Unearthed: Young Obama took racial swipe at Colin Powell
WND ^ | MAY 25, 2012 | AARON KLEIN

President Obama took an apparent racial swipe at Colin Powell in a 1994 NPR interview in which he implied the four-star general is acceptable to “white America.”

In the same interview, Obama advocates that the government should provide jobs for every citizen and prenatal care for all women.

Obama in 1994 was a community organizer and lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School.

WND unearthed an Oct. 28, 1994, interview the future president gave to NPR in response to political scientist Charles Murray’s controversial book “The Bell Curve,” which argues that there are racial differences in intelligence.

During the radio interview, Obama said “the idea that inferior genes account for the problems of the poor in general, and blacks in particular, isn’t new, of course.”

“Racial supremacists have been using IQ tests to support their theories since the turn of the century,” he said.

Obama accused Murray of “pushing a very particular policy agenda, specifically, the elimination of affirmative action and welfare programs aimed at the poor.”

But, but.. that happened before he was president. Stick with the economy. That’s all we should talk about. . . .

Racist prick. He couldn’t carry Colin Powell’ coffee cup.

Where the heck was this story in 2008?

This isn’t a problem as Powell is a “self-hater”. He embraces the ideology of Harry B. who originally called him a house ni**er.

Anything Obama said in the past that was derogatory to Powell just makes Powell grow more fond of him.

So what? Powell still voted for hussein. It’s an “african thang”. And Powell will, no doubt, do it again.

Am half way through the book “The Amateur” and it does a good job of unmasking both Obummers. The only question mark I have at this point is that the author describes Zero as a veritable chick magnet at Harvard. (?!)

That claim reminds me of the ongoing plea the past 3 years for someone, ANYONE, who knew him back in college.....classmates, guys who were friends of his, chix he dated, to talk about it....and it seems that nobody even REMEMBERS him!

So I have a big ? regarding the chick magnet story.

He was still carrying Obummer’s water in an interview on Hannity the other night .... pretty heavy buckets if you ask me.

Funny, didn’t Biden imply the same thing about Obama? “I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,” he said. “I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”

Recollections of Obama’s Ex-Roommate

http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/01/20/recollections-of-obamas-ex-roommate/

http://myrightwingdad.blogspot.com/2011/04/fw-obamas-roommate-speaks-out.html

Barack Hussien Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent. To the contrary, he is brilliant. He knows exactly what he’s doing. He is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure, economic crisis and social chaos — thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within.
Barack Hussien Obama was my college classmate ( Columbia University , class of ‘83). He is a devout Muslim do not be fooled. Look at his Czars...anti-business..anti- american. As Glenn Beck correctly predicted from day one, Barack Hussien Obama is following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia University. They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming the system with government spending and entitlement demands.

Colin Powell in this case I agree with Obama. Colin and Michael Powell used the Bush family and got stabbed in the back

At the time the Bell Curve came out, liberals had made great “progress” in institutionalizing racial discrimination against white males. This had to be done because whitey was responsible for all Black quota inequality. The Bell Curve took care of that lie.

Powell is a Racist,He supported the Trancendant one and will do it again,He is selling his book now and on MSNBC he said Romney was wrong for saying Russia is our most Dangerous enemy. A couple hours later the Russians announced the sucessful test of a New Secret Intercontinental Ballistic Missle designed to defeat our Missle Defense system. I guess it will ok Now for Obama to sell out our missle defense to the Russians while he Cuts our missle Arsenal 80 percent.
Powell is a Phony BS artist
