The black president no longer

President Barack Hussein Obama’s second inauguration was every bit as historic as his first — not because it said so much about the nation’s long, bitter, unfinished struggle with issues of race, as was the case four years ago, but because it said so little about the subject.

Reflect for a moment: A black man stood on the Capitol steps and took the oath of office as president of the United States. For the second time. Meaning that not only did voters elect him once — which could be a fluke, a blip, an aberration, a cosmic accident — but then turned around and did it again.

Fllo me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.

Shame on every last Sumbeach who voted for this Muslim Communist.

[Izzy Dunne]

I'm glad that the nation got to the point where we could elect a partially black person to the Presidency.

It's too bad that it had to be wasted on such a hateful, spiteful, petty, small, loser.

DITTO!

[Rennes Templar]

Wouldn’t it be great for America if we had a good black President.

[17th Miss Regt]

But here we are, talking about legacy, not race. Which is simply amazing.

That is the last sentence of this screed. What he wanted to add on was

"And I simply can't relate to that. Race is central to everything in nmy worldview!"

[A_Former_Democrat]

No longer the “Unity” Pres__ent either, Eugene.

In fact he never was. It was all just smoke and mirrors to dupe enough white people

[jospehm20]

Yes it is.

[TigersEye]

I look forward to the election of the first American black president.

which could be a fluke, a blip, an aberration, a cosmic accident

Or massive cheating at the polls, with nary a bleep from the RINO candidate.

Obama has set race relations back at least 50 years.

He has fomented racism among blacks to the point it might well be the end of real progress.
How can there be peace between the races when blacks are taught that their every short-coming is the fault of whites?

The Obama/Holder message is that it is okay for blacks to hate, resent and envy whites beacause whites are evil racists.

And it is okay for blacks to be parasites on the taxpayers because whites owe it to them.

[skeeter]

What a boring, insipid editorial.

Sounds like Robinson's heart really isn't in this attempt at gloating.

[fatnotlazy]

If I hear that word, “historic” again today, I'm going to ralph. This inauguration should be a source of shame, not pride.

[ClearCase_guy]

Meaning that not only did voters elect him once — which could be a fluke, a blip, an aberration, a cosmic accident — but then turned around and did it again.

But we are still irredeemably racist, right?
We're still oppressing the poor black folks, yes?
We still filled with hate?
We do still owe lots and lots of reparations, right?
Nothing has changed? We're still evil?

[a fool in paradise]

The NEXT black president will get there on merit alone.

That will TRULY be historic.

[crosshairs]

not because it said so much about the nation’s long, bitter, unfinished struggle with issues of race

The only good thing about the first hussein regime is that it once and for all, clearly showed who the real racists are in this country, and it aint so much whitey.

EVERY presidency is historic, not just the ones won by this black bastard son of a bigamist.

With every election, history turns a page and the other path is not traveled.

But some people are so damn fixated on race, that it colors their entire world view. Their mamas brought them up wrong. Told them day in and day out that no white man would ever see beyond their skin color. That is simply child abuse and the generational spreading of hate.

A black man stood on the Capitol steps and took the oath of office as president of the United States. For the second time.

Fourth time. the first time Chief justice Roberts screwed it up and it had to be redone the next day. than for legal purposes they had to do it yesterday and then today for the show.

I expect that the,Obama daughters are also being taught that hate. A tragedy.

Oh, please. It takes 15 seconds to look up John Hanson and find out that the first one of those is a myth.

But no, let's spread the crap.

[MasterGunner01]

Barry is not really black; he's a mulatto. His supposed father was mostly Arab with some black and his mother was white. That's hardly “down for the struggle” bona fides. He's a foreign, Muslim, Marxist and that's good enough for 98 percent of America;s blacks as they exact revenge on whitey.

[Ray76]

Fluke, blip, aberration... they forgot fraud.

[Joe Boucher]

this ass clown sure hasn’t helped race relations in this country any

[TexasCajun]

Hurl!

Eugene, you and your MSM friends will be reminding us tomorrow and every day of your life that Obama IS Black and Conservatives are racist.

Many of your MSM friends aren't even waiting until tomorrow.

Sadly, you can't fix stupid.

So true!

[bgill]

The burning question is, is Moochelle proud this second time?

[SuziQ]

The NEXT black president will get there on merit alone.

And will probably be a Republican!

[Lancey Howard]

No, the moocher base of the Democrat party is not stupid - - the moochers elected the guy they thought would do everything he could to confiscate more tax dollars from their neighbors and hand over the loot in exchange for their votes. Shameless to be sure, and selfish obviously - - but not stupid.

(Okay, those normal-looking, traditional American families who work for a living and pay taxes yet inexplicably voted for the African communist... yeah, they're stupid, no question. Profoundly stupid.)
