Breaking news: Obama is half-black
Photoshop: Villainous Company
Psssst.
I’ve got an exclusive. Over the past 20 months, you may not have figured this out yet:
Barack Obama is…
…half-black.
He’s different.
He’s got a funny name.
He doesn’t look like other presidents we’ve had.
And from now until Election Day, if you haven’t figured it out yet — and whether or not you give a damn — Obama’s Democrat operatives will keep regurgitating this vital information while accusing conservatives
of obsessing about it.
Because the race card is all they have left in their deck.
Following on Joe Biden’s “My running mate is a TRANSFORMATIVE BLACK MAN” pitch to North Carolina black voters earlier this week, Kansas Democrat dud governor Kathleen Sebelius was out on the campaign trail attacking Republicans as racists as she harped on Barack Obama’s skin color:
“Have any of you noticed that Barack Obama is part African-American?” Sebelius asked with sarcasm. “(Republicans) are not going to go lightly into the darkness.”
Sebelius was responding to a question from the audience at the Iowa City Public Library about the tenacity of Democrats and whether they would fight for victory as hard as Republicans in the closing weeks of the election.
She did not elaborate on her comment.
Perhaps she’d care to elaborate on the left-wing union leaders who have acknowledged that their rank-and-file are the ones opposing Obama based on race.
Oops. Doesn’t fit the narrative…

Thats the October surprise.
Dogg has a point. Since Latinos will be the majority in about a decade, where do I sign up for my race card?
Cafferty’s quote,
How Cafferty gets there is a no-brainer and an indication of his lack of skill as a political analyst. But then he’s cheerleading and not analyzing. He makes four assumptions; three direct and one implied. At least two are false.
1) Obama wants to change Washington. (Debatable)
2) McCain is a part of Washington (True)
3) [McCain is]a part of the Bush legacy. (False)
4) -Implied-There are no other factors (False)
When your thinking is that simplistic, reaching a simplistic solution (i.e. must be race) is going to follow. Be around a six year old sometime and you see the same analysis in action.
So I hate myself. You must be one those “real men of genius.”
All people wanted to know was whether he referred to himself as black or asian. Most of those questions came from reporters… who is that dominates this market again?
Obama’s a weak candidate and would be if he were orange. You all keep bringing race to the forefront. This isn’t about race!
When is the whole truth going to come out?
Why is ZEROBAMA tanking?
It is not just Sarah, altho she is a big factor.
It IS obama’s unethical and radical socialist views. His infanticide votes.
People know more about obama now than they did last year or even early this year. But most people still don’t know everything.
Snobama hasn’t won anything, hasn’t even had a real debate since his church and pastor,J. GD AMERICA Wright were exposed.
He lost to Hillary every time after that moment and has been sliding ever since.
It is the fact that barack and michelle obama are BLACK LIBERATION THEOLOGIST RADICALS and only about 2% of Americans think like that. His ‘blackness’ gets him many votes and his far left views some more, but if all Americans knew all about barry’s true moral fabric, he wouldn’t be on any ticket…outside of Chicago.
The trolls are getting desperate. They sound more bitter than usual and their comments are more hinged daily as they face the increasing prospect of defeat. I can’t wait to see their virtual heads explode after their best and brightest are rejected yet again by the American people.
Henceforth, I will refer to THE ONE as “Bu-lack” (that would be buh, as in bull, and lack, as in lacking) Obama….for this is what they who know it all want. I wouldn’t want to disappoint the Chosen One’s apostles…

And here’s some more classis *class warfare” brought to you by Michelle O’s baby daddy, as he declared to his $9 million guests last evening:
The only people who would not see that as elitist snobbery of the worst kind are those who are exactly like him. Contrast the unabashed desire to keep people oppressed (”..who will never see”?? Some message of *hope*
) with the positive message of conservatives that if you are willing to work hard and you act responsibly, you can achieve anything you want.
Shooter,
I pray that given the magnitude of this and the sh!t Obama tried to pull in undermining our negotiations with Iraq, he should be lucky to keep his job as senator. McCain should hammer both of those points home for the rest of the campaign. The republican party has got to get this message out. It is the knock out punch – Obama was wrong on Iraq (tried to undermine his country) and wrong on the economy (sold out the taxpayers for money from lobbyists). McCain called it right on both of the biggest issues facing our country this year.
BO needs to make up his mind about the direction of his campaign. Neither his skin color nor his funny name will put this country back on track. Until he comes out with a plan, all his musings are simply “lipstick on a pig”.
Oops. “Classic class warfare”.
*oops*
But since McCain/Palin are the better qualified ones you are going to vote for them. Right?
Obama may be half black, but he is totally wrong on every issue. That is what matters in this contest.
I am not half anything. I am full sick of the race players that represent the typical blacks and the democrap party that perpetuate their victimhood status at the expense of the silent majority.
Sharpton, Jackson, Sebellius the baby killer guv, nyk can all go straight to their euphoric black liberation land from which they seek. These people long ago forgot what Dr King wanted as soon as the welfare checks started rollin’!
I just read lgm’s brilliant comment.
If there were two equally qualified candidates running (one black, one white; one male, one female) I would still do what I’m doing now… choose my candidate based on values and history and the things that matter when electing someone to lead the country. Race and gender are incredibly superficial reasons to choose a president. That is like making your decision based upon which candidate is a dog person and which one prefers cats. Does that affect their leadership!?
That Photoshop is priceless!
Aren’t liberals the ones who are always chanting about a colorblind society? Why then are they doing the most to prevent that from becoming reality? If we constantly obsess over race and single people out by their skin color (even if it is for a positive distinction), are we actually working toward colorblindness?
This “Post-Racial” Candidate twice chose the site of an historical Race Riot as the location from which to announce important campaign decisions.
Kathleen Sebelius is a closet racist for saying that. In addition she has smeared “Republicans” as a group. That would be prejudice.
Now.
How about 1/8 vs. 1/2 if you want to be accurate.

Obama Nation: Using Racism In Order To Form A More Socialist Union
Barack does want to bring change to Washington. He wants to change Congress into the Politburo. To that change I say “Thanks, but no thanks”.
All of this analysis by the media concluding we are racists reminds me of a famous UFO author from the 60’s: Erik von Danniken (sp?). He looked at every unusual event and, in every case, would say:
Well, we don’t know why Americans are rejecting Obama, so it must be racism. Now, there’s insight and analysis for you!
If you don’t want to be labled a racist, just say you are voting for Obama, but when you get into the voting booth, vote for the one who is actually qualified to be President…John McCain. Your ballot is secret. No one will ever know!
The only ones talking about race are Obama and the dimwits. Their proposition is “vote for Obama even though he’s an inexperienced socialist to prove you are not a racist.”
Wait, isn’t he also half-WHITE?
Vote for the Hero and not the Zero.
Another ludicrous ass.
A rejection of Obama can only mean one of two things: a rejection of the 1960s formulation of liberalism (the current formulation, alas) or that America is deeply racist. Too many of them will go for the second hypotheses.
Too many think that elections turn on identities, not ideas.
If Obama loses–and it is still a big ‘if’–too many liberals will fail to heed the message that voters have been sending them since 1981. Seventy percent of the country is tired of 1960s liberalism. Indeed many find the hippie vision frightening: A country too ashamed of itself to fight its enemies, too unsure of itself to praise its own history,govern its children or corral its criminals,and too resentful of the rich to allow the economy to make more of them.
Found this at HA Headlines. Read the whole thing, it is spot on.
What if Obama loses? by Richard Miniter
If Obama loses, the left is going to have a huge collective freak out. It will make 2000 and 2004 look mild.
On that whole, “what if he loses” thing, there are real threats of violence in the streets, akin to the LA riots after the acquittal in the Rodney King beating.
Mob attitude begs mob activity.
But of course that will be America’s fault for tolerating slavery, you know, before all those men & women died to end slavery.
I understand the Dems already have an army of lawyers standing by to contest election results. If you can’t win fairly, cheat.
I don’t give a fuzzy bunnies tail what color he is,
the fact that he is a CHICAGO DEMOCRAT WITH A HELPING OF MARXIST TERRORISM IN HIS EMPTY SUIT is what I care about.
Lan astaslem!
Actually, no. They used to be for the idea — back when Martin Luther King was the figurehead of the civil rights movement and not Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton — but in the era of liberal “identity politics,” a colorblind society is anathema to them.
It’s the conservatives who still hold onto the now quaint notion of, “Not by the color of their skin but the content of their character.”
Time for Change: Race quotas for office of the president!
Will you look at that “30 pcs of silver” claims they are black – that was cute, nice try.
I can only bet how you’re received by all people of color everywhere on this planet when you tell them you support Geoge Bush.
He could be purple and still be a Card Carrying Elitist Snob. He’s not disliked for his color, he’s disliked because of his attitude and extremely flawed character. And the fact that everything that happens he squeals “Racist!!!” when it has nothing to do with race, makes him that much more intolerable.
He’s creating racists where none exist.
And then as if he can read people’s minds he decides that any white person who is against him is against him because he’s half-black, rather than because he’s a complete idiot.
Barack Obama is NOT part African-American, he’s part Kenyan, since it seems to matter so much to Gov Kathleen Sebelius. Exactly what has that got to do with job experience or ability – unless you’re a RACIST PIG Gov Kathleen Sebelius.

The purpose of a President is not to make some sort of social statement. Nor is the purpose of the President to be a celebrity. The job of the President is to preside over this nation (thus, the word President). Obama’s race is immaterial (except, apparently, to the DNC who keeps bringing it up).
You have basically said here that all other things equal, you’d grant preferential treatment to Obama due to his race. You know what that is? It’s blatant discrimination.
She is black.
A propos…
“Not One Or The Other”
So it’s impossible for me to disagree and not vote for Senator Obama simply because I disagree with his positions on damn’ near everything without being a racist? Are you stoned or stupid?
Untrue. The first time I was him was when he was three on the Mike Douglas Show. He was a cute kid, and, despite what my children will tell you, I’ve never given crap to a 3 year old. Put the doobie down!
So it’s not about issues, it’s about Senator Obama being a “person of color?” Who’s a racist, again? Let’s review:
1. I disagree with Senator Obama on the meaning of the Second Amendment and what constitutes “reasonable regulation.”
2. I disagree with Senator Obama on the threat to the nation posed by terrorism and on how we should respond to that threat.
3. I disagree with Senator Obama on our policy in regards to the current deployment of our forces in Iraq.
4. I disagree with Senator Obama on taxation and defy him to explain how raising the taxes on the “wealthy” and corporations won’t affect the middle class. If they get taxed, the cost gets passed on and jobs get eliminated and government income from taxes decreases.
5. Senator Obama associates with known domestic terrorists, corrupt politicians, and race-baiting radical “religious” figures. Of course, coming out of the Daley political machine in Chicago might have an impact on my opinion of him.
I’m not a racist, a$$hole. I’m an American.

And everyone who doesn’t vote for McCain is a Marxist.
As a white guy, I’m ever curious about what makes a person “black” in the eyes of the black community. They clearly consider “half blacks” (Obama, Halley Berry, etc.) to be “black” — at least when they generally agree with their politics or are a total babe. But there are exceptions: Derek Jeter’s father is black, but I never hear him identified as “black.” What about one-third black? If Obama was one-third or one-quarter black, would he be considered a “black” candidate?
I was going to say “choice of sport” but you don’t hear a lot about Jason Kidd being black, either. Hrm.
Can I ask a sincere question of any “half-black” people here or people with “half-black” children? Why does the identification lean toward black? I would think there would be insult to one of the parents for the children to identify with one race and not the other. For Barack Obama, identifying as black is ignoring the heritage of his mother and the grandparents who raised him.
And this doesn’t just occur with black and white people. The native Hawaiian movement has been seemingly been courting all people with any percentage of Hawaiian heritage. Never mind the white, Asian, etc. heritage.
How does this work? Is there a specific guideline to all of this?
And yet I remember hearing Mariah Carey being called a black woman frequently, even though it appears that she was raised by her Irish mother.
I’d love to move past racial and ethnic differences if only the Mad Libs would let me. How much do I owe you, 30 pcs?
hey igm, see you made bail!
have you had to register as a sex offender yet?
Your racism and intolerance really doesn’t have any place here. My apologies if you can’t handle the fact that managed to wander off the plantation. But it’s true, I’m black and Republican.
Firstly, I don’t know all people of color everywhere on this planet. Secondly, if you have logic and principles on your side… you win every time.
You’ve got to be kidding – this is what passes for open-mindedness these days?
Overheard at O’s Headquarters/bunker:
Barry: We can’t get ahead in the polls…and my telly ain’t working right…Need arugula…brain power failing…
Lacky #1: Use cue-cards..or have some guy in the crowd ask you some “easy” questions…
Lacky#2: Ask Bill and Hill to help on the campaign trail…ohhh, we pissed them off during the primaries…
Michelle O: DAMN IT BARRY…PLAY THE RACE CARD, YOU FOOL….
Barry: But my momma and my grandma were White??
Michelle and Lackeys: THAT’S IT, WE’LL PLACE THE RACE CARD…GET THE MEMO OUT TO THE MINIONS TO PAY THE RACE CARD…
Barry: Michelle, can I go to Hollywood and raise some money…I only have $1.42 of my allowance left…
Tiger is the only celeb that I’ve seen who hasn’t fallen into this trap. It was all people could talk about; does he identify himself as asian or black. He flat out told them and I am paraphrasing – to deny my asian heritage is to deny my mother and I could never do that. End of story. For the most part many entertainers if they identify more with their white/asian side, it means they aren’t proud of their black heritage. Which could be the death knoll for entertainers. Considering the industry is all about image – I’m sure it’s to their benefit to promote these people that way.
I’m black and my husband is white. I pray that we raise our kids the right way so that they avoid pitfalls such as this.
You know the drill. 40 acres and mule.
how about 160 acres and lgm in harness?
Queef, queef, queef.

That will be 160 acres, please.

30 pcs (#155):
I’ll just find some day laborers to do it for me.
I finally get your moniker.
CO2,
Ha! Good stuff.
You could have just asked.
I figured you had your reasons, 30 pcs. Sorry, race never occurred to me. Shame on me to the sixth and seventh generations of my offspring, if I ever have any.
CO2,
Which comment are you responding to?
I’m confused.
I had my reasons for what? Race doesn’t have anything to do with the moniker.
No need for shame.
Now I’m confused. Ach.
-awkward pause-
I guess I don’t get your moniker, after all. My mouth is looking forward to the taste of my foot.
Mmnumnum. Thish foop tayshh goob.
My self-deprecating skills are top-notch. My other skills, not so much.

Thirty pieces of silver refers to the price Judas (humanity) placed on Jesus Christ’s life. It is the amount Judas received for betraying Jesus. I hope this helps.
Who is “Inspired” to “Bring an Empire to its Knees”?
What is his agenda?
30 pcs (#172): Oh, I knew that. I just assumed there was a personal significance in the name you took that was related to the “you must not question your predestined ideology” theme, like what Michelle encountered the other day. Say no more.
Have a nice day, 30 (it feels a little odd referring to someone as a number
).
Oh no… nothing more than that.
Have a nice day, CO2 (Or a chemical formula).
My parents (legally) entered this country years before I was born and always, always told us…”you are 1/2 Spanish and 1/2 English, but never forget that you are 100% American and if we’d had it great where we started, we wouldn’t have come here. You have no idea how lucky you are to be born in this wonderful country.”
Guess what happened… I grew up actually loving my country. My first language is English. I have voted in every election since I was 18 years old. During the Olympics I cheer for the American teams.
Somehow I really don’t think Obama loves this country the way I do. John McCain does. Obama would certainly hurt the U.S. if it gained him something,because he never learned to love the place. John McCain has honor on his side. He is a good man and we are a good country.
Thanks mommy and daddy.
