Not many Republicans would get away with that remark.

This is extremely inflammatory.....”back of the bus” was not funny - we were told....now Obama uses it in jest?

When is a journalist going to call him out on this? If a white person said this, they would get fired, castigated, and all the rest.

What a vile pos OWeBama is. And he isn’t “demeaning Replublicans”, he’s slandering them. He has done NOTHING BUT demean the office of the presidency since the day after being elected (remember, according to the media he started governing/ruling the day after the November 2008 election).

Telling Republicans to “sit at the back of the bus” is his way of being bipartisan and reaching across the isle. What a fraud OWEBamaa is. OWeBama will go down as the worst president in our country’s long history.

Where is the MSM this morning? Crickets....
How about the “punish your enemies” comment spoken to the Latinos. More crickets.
I’m beginning to feel like a prisoner in my own country.

"They can come for the ride, but they gotta sit in back."

Hmmm .....???? Okay. Thought about it and I don't have a problem with that remark.

Because when I was a teen and lived in Chicago I always sat at the back of the bus if I could. First of all you can see whose comin' at ya (Priority #1). Secondly, it was easier getting out the back door at your stop. And lastly, you can be 'mischievous' if so desired. Not that I ever was (honest injun).

Even today, if I have to take the Metra Train to Downtown Chicago I always get in a Car near the end of the train. And I sit near the back of that car. Old habits die hard I guess.

Obama pretty much insulted Rosa Parks and the rest of the civil rights movement.

Nov. 2011, America is going to throw the driver out of the car.

I’ve got news for subzero. I’m not riding his Karl Marx Express. I’m riding the Tea Party freedom train and I’m riding up front.

This is a very telling remark - along with others he has made in recent weeks. He’s trying to light a fire. But once it is lit he might not be able to control it. The President is the President of the entire nation, not just the president of his party. I hope the republican leadership, should they take the House (and Senate?!) remember these quotes and understand the esteem in which they are held by the President. Let’s not ‘reach across the aisle’ for racists and half-presidents.

What a stupid and racist comment for a President to make. What an idiot if he thinks elected officials should be told to shut up and not be allowed to represent the people.

What until that black man has to sit in the back of the bus once the Rpeublicans take control of the House and maybe even the Senate.

Watch in horror or amusement. For me, its amusement.
