Yes, it was former congressman Joe Walsh nowadays a talk show host who is a
not thinly veiled outright racists. These guys don't use the "dog whistle"
racists shit. They just come right out and say it nowadays.
And let me say this too....For I must... I am deeply disappointed as are
many with Obama, though not as harsh as some from the progressive
perspective which doesn't even need to be debated.
But, this racial element is clear and stupid and pure bullshit and
repulsive. And it has been there from the beginning with the President.
I judge him on the content of his character, which is excelent though flawed
as we all are . And I judge him on his policies as we all do and should do
in a democracy.
I do not judge The President on the color of his skin.
I'm so saddened in that so many have done so.
I really remember back to his election and to his innaugaration and my utter
elation, let alone amazment, that maybe we crossed the racial divid.
How, naive I was on that.

It happens that, that is the same congressman who said, during one of
Obama's speeches, "You lie". That wouldn't have happened either, if the
President were white.

Hi
If the president was White and the commentator was Black wouldn't it be a
threat?
