Lame - Obama Plays Preemptive Race Card (Obama: Republicans Are 'Typical White People'
411mania ^ | 6/23/2008 | Enrique

Posted on 06/24/2008 10:08:54 AM PDT by Laissez-faire capitalist

Oh my, I do believe we're starting to get evidence that Barack Obama's definition of "change" is painfully synonymous with "politics as usual." Recently, in an apparent effort to move to the political center, Obama's had some convenient changes of heart. He's rejected public financing for his general election campaign, despite previously and frequently promising he wouldn't. Obama has decided to support the new FISA bill, which is certainly playing againt his Most-Lefty-U.S.-Senator type.

BUt thankfully, there's one Democrat/lefty principle Obama would never betray - crying "Racism!" without justification:

"We know what kind of campaign [the REpublicans are] going to run. They're going to try to make you afraid," Obama said at the fundraiser. "THey're going to try to make you afraid of me. He's young and inexperienced and he's got a funny name. And did I mention he's black? He's got a feisty wife.

Yes, we all know every single GOP voter is a Super Secret Racist at heart, so you morally upright lefties better turn out in droves to defeat those awful, filthy, bigoted McCain supporters. You know how those people are...

1.) Obama: "They're going to try to make you afraid. They're going to try to make you afraid of me."

Obama drops the fear bomb.

2.) "And did I mention he's black."

Obama preemptively plays the race card and engages in race baiting.

And all of this coming from the man who use racially sterotypical words when describing white people:

Obama: "typical white person."

And at his first service at Trinity United he heard the "Audacity of Hope" sermon from Rev. Wright.

The sermon which - on pages 291-295 of his book "Dreams from My Father" - Obama heard Rev. Wright preach "white folks greed runs a world in need."

And Obama decides to join the church after that?

Obama has no right to lecture anyoone on race or racism. He uses racist words ("typical white person") and hangs around racists (Rev. Wright) even when he knows from their first sermon that they are a racist.

3) and inexperienced

He wraps his inexperience in the same breath as racism. Now if you say anything about his inexperience, you are a typical white person.

So you saw that, too.

Sounds like Rev. Wright in a way.

Rev. Wright said that an attack on him was really an attack on all black churches.

So now if someone points out Obama’s inexperience, it is tanatamount to a racial attack.

Sad but typical of lefties.

If we are concerned about his level of experience does that make us experiencists?

Well after we paint him as inexperienced, which he is.

Elitist, which he is.

Liberal, which he is.

Out of touch, which he is.

We seem to have enough ammo to also paint him as a racist, which he is.

Obama’s glasses are tinted in such a way so that he can see others as being racist towards him, but oh, no, he could never, ever say anything racist towards others.

Never!

This tactic only works on those who are easily quelled. He is supposed to be the "Post Racial" candidate but he is using the same old hustles. If I am criticized it is because I am black.

Does anybody believe Obama did NOT know Wright's positions on race, America, etc. and that Obama's denials are lies? Does he have the integrity and experience for the job?

RUSH:...This guy, ladies and gentlemen, is diabolical. Barack Obama will do and say anything. This is a disgrace, and people should be furious with this kind of thing. It is the Democrat Party that brought up race.

He knows that the GOP has Words of Mass Degradation and therefore it’s important to have a preemptive strike to prevent these W.M.D.s from being used upon the innocent.

It’s only June and he is already playing the race card.

I wonder if Obama! is worried about the election. A lot of the Hillary voters may vote for McCain, you know.

The Post Racial schtick was deflection, BHO must be the victim of any & all opponents....he has nothing else to run on, this is the only strategy he has that may or may not work in the GE. IMO he will singlehandly destroy the Leftist canards of PCism as well as racism.

Obama, rather than running as a strong leader, is running as a victim and most of his positions on the issues reflect his sense of resignation and reliance on others to make necessary decisions.

This man is dangerous. He’s deceitful and clever. So clever that the MSM has bought hook, line and sinker his auto-bio especially the part that says he was born in Hawaii Aug 4, 1961. Fact is, that it’s becoming more and more clear that we don’t really know where he was born.

Please read the following:

I’ve casually researched Obama’s birth history over the past several days as have others on this site. Collectively what we’re finding begs a response from the Obama camp. As you know his birth history and pedigree are largely taken from his own auto-bio and has never been corroborated by anyone independently.

Here’s what I and others have found:

1. TWO HOSPITALS LISTED AS BEING WHERE OBAMA WAS BORN

I googled “Obama’s birthplace” and got the following:
From Wikipedia

( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama )

Obama was born on August 4, 1961, at the Kapiolani Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Obama, Sr., of Nyangoma-Kogelo, Siaya District, Kenya, and Ann Dunham, of Wichita, Kansas.

COMMENT:This is different from what other sites list including Obama friendly sites. They state that OBAMA was born at Queen’s Medical Center.

( see:http://www.barackobamaismyhomeboy.com/biography )

ALSO: Kapiolani Hospital did not open until 1989 although the Hospital for women and children was open at the time.

This discrepancy in my mind is interesting BECAUSE THERE SHOULD BE NO DISCREPANCY.

2. NO RECORD OF BIRTH OR MARRIAGE OF PARENTS.

I searched via the pay investigative site Ancestry.com for Barry or Barack Obama, or Barry or Barack Dunham or Stanley Ann Dunham etc. and keyed in also Aug 4, 1961 and Hawaii, and Honolulu etc. and came up with no record of a birth or marriage. Others have checked this through similar but different searches and also found nothing.

3. BIRTH CERTIFICATE CLEARLY A FORGERY

The Birth Certificate posted on the Obama website and Daily Kos appears to be a forgery.

Please see: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2034411/posts

and

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2034476/posts

and this posting of yours

http://beta.freerepublic.com/perl/post?id=2035307,1

4. NO EYE WITNESSES OF BIRTH

There have been no eye witnesses of Obama’s birth from the hospital. No nurse or doctor coming forth to recall caring for the mother or child.

5. KENYAN RELATIVES HAVE TOLD REPORTERS THAT HE WAS BORN IN KENYA

It has been reported that Kenyan relatives initially had said that Obama was born there but are silent about this now.

Please see: http://alanpetersnewsbriefs.blogspot.com/2008/06/obamas-birth-circumstances-review.html

6. GRANDMOTHER IS KEPT AWAY FROM MEDIA

The grandmother has been kept away from the MSM perhaps because she knows the truth about Obama’s birth and parents marital status.

Please see: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2034644/posts

This man is running for the presidency of the United States. It seems fair and proper that the public knows his birth history and pedigree.

The marital status is a non-issue because his father is known to already have been married. Therefore, what difference does a marriage ceremony make? In any case, this is not something which can in any way be seen as Obama’s fault and it has no effect on his eligibility to run. I can even understand a desire on his part not to publicise this.

Obviously, if he was born overseas that’s a different matter altogether because it has a direct bearing on his elibility for the office, not to mention his honesty if he’s lying about it.

Yep. Obama is smooth. And I never did like smooth talkin' politicians.

Sounds like Rev. Wright in a way.

Like mentor, like son.

You know, I would like to see the first black President. But I am not going to vote for someone because of skin color. I am going to vote for or against someone because of where they stand. Obama's voting record (what little there is) leans left in a dramatic way. I could never support someone like that no matter what.

And know this, if there was a black Ronald Reagan running, I would be sending him money and doing what I could to get him elected. So, this race crap is just that.

The issue is basically that he has orchestrated a lie and the MSM is going to let him get away with it?

the best explanation is that he was born in Kenya. This might affect his eligibility. We need to demand NOW that he present proof of his citizenship and birth history. He needs to show proof of birth here with an original BC.

Only people who hate blacks and who are islamophobic would vote against Obama. Or at least thats what the media will be telling us. I mean what other reason could there be to vote against a radical with no record?

I heard that Allen West will be giving a speech addressing Obama and the use of “race” in politics. The GO WEST campaign will be videotaping the speech and it should be released sometime next week.
