New York Times Shocker: Only 31% of Whites Have Favorable Opinion of Obama.
The Patriot Room ^ | July 17, 2008 | Bill Dupray

Posted on 07/17/2008 2:31:07 PM PDT by Bill Dupray

And only Only 32% of whites think Obama is "Very Patriotic" versus 77% for McCain.

Another little gem. Guess which race will not vote for a black guy? Hmmmm.

Of course, we’re all racists for not supporting him. Nothing to do with his being a left-wing radical with Marxist views.

Blacks I’d vote for: Michael Steele, Condi Rice, Lynn Swann

The race-baiting nytimes attempting to ignore the fact that obama is a useless candidate that doesn’t have a clue. Platitudes don’t run the country and educated people don’t think resurrecting failed socialist policies have any place in what used to be a free country. Obama and his racist wife and cohorts need to vacate their hollow platform.

Hard to believe he is only at 31% right now. We haven't even began running attack ads yet.

Either these numbers are incorrect or else Bambi is heading for a landslide defeat in November.

But, but..........but he speaks well. Sometimes I think he has the mannerism and cadence of a preacher. But even so, we need to look past the platitudes that he speaks about.

Why are liberals never held to account for the results of their policies? If liberal Democratic, socialistic type policies were effective in their real world application, then, cities such as Detroit, Gary, Indiana, East St. Louis, Illinois, Camden, New Jersey, Washington, DC, Baltimore, etc. would be glittering jewels of prosperity, well educated people, low crime, low housing prices, and excellent public services. They would even have balanced budgets and low taxes.

Race baiting: injecting race into a debate where it has no legitimate place, for the sole purpose of heightening and exploiting racial tension, in order to stifle the debate. Those who engage in it are by definition racist.


Yup....New York Times qualifies.

BTW, More whites approve of Obamessiah than blacks approve of McInsane. Doesn't that make blacks far more racist by the NYT's own standards?

I don’t understand the logic, if Obama loses it will be because democrats didn’t vote for him, not because republicans didn’t vote for him, republicans should not be expected to vote for the democrat, therefore if he is rejected by the democrats, THE DEMOCRATS ARE RACIST

Why am I a racist — because I won’t for Obama. That is absolutely non-sense, really, is that all the leftists have...”if your white and don’t vote for obama, you’re a racist.” You know what, keep saying that, and you will completely turn me off...completely, I would vote for my car, before I would vote for obama if the media keeps it up...so, keep it up guy’s. My Grandmother was not college educated, but she had plenty of common sense, she would say, you reap what you sow — so, sow away — keep calling us racist.

I agree, Secretary Rice, woman and black, and I would vote for her. I wonder what that makes me? Hum....

Obama can thank his VENOMOUS BLACK RACIST buddies Michelle Obama, Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakhan, Al Sharpton and the rest of the nasty black panther types for this justifiable backlash against him.

"WHITE FOLKS' GREED RUNS A WORLD IN NEED!" - Barack Hussein Obama

Apparently whites are expected to vote for Obama after these people show their nasty racist attitudes toward whites?

Hey Obama, you mentioned in your book that Malcolm X speaks "poetry?" HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

On Illegal Immigration, the Republicans have a winning issue here, but the wrong candidate to capitalize on it.

This is why, I have come to have ALMOST as much contempt for the Republican Party as I have contempt for the Democrat Party. But in all truth, this Presidential Election is a primary run off of the Democrat Party between a anti-war Democrat and a pro-war Democrat.

A letter appeared recently in my local paper attempting to rebut an earlier letter questioning BHO’s patriotism. As God is my witness, the second letter writer (the would-be rebutter) wrote, “He (BHO) is running for president of the United States; that proves he’s a patriot because he wouldn’t be running if he didn’t love his country”. (Paraphrase from memory, but that’s very close-it only appeared last week or so.) That’s the sort of rocket scientist who will be voting in November.

“Only 31% of Whites Have Favorable Opinion of Obama.”

How many blacks have favorable opinions of McCain, Bush, and Reagan.

I’m guessing that blacks have proved their “racism” over and over...anybody have this info....

There’s a huge undecided component to the numbers. Only 37% disapprove of Obama. Likewise, McCain’s approval rating was only 35% among whites in the same poll, vs 28% disapproval.

Aerica can not afford even one racist president, not a white racist or a black racist, and Obama is definitely a racist. He has proved that by 20 years in a black racist church.

Condi supports abortion and affirmative action; plus, she has been unable to reign in the anti-American State Dept. She has never run for elected office.

Dybul took the oath of office with his hand on a Bible held by his domestic partner, Jason Claire. Rice referred to Claire's mother as Dybul's "mother-in-law".

Why would you vote for Condi Rice?

Congratulations white Americans. 31% of whites have favorable impressions of Barrack Obama.

Congratulations black Americans, only 5% of blacks have favorable impressions of McCain.

Bt the NYTimes implied logic, blacks are 5 times more racist than whites.

32% think he’s very patriotic, but 31% have a favorable opinion of him. Maybe 1% of people think being patriotic is a bad thing, and Obama has too much of it.

Sad, but that 5 times figure is close to reality, in my own direct observations. Nearly all white kids are taught to be tolerant of all, and to despise racism -- for at least the last 40 years. For black kids the messages are mixed -- in school from the authority figures they get the same messages as whites. But at home, and in the neighborhood, and in the black culture the message is not mixed, nor does it say anything about being tolerant.

The message is remember how the whites have victimized us. Another strong and constant message is that whites can't understand blacks.

And that last message, taken in, means the messages of tolerance and despising racism given in the schools are ignored.

Race is Not the issue here.The issue is whether Obama is qualified to lead the United States of America.

Sadly,Obama is totally unqualified on all points.

Not to mention he's a moron.
