In response to Obama’s claim that Republicans will use race to stoke fear, Lt. Col Allen West, candidate for Congress in Florida’s 22 District issued this release:

My advice to Senator Obama is to run as a Man and Leader, and the American people will evaluate you as such, not as a victim. This is a Presidential race, based solely on a capacity to lead the United States of America. It is not about skin tone…however, perhaps we should come to expect these immature statements.

It also seems rather humorous that the Presidential candidate who was supposed to be such a “uniter” and transcend race is the one talking about it the most. If Senator Obama was confident in his abilities and character, he would not need to create a crutch for failure. Senator Obama has just tipped his hand, any criticism of him and his policies will be directly attributed to racism. I congratulate Senator Obama for taking race relations in America back some 30 years.

I was especially shocked by the viciousness and misogyny of the “progressives.” They may well have destroyed the Democratic Party.

Obama..the government is broken..elect me to fix the government and all of your problems will be solved.

Hillary Clinton..we are in a shit load of mess and we all have to work to fix it.It will take time, it will take a plan and it will take work.

I think the operative word here is work…not very appealing to young latte drinking liberals.

I guess all thieves talk alike.

Why the Polls Are Skewed toward Obama:

Pathetic Obama
Liar Obama
Loser Obama

This year? I happen to line up with Latinos. LOL* Boy, are we tight!

I laugh because it’s funny how politics pushes you into various beds. I’m more firm on my support now for reasonable immigration than before.

They won my respect in LA.

I will listen to them now over immigration and solutions.

I knew they weren’t nutcases. But I still saw my local community hospital decimated by uninsured patients, my schools spiral down due to the problem, and no help, none, from Bush.

The middle class was sold out, again, for corporate interests, who love the dirt-cheap labor influx.

But my Latino leaders who have emerged in LA get it. They TOO are middle-class.

I will listen to their solutions with a great deal more respect now.

So, in a kind of ironic sense, the race card isn’t all bad.

I would like to thank Barack Obama for injecting racism into my world. For placing a divide where there never was one. I now see myself as a racist when I never was before. I’m tired of the crying foul whenever race is mentioned, even in the most innocuous way. It’s forced me to look at my own environment through a different lens. My clients, indigent from some of the worst neighborhoods in NYC, claim racism has kept them down, poor education, targetting by police, lack of resources and investment in their communities. I believe them. I see it. Most don’t graduate from high school, many see the inside of a jail cell before they see the inside of a college, many have parents who have done drugs, they’ve been in and out of foster care their entire lives. Welfare, Medicaid, food stamps are their primary means of getting through life. They’ve been kept down.

I have more in common with them than Barack Obama.

Obama, with his exclusive private school education in Hawaii, his degrees from Ivy League universities, his extended family — bank president typical white grandma, his international travel as a child — the only thing he has in common with the inner city kid from the ghetto is a jump shot.

Obama has never suffered at the hands of racism. He’s never been kept down by racism. He’s black when it’s convenient. He is an affirmative action candidate.

Thank you Obama. Thank you, I am now a racist.

Did they buy his race card bit?

On Hill’s crime proposal – go to April 11th:

BUT……I do not know of anyone running against her who is truly strong.

Cindy Sheehan….but that will go nowhere.

the difference is that Obambi’s solution was to throw words at every problem, as if that is enough. Then when it wasn’t, he threw people under the bus.

How’s that make believe presidential seal working for you? And the 57 states of Islam, oops, I mean the US. How about the two dead gay people from Obambi’s church? How about Larry Sinclair? when you can answer those questions you might have a reason to be here. otherwise, you are just as foolish as your candidate, and a liar, too.
