He should be focusing his energy on "fixing" the economy, getting that damn Obamacare website to work correctly, or HOW ABOUT TAKING A FUCKING STAND ON THE CURRENT GEOPOLITICAL NIGHTMARE THAT IS COMING OUR WAY! |

He's a racist prick that want's nothing more than to divide and cause a race war. Can't wait till this asshole is out of office along with his cronies. |

The HUGE population segment of the US understands how false he is, how insidiously he consistently lies about "virtually" anything concerning Truth and how immoral & anti-God/Jesus Christ he is. Those who are confused by this comment will largely remain lost with the inevitable fall into eternal darkness of your/their spiritual judgement. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 28877344 United States 04/27/2014 04:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | President Barack Obama admonishes Donald Sterling for “offensive racist statements” Quoting: Anonymous Coward 47186699 Adam Silver, Barack Obama, Donald Sterling, Los Angeles Clippers By Rob Mahoney President Barack Obama was asked about Clippers owner Donald Sterling during a press conference in Malaysia on Saturday. (MOHD RASFAN/AFP/Getty Images) President Barack Obama was asked about Clippers owner Donald Sterling during a press conference in Malaysia on Saturday. (MOHD RASFAN/AFP/Getty Images) Reaction to the racist comments attributed to Clippers owner Donald Sterling extended well beyond the confines of the basketball world on Saturday, as President Barack Obama was asked about the subject during a press conference in Malaysia. Obama, himself an avid fan of the NBA and the sport in general, conveyed both his condemnation of Sterling’s comments and faith in the league to address the issue. Obama’s full comments on the subject were as follows: The owner is reported to have said some incredibly offensive racist statements that were published. I don’t think I have to interpret those statements for you; they kind of speak for themselves. When people — when ignorant folks want to advertise their ignorance you don’t really have to do anything, you just let them talk. And that’s what happened here. I have confidence that NBA commissioner Adam Silver — a good man — will address this. Obviously, the NBA is a league that is beloved by fans all across the country. It’s got an awful lot of African-American players. It’s steeped in African-American culture. And I suspect that the NBA is going to be deeply concerned in resolving this. I will make just one larger commment about this. The United States continues to wrestle with the legacy of race, slavery and segregation. That’s still there — the vestiges of discrimination. We’ve made enormous strides, but you’re going to continue to see this percolate up every so often. And I think that we just have to be clear and steady in denouncing it, teaching our children differently, but also remaining hopeful that part of why some statements like this stand out so much is because there has been this shift in how we view ourselves.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 39974194 I think Obama is an offensive racist statement. Besides, this was a private comment to his girlfriend that got secretly recorded. WTF? Sterling did NOTHING wrong. We're supposed to censor ourselves in private conversation now? I don't think so, Barry. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 56567213 United States 04/27/2014 05:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A man of position and wealth like Sterling knows FULL WELL the impact those words can and will have on our current environment. A most inopportune (convenient)? time to make a statement like that. Quoting: RantProne Just like Rumsfeld when he put down Obama. Rumsfeld isn't stupid, and for him to make a statement like that was also very suspicious. It wasn't a public statement, it was a private communication to his girlfriend. If the NBA does ANYTHING to him over this, he should sue the NBA for $billions. If the black NBA players don't want to play for him, they are free to quit consistent with the terms of their contracts. |
