‘Let’s Face It, the Color of His Skin’

Posted on | September 2, 2011 | 23 Comments

MSNBC’s Richard Wolffe explains why you hate Obama:

“What is it about this President that has stripped away the veneer of respect that normally accompanies the office of the president? Why do Republicans think that this president is unpresidential and shouldn’t dare to request this kind of thing? . . . It strikes me that it could be the economic times, or that he won so big in 2008, or, It could be, let’s face it, the color of his skin.”

We all remember the “veneer of respect” liberals had for President Bush, right? But Wolffe is a minor player among MSNBC’s heavyweight purveyors of progressive pretzel-logic. None can compare to that eminent Evangelist of Incomprehension, the Reverend Al Sharpton:

Big Journalism’s P.J. Gladnick says he replayed this Al Sharpton clip nine times and still couldn’t understand what the Reverend was trying to say.

I’ll make it easy for you, P.J.: He was saying you’re a raaaaacist for thinking he’s too stupid to read his own script.

Or in other words: “Resist we much!”

UPDATE: What will Richard Wolffe say when he learns that a Republican has accused President Obama of having “Zero Leadership, Zero Plans, Zero Results and Zero Understanding of Basic Economics“?

    Gee, and I thought the fact he’s the worst President in history, a socialist, and an America-hating, muslim-loving, Israel-hating, Iran-sucking, arrogant, narcissistic [insert phallic slang here] was the main reason.

    But now, why do I hate Richard Wolfe?

    You misspelled “Wolffe.”

    He needs an extra “f,” you see.

    I dont understand these people. Over at the WsP Jonathan Capehart writes similar crap. First he describes how happy he was, when he thought the President was finally “fighting” and then blabbers on about how inappropriate it was for Republicans not to respond with respect to that. Cognitive dissonance we much?

    Calling someone a racist has about as much impact anymore, as calling them a paper clip. Of course, anyone who’s inclined to believe this tripe has the intellect of a paper clip anyway, which is why they vote Dem.

    No matter how many “fs” his name includes, the man is absolutely wrong.

    I despise the half that’s Caucasian as much as I despise his black half.

    I guess that makes me an equal opportunity raaaaacist!

    Since the half-black Obama has 90% approval ratings from blacks and declining ratings of around 30% from respondents in every other racial category, isn’t it the blacks who are being racist?

    What ‘color of his skin’? His skin has about the same color as mine does. If he actually looked like a Negro it might be different, but he’s about as black as Michael Jackson.

    I’m not too fond of Boehner, but it’s not because he happens to be orange.

    I hate the color of his skin: Marxist Red, or perhaps that’s just the color of his Communist Cloak he wraps himself in.

    The question was is this the night we have to admit that Rush Limbaugh was right, the president really was trying to upstage the Republican debate, is there any other possible explanation?  And Wolffe’s answer is that this is an extraordinary reaction to a typical normal sequence of events when the economy is in trouble and we are entering a political season.  

    What?  

    If Wolffe thinks that’s the basis upon which people are going to start walking around wondering whether or not we are racists than what is extraordinary is his utter inability to face reality.

    I don’t judge him by the color of his skin, but by the color of his ideology.

    Let’s face it. The only thing that leftist assclowns like Wolfe find even remotely interesting about the stuttering dipshit that is Brakabama is the color he appears to be. That’s all these assholes know about him and it’s all they want to know.

    Let’s face it some more. If Brakabama weren’t such a nifty color in their eyes, they’d all be trying to figure out a way to primary his incompetent ass and they would be doing so openly.

    Because he speaks the truth and you prove his point, and the point that tea partiers are racist a-holes.
