Actually, Chris would probably do a much better job.....

In response to the Sept. 1 letter “Color of your skin still matters in this country”: How right the writer is. Remember President Obama’s State of the Union address when a legislator shouted out “You lie!”? I am 59 years old and have never seen any president so disrespected.
How about the tea party’s “we want our country back”? That’s blatant racism.
Remember Donald Trump leading the Republican primary? He forced Obama to show his birth certificate again. Trump had no intention of running for president. He doesn’t want his business dealings to be scrutinized.
No one can say where Mitt Romney stands on major issues. He’s in a virtual dead heat with Obama because Obama is black.
The Obama presidency highlighted the Republican Party as the white people’s party. Far too many whites will never vote for a black man. But like all other civil rights struggles, there are just enough fair-minded white people to overcome the ignorance.
It still amazes me that a human being can hate another because of skin color. My black brothers and sisters also need to wake up. If they are prejudiced against whites, then they are no better than racist white people.
I think that by electing this country’s first black president, the United States has worldwide respect as never before. Now, we look like we walk it like we talk it.
What do you think the world view was in the ’60s? We preached democracy and freedom while white police beat blacks with nightsticks, let dogs bite them, stung them with high-pressure fire hoses. I would imagine the United States was viewed as a nation of hypocrites.
White people, please, don’t adhere to the tea party battle cry “we want our country back.” Check out Romney’s position on important issues. Don’t vote for Romney just to get rid of the black man in office.
Why do democrats always obsess about people’s skin color? I personally wouldn’t care if Zero looked like Christopher Walken. He has screwed up for four years, and its time for him to step aside and let someone else have a go at turning things around. I for one am really tired of paying 70 dollars to fill up my tank, and of looking at one shuttered up shop after another where there used to be hectic commerce.
Hussein is not disrepected. He is incompetent.
No, two different State of the Union addresses. Joe Wilson (correctly) shouted “you lie!” at the ‘09 SotUA. Justice Roberts mouthed “not true” (correctly again) at the ‘10 SotUA.
“Donald Trump leading the Republican primaries”
Ah yes, I remember that well.
The debates and all of the primaries he won.
(Thanks 2DV for this article. I gave me a huge chuckle.)
Justice Roberts mouthed “Yes We Can”.
You’re right. Thanks for the correction.
Larry, open your eyes, I don’t care for this kenyan but would vote for the following Black men in a heartbeat, Clarence Thomas, Walter E. Williams, Larry elder, and a whole bunch of others, It’s not because he is black, It’s because of how his thought process is flawed.
Really not worth quibbling about since he does lie but...
Hope the link works...I’m not good at it.
I’m past 78th birthday, and I never saw a president so direspected than George Bush, and especially when he professed and stood for and on Christian principles!
Most of the disrepect was focused on and toward: “God, Christ, the Church and the teaching of Christ!”
I should have known it wasn’t a SotUA because I don’t think there was one in ‘09 since he had just taken office. Doh!
The guy yammers so much it’s hard to remember which event he was at, lol.
I think Roberts actually mouthed “Hope and Change”, or was it “Forward”?
He could be a white/black like George zimmerman is a white/hispanic
I doubt it.
No self-respecting Massillonian would write for the Canton Suppository.
I grew up in Massillon. Nice little town that lives for High School Football and loves its Tigers.
The Canton paper was always a joke. At the time, the Massillon “Evening Independent” was a good Eisenhower-Republican paper......
Half Breed
My father married a pure Cherokee
My mother’s people were ashamed of me
The indians said I was white by law
The White Man always called me “Indian Squaw”
[CHORUS:]
Half-breed, that’s all I ever heard
Half-breed, how I learned to hate the word
Half-breed, she’s no good they warned
Both sides were against me since the day I was born
We never settled, went from town to town
When you’re not welcome you don’t hang around
The other children always laughed at me “Give her a feather, she’s a Cherokee”
[Repeat Chorus]
We weren’t accepted and I felt ashamed
Nineteen I left them, tell me who’s to blame
My life since then has been from man to man
But I can’t run away from what I am
[Repeat chorus]
*No wonder Cher loves Zero)
Seems like he’s out there babbling on every single day.
