DUmmy numbersBravo, another of the DUmp's handful of America-hating phony soldiers, has discovered why people dislike the jug-eared muslim:

Someone convince me that it's a ****ing coincidence that the moment an African-American man ...
assumed the Presidency; calls to "take back OUR country", and the refusal to pass measures that have been routinely rubber-stamped for decades became the norm. And, oh yeah, those posters of the President in white face, and descriptions of him as a "halfrican", and photoshops of a watermelon patch on the White House lawn, and shouts of "You lie" during a Presidential address? That has nothing to do with the color of his skin. Stop being so sensitive and quit playing the race card.
And then what to make of a Democratic President of the United States being routinely referred to as a "sellout", a "corporate whore", a "Republican" and worse, on what many consider to be the premier Democratic website on the web; all of this before the assumptions which engendered those accusations have become a reality.
Then, as an added bonus, that same President's supporters, on that same allegedly Democratic website, are regularly labeled "Kool-Ade drinkers", "blind hero-worshipers", "sycophants", and more.
But it couldn't have anything to do with race, could it? After all, we're better than that.

11. I don't think the claim of playing the race card is due the OP saying that
their is racism in America. I think it was due to trying to say that criticism of the President and his policies here on DU is based on racism as opposed to genuine disputes about what is in the best interest of the country and the party.

17. Oh,please.
What a "silly" thing to say.
The amount of racism in American society remains high. And that absolutely includes much of the negative shit said about President Obama.

3. I think it is mostly due to the fact he was born in Kenya and isn't a citizen.
And don't forget he was born and raised in the filthy, bloodthirsty muslim cult.
Poor, stupid Beth is turning on the Kenyan. Since Yugo can't run, and will probably be dead by November 2012 anyway, we have a good chance of winning her vote. Unfortunately, it's not likely we'll carry California, even with a Republican Beth Ferrari:

5. I call out racism as much as anyone at DU and your OP is full of it.
There are plenty of legit criticisms of Obama to be made and they are not limited to criics at a largely white community by any means. Go look up the unemployment stats in the black community and use your google to follow that thread.

10. Baloney. The same criticisms are being made of Obama
in the black press. What this thread shows is that none of you read it.
If poor, stupid Beth comes out in favor of the Republican ticket we will have to reconsider whether she's still the DUmbest person on all the internets.

9. The level of contempt for the man not just his policies is telling. Race has a lot to do with it IMO.
Yeah, hate to see that contempt for the man. I remember eight years of Texaphobia, during the years W was successfully
protecting us from the muzzies, while leading a period of unprecedented prosperity. Even though he piled up mountains of dead
muzzies, the DUmp democrats hated him.
The hatred at the DUmp had to be Texaphobic racism.

12. On DU it is not due to racism, it is because the President himself has acknowledged that SS and
Medicare are on the table.
There are also other things that make progressives upset, and again, hard for some to believe, it also has nothing to do with racism either
For instance, there is no clear end in site for our presence in Iraq and Afghanistan. Now some may disagree and say there is an end in sight, and that is a legitimate debate, however because someone may see it differently does NOT make that person a racist
The same argument you are accusing those at "allegedly Democratic websites", without having the guts to name those sites, is the same generalization you are implying about them.
There are legitimate complaints about this administration from progressives that have NOTHING to do with racism, and to equate those at progressive sites with the same brush as those who are racists is nonsense
You can't be a racist unless you are a Republican.

14. Obviously the racial examples you gave are plain aand[sic] simple racism.
But I don't believe the shouts of "You Lie", take back our country, and the tantrums ove[sic] the deficit and increasing the debt ceiling are racialy[sic] motivated. those[sic] I think are because he's a Dem. They're getting bolder and bolder with their outrageous statements & lies about anyone or anything that doesn't fit their own views.
As a lifelong strong Democrat, I've said many times "we need to take our country back" and my intentions are always directed to the corporations that seem to have taken over our entire government for their own benefit and screw everyone eles[sic].
Think about how they treated Bill Clintion. I don't think he was in office an entire month when they began trying to get him thrown out by any means necessary.
Well, Carole, he was a corrupt felon, who was impeached and should have been removed from office. If that had happened, algore would have been an incumbent, and W would probably have never been president. How 'bout them apples, you DUmb, illiterate moonbat?

15. I really like when I see someone try to say racism is not involved here
Immediately know I have spotted another one at that point.
You can't fool old DUmbass Don.
