After nearly four years of Barack Obama, is white America still uneasy with a black man in the WH?

This is the story of a dinner party.

It occurred in a suburban middle-class community — maybe slightly upscale middle class, but not much — just outside one of our big cities. Pretty typical place.

The guests all knew each other. They were neighbors or friends or acquaintances who’d been to these parties many times. They were white, every one, mostly businessmen and their wives, and some engineers who work or once worked in the nearby defense industries.

<snip>

It was about at that point, as the conversation edged warily toward the touchy subject of politics, that one fellow — a bit of a curmudgeon — asked if anybody thought President Obama had not been born in America.

<snip>

For a moment, no one said a thing. People looked at one another. Then a lady who had moved to the area from Virginia raised her hand. “I do,” she said. One by one other hands were raised until it was clear most of guests thought Obama had not been born here.

After 4 years, I still don't give a damn what color 0bama is.

After four centuries, white America is still uneasy with black men anywhere!

I'm sick of this white America bullshit. There is no white America there is only America. The only people who are concerned with one's skin color are the leftists. If you have black skin then you had better vote democrat if not then they want to lynch them. Just look at what they did to Clarence Thomas, and more recently Herman Cain.

MLK would be ashamed at how things are today, he said his dream was to be judged by his character, and not one of these loons on the left do that.  :banghead: :banghead:
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Buttkiss, you're either a very stupid DUmpmonkey, or a mole.
Which one is it?
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

Obama's redness bothers me, not his being black. 

However, Holder being black does bother me because he is basing his actions as Attorney General entirely on his racial identity. Almost everything the DOJ has done under Holder is racially biased.

12. The continuing questions about where he's from despite his birth certificate being public

and the regular comments about him being un-American or not knowing what America stands for lead me to believe that many people in this country don't consider black Americans to be truly American.

Questions about where he's from.
Comments about him being un-American.

It is you Dummy gollygee that attaches negative attitudes about Barack Hussein O'Slapass to the whole black race.

I have been and still am uneasy with a big-gov totalitarian in the WH and head of the worlds most powerful country. 

Dear DUchebag,

Are you better off now than you were four years ago?

Is America better off than it was four years ago?

Is the world better off than it was four years ago?

Apparently 0bama seems to think that his policies work, so odds are the DUmmies will buy it.

I would put forth that his policies have worked; just not the way that most Americans hoped.

I was over the fact he was black before he won the nomination.

So were most Republicans/Conservatives.

It's only Libtards and DUmmies that still have the hang up over the color of his skin it would appear...since they keep bringing it up.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

I found this quote from gollygee to be extremely offensive, and it pisses me off.  He's lumping all black Americans together, much like a species of animal, thinking they must all be exactly alike.  Not individual people, with their own characters and values, but a big block of something sub-human.

Yep it offends me as well. I know two women at my work, both black, one is a racist pos who makes every attempt to be a loathsome b*tch of a woman to mainly white, hispanic, or mixed race women. I know another who is a sweetheart of a southerner who I've had lunch with before. She's an angel and I love talking to her and enjoy her company immensely. We share our love for southern things:-) I love her for her wit and beautiful personality.

 Liberals have a tendency to bunch all blacks together. It's why they can buy and support African American victimology since nobody in that community apparently(in their eyes) is capable of self-control or personal responsibility that they need liberal white excuses to bale them out. I take offense to that. Blacks are not animals and are perfectly capable of integrity like any other person of a different race. The sad thing about this is that either blacks have bought it(not all, many) or they realize they can manipulate the perpetuation of this white guilt to their own ends.

Thank you, this is the point I was going to make. How do these LIBERALS think that Obama got into the White House? C'mon DUmmies, you always say how smart you are so do some simple math. I mean I am just a dumb old Conservative but I think that just maybe some white folks voted for Obama. Are their racists around? sure there are and there always will be but most of the people I talk to dislike the President because of his politics, not his skin color.

Enough already with this bullshit. You LIBERALS are hurting us all with this constant racist rhetoric. You are driving a wedge between Americans and causing a lot of unnecessary pain and suffering. If you keep it up it's going to blow up in your faces and it isn't going to be pretty. :banghead:

Dear DUmmies:

You stupid ****ing idiots! How the hell do you get out of bed in the morning without bouncing your head off the floor? You've used the "racist" meme for so ****ing long it has lost all meaning. Racism is serious and ugly and not limited to one race or even one country. When real racism rears it's ugly head, it won't garner the same impact and outrage as it should. Because you call everything racist, and have for generations (though it's definitely escalated since the post-racial president was elected), people won't even pay attention. It will be just another "ho hum, someone's crying racism again, need to remember to pick up canned peaches at the store".

But one of things I most love about your hysterically screaming racism as it applies to 0bama is that it shows you really do focus on the color of one's skin rather than the content of their character (or lack thereof in 0bama's case...I know, that's racisit). Evidently, you don't have enough faith in your president to believe he can handle the same criticism leveled at him that every other politician gets from the other side. Affirmative action must make recipients of special set asides and coddling so weak they're unable to stand up to the same scrutiny everyone else does. Personally, I think it's racist to decide someone can't make it on their own with hard work and determination because their skin is a shade other than white. I think it's damn twisted to have entire groups of people think they can't compete they way everyone else has to because white leftists have told them for generations they aren't good enough and need their help. Most don't even bother to help themselves anymore. Good job destroying an entire race of people there!

 But FYI, 0bama is NOT black...he's kinda dark tan. Heck, before we all discovered laying out in the sun for long periods of time was stupid, that was a shade many of us endeavored to reach in the summer. Even Morgan Freeman is still waiting for the first black president.  See, DUmmies, 0bama's mother was lily white, which I guess was appropriate since she was a flake. My stepbrother & sister are Mexican and they're much darker than 0bama. Even though my dad and their mom divorced a long time ago, we still think of ourselves as brother & sisters. (My stepmother is also Mexican and she's as white as I am, as is my half sister who's half Mexican). But, what if we'd had a falling out when our parents did. Would I be a racist because I didn't like my stepbrother and sister because they're skin is very dark, but not a racist if I didn't like my half sister and stepmother because they have light skin?

One thing you might consider while sputtering your racist, rambling slurs...you're doing nothing to promote or explain the benefits of 0bama's (and your) policies. When you're not being snarky and condescending, you're shitting the race card out of your ass! Why the hell should anyone listen to you (or the boy king) when your response to anyone who has a different opinion is to hold your noses while telling you're fellow DUmmies how much smarter you are or have one of your (daily) racism circle jerks? Hell, I'm still waiting for one of you to explain what "my own best interest" is and why I'm voting against it. I'm sure asking that during 0bama's reign is racist, though.

I don't know if you broke a nail on that one but there might be a crack cause that was a world class bitch slap.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
