Surely Obama did not mean to inject race

You know, he doesn’t look like all those other presidents on those dollar bills.

Yep, no doubt about that...

Some enterprising cartoonist should have Obama prepping a syringe with it's content labeld as Race and his rubber band strapped arm with bulging veins labeled as The Election.

Injecting race, indeed.

“He’s not patriotic enough. He’s got a funny name. You know, he doesn’t look like all those other presidents on those dollar bills.”

The sleight of hand is to make the first seem equivalent to the other two.

That takes the first off the table, it becomes something you can't say. But thats ok, I'll say it anyway.

He's not patriotic enough. He isn't. It would be laughable to pretend that he was.

The whole race question has two roots. First, thats who Dems are. They are the party of the race-obsessed. They can't conceive that anyone isn't; they can't imagine that there is anyone out there who isn't as race-minded and race-obsessed as they are. And, second, its their smoke-screen to keep anyone from looking at the obvious. He isn't qualified, he isn't competent, he hasn't paid his dues, and no, he isn't patriotic enough.

Actually they are not race obsessed. They are dependent on racial divide and anger. Without a 85% black vote for the Democrat party they would cease to exist. The very survival of the Democrat party is totally dependent on maintaining the racial divide in this country and righting wrongs from 150 years ago. That bill due was paid in full by the blood of the Union and Confederate Soldiers during the Civil War. The democrat party is the party of hate and racial division. They depend on it for survival.

I do not fear Obama's color. I fear his socialism and Marxist friends. I have often wondered how a relatively new politician and inexperienced at that could rocket to the top of the Democrat Party. His primary campaign was run with clockwork precision with few errors. His war chest was repeatedly filled from "Internet donations." A politician as inexperienced as Obama could never put together such an operation and financing so quickly and professionally. My burning question is who are the men behind Obama and who is the money behind Obama. I do not know who they are, but I do fear them.

Thank you.

Very good question. Worth repeating.

Correct, and well stated. You are articulate and probably clean, too.
But, Obama cannot genuinely take any of this off the table.
Obama is not patriotic enough. He knows it, and so do most Americans.
Barak Hussein Obama is, without doubt, a funny name, though he is humorless and thin-skinned. He is to me anyway, and I bet he is to most Americans.
With regard to “presidents on those dollar bills”: One would think that a degree from Harvard Law School would impart some degree of verbal precision in this community organizing man of faith who wants to make nice and negotiate, unconditionally, with America’s blood enemies. But the word “currency” is not in his vocabulary. To wit: Last I checked, only one president was on the dollar bill.
Let’s tell Michelle and Barak who that president is.
George Washington is revered by most Americans. Do you think Obama ever even thinks of George Washington and his refusal to become a king of our new country? I wish it would be correct to say that most Americans occasionally ponder that selfless patriotic act.
Oh, I know what Obama meant. It’s clear. He meant “I’m black.”
He has two justifications for his candidacy: “I’m black, and Europeans love me.” That makes the msm tingle.
But, an appeal based solely upon race and upon far, far, left socialist dogma does not appeal to most Americans. Not yet anyway.

He was NOT referring to race; he was admitting that he is from outer space.

Ferengi, to be specific.

That boy's got LOBES!

I thought the “dollar bill Presidents” was a stupid statement to begin with. The most recent President in history to even appear on a dollar bill is Woodrow Wilson.

What amazes me is that this came from Chuck Green, a fairly well known liberal columnist in Colorado.

This, to me, is terrifying. I hope this question gets answered before it's too late. Lord, have mercy on us.
