"Have you seen these crazy people, largely white, around the country, mad because the President is going to give an education speech?..." "These people are nuts. "They are absolutely crazy." "They are attacking the President." "No one got upset when George W. Bush read a book to some schoolchildren-- upside down!"

Of course the opposition to Obama is largely white. 97% of black voters voted for Obama, so what do you expect. I agree we are divided along racial lines. Yes. I concur.

Gee, is he saying that intelligence is “largely” a white only characteristic?

That’s racist!

He keeps saying how crazy we are. How nuts we are. It’s funny, because I just don’t understand socialists- I don’t understand Obama voters. I honestly think they’re a little crazy. So here we are calling each other crazy. We’re that far apart. The divide has nothing to do with color, it’s a divide of thought, ethics, morality- and she is quite the divide.

And he’s too stupid to know that even Snopes has confirmed the book photo was photoshopped.

Well, considering the majority of the country is ‘white’ is stands to reason that the majority of complaints would be from whites.

CNN drank the Obama Kool Aid a long time ago so this is just more spewing.

NO! We are not opposed to a black president giving a speech to our children because he is black! We are opposed to him holding our children as a captive audience with a particular message to them that we, as their parents are unable to comment on or filter WHILE they watch it in case there is any information in the speech that we do NOT agree with. Furthermore, having the DOE make a LESSON plan to go along with it to make SURE and certain the message is gotten.

Add to that the man giving the speech, the man who is supposed to inspire the youth to do better, work harder etc, by his own admission: Skipped much of the last 2 years of high school to drink and use drugs, play basketball, and sealed ALL of his school records from elementary school to graduating college is going to be no more than a ‘do as I say, not as I do” example at best, or at worst, is going to encourage even WORSE behavior in students today who look at these facts about Obamas school career and think, if he can be president after skipping school, using drugs and alcohol, and generally slacking off, then WHY SHOULD I WORK HARD????

Of course he knows it was photoshopped, he has to get his Bush bash in or he’s not being a good lib reporter.

Well of course, Idiot. You all are so in the pants pocket for this clown he can’t do anything wrong.

So just keep on following your Pied Piper. And then when’s he’s all said and gone, be sure to ask why your standard of living and culture is further in the tank.

Did YOU contact CNN on their dereliction of duty in reporting on Van Jones in a factual manner? Did YOU contact CNN and let them know you will not stand for the racist comments by Roland Martin, either?

But there was quite an uproar when the other President Bush addressed students via TV - and that really was an education pep talk, if you will. No assignments for the kids on how to serve the president. Of course, as usual, facts can’t get in the way of democrat thinking.

Hey, I'll go way out on a limb and say that they're probably largely Conservative, too.

Roland Martin just another typical LibTard with pig dookey for brains falls back on the typical Liberal attack lie, when they can’t win on facts. (which is most of the time)

Accuses anyone who they disagree with of being a “racist”. and in so doing, show their own racist hatred and bigotry.

Roland Martin is just another shitty Liberal Step-and fetch-it, for the DemoKlan.

Remember the Senator who recently compared anti DeathCare protestors to the Klansmen “running around” back when the Civil Rights bill was before Congress? (The bill that never would have passed without Republican support)

How he conveiniently forgets to mention that all those Hooded friends of his, were DEMOCRATS.

“CNN’s Roland Martin Says Opposition to Obama’s School Speech Is ‘Largely White’”

I know it will come as a shock to racist fools like Martin, but most of the US Citizenry is still WHITE.
