Chicago Bears head coach Lovie Smith is endorsing President Barack Obama as part of an outreach effort by the re-election campaign to encourage continued support from the African-American community.
“I have the president’s back and it’s left up to us as African Americans to show that we have his back, also,” the coach says. “Join African Americans for President Obama today.”

Go Pack Go.
The Bears still suck!
This is one reason that I enjoy watching the Bears lose. Lovie calls himself a Christian and needs to wake up and smell the coffee. The Bible warns the believer to have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness but reprove them. The Christian left in this country is inviting a more severe rebuke on their lives and it is coming.
Barf alert!
and
FUBO
too!
Let’s hope they all have Obama’s back in the same way Obama has Israel’s. If the going gets tough, they’ll bail and express their “deep caring & concern”.
I bet it’s because he’s white!
Chicago is one big inseparable happy family, otherwise they kill you or someone you love.
Enough said...........
Com’ On Lovie, what are you thinkin’?
What does the president’s color have to do with our vote, coach?
Sounds like a “racist” to me.....
He’s a just a moron - politics has nothing to do with it.
Racist pig Smith.
With a name like that, he must be black, 99% of blacks love the communist in chief, no surprise here.
With some people, race trumps everything. Lovie appears to be one of those people. He pretty much said so himself with his comments.
If I owned the Bears,,,,,,,,,LS would be unemployed come Monday.

But if the Klan were to support the GOP nominee all hell would break loose and the GOP nominee would spend the rest of the campaign disavowing any group that would support him because of the colour of his skin, all the while the media is praising the “solidarity” of the black race. Truly Orwellian.
It wouldn’t be so bad if Smith had LEFT OUT THE RACIAL ANGLE. For example, no one begrudges John Elway’s occasional support for (invariably conservative/ pro-business) measures. But just imagine if Elway said, We European-Americans have [this candidate]’s back, etc.
>>I have the president’s back and it’s left up to us as African Americans to show that we have his back, also,<<
Pretty much knee-jerk. They vote for barry the zero because of the color of his skin, not because of his disastrous, anti-American policies.
We have a real problem with racism in this country but it is within the Black and “People of Color” communities, not the White one.
The absurdity is that the blatant racism of that remark, yes racism, is missed by the man uttering it, the media, the left, and most in the middle. Tweak it ever so slightly by saying "Caucasian-Americans for Newt" and you will forever be labeled as a KKK kook.
BTW... Go Pack!
black americans for col west! black americans for herman cain! kenyans for dunham.
Race trumps reason.
Shoulda waited a day, Lovie.......if something racially explosive comes out tonight will he be asked about it?
Ha!!
So I just reread this....
Mr. Smith is supporting Obama just based on his skin color.
Is that about right?
Imagine Dick Butkus or Mike Ditka's reaction to this racist bastard rant?
Blacks for The Messiah is what the whole 2008 Election came down to.
Now, with our Country flooded with Illegals who are voting for Obama, too, plus the parasitic government Union Employees, we sure are close to the tipping point.....
It’s the Chicago Way.
Isn’t is sooooo nice to have the choice made sooooo easy. Let’s see. Paint by numbers and you got the picture.
Not all government employees. Most my coworkers at the postal facility I used to work at were Reagan conservatives We used to laugh at the national union's political propaganda.
It’s okay with me if all the black folks vote for the Kenyan and all the white folks vote for the other guy. Really, that’ll be fine by me.
But how do “us, as African Americans,” feel about all the many ways he has hurt YOU? Truly insane.
I really don’t mind the players or coaches supporting Baraq because a lot of them aren’t smart or aware enough to go beyond racial identification. Even if they are “one percenters and likely to get hammered by taxes.
But when this happens, I got a problem.

Yes, his remarks are extremely racists and I find it very offensive. Perhaps it is time to start bombarding the NFL with demands of his apology and resignation.
Try visiting Columbus, Cincinnati, or Toledo postal facilities....you'd be hard-pressed to find blue eyes, let alone non-Democrats.
Ohio is over-run with inner city tribal parasites, and just as you saw yesterday, the Liberal wins by sheer numbers over the "Flyover Country", aka, the rest of the State.
The fraud in the Cities in the voting is legend.
Lovie Smith is racist. Period. End of story.
Better yet, demand affirmative action. No more than 13% of any team can be black folks. Got to have at least one woman, one Indian, one Asian and a handicapped guy. Make the teams 'look like America'.
Racism is ugly.
Obama: Christian? RACIST!
Smith: Christian? RACIST!
Birds of a feather......Total BS
you have his “back”???
what about his job qualifications and his record?
nothing about that Lovie.
racist
I'm not sure of Dungy's politics, but he's a pretty decent guy IMO.
Lovie stinks if the reason behind his support of Obama is skin color.
What a shock! In other breaking news dog bites man
Black on Black! Back the Pack!
The racist SOB...
If I was supporting someone just because they were white you could rightly call me a honkey cracker. Just saying.
He sucks as a coach and now he has proven he has bad personal judgment as well. I may have to defect to the Packers.
Yet another reason for me to hate the Bears.
Go Pack Go!!!!!
