Oprah: President Obama disrespected because he's African-American
WLS ^ | 11/15/13

Posted on 11/15/2013 8:44:15 AM PST by SoFloFreeper

In a recent interview with BBC News, Oprah Winfrey said that President Obama is disrespected because he is an African-American.

"There’s a level of disrespect for the office that occurs. And that occurs in some cases and maybe even many cases because he’s African-American," Winfrey said. "There’s no question about that, and it’s the kind of thing nobody ever says but everybody’s thinking it."

Speaking with the BBC's Will Gompertz in the UK to promote "The Butler," Winfrey also spoke to the global issue of racism.

"It's gotten better. Are there still places where people are terrorized because of the color of their skin, because of the color of their black skin? Yes."

"The president's specific words: I'm “really good at killing people,” authors Mark Halperin and John Heilemann write"

Now he continues with one of his strengths by turning his attention to killing Americans with his 0DontCare.

If more people got popped in the mouth for calling others “racist” at the drop of a hat,

we’d have a lot fewer incidents of it, don’t ya think?

There needs to be some immediate consequences for this kind of slander.

Black people are going to say that about Obama. It’s BS because a man of any color who is destroying the country should be stopped and I mean stopped right now. If he was the Purple People Eater, which he is, he must be stopped. He is half white anyway and that part that is half white must be stopped. Must be stopped are the operative words, not a color.

That makes sense to me: I mean OBVIOUSLY the reason so many people hated Bush was because he was black too!

FUOW!

Obama may have one drop of Negro blood in him from his grandmother....other than his American mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, Barry is Arab. Is Oprah playing the race card for politics or is she serious?

No sweetie peetie, we disrespect Obama because of his politics, it has nothing to do with his skin pigment.There is no rascism to really speak of in America anymore, sweetie, the nation made you a multi millionaire and elected Obama, so the old swag line that “Its rascist!” just does not work in this case.

Smarten up Oprah and act responsibly, come on gurl, you can do it!

Obama is not disrespected because he Black....he is disrespected because he lies, lies, lies!!! He actually is a total embarrassment to the entire American Black community, as well as the entire nation!!! Any American that holds him (Obama) in high esteem and respect is either drunk, high on drugs, drinking too much Kool-Aid or, just simply insane!!! End of story!!! Oprah...you have seen your best days....no one listens to a word you utter!!!

Boy, this kind of stuff gets old. If the Blacks would stop complaining like this racism would go away. We, and I think I speak for all Freepers, don’t care if Obama is Black, green, pink, orange, White, Hispanic, Hmong, whatever. We DO NOT like his policies and politics. We like many Black leaders and support many Blacks in many positions but, Oprah, still thinks if we don’t like an inexperience socialist president then we’re racist. After the way the Obamas have dissed Orpah I’m surprised she’s still drinking the Kool-Aid.

Close but no banana, Oprah. People don’t dislike O because he’s (supposedly an American) black man. Rather, it is O that is giving black people a bad reputation in America. (Unfair and very unfortunate. I firmly believe we must all fight racial generalizations. But that’s the reality. The negativity flows from O’s anti-American anti-Christian, anti-Jewish, anti- jobs attitudes and policies. ..... to blacks Not from being black to O. )

“There are still generations of people, older people, who were born and bred and marinated in it, in that prejudice and racism. And they just have to die.”

So old people should die? Well, don't worry, honey, they will, thanks to your pal, Obama.
