Guess which card Obama pulled out of the deck today?

With both Rasmussen and Gallup showing Barack Obama moving backwards even before the Republican Convention dropped its balloons on Andrea Mitchell, one can excuse the Democratic nominee for hearing footsteps. How desperate has he gotten? Looks like he’s playing the race card once again:

“I know that I’m not your typical presidential candidate,” Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., told executives and employees of the Schott glass company Friday afternoon, “and I just want to be honest with you. I know that.”

“And I know that the temptation is to say, ‘You know what? …The guy hasn’t been there that long in Washington.,’ You know, ‘he’s got funny name,’ You know, ‘we’re not sure about him,’” Obama continued. “And that’s what the Republicans, when they say, ‘This isn’t about issues, it’s about personalities,’ what they’re really saying is, ‘We’re going to try to scare people about Barack. So we’re going to say that you know, maybe he’s got Muslim connections or we’re going to say that, you know, he hangs out with radicals or he’s not patriotic.’

“The idea that community organizing is not relevant to the presidency, he said, just shows why Republicans ‘are out of touch and don’t get it.’”

Out of touch with whom? Socialist activists? Regular people have no idea what a community organizer does.

On another point, what is wrong with Obama’s brain? It reminds me of Milli Vanilli’s infamous tape-malfunction:

“Out of touch, doesn’t get it, out of touch, doesn’t get it, out of touch, doesn’t get it...”

“Hope change, change hope, hope change, change hope”

“Dilomacy diplomacy diplomacy diplomacy”

“...These people just don’t get it.”

It’s interesting. LW blogs call Palin a “token” to get votes. Excuse me? What is Obama again?

Playing the race card is what affirmative action graduates with no measurable and discernable accomplishments do. I fired two of them.

Geez, those “statements” are very Presidential. sarcasm/

Obama is starting to sound like a real cry-baby. I don't need someone like that as my President.

What happened to the issues BO?

Any Republicans here say that? I know I never did. Never even heard it.

Looks like he’s playing the race card once again:

-———————————————————>

Did Obama forget he is half white?

That his white Grandmother and Grandfather raised him, paid for his education?

Evidently Obama doesn’t know who he is!

If enough people finally stop caring that they will be called racist for pointing out the emperor’s lack of clothes or in this case the clothing’s lack of content they will stop using the word like garlic on a vampire.

God knows our hearts and that’s all that should matter.

thought we were supposed to be a colour blind country.
so why do liberals and Obama like to point out that they have some black around or in them.

Fed up of hearing about diversity etc

Obama has some black in him some white and mostly arab so now can we get rid of affirmative action

two people one man and one woman one black one a bit they have been to ivy league schools, made a shed load of money and now maybe arrrrggh I have to type this maybe in the white house

so why have the racist policy against whites Mr Obama and your angry bitter racist wife

" Evidently Obama doesn’t know who he is!

That's because he isn't anybody. He's a cypher, a succubus - the Obama is whomever you want him to be.

He is the One!
