What If Obama Were White?
World Net Daily ^ | June 12th, 2012 | Mychal Massie

Posted on 06/12/2012 8:26:06 AM PDT by ReformationFan

For nearly four years, criticisms of Obama’s policies, lack of business experience and Marxist proclivities have been labeled as racists attacking him because he’s black. And, of course, he has done nothing to defuse those ridiculous allegations. But let’s flip these allegations over for a moment.

If a white man with no business experience of any kind, on any level, were elected president and his economic plan increased government spending, increased government intrusion into private business and increased taxes on the so-called rich – what would criticism of him be because he is white? If this same white president employed failed Keynesian economic strategies, which resulted in his increasing our total national debt more than the first 41 presidents combined, in less than three years of his first term in office – would criticism of him be because he is white? If this hypothetical white president were driving us off an economic cliff from which economists say there is no return, would criticism of him be because he is white?

If, in less than his first full term, this hypothetical white president, increased food-stamp spending 100 percent – would calling him “the food-stamp president” be because he is white or because he is a dismal failure? If the increase in defense spending and transportation spending accelerated 11 percent each in his first three years, if Medicaid spending increased 27 percent in his first three years, and if food-stamp spending increased to $110 billion in his three first years would calling him “the food-stamp president” be because he is white? If food-stamp recipients increased by more than 14 million people in his first three years, raising the total number of recipients to more than 46 million, would disapproval of his economic policies be because he is white?

The only reason he gets a pass is that he’s (partially) black. If he were white, the tar and feathers would have come out long ago. Chris Matthews ... “do you really think people would vote against the first black president for a second term?” ... makes ‘ya sick!

If he were white, conservatives would be just as opposed and more vocal. His black ancestry has allowed his supporters to attribute principled opposition to vile racism. This shuts down discussion and slanders the person opposed to his policies. Yet, it's all a con game. They know we didn't support Clinton and his socialistic policies for health care, for example. They know we don't agree with bigger government approaches. Yet, this McCarthyite slander works for them to quiet many people. Instead of saying we're communists to shut us up they say we're racists. That's their tolerance. That's their counter argument. That's their bludgeon to end diversity of ideas.

If Obama were white, he’d still be a socialist and I’d still oppose him.

Gore, JFK, Nixon.....I don’t think any of these had business experience. Jimmy Carter did run a peanut farm.

The thing is that Obama IS half White. So, at least half of the press should be blaming him, LOL
