So as the summer winds down, I'm sure we've all heard of the "Barack Obama's not a citizen unless you show us proof, which we will not believe because proof has already been shown" fringe of Americans affectionately called birthers as opposed to deathers and tax partiers.
Fringe extremism is totally the new bipartisan, didn't you hear? Well, this week some birthers have reached a new low. In some of the comments on the Web site Free Republic, some birthers came up with an ingenious new way to decide whether our already democratically-elected president is a citizen. Let's just take a gander at his penis. Yes, his penis! If he's circumcised, he's a citizen. If he's not cut, he's a crazy foreigner. Oh the logic, or illogic if you will.
This is ridiculous and slightly creepy. Yes, we get it. Obama is an attractive male. Sometimes you get these feelings you can't define, but this is not the way to act on them. There is still something to be said for race and how we oversexualize black men.
Contrary to popular belief I'm looking at you New York Times Obama did not destroy racism, nor is he some superhuman: the first "raceless" being. Instead of using trite terms, such as "post-racial America," we should realize we are living in a post-modern racial structure. Racism is subverted and disguised most of the time, but ever-present. One way to examine this is the way our first black president is treated. I am going to put this out there: I have never seen a dildo of Bill Clinton, yet an Obama one is produced.
Why is America more comfortable reducing Obama, a black male, to his physical parts for pleasure or examination, than it ever was with previous presidents? Historically, since the inception of this country and the slave system, there has always been a resistance and fear of black male sexuality. Like most phobias that are created in the mind of their believers, this phobia was coupled with an obsession with the sexual proclivities of black men.
Speaking of black men with such animalistic language allowed white people to dehumanize them, and once they were dehumanized, there was more of a moral defense for slavery. A man ruled by passions, so the argument went, needed the guiding hand of a white man for not only white people's protection, but for the black man's own protection. Like in many other instances, our history is imbedded in the consciousness of all of us whether we deliberately rely upon it, or unwillingly bring it out it lurks right beneath the surface.
And here is Obama at the crossroads, the highest ranking person of any color in America and still dealing with this bull(****). I mean the logic doesn't even make sense; circumcision has never been required in American medical establishments and is not a defining characteristic for male "Americaness," if you will. And yes, I know this is what I get for spending my time reading the Free Republic. I should have stepped away after the Sasha Obama twisted hair debacle can someone define American hair for me? but these are the sacrifices I make for my column, and because I enjoy the whack jobs on the Internet a little too much.
Say what???!
You forgot the lobes BABY!
Obamabot learn from Obama, create strawman arguments then denounce it. Ya know, my opponents may think throwing acids on a raped victim is fine, but not me, I’m a moderate, I’m against such practice
She’s got all wee-wee’d up!
Whoever filled this young woman’s head with this racism and hatred has done the most damage to her by far. And to many, many like her. Far more harm than any skinhead or KKK member could ever hope to inflict.
The saddest thing is that this student will graduate and actually think she has gained an education.
“Speaking of black men with such animalistic language allowed white people to dehumanize them, and once they were dehumanized, there was more of a moral defense for slavery....”

I guess the writer did not do his research and forgot to mention that MUSLIMS enslaved blacks more than all groups combined. Also, the WHITE Christian male DIED to “free” or end slavery.....the WHITE Christian DIED...what else do these liberal idiots want?
Also, almost 1,000 blacks in Charleston, SC had slaves....yes, blacks had slaves!
One last point, over 95% of “slaves” in the USA were treated like family: given their own house, join in festivities and activities, etc. However, over 90% of blacks enslaved by Muslims were wither killed or tortured...where is the outcry?
BTW, the writer seems to forget that Jews and Christians are and were the MOST persecuted/enslaved group in all history!!!!
Beware of women with three names.
I have a newsflash for CHA TOYYA - I don’t wanna see Bambi’s wee wee. Never have, never will. Same for Michelle’s -lol. OMG I feel so racist!

You can’t help it, it was given to you; deep down,
you’re angry, but you need to project it else-where.
So you scan the internet looking for whites that you can hate.
You can change the name, ya know.

Oh fer crying out loud, we see “it” every day...he is a d**khead!
The left just keeps getting loonier and loonier.
Classically tiresome academically-certified “deepthink”
Leftist crap. OH, YEAH, let’s resusitate all the cliches
about white male fears over black potency, which if anything , in the light of 20th-21st century realities , is a BLACK, and not a WHITE fantasy-fear, as if it was conjured out of nothing but the desire to offset the facts of the missing black father, the economically marginalized black male, father or not, and a host of other social (and hence
“racial”) problems we seem to never tire to repeat endlessly without ever illuminating them. What a big YAWN.
And by the way, who ever called to see if Zero was circumcised?
And who thinks, for God sakes, he’s “attractive”????
Where are ChaToyya’s FR links?
No! He is the magic negro, he is!!
I wish these journo-wanna be’s like Chew Toy would step up and name names. Provide a link to the penis gandering thread.
I wish we here at Free Republic could ascertain if indeed a Freeper actually suggested we gander at the presidential staff.
I don’t know... I’d either buy that Freepr a beer. Or zot him.
It’s all just too dang funny!!!
Many are now sayimng the REAL reason the Media Monolith is not pursuing the many questions surrounding Hussein Obama’s uncertified birth is because they are afraid of Black Race Riots is he is removed from office! What do you think of that theory?
This just irritates the crap out of me, for one simple reason. I live in the burbs of St. Louis and am part of a minor league football club and I don’t think I have ever run into one of these types of people - I have to use this as an example only becuase the majority of our player are black. Everyone on this team and other area teams are the most wonderful and fun folks that I have had the pleasure to be associated with - players and wives/girlfriends and their kids. I hate this race baiting crap that comes out of the big cities, yet they think that we are supposed to look up to them as “guiding lights”. Perhaps they should be looking the heartland of America so they know how to act.
Add me to the list!
Cha-Cha, baby, cite your source! Thread, post # etc.
(Yeah....I thought so!)
