The racist creeps over in Freeperville are really frightened of Obama
As evidenced by thread after thread after thread about him, replete with such comments as this:

"To: jdm
Barack Obama is very similar to Deval Patrick and, in some ways, Harold Ford jr.
All are black, but not very. All are extreme leftists.

And all attract huge shares of white votes from white voters who don't agree with them about anything.

The "Obama for President" thing is scary because he (and Deval) have copped on to the fact that there is a huge population of white voters, mostly but not all young, who have been so stigmatized by the incessant charge of "white racism" that they are looking for a candidate who can bring them redemption.

I'm reminded of an interview in the Boston Globe in October. The subject was the wife of a union drywall guy who was out of work because all the drywall in Massachusetts is hung by illegal aliens. Deval Patrick's obsession with protecting illegals was taking bread off of her table. And yet, she was voting for him. Why?

"I'm voting for him because he is so well-spoken".

Well spoken compared to WHAT, exactly?

Compared to nigg***, that's what. This woman, and millions of others like her, are guilty not because of their parents or grandparents. They are guilty because of what they believe and feel RIGHT NOW.

It's a deep dark secret. Wives don't tell husbands. Children don't tell parents. NOBODY tells teacher (who says kids are stupid?).

But deep down, this woman and half of the white electorate thinks that blacks are different - way different - and to expiate their guilt and shame, they flock to Deval, and Obama.

I thnk that he actually has a shot."


Or this:

"What's driving Obama-mania?
He's the only black man that uses proper English on TV."

And then of course there's this deep seated fear:

"I want to know where he was born. Is he a natural born citizen of the U.S.? The way people are flocking to him, I suspect he could be the Anti-Christ."


What a bunch of dumb racist fucks.

3. If only their ugly racism
and general idiocy could be attributed to massive alcohol intake. Unfortunately, it's what they actually believe.

17. I laughed at that too.
Now, why did most liberals in Tennessee hold their nose to vote for him?

4. Such blatant racism is why I can't stand to go over there
That plus the vicious homophobia and anti-woman attitudes always make me feel like I need to shower after peeking in over there. Yuck.

16. it's scarier than that. The hardcore "Christians" believe that the anti-christ
will be a man who claims to bring peace, and gets all of the world to stop fighting. Then after 7 years of peace, he will be unmasked and we will all die in torents of fire.

or some such crap. :eyes:

9. "All are black, but not very"
I am having a hell of a time figuring out what that means.
Already I am tired of all this race talk. BTW isn't Obama white and black?

15. That's the funniest, imo.
They mean Obama is not 100% black. His mother is caucasian. But I don't know who they think they're fooling, even if he was 100% black (as they say), they would still make excuses.

10. Clearly the wife of the drywall guy is only voting for Obama
because of all the liberal guilt she feels over the fact that drywall is white.

12. They are showing themselves for who they really are.
Edited on Mon Dec-11-06 06:09 PM by Tiggeroshii
I think there's a pretty large concensus who would agree that post is incredibly racist. It will definitely expose the racist pricks for who they are, in that they won't be able to hide behind borderline-racist/ racist innuendo. They are outright saying it. And that will lost a large amount of the GOP base it's credibility, and footing -whereas the GOP candidates will be forced to alienatet hem to win.

Just a thought...

20. They don't have anything legitimate to criticize him about,
and they haven't had time to make shit up yet, so they're grabbing whatever is convenient. It's sad.

19. I was gonna say....
I think it would be refreshing to have a President who didn't see language as a major impediment to communication. Doesn't really matter to me what color he/she is.

22. As a New Yorker, Obama would get my vote in a Primary
against Hillary. Yes, I voted for her BOTH times for Senator. However, there is something unique and inspirational about Obama.

Given a choice between Hillary and St. Rudy, however, hands down I will vote for Hillary, any day. Replacing one corrupt bully (Bush) with another corrupt bully (Rudy) won't cut it. This New Yorker didn't develop amnesia on 9/11.

27. Obama doesn't have enough experience.
I'd vote for him but I don't think that America is ready for a black president.


(Note: I don't agree with either statement, but it's DU policy that an Obama is required to contain them within the first 30 responses.)

28. "Not very"?
I wasn't aware you could be "not very" black. Seriously, they need serious help if they actually believe a politician is the anti-Christ.

31. Many, many of those posts are overtly
racist. That you can't see that is alarming. You don't think it's racist to assume that the only reason a white person would vote for a person of color is out of guilt? You don't think that stating that Obama is the only black person on TV who can speak English well isn't racist? Not to mention about a hundred other posts on that thread.

32. I only read the posts here
So I can't speak for the rest of them. And no I don't think it is racist to assume that others would vote for a black person out of guilt. I think the assumption is dead wrong but the poster there is only saying what he thinks others are thinking.

As far as the the post went about Obama speaking English, again I read that as a guess about what others were thinking. Again, I think the poster is incorrect but again, it isn't racist to assume others might be. If that was the poster's own words, than yeah its definitely racist.

You keep telling me I'm wrong. I explained why I thought they weren't and you just tell me I'm wrong.

What makes them racist?

35. Stating that
Obama is the only black on TV who can speak proper English is patently a lie, and denigrates such people as Ed Bradley, Juan Williams, and many, many others. It perpetrates the bigoted lie that blacks don't speak the language well. As for the post about white guilt, for fuck's sake, the poster uses the N word in his post. Not to mention, that that claim assumes that blacks couldn't possibly have any positive attributes that would draw people to them. It's also insulting to whites to assume that they would only vote for a black candidate out of guilt. Pretty simple.

38. Attention lurking Freeper idiots
Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii. In 1961. That means it (HI) was a state and not a territory at the time. Which makes him a citizen, you idiot.

And despite the 'funny sounding name' he's a convert to Christianity (United Church of Christ). So go chew on that for a while, if you can.

Racist assholes.
