I loved Al Gore, Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton - and all because they were white.

Yep, NPR’s one smart bunch.

Liberals are racists so they think everyone else is motivated by race too.

Dear NPR, I feel 0’s white half is just as incompetent as his black half.

Funny, NPR cannot understand why conservatives don’t like Obama, so they blame race. Why do I dislike Hillary? Sexist? Why do I dislike Harry Reid? Ageist? I hate the direction these people are taking the Country.

I agree with everybody's response. Remember how bigoted the liberal's were when Justice Clarence Thomas was getting nominated to the supreme court? I couldn't believe the name calling. So now they have a semi-black leader and they are accusing us of the same thing, while in actuality we don't care for his socialist agenda that is driving this country into a third world bankrupt country. Give us a black leader who has good common sense, he would have my vote.

It is not the color of the Current Occupant’s skin that is the driving force behind this sort of reactionary response. It has to do with how THIN his skin is.

NPR and the Current Occupant continue to find offense where none exists.

Now the only colors exhibited by The Won are Red (for his Marxist tendencies) and Yellow (for his cowardice in international confrontations).

Just because you liberals hate blacks doesn’t mean the rest of us do.

Trust me it’s not his skin color I despise, It’s HIM and the lack of character and integrity thereof...

Funny, during Bush's two terms with all those Black liberals calling for his impeachment at the least and his assassination at the worst, no one ever accused them of hating him because hating him or disrespecting him because of his color but with Zero it's always about race.

The code Switch forum where this is posted on NPR has censored hundreds of posters and won’t let many people post replies to this veil, ugly article.

More proof that the Left only approves of free speech when they agree with what is said.

It's obvious they don't care anymore if their hypocrisy shows or not. They have the confidence to believe they can do so. What does this say about American society?

"There's a perception that Obama's major achievement is a transfer from middle-income white people to low-income minorities," he says.

No! Thats wild.

His status as the nation's first African-American president exacerbates the concerns of those who feel the country is changing rapidly in ways that are not always comfortable.

Even black voters hate how he is advancing the gay agenda when he said that he was personally opposed to same sex marriage in 2008.

We’re all responding to the accusation instead of going on the offensive.

They know it’s not about race, it’s about policy.
And we all know that they just use the race issue to silence dissent because

WE’RE DECENT PEOPLE (and will react to the accusation),
AND THEY’RE NOT (so they accuse us of vile things).

It’s not part of my ‘mix’.

I oppose him because:

He is a ‘progressive’
He is a democrat
He is a liar (this is strongly implied by the first two reasons but is definitely the case with Mr. Obama)
He is a thief (also strongly implied by the first two reasons and also definitely the case with Mr. Obama)
He hates me because of the color of my skin
He hates the version of America that I love

The left and democrats only know how to function in "Projection Mode".

We will see real, visceral racism (from the "tolerant" left, of course) when someone like Ben Carson or Allen West is elected. The left will come completely unglued when that happens.

One day someone in the media will examine the discriminatory predispositions of a president who would appoint someone as overtly racist as Eric Holder as their AG.

Obama has had to put up with no white president has endured, including a protester waving a outside the White House gates last fall and a South Carolina congressman, Republican Joe Wilson, yelling at him during a 2009 address to Congress.

Joe Wilson was correct. Obama DID lie and Obama was LYING in his speech when he said (at that moment) that his critics were liars.

F the libtards at NPR who hold the president at a different standard. What happened to the President (Bush) lied, people died meme?

F a bunch of commie progressives with their he-she panties in a bunch.
