I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community. I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother a woman who helped raise me, a woman who sacrificed again and again for me, a woman who loves me as much as she loves anything in this world, but a woman who once confessed her fear of black men who passed by her on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic stereotypes that made me cringe. So he compares wRIGHT TO A WOMAN not in the public eye, who has caused no problems for anyone??? What a pig.

Oh I see I read about his "racist" grandmother "confessing" she feared black men on the street, so now it's ok to be a racist black because his white grandmother said something? This business about his grandmother "confessing" fearing black men on the street is a very old and divisive trick. You have blacks committing crime disproportionately, you have inner cities teeming with crime, there is a serious debate whether his old grandmother is "racist" or just responding to the news.
I see this as turning the tables in an effort to make all whites feel racist and guilty. Maybe Obama happens to be surrounded by racists. I want to know, did his grandmother also support the Soviet Union, or Libya? Cuba? Did she rail against the atomic bombings of Japan? Does Obama or Rev Wright have any idea how Imperial Japan would have treated blacks?

He is a pig. She wasn’t spouting it from the rooftops. It was a private conversation between him and his grandmother. It should have remained private. To save himself and justify what his pastor has said, he has tarnished a woman’s reputation that took care of him. Give us a frickin’ break Barack. You’ve shown us what you’re made of and it wasn’t caused by your white grandmama.
