Horrible! Obama Blames Racism For His Lower Approval Ratings
Gateway Pundit ^ | January 19, 2014 | Jim Hoft

Obama blamed his sinking popularity on racism in his latest interview with the >New Yorker.

It couldn’t possibly be his failed economic policies, the fact that he lied to Americans for years about Obamacare or his destructive foreign policy. No, it’s racism. Bloomberg reported:

President Barack Obama said that racial tensions may have softened his popularity among white voters within the last two years, according to a story posted on the New Yorker magazine’s website today.

“There’s no doubt that there’s some folks who just really dislike me because they don’t like the idea of a black president,” Obama said in the article by David Remnick, appearing in the magazine’s Jan. 27 edition.

“Now, the flip side of it is there are some black folks and maybe some white folks who really like me and give me the benefit of the doubt precisely because I’m a black president,” Obama said in his most direct comments on how race has affected his political standing since he’s been in office.

As they say, “the natives are getting restless”. And in this case we are the natives and we are scaring the shiite out of them cause they know we are right and they know we are coming.

This is cool. Someone should photoshop it. His race card should look worn and tattered with scotch tape all over it.

Yeah, h comes from a long line of “red diaper doper babies” on his Mom’s (White) side which isn’t really different from his Dad’s post-colonial African side. To use a Soviet term, they are “fellow travellers.”

Crying racism is usually the last refuge of a scoundrel.

Racism is indeed black, I mean, back. President Obama has done more to bring back use of the ‘n’ word than anyone in recent history.

And when he uses it, it has to be punched into the system manually, the magnetic stripe doesn't work anymore. B-)

I found it on a quick and dirt Google search. It is quite relevant though.

" there are some black folks and maybe some white folks who really like me and give me the benefit of the doubt precisely because I’m a black president"

Either way--it's racism.

If it wasn’t for the media constantly saying “If you don’t vote for Obama your a racist” Obama would NEVER have won, because he sure as hell had no experience, and the terrorist associations alone should have disqualified him

3) Everybody and everything else.

I would have to agree with his assessment: his racism IS responsible for his low ratings - at least partially.

Agreed. My boss at one of my jobs said that Obama has taken race relations on many levels back to 1970 if not further. To me, the "N-Word," despite its origins, is more of a though process and mentality than race. I've seen plenty of "N-Words" of all colors and stripes, usually they are the first to blame others or other things than themselves and want freebies because of it.

Mad narcissism! Who else in history do we know that was a mad narcissist? Adolph. Benito, Mao, Pol Pot, Fidel, et al. Never ends well.

This socialist D!ck wouldn’t have been President if a whole lot of stupid white people hadn’t voted for this sorry Affirmative Action, foreign student, ass. TWICE!

Yep, I told my hubby that if it had been a white guy, with the track record BO had after his first term, he would have been a one-term president (see, Jimmy Carter).

The fact that the citizens of this great country voted for him a second time really bothers me. It means that political correctness has taken such a hold on us that people can no longer honestly judge a person by their performance, and everything is coming down to politically correct ideas. His bi-raciality is more important than his obvious incompetence. And, when you have a secret ballot, so that you are the one who knows how you vote; yet, you still vote for incompetence -- we are in worse shape than I had previously thought.
