twa Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I'd say it's unfair to say one side has more than the others or one side has more stupid supporters. Bet we can prove ya wrong:silly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HA1LV1CT0RY Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 How did this get into an argument on which supporters are/are not stupid? There are idiots supporting both sides of the aisle. I'd say it's unfair to say one side has more than the others or one side has more stupid supporters. I only said it in relation to Burgold's statement earlier, it has since been blown out of proportion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duckus Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I only said it in relation to Burgold's statement earlier, it has since been blown out of proportion. An ironic statement, given what this entire thread, and the 10 others, are about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicious Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 If Obama supporters "Idolize" him. Then what do you rabid republican weirdos do? Pray to your politicians like gods? Oh wait, you do. Weirdos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsburySkinsFan Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 I'm not raging. I just find it irritating that so many people are blinded by Obama's rhetoric. I'm just here to point out that the guy isn't perfect like so many people seem to think. No, you were earlier defending the twit Glenn Beck's comments by calling Obama a racist by taking his comments out of context and by reframing what he said in a manner that fits your narrowly defined point of view, that doesn't match what you say in the above. Oh, no one said he was perfect, strawmen need not apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81artmonk Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I don't think Obama is a racist. He is just a product of what he grew up learning and those with whom he hung out with. evident by his comments about the police who arrested gates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weirdos. Yeah, you hit the nail on the head there buddy...:doh: No, you were earlier defending the twit Glenn Beck's comments by calling Obama a racist by taking his comments out of context and by reframing what he said in a manner that fits your narrowly defined point of view, that doesn't match what you say in the above.Oh, no one said he was perfect, strawmen need not apply. Sorry if you missed the post I was responding to. I didn't take anything out of context, I quoted an article and provided you with a link. I wasn't defending Beck or anyone else, I was simply providing you with my opinion on how I perceived the whole situation. Oh yeah you're right. He smokes, can't be perfect. ps: Since I have answered all of your questions, when are you going to answer mine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't take anything out of context, I quoted an article and provided you with a link. I wasn't defending Beck or anyone else, I was simply providing you with my opinion on how I perceived the whole situation. Sure you took him out of context, in that you only quoted part of his sentence and then applied the part you didn't quote to the part you did fully knowing that he added a qualifier in his statement that would have prevented the exact mischaracterization that you perpetrated. Oh yeah you're right. He smokes, can't be perfect. Whatever this isn't worth responding to since its just a snipe. ps: Since I have answered all of your questions, when are you going to answer mine? Sorry, I didn't see any questions that you asked other than why did he include the last part of his sentence if he didn't think it was racially motivated, and I thought that another poster answered that quite well during the thread, so repeating his thoughts seemed redundant. Was there another question you were asking or are you actually going to admit that Obama isn't a racist and your initial comments in this thread were a bit of an overstatement?

You might want to go back and see exactly what I quoted. And what was left out of the article that you so graciously brought up for me only helped my argument. Thanks! Whatever this isn't worth responding to since its just a snipe.Sorry, I didn't see any questions that you asked other than why did he include the last part of his sentence if he didn't think it was racially motivated, and I thought that another poster answered that quite well during the thread, so repeating his thoughts seemed redundant.

It's cool, don't worry about it I guess. edit: And yes you are right, calling him a racist is an overstatement. Sorry I wasn't more tactful, he gave the impression that there are some underlying issues. Maybe he should have been more tactful when he spoke too!

Thiebear Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Obama is a racist. he is structuring everything in a way he believes will make every race equal. Healthcare taxes etc. a robin hood like attempt to ensure all money more than trickles down to all below the top 5%. Not a neatly framed Capitalism idea so its going poorly.

Healthcare taxes etc. a robin hood like attempt to ensure all money more than trickles down to all below the top 5%. Not a neatly framed Capitalism idea so its going poorly. Come on, quotes like these don't mean a thing: "I fear that reparations would be an excuse for some to say, 'We've paid our debt,' and to avoid the much harder work." "If we have a program, for example, of universal health care, that will disproportionately affect people of color, because they’re disproportionately uninsured,” Obama said. “If we’ve got an agenda that says every child in America should get – should be able to go to college, regardless of income, that will disproportionately affect people of color, because it’s oftentimes our children who can’t afford to go to college." Also, giving "preference to entities and individuals who are from underrepresented minority groups or disadvantaged backgrounds" when it comes to grants and contracts is in the healthcare bill. No worries though, we are for equality of every man, woman, and child Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Healthcare taxes etc. a robin hood like attempt to ensure all money more than trickles down to all below the top 5%. Not a neatly framed Capitalism idea so its going poorly. So basically you are saying that Obama is one who "believes that inherent differences among the various human races determines cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others"? Even though we have evidence, that he is not??? You don't know what a the definition of a racist is obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't know what a the definition of a racist is obviously. No, i'm saying based on his own words about his Grandmother. he feels there is an inherent racism in white people I say there is an inherent racism in all people. And he is using his inherent racism to fix what he sees as an injustice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inherent prejudice...yes...inherent racism...no...I don't think Obama feels that his race/culture is more dominant just because they are black.
