…and the room goes silent.Generally speaking, if there is one type of person a liberal such as yourself hates more than a white conservative, it is a black conservative … All while claiming there is a conservative racist under every bed.
Ummm…I am a conservative-progressive. The term liberal implies anything goes (homosexuality, thugism, drugs, abortion). I am progressive….meanng that I vote for socialist agendas that improve our quality of life. If you dont want to live in a society that is part socialist then try living in Mexico or any country on the continent of Africa, South America.
Is that like a capitalist-communist?
Like Venezuela? How is all that working out?

The most telling thing about how people feel about Obama is that they always refer to him as “Mr. Obamaâ€, rarely “President Obamaâ€. Previous presidents were always “President xxx†or “Mr. Presidentâ€. It’s subtle, but effective.
This was a very common complaint from the right when GWB was very frequently and cmmonly referred to as "Mr. Bush." It may or may not be a valid concern, but it is nothing new.

He gave those that cheated a blank check- By this I mean those that took high risk loans and sold them as AAA quality investments, shedding the risk onto unsuspecting folks who were looking for a safe investment. aka BANKS. This is legalized fraud.And–just for the record, most of the bailouts were passed under Bush.
True. Generally speaking conservatives were against it. Its pretty obvious that Bush was no fiscal conservative. Few believed that McCain would have been one either.

no, its someone who is ok with socialism yet wants conservative fiscal policy...umm, like TEDDY ROOSEVELT. You should read up on American history before making political commentary like such.

That is because both parties now share the same values: PROTECT BIG BUSINESS

For weeks now I have sat back and watched how many people in the media have used different code words when describing the president and many issues involving African people. Many of you are using code words such as: Communist, Socialist, Marxist or other phrases such as “we want our country backâ€. This is letter is to ask you to say what you really mean…And that is you don’t want a Black man in the White House? Many Americans of Caucasian descent listen to and follow Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh on an every day basis. These are some of the main perpetrators of this code language involving the President and many African Americans in this country. When I hear the code words that you all are using such as: We want our country back, isn’t this all of our country?
If my history is correct African Americans helped to create this country as we know it today. Even in slavery time they created inventions and a work force that fueled the economic development of this country. So whose country is it anyway? Some of you make the argument that we need to get back to the constitution, what the framers of the constitution had in mind. Again, if my history is correct the framers never had the poor or the blacks in mind when they were framing the constitution. So I ask you again, stop speaking in code and just say what you feel. You cannot take a black man being president of the United States. Furthermore, I often wonder, are the powers that be in the media trying to stir this hatred in our country for our president?
What do you arch-conservatives have to say for yourself?....shame, shame, shame.
