.... Obama says he's a black man who has been mistaken for the valet.

Obama tells People magazine that every black professional male his age has had someone hand over their keys while waiting outside a restaurant. That happened to him, he said.

Oh, B.S.! Unless Obama was hanging around the front of a restaurant in a red vest, no one is going to walk up and hand him the keys to their car. What is it with Leftists (e.g. Lena Dunham) that they have a compulsion to fabricate past “events” to fit current grievances?

I was reading the article on yahoo and did not find one comment that had an ounce of sympathy for these lying clowns. Not one. The sheeple are finally waking up.

For the last couple of years he’s been mistaken for a doormat. Not sure if that’s a step up or down.

Who among us hasn’t been mistaken for someone else? How relevant is this non-event?

Many years ago,when. I was staying at a. London hotel. I asked a Naval officer to get me a cab. Well...... He looked like the guy who did that, wore the same kind of uniform. It could happen. 😛

I believe it. He probably showed up in golf attire at a coat and tie restaurant, and was lounging outside smoking a cigarette while some gopher was finding a jacket.

Either that, or he was dining somewhere that had never had a black customer before. Probably in France.

“So what? I used to go shopping after work wearing the suit and tie that I wear to work. I was often mistaken for a store clerk.”

I am a director at a chemical company. Our every-day wear is khakis and a collared shirt, usually a logo shirt of our company as we get them frequently. I don’t know how many times someone in a store has asked me about pricing or availability. I’m a middle-aged white guy (gasp, can I say that??), they don’t ask me because of what I am, they just see khakis and a logo shirt, that’s all...

When I first got out of school, I worked at a specialty chemical company in a not very nice area of Baltimore. I was frequently targeted for verbal racial attacks as I was white as I drove to and from work - I’ve been called honky, cracker, usually followed with other suggestions of removing myself from the area, fornicating with myself, as well as suggestions that I was a white mother fornicator...that was my daily live for 10 years...and yet, no one ever mentions that racism is colorblind...

Because all Valets are tall and black? What a race baiter.

Would he rather be mistaken for a criminal?

Mistaken for?

Maybe this happened when he was a choom-puffing teenager, perhaps also a hustler, in Hawaii. He would have looked like a valet.

More likely, though, it’s just the lie of the day. This guy will say whatever bolsters the point he’s trying to make, any time, any way.

Obama gets challenged by a D.C. court over
one of his many constitutional transgressions and the
media's cover/squirrel story is;

"But wait, I'm black,remember?"
