Obozo never forgot that comment, and totally resents that Bill upstages him whenever they are together
Yeah, Whites who voted for him only did it to make Black people look bad.
I feel so sorry for our poor president. He’s had it rough. How could I be so insensitive?
Since neither one of them has ever had a real job, they should see this as an opportunity to get out of their bubble.
“There’s no black male my age, who’s a professional, who hasn’t come out of a restaurant and is waiting for their car and somebody didn’t hand them their car keys,” the president said.
That’s not racism; that’s snobbishness on the part of the person who is offended at being mistaken for a parking attendant. What’s wrong with being a parking attendant?
The little mulatto that cried Wolf..
they certainly have experience in dishing out racist bs.
Someone at Target who didn’t recognize big-and-tall Michelle asked her for help to get something off a shelf. The horror.
I am white and short and I’ve been asked numerous times in supermarkets to help someone shorter or in a wheelchair to reach something off a high shelf. (I’ve volunteered, too.)
I didn’t take offense.
And I’ve certainly had apparently available cabs drive by me too.
Haven’t been mistaken for a valet. But if well-dressed valets were parking cars as I went into a restaurant, I’d certainly ask the well-dressed man standing there in front of the restaurant on my way out if he was there to bring me my car.
He should take a 17 day vacation in order to regroup.
That's true. The Obamas have been racists all their lives.
I’m as white as the driven snow. In my younger days I worked as a musician in a wedding band. Frequently when I was at a gig where I had to wear a tux people would come up to me and ask me to get their cars or check on their orders.
If I had only known that I was being victimized by racism!
I was wearing a white shirt and a tie while grocery shopping and someone came up to me and asked me where the peanut butter was. I guess I was a victim of white collar racism.
And no one thinks waiters and/or chauffeurs are all black. What a lot of crap.
Did “O” feel oppressed when he was chasing those checks for aid to ‘foreign students’?
Did MO fee oppressed and when she attended college on her free ride-at the expense of American taxpayers?
But I'm the one they ask. This does not cause me major anguish. Guilt sometimes, but not anguish. I also tend to be the one people put their children next to on the bus. When a woman clambers onto a bus dragging several small children with her and looking for an empty seat and a "nice" looking stranger, guess who gets tapped to baby-sit their offspring? And it doesn't matter what color they are, black, latino, Asian, white.... that nice white lady in the long dress is clearly the person who wants to sit next to their child. I have no particular fondness for small children (although I wish them no harm. Unless they're bratty.) But that's how it is. My life has been one long vista of trying to give directions and gently discouraging strange children from climbing on me. I suffer through it somehow.
To be fair, racism isn’t a stranger to the Obamas - it’s a close friend.
It’s disgusting, sickening, and just an embarrassment to see what he has done while in office. Such an opportunity lost with what he could have really done for race relations had he only tried.
Instead, all we get from him is ego, grievances, avoiding responsibility for failures, ect...ect. He is so beneath that office, and it will take a very long time to undo the damage that he has done to the presidency itself.
His failures can not be overstated.
I find this hard to believe. I mean, as wide as her ass is, someone had to ask her to move out of the way a couple times too.
The idiot just can't get a clue.
Michelle is tall. Sometimes I ask tall people to help me take things off the upper shelves. It has nothing to do with race.
