Let me get this clear in my mind. If you are wary of strangers on the street that makes you a “typical white person.” Does this mean that only white people are wary of strangers on the street? Actually I learned to “watch my back” in Chicago many years ago. And I taught my racially mixed children to watch their backs too. Is that how being wary of strangers is bred into white people? But wait, my children aren’t white so they can’t be wary of strangers. Maybe I should just wait for the expert on race relations Barack Obama to explain all this to me….

My City Councilmember (AA) was quoted in the local paper saying he hoped white people never moved into his neighborhood. My State Senator (AA) knowing he was being filmed, while attending a protest of illegal immigrants demanding drivers licenses was yelling repeatedly, “Whitey’s goin’ down.” My School Board rep (AA) only accepted my call because I have the same first name as a Black Panther activist & he voiced his disappointment upon finding out I was not who he initially thought… & went on to address me as “you people”. I interpreted all of the above as racist & unfortunately rather commonplace. Having really thought about it, I do NOT think Obama’s phrase “typical white person” is racist. You diminish your own argument with this type of intense nitpicking. But, hey, you’re just doin’ the dirty work necessary to continue the dynasty of the first “real” Black President.

Don’t discount the idea that this is what Barack believes deep down. This is the crux of Jeremiah Wright’s teaching and preaching.

Folks, Obama hasn’t been attending that church, placing himself under the spiritual/political guidance (they are the same at TUCC) of Jeremiah Wright for 20 years without buying into it to some degree. This is probably what Barack Obama believes.

Things “slip out” when you are under stress.

As long as they don’t ask him any questions he’d be fine. No scrutiny: that’s all he needs to “win!”

Here’s the full story: a panhandler attacked her and she was very much terrified afterwards, pleading with her husband to get a ride to work. Her husband told their grandson, Barack, that she was only scared because the violent panhandler was black. My God, this is a poor elderly woman and her husband and grandson felt more sympathy for the perp than her.

But, but, but…he can always give one of his great, Hopeful speeches and make it all better! That’s been his Modus Operandi to date.

I think his so-called passionate words are wearing thin these days, in light of the hate monger and racist Wright’s sermons. I think Mr. Hope has finally been exposed…..at least to THIS “typical white person” he has been exposed. My eyes are wide open. They were opened in SC when they Swiftboated the Clintons.

He is beginning to really display his self-destructive side. This weakness would not be good in the WH. People will begin to disrespect him for this and consider him a loser.
