Are you kidding? You have to be joking here, right?
How about you post the entire clip...It is SO clear that is taken out of context and that there is a lot more to the quote than that. If you found that, why don't you play the rest of it.....oh, wait...I am sure that is all the Republicans are allowing out.
There must be some kind of Repubican clip database you guys use that has only snippets of old interviews and speeches that you bring out during campaigns to try and slander your opposition and scare the American public into voting for your candidate. Amazing.
This is truly shameful. I am actually surprised you would try to pull such a ridiculous tactic. Are you going to be donning a white sheet and calling out the militias to "go to war" if Obama gets elected?
That last line there was a joke, by the way. I assume you understand that. I mean, this post of yours surely must also be a joke, right? racist....ya, okay....
No, I found this on the internet. It did not come from the Republicans.
If you actually knew me, you would know that I do not really like the Republicans. IN FACT, I think most of them are worse than Democrats.
They have become liberals and are still wearing the R next to their name claiming a big tent.
I did not take it out of context.
He said it.
I realize I am of course the problem because like Joe the Plumber, I dared to expose Barack Hussein Obama for the racist that he is.
Those were his words.
In just what context would "White executives living in the suburbs do not want to pay taxes so inner city children can have an education" be a good thing?
What Obama the racist doesn't want you to know is that the white executives are paying a lot of taxes for the failed social programs he championed as a "community organizer."
You have reacted exactly as I expected the "Obama crowd" would.
He said it. The words are his. You heard them and yet somehow I am wrong.
Very nice.
By the way, I am not a racist. I don't care what color you are, if you are a capable person and choose to not contribute to our society, I don't want to give you anything.
It has nothing to do with color and everything to do with character.
But I am sure you will make this racist.
It is your hero who has made the racist comments in his prior interviews ... NOT me.
I guess in your world, Obama said that just so people like me would find it and use it against him, kind of like just another oppression.
You know, using his own words ... how distasteful.
Ray I gotta say it again Joe the plumber is an idiot.
Although it was a lucky day for him when Obama showed up.
Joe the unlicensed plumber wannabe is cashing in with Fox.
He will probably be a rww radio tak show host someday.
Ray, On friday i would not call you a racist, but after your "native son" comment this morning, I would say that you represent the element of the GOP that Nobel winner Paul Krugman was talking about in his NY Times
op ed this morning.
You and your typical right wing group are losing this year.
Bruce, that was humor and I figured you of all people would get that.
I do not personally believe he is "from away." I mostly don't believe it because I am naive about people.
I cannot imagine someone running for President knowing they were not born here. I believe he was born in Hawaii as he claims, however, he could have ended all of this by simply supplying his birth certificate.
Of course, I could not imagine that Bill Clinton would risk his Presidency on Monica. I said so at the time. In fact, I defended him with that as my reason, that no one would risk their Presidency over an affair.
We all know how that turned out.
Does it make me a racist because I do not like him or what he stands for?
If all it takes to be a racist is to simply not like someone, then I guess I qualify.
I do not like Barack Obama. I do not like him because I disagree with almost everything he stands for.
If that makes me a racist, so be it.
Another redefinition by the liberals in this country.
You are now racist not because you dislike someone because of skin color, not you are a racist because you disagree with their ideas.
Kind of like the marriage thing, is there anything liberals will not seek to redefine and attempt to destroy?
No Ray, You said it more than once and you even asked Ted if he got it. Don't try to mask opinions with humor. Jokes like that, if it was a joke, are not acceptable today on most quarters.
Birth certificates are private and it is not up to Obama to prove anything. For the most part, the rw types that listen to you say look ray thinks Obama is from Kenya and is not a real American
Your affiliates on Fox and Friends could not find anything else to talk about except Obama's Half-Aunt. I suppose when you can't win on issues you go on smears.
We liberals do not want to redefine marriage. Let the churches deal with marriage The name or term marriage should carry no legal weight at all. Civil Union should be the only legal term regarding the union of two adults. We want to redefine what constitues a legal contract between two adults so they can get any benefits that come with the union that is accorded to heterosexual couples.
BTW You always seem to try to weasle out of your misguided comments by putting them down as jokes. You would not let anyone on the left get away with that.
Again, I know what I intended. It was humor on my part, but of course, I am not offended so easily.
Yes, it is Barack Obama's responsibility to show he is a natural born American. Where do you get such an idea that it is not? He is running for the Presidency of the United States and although, according to his own words, it is a flawed document, the Constitution says you must be born here to become President.
Why not prove it and dispell the rumors that are rampant on the internet. He started a website to dispell the lies about him, why not dispell this one?
By the way, I know facts do not matter to the left, but it was not right wingers who started this. The Daily Kos did during the primary in support of Hillary.
His aunt is an illegal who defied a deportation order and is living off taxpayer funds. How can that not concern you?
When someone defrauds our system, it takes away from those who are truly needy.
Why does Barry Obama spread the wealth to his auntie? I guess when it is his money, it is a dollar of an entirely different color.
He made four million last year. Why can't he lend his auntie a dime, with interest of course?
Change, yes the only change we will see from this guy is how to take the change out of one guy's pocket and put it into another's .... that is, of course as long as it is not his own money.
Hapy Days start wed morning.
Just think of all the material it will give you for your morning variety show
Like the song says, "You've got to stand for something, or you'll fall for anything" and liberals love to play the fall for anything game.
Dublltime, I have heard the entire interview that Obama gave in 1995, and I firmly believe this particular quote does have racist tones. If Obama wanted to be fair in his quote, why did he just say "White executive?" Why didn't he include Black executive, or Latino executive or Asian executive? Oh, pardon me, in your world view there are no such thing.
And as usual, Bruce has to attack an average American, just like the Obama loving media did, because he dared to ask a legitimate question that exposed Obama for the socialist that he is. You guys have absolutely no fairness about you and I find that to be a sad thing.
So, dbulltime and Bruce, I say rejoice! Enjoy this brief time in the sun that the misguided and mis-informed voters have given you. Because it won't last long. Even Obama won't be able to pull-off all the promises he made. The economic and political realities that he will face will prohibit his from doing so. Realities that his own party are solely responsible for.
So, enjoy, it'll be a nice run while it lasts. I just wonder when Obama's administration fails to pull off all these miracles if you'll be as quick to condemn him has you have been to condemn everyone else.
Something tells me you'll conviently go blind to those failures.
