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.

It can’t possibly be due to the fact that increasing numbers of citizens are realizing that Obama is a serial lying, incompetent commie moron whose wife is singlehandedly draining the national treasury for her own amusement.

A Black is not elected homecoming queen — racism
A Black is fired as coach of a losing team — racism
A Black doesn’t score well on a test — racism
A Black is caught embezzling — racism
and on, and on, and on, and on.........................

I don't dislike him because he's black and president, I hate his guts because he's a lying, race-baiting, Marxist traitor!

Crying racism is usually the last refuge of a scoundrel.

And 0bama has now proved himself to be as much of a scoundrel as Al Sharpton.

This is so weak. He got elected and re-elected, I don’t think white people all of a sudden said, oh wait, I hate him because he’s black.

In fact, I don’t think there is ONE SINGLE PERSON in this entire country who has changed their mind about Obama because of his race.

Of course, some love him and some hate him because of his race. More of the former than the latter, I’d venture.

But in terms of changing one’s view about him, it’s not because of his race. It may be because many have realized he was lying to them for the last 5 years, that might have done it.

He’s right. If Obama wasn’t such a bigoted racist he would be more popular
