholars, scientists, artists, doctors, lawyers and politicians . . . "

But they keep insisting that they HAVEN'T achieved parity.

[Blue Jays]

A successful and hard-working white majority is the absolute BEST thing to happen to black people in this country.
This self-hating journalist can move to *any* country in Africa that he prefers. He can write us postcards to keep us updated.

Oh, for the Sake of Pete

“It is precisely the parity in the achievements of black Americans, those who have become CEOs, scholars, scientists, artists, doctors, lawyers and politicians—and now even president—that has fueled the resurgence of intolerance and anti-immigrant sentiment.”

This man has a very skewed view of the American public. This is true because the day black Americans achieve parity in achievements with other Americans is the day racial discrimination will die. A majority of Americans want to see this so called parity of achievement. It is desired so badly that affirmative action was made into law.

More fake news. White people voted for Obama in 2008 and 2012. Obama wasn’t running in 2016, so white people didn’t vote for him. They voted for a white male who was running against a white female. Ergo, concludes this numbnuts, whites are racist.

[Stayfree]

Why waste time on our website expressing views of a phucking idiot like this moron

[A_Former_Democrat]

“History of success”?

Yeah, right . . .

[Huskrrrr]

I thought America wasn’t ready for a woman President. I’m so confused.

[wjcsux]

He’s almost a George Soros look-alike.

[rockinqsranch]

I believe most liberals fell on their heads off the monkey bars when they were kids.

[lefty-lie-spy]

This jerkoff is....a real jerkoff. “targeted resentment against the recent history of success by Americans of color”.

He’s just completely making this shit up to make him feel all pajama-boy.

Racism because? Because his racism lost and he’s all poopy pants about it so he projects it on winners.

[a fool in paradise]

I was voting against the legacy of Jimmy Carter II, a red diaper doper baby Marxist with a chip on his anti-American shoulder.

[lgjhn23]

The insanity induced by liberalism raises it’s ugly head every single day.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

I’m sorry. I don’t have so-called “white guilt”’

[funfan]

Sounds like the author is describing himself.
