Former NBA Star/Sports Show Host John Salley: Why Doesn't 'White America' Love Obama Anymore?

You may have never thought you could get this political insight from a sports commentator, but former NBA Detroit Pistons star-turned-host of "The Best Damn Sports Show Period" on Fox Sports Network John Salley has defied expectations. Salley recently appeared on September 23 edition of "The Adam Carolla" podcast and asked Carolla a very pointed and insightful question.

"I have a question - do you hate Obama?" Salley asked. "Why are so many people who now hate him after just 266 days they loved him? All of white America. Not all of ‘em but the majority."

Because the empty suit is a communists and has done nothing for America except to destroy it.

Because the parroted Left Wing/MSM accusations of “racism” are false and unsubstantiated.

I cannot stand Obama in the same way I cannot stand Chuck Schumer, John Kerry or Barbara Boxer...I loathe Liberals, not just black Liberals.

This goes to show how great the political divide is. Apparently most but not all Blacks have no clue or understanding of the Conservative positions. All they get is what they get from their “leaders” and the state run media.

This can actually be said for a lot of people on the left and not just Blacks. They have no understanding of the opposition. They think we are all racists because it could not possibly be Obama’s policies. It has to be racism.

Because we are “Post Racial”. Color doesn’t matter in our love or hate for an individual.

Because when you sell something you have to eventually deliver a product, not more selling.

We don’t like the product and we will not be sold any more.

"I have a question - do you hate Obama?" Salley asked.

Yup.

"Why are so many people who now hate him after just 266 days they loved him? All of white America. Not all of ‘em but the majority.

Because,as some of us did at the very beginning,many folks have recently come to understand "the content of his character".

John Salley - My estimation of Mr. Obama has not changed one scintilla since last year. Unfortunately he has just confirmed my expectations...
Expectations warranted for someone with a record of supporting any form of abortion (the only legislation that he showed any zeal in promoting when he was in an Illinois State Senator: bottling up legislation that was intended to protect infants that somehow escaped the late term abortionist's dagger); dealing in deception; promoting marxist positions; inexperienced; sitting as a 'proud' member for 20 years in a racist and blasphemous church.
No, my opinion hasn't changed... I wish he had proved me wrong.
He hasn't.

Because he has pursued policies that are bad for this nation and bad for the people of this nation. That is really the very simple answer.

Exactly.I...the post racial "Gay State Conservative"...can have *enormous* respect for someone like Dr Rice (I never have "loved",and never *will* "love" a politician or government official),as well as many others,and can *despise* individuals like Kennedy,Reid,Pelosi,Osama Obama and many others.

The only thing that distinguishes President Obama from an enpty suit is that outstanding pair of jug ears.

“I have a question - do you hate Obama?”

I would ask the question in return ... do you really want a discussion or do you just want a reason to call me a racist?

If you really want a discussion, drop the words "hate Obama" and forget about mentioning the word racist. If you do, then we can communicate.
