Obama: "Typical White Person" is Racist
We thought we heard this, but we wanted to go back and listen to the clip of Sen. Barack Obama on 610 WIP this morning to be sure.

610 WIP host Angelo Cataldi asked Obama about his Tuesday morning speech on race at the National Constitution Center in which he referenced his own white grandmother and her prejudice. Obama told Cataldi that "The point I was making was not that my grandmother harbors any racial animosity, but that she is a typical white person. If she sees somebody on the street that she doesn't know (pause) there's a reaction in her that doesn't go away and it comes out in the wrong way."

We doubt this story will have legs, but wonder if Hillary Clinton referred to a "typical black person," would we ever hear the end of it?

Re: Obama: "Typical White Person" is Racist
I'll repost this here too as that statement is ridiculous from my experience..........


I'm a white woman and always thought blackmen were ok, they'd always been ok with me and were generally nice, but one day i was in the stores and could hear the racial taunts coming from the black aimed to the white workers, i could not believe what my brother has to put up with from such stinking racists, as soon as stepped onto the factory floor they stopped, and one black guy even winked at me and said good morning!!!!
To us white women they hide their racism, its our men who hear and deal with it on a daily basis the media right down to the factory floor.

Don't bother speaking to me if you're a racist of ANY color, i refuse to acknowledge any of the black workers there now......its what you do with naughty children......ignore them, until they learn to behave

Re: Obama: "Typical White Person" is Racist
why is what he said not considered racist?

If whitey said the same sort of thing they would be accused of being racist.

This pisses me off.

"He just keeps digging himself deeper into the hole."

You know I just don't think it will matter. We had a similar thing here where people voted for a guy - not because of his policies (he didn't have any), not because he had any integrity, not because he was smart, not because he was anything at all - he got elected because he told people what they wanted to hear.

The media set the issues up well in advance:-

-Global warming
-Minority groups and the injustices which surround them
-the American's are the baddies of the world
- Iraq and Afghanistan were sinful, so troops have to get out.

These are the 'key' issues that are peddled by the press ---daily.

(Please notice that issues which concern the average voter are absolutely NOT discussed by the media such as illegal immigration, food, job security, housing, health and justice)

Then you get a candidate who claims the moral high ground on the media's issues (global warming, minority disenchantment, evil whitey and his quest for world domination etc) and he gets voted in on a landslide.

Show them that this man is dishonest, he has lied about just about everything, show them that he is corrupt -- and they just dont mind.

It is the craziest thing, and it doesn't make sense, it doesn't stand critical thinking. Everything is about making people 'feel good'. It is all such a con.

Under "Global Warming" concerns people WILLINGLY pay increased taxes and charges for basic services (food, water, electricity, petrol) Its like they get the same kind of piety high that hairshirt wearing monks got in the middle ages)

The same thing goes for minority grievances, if you want to address every single minority grievance (no validation of those grievances needed) - then you will be feeling a whole lot better.

The whole thing is crazy. Forget the jobs, the afford ability of health care, the housing crisis, rampant crime - lets go with the "feel good" politics of the trivial.

It is madness.

 Quoting: Evil Twin

True,

But I think that there is a lot more to this than meets the eye. This is too organized and too delayed for me to simply let it go. I see order behind the chaos and the picture I am seeing, at least right now, is that TPTB have arranged things to happen this way. When I realized that Obama's preacher had a man standing behind him with a Knight Templar logo on his shirt, It pretty much solidified the thought. The sad thing is that so many people are focused on the racial issues that when you propose that Obama is perhaps one of the "they" then the race cards start flying.

This is the big dance and you don;t get to this level unless "they" support you. We all saw this with Ron Paul. he is not part of the "they" groovy tie club...

Re: Obama: "Typical White Person" is Racist
osince Rev Wrights Church was only for the advancement of Blacks.how many whites did obama sue for the blacks..and ruin small white bussinesses..after all nwacp pays for lawyers for blacks to sue whites out of thier bussinesses..did his church members only employ blacks in most positions in the bussinesses that this influential church group owned from tax free gov grants..did they get sued for discrimination.for failure to hire Whites.....next time america do not try to elect lawyers..this is a real mystery....Obama was my choice but now i am troubled.....i may have to be safe and vote for Hillery.....this is too toxic ...Hillery will help us all....it is my last best hope..

White people are not typically racist, however they are tired of hearing about shit they had nothing to do with. Let it go. I don't even know who my ancestor's are and I don't give a rat's ass. I am an American and proud of it.

I know many of you are not going to watch his speech but some might take the time to watch Jon Steward talking about a few clips from it and I think you will be surprised.



Hint he talks about all forms of racism just like many of you here do.....like I said you will be surprised not even Ron Paul brought this up......

I'll vote for the man.

Did in the Primary.

"Taint nothing compared to the racist crap I used to hear in my grandmother's racist church in Texas. But, white folks wont talk about what happens in THEIR kitchen tables.

Grandpa used to say 'that chocolate milk will turn you black, you know' to his grandkids.

HE was a typical white person in Texas.
