WASHINGTON -- 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.

AP feels the need to remind us of Obama's "historic achievement" - being born half black.

[Squantos]

I’m no racist like he is ....I only insult his white half.

[Oldexpat]

No cartoons about Zero..Dear Leader..Chairman..
Just a reminder of the risks of critizing the TOTUS.

[workerbee]

The serfs must be asking too many smart questions for AP’s comfort. Quick, remind them of how racist and EVIL they are!

[cripplecreek]

And those who voted for Lord Zero out of twisted white guilt deserve every accusation of racism they get.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Yep.

[pnh102]

Yawn. Mocking Bush’s appearance was always acceptable to these people.

Like rewarding a whining child with what he’s whining for,

giving in and not speaking truth when falsely accused of racism just encourages more of the behavior.

Remember a few weeks ago when Michelle stated to a group of black DC school kids that she was harrassed for "talking like a white girl"? She implied that she studied and worked hard in school for good grades, so her "white girl" language meant she was smart, right?

So if the First Lady can make a racial comment like that, is it racist if I say "talking like a black girl" means I sound dumb?

Ah, yes, let’s distract from his incompetence and accuse his detractors as racists...works every time.

I don’t see a black guy when I look at him. I see pure unadulterated evil.

Consider some of these incidents since Obama took office Jan. 20: -- The New York Post apologized in the wake of protests over a cartoon that appeared to portray Obama as a violent chimpanzee gunned down by police. The tabloid said it was mocking federal efforts to revive the economy and making light of the animal killed by Connecticut police after it mauled someone. Critics said the cartoon echoed stereotypes of blacks as monkeys.

Never let the facts get in the way of a good story about racist enemies of the Dear Leader.

The cartoon did not portray the president as a monkey...

Can’t even get that right!

[Seeking the truth]

Are these self-ahhesive "Zero" stamps racialist?

Zerol stuff

[babygene]

“Despite Historic Achievement”

What historic achievement would they be referring to?

[ltc8k6]

He refers to himself as a mutt...

Thats not "Racism". It wasn't when the left published chimp pics of Bush either.

This may have come from Fox News, but it is an AP article. Seems to me to be just another attempt at race-baiting.

When will these moron realize that we don’t like the way he governs and that has nothing to do with race.

[Kakaze]

I could care less if he was a purple and pink pin stripped suit!

The "man" is a pawn and everything in his path is destroyed......now call me a racist if you want, but I never hesitate to tell anyone what I think about B. Hussein and the dumb asses that elected him.
