OPINION: They Hate Him Because He’s Black

I agree with this article. I found this Tea Bag protest extremely hateful. I was shocked to see those photo’s of those racial signs….all because the likes of Glen Beck, Hannity and Limbaugh. I I fear that this kind of talk and action will step up the likes of hate groups. I am thankful that Homeland Security has put out this alert. I place total blame on those “talking heads”. Putting aside the racial tone of those protests, most of the people do not even understand why they were there. The tax issue the millionaire talking heads used as an excuse for these protests doesn’t even apply the 99.9% of those protesting. The majority of those people were not people who make $250,000 or more. So why were they even protesting? Because the talking heads told them to do it and they did. I will never understand these peoples way of thinking. Barack Obama is now our President and all Americans should be respecting him whether they agree with is policies or not. I am white and worked on the Obama campaign for nearly a year. I fought for him winning the Presidency because I knew he was the right man for the job. His platform and issues were everything I believe in to help America heal and regain our respect again. He has not let me down and he has not let America down. Every day I am so proud of our President but I also am praying harder for his safety every day.

my whole thing is , if the man is doing the right things that the job calls for let him be.i know alot of blacks that were planning on voting for mr.obama.because he was black to me that is not a wise choice i know just as many whites ,if not more who voted for him as well,because he was most qualified AND SEEMED THAT HE WAS THE BEST CHOICE. we need as people to come together more as a nation . the example we send to other countries is not a good one if we fight amongst ourselves .its 2009 for gods sake i was raised differently i guess to give everyone a fair shake .unforntunatly it doesnt always turn out that way.i never even recognized differences until i did prison time where i was taught racism, discrimination and plain hate ,by the black man i was also taught in the same token that if you go through life blaming everybody but yourself for your situation you have become part of the problem. i know many people of color ,,including my lawyer who never used the sorry excuses to keep from empowering himself.he came from a crap neighborhood ,envirement and so forth and look where he is today not unlike so many who learned what the word perseverence means.weve finally got a good man in office ,who ignores all the crap that is thrown at him and is trying to make our country a better place. dont you think we should be giving him our attention instead of giving it to the nincompoops that are starving for it?these idiots want us to complain about the negative attention they throw out. no aknowledgement will hurt them more than anything.
thanks naz

You know what, i wonder what has america come to? Socialism is a good thing, it gives everyone a chance to get a piece of the pie instead of the crust! Before people go on the attack for Obama’s views, look up the facts! In this economy that Bush and his cabinet members (ex: Dick C. and others) we are going to have to spend money and give money in order to get our economy out of this recession and for people to get back on their feet. I don’t understand why people are complaing anyway (i.e: whites). I guess misery really does love comapany since the rich white folks have to pay now! HAHAHA!!
Go Obama, I know it will be a long journey ahead and it may get rough (if it isn’t already), but i believe in you.

How I feel man f#*k the crackers and anybody else that hate.Them d*#k suckin crackers f**k this country up a long time ago.I didnt see all this protesting when bush was in office,f#*king the world up making world war,lying to public,raping the economy blind,bringing war on american soil orchestrating the 9/11 attacks and making dumb ass no thinking crackers think that we have a foriegn enemy when the enemy was right in the white house the whole time.I didnt see any complaining about anything the whole time BUSH has our Armed forces fighting a endless bogus war.Those crackers were to scarred to say s*#t about all that in justice right in there face.But as soon as a Black man steps into office they try and slander him,that is because that is the American way the crackers are use to it hey do it every day on the your local news,everyday when a racist ass police puts on his uniform and brutalizes a black man.White crackers have no fear of persecuting a black man because that is the american way,they know that it is no repercussions when you slander or persecute a black man every since slavery.It still lives on to this day in 2009.

Sorry I mispelled the president’s name! Of course I wanted to say: God bless Obama! … Mea culpa!

ok see it is women like you with a comment like that about all of us non white women striping. I am african american and unlike the very few women you know who are stripping, I don’t do that, I would never think to try it. I have morals and you ms nevaehma4408, need to think before you speak. I really can’t believe how you all think that things are just going to magically get better. It took time for bush to phuck up the country and it just might take that long to straighten the bullish. U are so ignorant to complain about him going to other countries. that is part of his job. Now i have to worry about stupid chicks like you who don’t know what the hell they are talking about. It takes time to fix others mistakes. I ‘ll tell you and every person that thinks like you to learn about the man’s job before you rant over how you haven’t had half the oppourtunities, shyt for that matter i haven’t either, but i am not going complain about it, grow up and please please move on.

white people are truly pathetic. Anytime a cracker has a nickel they hate to see someone black with a dime.
