10. Bill Cunningham

Cunningham is one of the original conservatives to popularize the use of Obama’s middle name. When he first did it at a McCain event, McCain apologized for him, but would eventually let other members of his staff use it for events. Cunningham has referred to Obama as a Manchurian candidate and said that Obama ‘wants to gas the Jews.’ Cunningham would also compare Obama to Mao, Castro and Russian communists saying, “Much like Castro took over Cuba, Mao Zedong took over Red China, and the Communists took over Russia, Obama now is poised, according to many of my good friends on the left like Paul Mason and others, to seize power in America, and I hope to be a bloodless coup.”

9. Ann Coulter

On Fox News, Ann Coulter referred to Barack Obama as B. Hussein five times in two minutes and said “his first big accomplishment (was) being born half-black.’ She has also compared him to Hitler, calling his book, Dreams From My Father a ‘dimestore Mein Kampf’ and called him a socialist who wants to surrender.

8. Jesse Jackson

Jesse Jackson wound up crying when Barack Obama won. However, after Barack Obama gave a speech on Father’s Day, telling black men to be more responsible for their kids, Jesse though he was talking down to black people. He reiterated that sentiment to another guest while appearing on Fox News with harsh language, saying “Barack be talking down to n****rs, I want to rip his nuts off.” I do believe that Jackson just had a disagreement with Obama that Fox News decided to make public, but still, wanting to rip Obama’s nuts off gives him a spot in our Top 10.

7. John McCain:

Despite pledging to run a clean campaign, John McCain ran the dirtiest campaign in Presidential history. By October, 100% of all of McCain’s ads were negative. McCain’s attack ads compared Obama to Britney Spears and Paris Hilton, attempted to tie him to Williams Ayers and Tony Rezko and claimed he wanted to teach sex ed to kindergartners. In the debates McCain showed his disdain for Barack Obama by never looking him in the eye and referring to him as ‘that one.’

6. Bill Clinton

When asked why it took two Clintons to beat Obama, Bill Clinton responded, “Jesse Jackson won South Carolina in ‘84 and ‘88. Jackson ran a good campaign. And Obama ran a good campaign here.” No one had mentioned Jackson, so it came off like, ‘yeah blacks can win South Carolina but Obama, like Jesse Jackson, he never really is going to have a shot.’ Clinton also claimed that Obama’s Presidential bid was a ‘fairy tale.’ Well guess what Bill? Fairy tales do come true.

5. Pastor Manning

While Obama had the overwhelming support of the black religious community, there were a few haters. Pastor Manning has called Obama a ‘house negro,’ ‘pimp’ and ‘long legged mack daddy. Manning has also attacked Obama’s late mother, calling her ‘trash,’ for sleeping with a black man and saying, “Generally the most noble of white society choose not to intercourse sexually with African men. So it’s usually the trashier ones who make their determinations that they’re going to have sex.”

4. Rush Limbaugh

Rush Limbaugh attacked Barack Obama’s racial background, making a song Barack the Magic Negro, called him a halfrican American and said that Obama was Arab and not Black, seeing how his father was from from the Arab part of Africa(Kenya is less that 2% Arab). Limbaugh also organized operation chaos, urging supporters to vote for Hillary to extend the democratic primaries and bruise up Obama and repeatedly referred to Obama as Osama.

3. Sarah Palin

Sarah Palin took to her moniker, Pitbull with Lipstick, and began to take a bite out of Obama from her first speech at the RNC convention in August, belittling his experience as a community organizer. Palin would go on the campaign trail, inspiring millions of American with her Obama hate, accusing him of palling around with terrorists, and questioning his relationship with former pastor, Reverend Wright. During campaign speeches, crowd members would yell things like ‘kill him, he’s a terrorist, off with his head’ and Palin didn’t blink an eye, giving the silent approval of the statements.

2. Bill O’Reilly

Bill O’Reilly got into a shoving match with an Obama aide in early January and called the aide a son of a bitch. He later threatened to call in the lynch mob on Michelle Obama because of her ‘unpatriotic comments’ and called Obama a socialist and a communist on The View. Obama would later show his metal by dealing with his hater face to face in a very testy interview with O’Reilly.

1. Sean Hannity

Sean Hannity spent the whole election season using his program as one big negative campaign ad against Obama. He called Obama’s church a cult, called him racist, attacked Michelle Obama as angry and bitter and harshly criticized Obama’s ties to Reverend Wright, ACORN and William Ayers. He ran a series on his program called Obama an Friends: A History of Radicalism, which was one long negative smear campaign against Obama and had gave renowned anti-Semite, Andy Martin, a platform to bash Obama.

    All of this stuff about Obama and what he does is killing! Can the man just be the president. He can’t even go to a show with Michelle without being criticized. Sooo Bush stayed home all day with Laura and played with a race track(maybe he did) or did nothing which i doubt. Im sure Bush spent more money(tax money) to do meaningless activities. So Obamas actions cannot be judge without looking at past presidents similar actions or worst actions. Watergate? The stained black dress? Bush, 9/11, and the war(hat trick). All these screw ups from past presidents, yet the media pays more attention to Obama for menial things and waiting for him to stumble. I was told as a black leader when i was VP of a student organization, “everything you do will be criticize” and that statement claims truth with Obama as a president who happens to be black.

    Who is Pastor Manning??? The type of leader who is difficult to take seriously… according to him I guess we would have been better off by keeping Bush in office?

    Obama is bush and cheney cousin. With a british blood line tied to royalty. Why does all these other countries no this and ours doesnt. Bush is his 11th cousin and cheney is his 8th. Cheney said he might expect to see dude at the family reunion. I trust none of this mutha fuccas at all. F**k what they sayin bout dude. Yall reppin just because of skin color. Time will tell if dude was elected for the right choices points and views. And dude didnt win cause he had more votes. He won because his blood line is tied to british royalty. Same as every president who has been elected in the united states. Open yall eyes and notice more then just skin and words coming from ones mouth. Get right.Now if im hating. So be it. At least I on dudes nuts just because he half black.

    Its crazy that here in 2008 that the color of a mans skins can determine his fate still today. It is a shmae that we concentrate on a mans skin color instead of what put OBAMA where he is today and that is his wit. If you look at it we all have the same color brain. Which is pink. Which means that at the end of the day what really matters is that which is inside a person, like their heart,mind body and soul. That is why I voted for Obama is because I looked pass his skin color and really look to see what type of man that he is. That is one that is pure in his heart and deciated to his family, and that which is best for them. I think that is what we need in the White House someone who has everyone best interest in mind. He is a Family man and all for the right things. So if you got all these haters around its okay because at lest theyre thinking about him. And lets all remember that no one likes a pure hearted person that is for the right things. Lets take these HATERS and use them as motivers.
    Thats what I say.

    All this mess they sayin because of a black man becoming president . The only one i see that didn’t really put out so much against Obama was Clinton. But, the rest are all some BS because of the fact thatit’s a BLACK man in the president office. And he is going to Do more and a greater accomplishment than the others. That is why they do all that mess against him. Because if they do it will be shown of the power that a black man has. They have been seeing our power for hundreds of years but, don’t want us to bring it out. Because we will overcome them. What they don’t want to let anyone of us know is that we started out on top. The first world ruler was not white, latin, jewish, or any thing else. He was a BLACK man. And people used his named as an insult.. His name was Nimrod. It is all part of being on top. The more they come out against you, its not the portrayal of him not being able to change the us. But, they know what he can and will do. And when it does happen they know there will be more blacks out in office doing more and even greater things. This is just like with exercise. The more weight against you the stronger you get. So the more they try to go against you the stronger you become in all the accomplishments you make while they are against you. Welcome the insults with a smile and a hug because they are digging their own grave for their high and mighty look in the mirror. And know tha ti’m right behind you all the way. This the Prince OF Egypt.
