Obama racial stereotypes, falsehoods flourish (Spoon Gagger)
Taiwan News ^ | 3/30/09 | Liz

Posted on 03/30/2009 12:34:25 AM PDT by pissant

In a country long divided by race, Barack Obama argues that Americans generally have been colorblind in judging him. Yet old racial stereotypes and Internet-fueled falsehoods flourish about the first black president.

In Obama's first two months in office, a New York tabloid took heat over a cartoon appearing to portray the president as a monkey; a California mayor resigned after distributing a picture of watermelons on the White House lawn; and an e-mail making the rounds refers to Obama as "the magic mulatto," with exaggerated ears and nose.

Disproved and disputed claims about his religion and citizenship, namely untruths that Obama is a Muslim and isn't U.S.-born, zip across chatrooms and dominate the blogosphere. Fringe critics largely are responsible for perpetuating the lies, but even elected officials have raised them.

"Some opponents on the far right try to undercut his presidency, much as the ultra left attempted with George W. Bush." The ultra left -- I think what this author meant was the entire "lame-stream media." Please, the ultra left -- try anyone on the left!

"...Most people on the street know more about Bristol Palin’s vagina...

Actually, I know more about BHO's MOM'S v@gina, after seeing the naked photos of her on the Net.

Discuss: The President's mother posed for nude photos, which are now disbursed far and wide, and yet the MSM is silent on this topic, as if everybody was doing it, and it's the norm. WTF?

! This has eluded me until now. Unbelievable.

You can’t see the portal to the Obama manufacturing center though. Unless he was as I suspect, a butt baby.

No. His father might have some Arab blood but he was far too dark-skinned and African looking to be only 1/4 black.

He might be Malcolm Little’s (Malcolm X) boy after all, I seem to recall he was fairly light. “Ashy” isn’t good (for him), it usually means someone has a serious medical problem. (I saw it when patients were going into shock when I was VFD/EMS, and it was considered an indicator.)

That’s a terrible insult to Mr. Hankey. He at least brings joy and laughter to millions.

I guess the party line is “it’s not her”. Sure does look just like her although the face in the nude photos is shaped in a slightly more attractive manner than other Stan Dunham pictures.

Are we taking bets?

Nobody seemed to react when I said Zero’s birth certificate line for “father” just had an “x” instead of a name.

I was not implying his real father was “unknown” or “illiterate”.

I can’t think of *anything* that would be as damaging as that particular “little revelation” to provoke him to go to such insane lengths to hide it.

Call me crazy.
I no longer care.

I looked at the photos out of purely academic interest up, down and sideways. I am 98% certain that the naked lady in those photos is the same human that was purported to be BHO’s mother.

Call me crazy.

Not me. Maybe we'lll all end up on the same ward (or in the same 'camp'), but there is a reason the Usurper won't cut loose with the paperwork.

Either he is ineligible, or people would not have voted for him based on the relations exposed there.

Otherwise, he'd produce the documents.

At this point, enough doubt has been established (and enough time passed to carefully research, forge, and 'age' documents) that I'm not sure I'd believe the dog-eared originals if they were placed in my hand and they showed nothing amiss.
