What can I say that won't get pulled (rightfully so)?

I know - When a wound is healing, it's always a good idea to scratch the scab off.

[Abcdefg]

400 years of oppression, BUMP!

Barack Hussein? You mean Barack Osama, I mean, Obama...

Obama used the forum to highlight the 34 violent deaths of African-American young people in the Chicago area this past school year.

Did he also mention that they were all gunned down by young African-American people?

I saw a recent poll that showed that 58% of Americans think that our country is ready to vote for a black man. 92% said that they would vote for one.

What accounts for the missing 34%? A group of people who feel better about themselves than the average American for voting for a black man. And that’s what we’re looking at: Obama is going to be very tough to beat. People are going to vote for the man just because they’d feel bad about not doing it.

The guilt complex in this country is a major advantage for him. I also saw in another poll that he is seen as the second most religious candidate in this coming presidential race, trailing only Mitt Romney. There is a big gap between those two and the next candidate.

It doesn’t seem to matter that Obama’s church has held transgendered theological conferences and speaks of black power. He’s pretty much bulletproof.

An in-your-face Obama "The massacre that happened at Virginia Tech was a terrible tragedy, and we were grief-stricken and shocked," Obama said. "But in this year alone in Chicago, we have had 34 Chicago Public School students gunned down, and for the most part there has been silence. We have to make sure that we change our politics so that we care just as much about those 34 kids in Chicago as we do about those kids at Virginia Tech."

Lightweight. No, you're not supposed to change your politics to "care just as much", you're supposed to try not to let incidents like those happen again.

Why would I want to elect a person with such obvious vengeance in their heart?

I don't know anything about this, but I could take a guess as to the race of the perpetrators.

But I won't, because that would be racist of me.

Obama held his own against his closest rival, Sen. Hillary Clinton, at the 98th NAACP National Convention at Cobo Hall in Detroit on Thursday morning.

Sorry... a dead cat has more personality that hellary clinton, so that isn't saying much.

Obama used the forum to highlight the 34 violent deaths of African-American young people in the Chicago area this past school year. At 11 a.m. on Sunday, Obama will call the community to action against the violence during an appearance at the Vernon Park Church of God at 90th and Stony Island.

He would have a point if he could prove that someone from another race killed these kids. But, since they were most likely killed by someone in their own race, he proves himself to even less an intelligent man and more a race monger.

I get the same feeling; I hear a lot of younger (20-30 year-olds) people saying how “cool” Obama is. I think we’re going to be stuck with this overprivileged self-righteous snot-nosed punk for at least 4 years.

“Obama used the forum to highlight the 34 violent deaths of African-American young people in the Chicago area this past school year.”

Ask him who killed these 34 young people?

Gina Clayton, 24, a delegate from California who is on her way to Harvard Law School, illustrated the challenge.

"I have a lot of friends that are politically active who are definitely waiting to hear what is coming out of the candidates' mouths that relate to them. They are looking for solutions. We want to know what are they going to do about these problems because we have been here before," she said.

It is always fascinating why people like this think they need the government to take care of their problems.

Good grief...

A racist muzzie uses the race card... I’m shocked I tell you... ‘round up the usual suspects!

I guess this is as bad as blaming whitey for Tupac and Biggy Small’s co-assassinations... damn whitey!

Odds are, that Barack would have let the US South secede and the blacks remain enslaved.

Barack didn't want to free the Muslims who were suffering under Saddam.

Shiites in Iraq were radicalized and brutalized by two major events: the Baath crackdown on Shiite political activity in the late 1970s and 1980s, and the crushing of the 1991 uprising and subsequent persecution of and even genocide against Shiites in the South

[LibLieSlayer]

He is a racist empty suit with mob baggage and a past that will destroy his chances for even reelection to the Senate... and the beast holds the cards. Would YOU want to trade places with this POS?

To give Obama a little faint praise, at least he has a few other cards in his deck, weak and few they may be.

On the other hand, guys like Sharpton and Jesse Jackson seem to play with a deck that has 52 race cards.
