OCALA, Fla. -- The owners of an Ocala business are accused of taking a racist swipe at president-elect Barack Obama. The NAACP of Florida calls the message on the company's marquee "horrific" and "insensitive."

"From The Ghetto To the White House! What Next? A Book Or A Movie??"

They eventually sent out an African American employee who said his boss is no racist. "Me being a black guy, a black guy can be president, a black guy can put a thing up on a sign, he can do whatever he wants," the man said....It's bad for business, maybe, but as the employee said, it's a free country. "If ya'll don't like how it is, get your own sign and put it up," he said.

I hate to tell the guy, but Obama rose not from the ghetto, but from the most exclusive prep school in Hawaii.

If Obama is from a ghetto..it is a pretty fancy one in Chicago’s south side.
Now he and that giant of a wife of his will thunder around in the WH with the granny and two little girls and some kind of mutt...and all the anti American pals of their past. What a disgrace.

Hee,Hee,Hee,Hee Hee... just keep tweeking them....

[Boiling Pots]

This is stupid.

Obama has not had the “typical black experience” in this country. He was raised by whites who didn’t live in ghetto’s.

I'm a freelance liberal baiter myself so I do the same thing. I once made a joke where I wondered if he is going to put spinners, lowriders, a subwoofer, a coffee can muffer and a huge icebox for 40's in the back seat of the Presidential Limo, the ultimate "ghetto sled," you should have seen the libs squeal. >B-D

Come to think of it, I hate those coffee can mufflers, they make so much noise. I was stopped once back in 1984 because my muffler was making too much noise, yet these guys don't get caught.

They are referring to Soros.

True, but I just love to watch the libs get into a tizzy.

[pissant]

Indeed!

The official name is fart-pipe.

I read somewhere that his Grandmother was the vice president of a bank in Hawaii, expensive ghetto. ;-)

[PizzaDriver]

Here is my own “insensitive question”...
Before the Obamas bought their current Chicago Mansion; were they Renters, or Owners?

[al baby]

He won’t last long I swear to god he will go loony tunes and be led out of the White house in a straight jacket

[Nowhere Man]

Thanks. Just think, in 1984, that would have been illegal.

[al baby]

Squatters?

[Force of Truth]

White people live in the ghetto too. And this guy was probably just referring to Obama's white half anyway, in order to avoid a charge of racism of course.

[The Worthless Miracle]

“Horrific”? They have to be kidding. These race hustlers are insane.
