Okay, I’ll admit it: I’m prejudiced!

Prejudiced? Well of course I’m prejudiced. Everybody’s prejudiced. The only difference is that my prejudices are the correct ones and everybody else’s are the wrong ones.

Now don’t tell me it’s bad to have prejudices. My God, if you don’t have prejudices, it means you don’t have values and standards. And if you don’t have values and standards, you’re good for nothing as far as I’m concerned and you’re just using up valuable space on this planet.

Anyone who has values and standards about what’s good or bad, right or wrong, automatically has prejudices. If you do not like anything that lives up to your standards and values, that’s prejudice.

Among my prejudices are people who use expressions like “yeah, right” and call people “dude”. People whose favorite term of abuse is “douchebag”. People who use the “f” word indiscriminately. People who use bad language. All of these, of course, are characteristics common among the Obama supporters who spam Youtube with their silly, prejudiced messages. Just have a look at their comments and see for yourself.

Some people might think that I’m prejudiced against Obama because of the color of his skin. That’ is simply not true. I don’t mind the color of anyone’s skin provided they share the same cultural and spiritual values as me. But anyone who hangs around with Bill Ayres, Louis Farrakhan, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright or Khalid al Mansour does not share my cultural and spiritual values.

I am also prejudiced against Obama because he has lied about his associations with these people, just as he has lied about what he can do for this country. Of course, he is not exactly the first politician to lie. And he won’t be the last. There are a lot of them about. Barney Frank, for example.
While I am not prejudiced against religions in general, I am prejudiced against religions that want to kill anyone who doesn’t believe as they do. I guess my taste in religion is prejudiced towards the gentler religions like traditional Christianity, Buddhism and Sufism.

What about my other prejudices? Well, I don’t necessarily mind people who are arrogant. Some people call me arrogant, which just shows how the term can be misused. I also don’t mind people who are ignorant and stupid. Oops, do I mean intellectually challenged? No I don’t. Come to think of it, that’s another prejudice of mine: political correctness. I think it’s carried too far. Or is it just because I am “culturally challenged”? Anyway, while I don’t mind people who are ignorant, stupid or arrogant, I am prejudiced against people who combine ignorance and stupidity with arrogance.

Like a lot of Obama supporters.
Of course, like any sane person I am prejudiced against Keith Olbermann. How could anyone not be prejudiced against such a bigoted blowhard?

And what person in their right mind could not be prejudiced against the Great Political Whore of Babylon, otherwise known as Arianna Huffington, or the Beast With No Name, whose name, as you might have gathered, is never mentioned on my channel?
As you might have noticed from one of my other videos, I am prejudiced against people who use third world orphans as fashion accessories. The same goes for people who use dogs for the same purpose, whether poodles or pit bull terriers.
You might also have noticed from my anti-rap rap video, I am prejudiced against people who wear their baseball caps sideways or back to front. For one thing it’s such a dreary cliche. Secondly, it’s an offense to the eye to see so many clones walking the streets. It’s a blot on the landscape.
If God wanted you to wear your cap sideways, he would have created a baseball cap with a logo on the side. If he wanted you to wear your cap backwards, he would have put the logo on the back.

Except that then of course it would be the front.

Anyway, the logo is always above the bill, so that’s the part that is supposed to be worn at the front.
To tell the truth I’m not all that keen on baseball caps anyway.

In my next video I will have more to say about prejudice. In the meantime I will leave you with this conclusion: There is nothing wrong with prejudice, as long as it is MY prejudice.

Anyone who is against me because of my prejudices is being intolerably intolerant and displaying the worst kind of prejudice imaginable.

  • http://donolectic.wordpress.com Donolectic

    If you disagree with someone who supports someone other than Obama, it means that you obviously think that they’re racists and thinking that they’re racists makes you a bad person. Obama thinks that anyone who doesn’t support him is a racist and this makes him unqualified for the White House.

    Don’t forget that blacks will only vote for their own which explains the percentage of the black vote that went for Clinton and Kerry as well as Alan Keyes’ continued success at running for higher office. If a black person votes for another black person, they’re racist. If a white person votes for a white person, this does not make them racist, but if they vote for a black person it’s because of white guilt. And exposing actual racists is elitist.

    Please make a note of it.

    Fantastic video! I’m prejudice also. I’m prejudice against anyone that thinks it’s ok to reach in my wallet and take what they like, but it’s not ok when it’s done to them. I’m prejudice against anyone that tries to tell me what to think. How to live, but it’s not ok when it’s done to them. I’m prejudice against anyone that claims to be one thing when in reality they’re quite another. I’m prejudice against anyone that is a hypocrite and uses religion as a tool to further their own agenda. It’s one thing to disagree with some of the teachings of your religion/church and to say so. It’s quite another to try to twist the teachings of that religion/church to fit your agenda knowing you’re in the wrong.

    If a black person votes for another black person, they’re racist. If a white person votes for a white person, this does not make them racist,

    Not necessarily–in either direction. Those who support Oblockhead are mainly just plain stupid. It has nothing to do with guilt or race. And some are voting against Oblockhead because he is black, which is just as stupid. For me, the man is unfit, unqualified, and dangerous. Every other attribute pales in comparison. When people ask me why I’m voting for McCain, that is exactly what I tell them.

  • Ferd McBerfle

    Claiming that “if you don’t vote for Obama you are racist” is racist.

    That issue is a diversion created by the obamalobotobots and Oblockhead himself. I never respond to it because it is entirely irrelevant. He is unfit, unqualified, and dangerous. Nothing else matters. That is the argument that leaves the bots completely befuddled.

    Life of the New Party
    A redistributionist success story.

    By Stanley Kurtz

    A variety of evidence now indicates, with a high degree of likelihood, that Barack Obama was a member of the far-left New Party, which also endorsed him in his first run for the Illinois state senate in 1996. Obama’s New party ties graphically illustrate the connection between his troubling “associations” and the core economic issues of the presidential campaign. The New Party’s agenda was radically redistributionist. More important, the New Party’s specific strategy for achieving its economic goals precisely paralleled Obama’s now infamous 2001 radio remarks on “major redistributive change.” So let’s take a tour of New Party ideology, after which we can explore the ever-increasing evidence that Obama himself was in fact a New Party member.

    I know I want to vomit every time I see his lying scum face. Let’s see, I am prejudice, I am prejudice against anyone that would sit in a church for 20 years saying G D America and the US of KKKA and that on September 11th, the worst day in America, he would say that our chickens have come home to roost, yet this lying scum says he NEVER knew, Ok so either he is a liar or a moron.
    Yes I am prejudice, I am prejudice against someone who would be buddies with a guy that tried to blow up the Pentagon and NY Police Headquarters, who said on 9/11 that he regrets not doing more.
    Yes I am prejudice, I am prejudice against someone who would sit at goodbye dinner for a man who is for the destruction of Israel, worked with the PLO, and this is all on tape yet we can’t see it, yes us Americans cannot view the tape, Why, why if its such an innocent tape how come we can’t see it.
    Yes I am prejudice, I am prejudice against someone who wants to take money out of the pockets of hard working Americans to give it to lazy people who don’t want to work, or can’t find work, THAT’S WELFARE. Small businesses will die, so people like me who can’t find work right now, will NEVER find work because they will not hire me. I WANT to work, I send resumes everyday, and NO ONE calls me, why, because they want cheap labor, I can’t find a job that pays 15-20 bucks an hour even though I have the skills, and if you know who becomes President, small businesses will bail so fast the unemployment rate will skyrocket to 20 percent.
    Yes I am prejudice, I am prejudice against someone who talks about “being my brother’s keeper” yet his own half-brother is living in squalor on a dollar a month and we find out yesterday his own aunt is living in a slum in Boston. Didn’t the great Michelle Obama say during the primaries “If you can’t take care of your own house, how can you be expected to take care of the White House” My point exactly, never thought I would agree with the woman.
    Yes I am prejudice, I am prejudice against someone who who uses a fradulent group ACORN to steal this election, I thought we lived in a country where elections were SUPPOSED to be fair, apparently the dead can vote, so can the homeless(by using a park bench as an address), children, animals, and disney characters, they can all vote, so will we have fair elections, NO OF COURSE NOT and why, because this guy gave over 800,000 to this group and I say that lightly, so I guess he just threw the U.S Constitution out the window, why not, he already threw out the 1st amendment and pretty soon the 2nd amendment.
    So yes, bottom like, I am prejudice, against utter stupidity which is this election. Never in my life could I ever imagine seeing this fraud in the White House, never and I hope to God this nightmare ends and we see a TRUE hero who will help make this country better in John McCain and Sarah Palin, they LOVE this country, Obama wants to DESTROY it

    I especially like this part because it is at the core of what is wrong with Obama and his supporters. It is simply about winning and being in control. It has nothing to do with what is right, what is good or what is best for this country.

    God Bless America and God Bless John McCain and Sarah Palin

    OH THANK YOU THANK YOU

    THe line about Arianna Huffington had me howling! Much needed comic relief.

    I do want to nitpick one thing you said.. which was that Sufism was peaceful. If you’re an infidel there is nothing more peaceful about the Sufis than any other Muslim. They still have the same war regulations in place that the rest of Islamdom has. They will perform their duty to engage in war against non-believers when the lawful order is given by the Caliph. Luckily for us today there is no Caliphate. But when there is one in the future… all Muslims must put themselves in his service.

    Here is some more info on Sufis:

    I would also like to touch on the point of the schools of Islamic jurisprudence. In terms of Sufism, for example, it remains a bit of mystery why this sect of Islam is constantly portrayed as being non-violent and tolerant when the history of the Sufis is actually one of violent jihad. The jihad in Chechnya is a prime example.

    Also, Sufism is an order, a way of mysticism, not a school of Islamic jurisprudence. Moreover, the pioneering Sufi, Al-Ghazali, was clear that his Sufism did not negate his support for Islamic supremacism. Andrew Bostom has published this quote from Al-Ghazali:

    “[O]ne must go on jihad (i.e., warlike razzias or raids) at least once a year…one may use a catapult against them [non-Muslims] when they are in a fortress, even if among them are women and children. One may set fire to them and/or drown them…If a person of the Ahl al-Kitab [People of The Book – primarily Jews and Christians] is enslaved, his marriage is [automatically] revoked…One may cut down their trees…One must destroy their useless books. Jihadists may take as booty whatever they decide…they may steal as much food as they need…[T]he dhimmi is obliged not to mention Allah or His Apostle…Jews, Christians, and Majians must pay the jizya [poll tax on non-Muslims]…on offering up the jizya, the dhimmi must hang his head while the official takes hold of his beard and hits [the dhimmi] on the protruberant bone beneath his ear [i.e., the mandible]… They are not permitted to ostentatiously display their wine or church bells…their houses may not be higher than the Muslim’s, no matter how low that is. The dhimmi may not ride an elegant horse or mule; he may ride a donkey only if the saddle[-work] is of wood. He may not walk on the good part of the road. They [the dhimmis] have to wear [an identifying] patch [on their clothing], even women, and even in the [public] baths…[dhimmis] must hold their tongue…. (From the Wagjiz, written in 1101 A.D.)”

    While I am not prejudiced against religions in general, I am prejudiced against religions that want to kill anyone who doesn’t believe as they do. I guess my taste in religion is prejudiced towards the gentler religions like traditional Christianity, Buddhism and Sufism.

    Well, that’s all nice and everything, but “traditional Christianity” did, in fact, “kill anyone who doesn’t believe as they do”. The early Church, after Constantine made Christianity the State Church of the Empire, waged numerous attacks (even sanctioning outright murder) on those the “true” Church deemed “heretics” (read up on the history of the Arian “heresy” or the later Byzantine-era fight over iconoclasm). During the Crusades, it was an army of Roman Christian Crusaders who committed atrocities against the Eastern Orthodox Church in Constantinople (in fact, the Byzantine Empire sought aid from the Muslim Turks against their Christian “brothers”).
    And, must I remind you of the horrors of the Inquisition? Forcing Jews and Muslims to convert to “the True Faith” at swordpoint (“convert or die”) and then spying on the new converts for decades to root out “secret Jews/Muslims”. Terrorizing millions who followed the “wrong Pope” or dared to think for themselves (maybe the phrase eppur si muove rings a bell?). I won’t even get into the numerous horrors that those “gentle” Christians inflicted upon the people living in pre-Columbian America and on the “dark Continent of Africa” and the way those people were forced to accept Christianity (IMS, the Spanish in Peru were willing to put off Atahualpa’s execution until after he converted to Christianity–instead of burning him at the stake as a “heathen”, the Spanish allowed Atahualpa to be baptized before then garroting him).

    Incidentally, Sufism is regarded by most people as being a part of Islam (a branch which focuses more attention on mysticism, in much the way that Kabbalah is connected to Judaism; there isn’t a separate specific mystic devotion in Christianity but there is a strong mystic tradition in both Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy) even though there are a number of Muslims (especially in the Wahhabbi sect, so prevalent in Saudi Arabia) who believe it’s outside the Muslim tradition.

  • KintheNorthwest

    It is Obama I am against, not his skin color, not his ethicity, not his gender or what ever else you might want to say is being prejudice for not voting Obama.

    I am against Obama because I am tired of his lies and not answering many many questions. If he were any other person he would have been slammed down ages ago for just a few of the things I have mentions below.
    Lies(List is longer than this).
    Obama has lied about his associates/mentors(it not who they are that bothered me it was Obama’s need to lie about them),
    Obama has lied about his upbringing,
    Obama has lied about his policies changing during the campaign (just look at his web site, it got wiped so often I kept wondering if Hoduni was his webmaster)
    Unanswered Questions (list is longer than this)
    Where are your college records
    where is your vaulted Birth Certificate
    Where are your medical records(one page letter from a doctor is not medical records).
    where are your IL senate records

    Sorry I might be prejudice because I dont tolerate liars, but that is my right. I might be prejudice because I want questions answered and answered honestly during an election. But guess what I live in America and it is my right to have certain expectations of America’s elected officials. Obama does not meet my expectations so I did not vote for him.

    The Biblical teachings of Christianity are utterly peaceful. In fact it was the Refomation’s rediscovery of the Bible (with the printing press and literacy) that led to the eventual rolling back of the worst of the abuses the Catholic Church organization and others’.

    SO he’s absolutely correct to sing the praises of traditional Christianity.

    The same can’t be said for Islam. Whereeever Islam is, there you will find people following the example of Mohemmed.. which is to say, out of religious piety, many many people are trying to model their behavior off a violent madman.

    Excellent point McGalt, Master McThrall of Planet McTriskelion

    Wow. Thank you Lee M. Buchwald was a great humorist, so I’m extremely flattered.

    Yes google and Obama have a behind the scenes energy deal worth hundreds of billions of $.Google was paid off by Obama and is looking for huge returns on a new energy intuitive.It will make google one of the richest companies in the world.

  • Steven

    Google’s CEO Eric Schmidt, who recently unveiled a sweeping $4.4 trillion energy plan, will join Presidential candidate Barack Obama’s campaign trail this week to publicly back the Illinois Senator, according to the Wall Street Journal. What a good way to start off a week! I recently wrote an op-ed for the Forbes Energy Genius report that said Obama should consider making Schmidt his chief cleantech officer.

    sorry 4.4 trillion $ google buyout, this prob changed the election being google has almost a virtual monopoly on searches and U-tube cleansing ability.

    Why the Obama Effect is totally different from the Bradley Effect…

    The Bradley Effect was about a traditional style campaign, the only difference being that Bradley was black. People talked about the issues and tried to ignore race.

    This election would have very little to do with race if not for the fact that the Obama Campaign MADE it about race and confrontation. “Get in their faces!”

    Never in my 57 years has a campaign been so blatently racial. People are afraid to talk about the election. Nobody at work ever mentions it. There are barely any yard signs or bumper stickers. I’ve never seen such a hush fall over an election among common people, despite all the noise in the media.

    I think the Obama Effect is all about the racial guilt trip, the intimidation, the threats, the vandalism, and the ugliness of racial accusations.

    The Obama army has stifled civilized debate of the issues by playing the race card continuously. It’s still the elephant in the room, and it’s so totally unnecessary. If they hadn’t played the race card against the Clintons, and so constantly among the bloggers, I don’t think it would be a close election.

    I know the sexism is still a major issue among PUMAs, and I count myself in that group, but I don’t think that is a trump card in this election. I think it’s still about the Wright/Farrakhan stuff, and Michelle’s scowling attitude. I don’t worry so much about the Dems in charge, because I’ve always been in that corner. But I find myself worrying about hidden agendas and mixed loyalties. I don’t want the Executive Branch to be beholden to or even influenced by racial ideologies.

    To be honest, the only thing I found appealing about Obama was that he is African American. I was ready to support him, But, heck, he’s a philosophical mess.

    I’ve said this same thing for many years and no one ever understood what i meant so they disagreed, insisting they aren’t prejudice against anyone (or thing)..

    I yelled bullshit- you associate with ppl who look as good (or as bad) as you… you associate with ppl who are in the same financial spectrum as you, education as you, shares the same prejudices as you, who weighs the same avg weight as you, or is as tall (or short) for the most part-

    religion, pet lover, enviromentalist, athletic (or not) etc… ppl hang with their own type because of their unconscious prejudice against peeps of very dif values and lifestyles—

    everyone has prejudices and it’s comical that ppl don’t see this-

    that’s my 2 cents, now off to have some home made matzo ball soup-

    From Webster Online:
    Prejudice
    an irrational attitude of hostility directed against an individual, a group, a race, or their supposed characteristics

    The key word is irrational. Is it irrational to feel hostile towards someone when that individual is deliberately trying to elicit hostility?

    Thank you FenelonSpoke. And yes, you are welcome to have a crush on me if its unobtrusive.

    I think JozeFAl was responding to the post. And frankly, I found their post interesting and spot on. Religions per se probably don’t persecute, it’s what the followers of that belief choose to do in that religion’s name.
