Criticizing the President

[Nightgaunt]

At work this morning, I made a comment concerning the media's love affair with Barack Obama to the girl in the coiling department. She said that I had made a racist comment and wouldn't listen to anything I had to say after that. By the end of the day, the entire shop had been told that I am a racist and had gone on a bigoted tirade against Obama. No doubt, I'll be hauled before management tomorrow morning.

During the W. Presidency, you were unpatriotic and possibly a traitor if you criticized the President. Now you're a racist. Yep. There's some real change for ya.

I'm really starting to loathe my countrymen and -women.

Something like this happened to me today also. I basically told the person I wouldn't care if Obama was green with hot pink polka dots, I still wouldn't agree with some of the policies he wants to do.

[Nightgaunt]

Well, what did you say about him? Just because not all criticisms of the president are racist doesn't mean that some are not.

I commented that the media has been treating him like he's the second coming of Christ. What's SO outrageous is that I'm about as far from racist as you can get.

[Enishi]

Ugh. I predicted this would happen.

Next up, people being outright fired or even investigated by the police because they dared to criticize "the Messiah".

[Scary Guy]

Yeah, which is bullshit. Obama actually exists.

Ugh. I predicted this would happen.

You too? We must be psychic!

[Gaf The Horse With Tears]

Warren schools are putting kids in detention if they say any negative about Obama.

The re-education camps should be starting up soonish.

[phee]

LOL

Sad dude...I hope you are holding your own in that meeting...that's fuckin' bullshit!

Now that is disturbing.

Its a strange time we live in.... First we have a guy where if you question anything ANYTHING about his actions or his motives you are unAmerican and "giving comfort to the enemy"

Now we are in a spot where any criticism is racist.....

*sigh*

There's a CHANGE....

...brings to mind the old adage... "Be careful what you wish for...you just might get it"...

(I do hope that was not construed as a racist comment.)

No, just an unAmerican one

[Rev.Reverence]

No, just an unAmerican one

...from ME???

.....& I thought I was starting to get used to it here...

[jynxxxedangel]

And everyone thinks I'm crazy, for wanting to emigrate.. *sigh*

When people here are practising the "freedom of speech" that is supposed to be our right, and being called "racist," I won't be shedding a single tear while I'm flying away on that jet plane.

But where are you going? Contrary to popular belief there are places that are worse than America as far as a few things are concerned.

Canada and most of Europe are off my list...still wanna go back to Latvia...but still there is hate there...damn Russians!

[creatureofthenyte]

It's not racist to criticize the president.

Being called racist for criticizing the president,

is the left's way of distracting people away from the criticism;

because the left can't handle the fact that the criticism just might be Valid.

+1

I am getting more and more concerned that certain people WANT to keep racism alive...why? I have no idea...but they give it more attention and hype than it deserves...they take everything you say and do and make it racist...to be equal means that everyone gets the same treatment...and as long as these people are getting special treatment the goal of being equal will never be reached. Its over...racism is dead save for a few individuals which we cannot prevent...get over it because you being retarded.

[candyman]

Oh and I would also like to add that I have more respect for President Obama. I just watched his speech and...he pretty much said what Bush said in different words.

He said that we will not apologize for our way of life...just like Bush. He gave a message to our enemies that we will not step down...just like Bush. He said that we will soon prosper...just like Bush.

So now my question: So, he says what Bush said...but its different? Is he just young and black so he is cooler? Did we finally educate our populace on what "hope" means so now they flaunt it? Were we so lame as to never have had hope before?

I now feel better since it seems he will let me keep my guns...at least for now...but maybe not my CETME since its a light machine gun when I set the selector switch to auto

I don't know if this is related to the conversation, but isn't racism like terrorism? Not like it's literally the same, but you can't defeat an idea right? That's why "War on ____" never works right?

At a certain point they become the same...but in America that point was reached along time ago and its now gone.

The idea of discrimination lives inside of all humans...some just not as much. Racism in individals can never be defeated...and since its individals and they are all different it is impossible to defeat.

The idea of terrorism mostly requires at least a small group of like minded people. Terrorism uses horrible actions to control a group of people. Most often that group of people is of the same race as those acting out.

If you strip them both down they are very close to being similar...but not very similar.
