Obama Warns Political Speech Can Lead to Violence
Flopping Aces ^ | 05-02-10 | Mike's America

Will he take responsibility for false claims made about Arizona immigration law after Sheriff's Deputy was shot by illegal aliens?

Obama delivered the commencement address at the University of Michigan on Saturday. His speech had more straw man arguments than there were graduates. Apparently, if you oppose his policies you are anti-democratic and seeking to overthrow the legitimate government as defined by him.

In the middle of a long lecture on why strong opposition prevents you from realizing he knows what is best for you and blocks "compromise" (as if he has ever supported real compromise) he dropped the "v" word. Apparently, vocal opposition to his policies "coarsens our culture, and at its worst, it can send signals to the most extreme elements of our society that perhaps violence is a justifiable response." After eight years of an unrelenting hate campaign directed by President George Bush by top Democrat leaders it's astonishing to hear Obama demand that now people must watch what they say.

Did Obama's words lead to violence in Arizona?

But we don't have to go back to the Bush years to see the hypocrisy in Obama's speech. Only last week Obama told a crowd in Iowa that the new Arizona immigration law would mean that "Now, suddenly, if you don’t have your papers, and you took your kid out to get ice cream, you’re going to get harassed "

Especially his speeches. I was on a flight today from El Paso the guy next to me was a US Border guard. He got Obummers message and said that most folks with his agency can’t wait for his term to end since Obummer doesn’t get it.

Yeah, look what his own words have done- led to a terror attack in NYC. The fool doesn’t get the irony in his own words.

He must be a constitutional scholar... ‘cause the 2nd is to protect the 1st....

Politically, Obama is a Turkey.

Exactly.

But, to Obama and the State Controlled Media:

Political speech by lefties is healthy dissent.

Political speech by the right is hate speech, racist, incites violence, etc.

No defense against NPT states against nukes, chem, or bio.

1. “the U.S. will not “use or threaten to use nuclear weapons against non-nuclear weapons states,” according to a statement (by 0bama) released by the White House. In addition, Mr. Obama pledged not to conduct nuclear testing or develop warheads.”

http://whitehouse.blogs.foxnews.com/2010/04/06/president-obama-vows-to-defend-the-u-s-despite-limits-on-nuclear-weapons/

2. “For the first time, the United States is explicitly committing not to use nuclear weapons against nonnuclear states that are in compliance with the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, even if they attacked the United States with biological or chemical weapons or launched a crippling cyberattack.”

NYT per http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/2865164/obama_to_restrict_american_nuclear.html?cat=9

IOW, yes. His political speech about ‘the solution’ leads to violence against the US by foreign enemies.

- Race baiting speech leads to violence!
- Class warfare speech leads to violence!
- “Evil” corporation speech leads to violence!

Guess which party thrives and survives on the above violent speech? It's the same party who opposed the abolition of slavery, created the Jim Crow laws, opposed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and was supported by the KKK.

That would be the Democratic Party...

Biologically, he has the both-white-and-dark-meat thing going for him there, too.

And I'd like to tell him to Stuff It.

The serial-lying community agitator needs to point the finger at himself.
~~~~~~~~~~`

From the article:

Nowhere does Obama take responsibility for his overheated rhetoric which is meant to whip his supporters into an angry frenzy in advance of November’s election.

Nowhere in his speech does he suggest that maybe he or his supporters should tone down the angry rhetoric which has become an almost daily feature of Democrat politics.

This kind of lopsided demand for civility leaves us with only one conclusion: Obama is willing to demonize opposition on the right, including false claims about their motives, while actively fanning the flames of anger and hate on the left.

And saying “If They Bring a Knife to the Fight, We Bring a Gun” is ok too, as long as you’re a leftist. Ironic yet typical drivel coming from the head Ahole in DC.

Let’s face it. We have two black crass and classless idiots occupying the White House. And here I thought it couldn’t get any worse with the Clintons, two white crass and classless idiots.

Must be why there was an attempted bombing in NY last night after his speech.
