NBC News Blames Obama's Poor Debate On Race

Incredible excuses for Obama's debate failure! Now it is because he is a black man and could not fight back!

[Buckeye McFrog]

“Debate team was for geeky white kids in Catholic school. Black kids like Barack went out for basketball.”

Something like that??

[madison10]

Race? Why? Are they using Affirmative action as an excuse now? It was their idea. ‘Course their logic is always turned around to blame the problem they created. It’s the socialist way.

[RochesterNYconservative]

I am glad Obama did not try out for the bowling squad! He sucks at that sport, among other things.

This is probably going to be the new leftist battle cry through the coming debates and Obama’s loss in November. Come on, we all knew it would happen, just not exactly how. When all else is lost, cry racism. It must suck being them.

[The Sons of Liberty]

And because of the angry black man phenomenon

Half of Hussein's "followers" are due to "The Mandingo effect", so it cuts both ways, but those afflicted by this effect are apparently blissfully unaware that he is not only a black muslim, but a GAY Caballero Black muslim to boot!

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

The Media beclowns themselves again.

The sight of pasty white guys being offended on behalf of blacks is getting tiresome.

Awesome! If FOX said this the Dems would be up in arms screaming racism. Al and Jessee would be mobilizing.

[Graewoulf]

Really? John Sunnunu told Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC yesterday that it was because “Obama is LAZY and DETACHED.”

[GOPJ]

When I see the president, I don't see a black man. I see a president who has inherited an untenable position and turned it around to a great positive to where we are right now. He has brought it down to 8 percent unemployment without any help from the Republicans.

The very next hour, on MSNBC's Now with Alex Wagner, panelist Michael Eric Dyson similarly suggested that fear of being seen as an "angry black man" held Obama back from forcefully debating and possibly winning last night's contest.

"Obama has just been subject to the Fox News treatment of Angry Black Man, again," Dyson told his fellow panelists...

Dem PR firms have distributed 'talking points' to MSM shills...it's official - racism... And yeah, the ONLY thing liberals see is the color of a person's skin ...

[bert]

It is of course race.

Obama is president for the simple reason he is black. As an affirmative action black man he is not required nor capable of competing in a non jock or drug dealer world. His rapper skills are deficient so he is not charged with that talentless occupation.

Everything he has done or will do is predicated on his being Black. /s

Ding, ding, ding we have a thread winnah!

What??!! Since when is 8% an unemployment rate that you toss out to the public as a victory? And at what cost? Trillions of dollars and very little to show for it. And yet...he's bragging about it? The "Are-you-better-off-now" question begs to be asked...LOUDLY! This Republic is doomed if this clown is reelected.

[jjotto]

Of course it’s race!

Affirmative Action brings with it consequences: Poor performance by the Affirmative Action beneficiary, whether the Presidency, debating, teaching or medicine.

[GOJPN]

[MrB]

I think Sununu needs to “double down” on Mitchell with “lazy, SHIFTLESS, and detached”.

[GOJPN]

And I bet swimming too. If you listen to demwits reasoning, cuz everyone knows,,,,,

[I still care]

I thought it was the altitude. Then it was Jim Lehrer (that racist!), then John Kerry, and now it’s his color!

Couldn’t be that he thought he’d coast and wasn’t prepared.

Whatever it is, he can debate - if he even mentally shows up, the MSM will be “thrilled” by his gravitas and intelligence, his nimbleness and inspiration. And declare him the winner.

I would pay heed to the words the Palin, who is smart and aware - she says beware the Chicago way - if O/B can’t win legitimately, look for dirty tricks. They are already trashing the heck out of our money supply to bring up the stock market.

It is the same thing again and again. When they run our of ideas they return to crying racism.
