Obama: GOP Trying to Paint Me & Michelle as 'Too Black'
TheHill.com ^ | June 12th, 2008 | Andy Barr

Barack Obama said Thursday at a fundraiser in Chicago that the GOP is trying to make him and his wife Michelle appear "scary" and "too black."

"They’re going to try to make me into a scary guy. They’re even trying to make Michelle into a scary person. Right?" Obama said at an event in the Hyde Park area, according to CNN.

Obama said Republicans were trying to start a drumbeat questioning Obama's patriotism and whether he is "too black."

"I don’t know, before I wasn’t black enough," Obama said. The Illinois senator then suggested Republicans might say, "'now he might be too black.'"

Too black? No, too Red!

(I would have put up a Chinese flag, but they're too capitalist for the Obamanation.)

As for black, if Dr. Sowell were to run for president I would take a vacation from my job to help him get elected - something I wouldn't do for any of the white Republicans I've seen recently.

Too black? No such thing, and wouldn’t care.

Too Marxist? Too incompetent? Yep, I’m on board with that!

Cluelessness isn’t a racial issue.

Barry, if we Republicans were trying to paint you as “too black” we wouldn’t be making so many arugula jokes.

Why dont you kwitcherbitchin already? Or is this how you appeal to the metrosexual vote?

O’ does get it. Race has everything to do with it, when you are a victim of the white nation. This RACE CARD is being played by LIBERALS 24x7.

Enjoy it as it is shoved right down your throat, by this “historic” figure. God Bless AmeriKa.

You're right...he doesn't understand "Scarey"...When I can't eat what I want, drive an SUV and have to turn my heat down because he says so....That's scarey...

Mr. Obama: "It's the socialism stupid".

Barry, listen, you could be black or purple or green. But you ARE scary, and that’s where I draw the line. Marxism is scary, nincompoop thinking is scary, too. So’s your pastor.

Woe unto me “I Be Obamatized”.

The problem is not whether or not Michelle is educated with book learning knowledge but whether or not she has the common sense to use that education for the good of mankind.

See they’re trying to start false rumors again.

Taking their talking points from Amanutjob?
Antagonize, lie, start rumors and dismiss them before they become big.

Hey Barry - straight up from New York - holler: you and the angry bruja are not disliked because you are black, don’t play that game. You and the angry bruja are disliked for the policies that you support and represent, has nothing to do with your color. I am half white like you are, but I am not ashamed of the White half of me and neither should you be. Brace your other half, represent, be real and proud of both./Just Asking - seoul62........

I don't care what color the man is, his politics are too liberal. He is attempting to make anything we say about him, about race. The man is obsessed with the color of his own skin.
