How long will it take before he's not "black enough"?

[SCone]

Anyone care to venture out on when Obama will cease to be a "black" President?

I've seen the tone of his retoric "change" from what he preached on the campaign trail. It appears that the reality of the Presidency is becoming clear to him. He's hedging on promises, postponing programs & calling on his supporters to be patient.

My bet is that by July 4th, he'll be at a 35% approval rating... or LESS.

I bet your bet is going to be right...

I was in DC the weekend after the election and I saw a thug wearing a shirt that said..."Black" Obama...with his holiness' picture on it. Also, below the steps of the Lincoln Memorial was a massive billboard type sign that said, The Chosen One Barack Obama. People were writing thank you notes on bringing world peace and all kinds of junk on it

I just threw up in my mouth. The ignorance of people just blows me away. She can go ahead and not pay her mortgage then she will not have to worry about putting gas in her car cause the IRS will take it off her hands.

In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Chosen One Obama!!!

LOL. Clearly a large block of votes for Obama were cast along racial lines favoring his black half. If thing go south for those voters after Tuesday, I reckon they can blame the white half.

Of course, color has nothing to do with it. The man is simply a typical liberal buffoon who also happens to be completely unqualified to occupy the Oval Office.

Can anyone honestly see Obama as Commander-In-Chief of U.S. Armed Forces? I'd like to see how long he would last walking point in defense of that flag behind him.

Many whites voted for him to prove they were not racists. Sad but true. Funny thing is, he is half white and grew up more white than black. He has no connection with the stereotypical ghetto black and cannot possibly relate to the trials and tribulations the blacks face in their self created environment of murder, rape and thievery. Once it is realized that he isn't going to be handing out free "cheese", his popularity in the black community will drop quickly.

So how many of yall have seen the Episode 3 of Star Wars. When the Emperor Palpatine asks for more power to end the war and bring peace to the galaxy they give it to him and the senate council begins to cheer. He then created the Galactic Empire. That made for some great change there.

Senator Amidala says something to the effect of “ So this is how democracy dies. To the roar or thunderous applause.” I could help but draw a similarity between the two.

In times like these, I am thankful that we have a government based on checks and balances. Yes, those balances don't necessarily work all the time, but they are there. A large number of people are assuming that Obama has the power of emperor, and will be disappointed when they find out that he has to work within the system just like every other president.

The next four years are going to be tough, I just hope we don't fair too badly.

The best part of all of this is the Free Market will eventually correct itself (no matter how much political influence is applied) and all of these ignorant schleps will be out of a job, out of a house and living a life of crap by the mid-term elections.

Obama's approval probably won't drop that quick, due to any improvements in anything will be attributed to him. And there are enough sheep out there to believe it. Hopefully we will see a backlash directed at the democrats in the 2010 congressional elections. It won't have anything to do with race, just the democratic agenda that isn't working.

Some Americans have balances left in their accounts and estates, and tomorrow Obama will have the federal checkbook in hand. All that's missing is a tax hike.

Thats the part that scares me. Obama was able to mobilize the masses on the public dole...

Two things.

One: The President does not hold the Federal checkbook. Congress, more specifically the House of Representatives, does.

Two: Osama - I mean Obama - is just another Ivy League Marxist/ socialist. He has less in common with the average Black person than my blonde-haired, green-eyed WASP self does.

That's exactly right. The president doesn't dole out the funds, the house and senate representatives do. Write you representatives and let them how you, their constituents, want them to vote.
