It seems the more Barack Obama tries to explain the peculiar statement he made Tuesday concerning his white grandmother's "fear of black men who passed by her on the street," the more he's assuring attention regarding the matter.
"The point I was making was not that my grandmother harbors any racial animosity...But she is a typical white person. If she sees somebody on the street that she doesn't know . . .inbred...reaction in her that doesn't go away and it comes out in the wrong way."

It was unlikely that Obama could win the nomination outright (without assistance of the superdelegates)...However he has made it a great deal easier for them to pick Hillary over him.
I guess Jesse Jackson has a good bit of white blood, eh?
“Not a peep of it on NBC nightly news.”
Not a peep about it on CNN, either.
I'm white as a sheet and i used to get asked that all the time in high school. Know why? Because like Obama, I'm TALL.
Punk goes around with a chip on his shoulder for thirty years and calls me a racist? I don't think so!
Isn’t it ironic that a few weeks ago everybody was bashing Bubba (and rightly so) for introducing racial divisions into the campaign.
Fred and Mort are so ridiculous lately...perhaps it’s time they retire.
what the heck is a “typical white person”. So deeper he goes - now Obama proves HE is a racist!
“But she is a typical white person. If she sees somebody on the street that she doesn’t know . . .inbred...reaction in her that doesn’t go away and it comes out in the wrong way.”
This guy is racist. I’m black and if I see someone I dont know on the street I get worried. And Obama can’t tell me he wouldn’t get scared if he was walking down the street and a black guy with dreads 6’0” tall, baggy pants, and a gangsta walk passed him by!!!! He’d pee in his pants.
Obama’s prospects of Nov. victory have been significantly diminished by his poor response to revelations about his loony racist “spiritual mentor”
p.s. Interesting that he’s much more dangerous to his poor innocent grandma than he is to any of America’s enemies.
This makes me want to sing—I wrote a little ditty this afternoon. Hope you all like it:
“Obama got run over by his Grandma.
He’s a hateful fool who had to run his mouth.
Now his useful idiots might all still love him,
but all of his poll numbers are goin’ south.
Obama thinks America is awful-
he says that life here’s so unfair.
And grandma’s rotten ‘cause she raised him
to be a lousy Ivy League-schooled millionaire.
He hates Grandma ‘cause she’s fearful.
He deplores the way her racial views were shaped.
Many thousands of whites could give him an earful—
The ones who blacks have murdered, robbed, and raped.
Ohhhhh.....
Obama got run over by his Grandma.
Been getting his big ears boxed ever since.
Now you may say there’s no such thing as karma,
But as for me and Grandma, we’re convinced.”
While what you’ve said has some merit, words mean specific things and the word ‘racist’ has been thrown around so much in the PC climate that it no longer seems to mean what the dictionary reads. I’m rather fond of using the correct words to describe someone or something. Insulting someone is not necessarily a racist action.
“He may have meant Innate fear but innate was not in his superior vocabulary.”
Guess all those massive student loans he and poor Michelle just paid off for that Ivy League education weren’t worth it.
...and remember that the story as Obama himself related it in his first book was not one of simply “seeing” a black man, it was of a large very aggressive panhandler demanding money, obstructing her way, and not leaving her alone. Almost anyone would be intimidated by such behavior, no matter what the race(s) involved. Even if you feel physically able to take on the guy you still don’t want to get into a brawl at a bus stop, and a small woman like Obama’s grandma would be physically intimidated by almost any size of aggressive male.
So, did Wright ever read the Third Commandment which says “Thou shall not take the name of God in vain,” before he made his “GD America,” statement ?
And has Obama happened to read Commandment Four – “Honor Thy Father and Mother,” or doesn’t he believe his grandparents, who raised him, are included in that Commandment?
And what about Commandment Seven, Obama – “Thou shall not commit adultery,” doesn’t that apply to sexual relations with anyone outside the marriage – including men in a cab?
Oh, and there is always the Rezko situation…and your financial dealings with him…perhaps infringing on Commandment Eight – “Thou shall not steal.”
For a man and his mentor who profess to be religious – it seems between the two of you there is a lot of breaking of the Ten Commandments. Which ones are next? Is breaking all the Commandments typical of what they teach in Wright’s church?
Oh, this allegation wouldn’t have been brought up by all you white racists if Barry hadn’t listened to Wright’s sermons for 20 years. ;’)
