Can Obama survive? [Hate-filled Americans who will never accept a black man as president](Unreal)
The Globe and Mail ^ | August 28, 2009 | Gerald Caplan, Special to The Globe and Mail

The campaign against health-care reform fuels a huge number of hate-filled Americans who will never accept a black man as president.

Barack Obama seemed remarkably upbeat the other day as he left for his first formal vacation as president. It's true that this is one of the coolest cats the world has ever seen, always apparently comfortable in his own skin, unflappable, dignified, whatever the winds swirling around him.

But that doesn't mean he's always right, and there are plenty of reasons to fear that he's very wrong if he doesn't think he's in big, deep trouble.

It's hard when discussing American politics not to want to break into constant superlatives, as in “the craziest” this or “the most extreme” that. I saw a clip the other day of conservative bloviator Charles Krauthammer asserting as a matter of indisputable fact that if Obama lost the health-care battle his administration was over. Full stop. Over. May as well turn the keys of the White House over to Sarah Palin. Yet it's barely half a year since his inauguration and 3½ to go. This is as preposterous a comment as is conceivable – you see, superlatives are already inescapable – yet his fellow pundits on the panel all mindlessly agreed.

What is true is that the U.S. President and the presidency are in great jeopardy, but not from the health-care battle as such. There are an abundance of dire warning signs.(continued)

ObaMao is, at most, 3/8th black and perhaps as little as 1/8th. His days of hiding behind that label are numbered.

Obama: Fake black man. Fake Messiah. Fake American. How many more fakes can fit into one Zero?

Hate filled Americans??

The facts:

Obama doen’t care about public opinion any more. Few people get that.

He has 44 leftist czars, he owns Homeland security, has his own discrete cadre within the SS,
controls the NSA, Has all major TV in his pocket and 1/2 of Fox doing his beck and call,has initiatives in place to shut down conservative talk radio, has conservatives branded as possible terrorist by Homeland Security with a data base of names,has the GPS coordinates of every citizens home through census data with the census run out of the White House,has taken over the major intel functions of the CIA and is running that from the White House while cowing the CIA with prosecutions, has his historical and birth records sealed and cauterized.

Now we may see Obama rule the country through executive orders with the Congress passing laws to cover them after the fact.

We will have conflict, a civil war of institutional proportions at the federal and state levels of government. Obamaphiles within our government institutions will enforce his coming edicts.Patriots will refuse to act, or run interference that may lead to violence.That is the possible war to come.We see glimpses of it from within the CIA.Some states already have conntingency plans to ask federal agencies to leave their state until they are invited to return,

The result will be a declaration of martial law, if Obamaphile government emplyees have the strength to enforce it. If they do, then we will not have a genuine election for the next 20 years.

Patriots must gird themselves. We are in for a very rocky ride with Hopey Changey.May we with the help of God, save the Republic.

It ain’t his black skin that worries me, it is his black heart.

New Democratic Party equals Socialist Party.

This is like a race speech when you’re nominated for president, stupid.

BTW, he wasn’t raised black and has nothing in common with stateside African-Americans.

I have a list of several Black Americans I would be proud to have as president. The liberals just can’t stop playing the race card!

That has to be the worst article yet. And that’s saying a whole lot. I work for a Toronto based company, the Globe and Mail is a waste of paper and ink.

I know some very sharp blacks, and (horror of horrors) one is even gay (albeit quite conservative).

I’d vote for any of them over the Obamaloon.

Obama is - quite simply - a simpleton.

He ain’t up to the job.

He’s never had a job.

He’s stupid

Period.

Wth is this? This got published in a newspaper? Sixth graders write more intelligently than this. Liberalism really does make you stupid.

"...saw a clip the other day of .... Charles Krauthammer asserting as a matter of indisputable fact that if Obama lost the health-care battle his administration was over. Full stop. Over. May as well turn the keys of the White House over to Sarah Palin."

Heh... totally agree with that assessment. Not only that, I find it hard to see how Bozo will be able to successfully get out of the corner he's painted himself into.

He can simply enact Obamacare against the clear will of The People, which will of course result in the destruction of the Democrat party as we know it, and very likely spark a second American Revolution, which will resurrect the true, free American republic.

Or, he can pull the plug on the whole thing, and become a certified lame duck Resident from here until the end of his term, simultaneously becoming the anchor that pulls all Socialists down into the abyss with him.

Can't say that I dislike either one of those alternatives.

I’m with ya here! I’d support and work for Dr. Thomas Sowell as President. Has nothing to do with race and everything to do with their views.
