I have noticed that the white news anchors and commentators, who are most of them, have become incoherent in how they’re reporting all of this. They’re incoherent. There’s nothing objective. There’s nothing mature.
It is pure psycho-babble hero cult worship.
They’re trying to outdo each other to see who can be the most loyal, celebratory, wax the most eloquent about the lofty descriptions of the personality and personage of Barack Obama.
On the one hand, they speak of how historic this occasion is because the American people elected a black man as president. But they won’t come out and say that they’re amazed by this because they believe the American people are racist. They’re ecstatic that they have caused (in their own minds) this historic election to take place. The Media think they made this happen. That’s why they’re totally invested in this, which is why Obama is too big to fail.
The media are so in the tank, he’s too big to fail. They will not allow him to fail because they have to take themselves down with him since they have put him on this pedestal, above everybody else. But there will be those out there who will put this into context, who are not personality-affected by this.
We’re not groupies.
That’s the best way to describe it. The Media have become groupies for Obama and all of the things that they have made up that attach themselves to them.
The American people were not racist before the election. The American people are not racist now. I’m not sure how many Americans are caught up in this whole notion. Fifty-five million people voted against Obama. I don’t know where the notion got started that 80% of the country is excited and can’t wait and doesn’t want the president to fail, wishes him success and all this sort of stuff.
The fact is, this country is the most tolerant society on the face of the earth, which explains one reason why people flee here from every corner of the earth. But the Media, and the American left have it in their heads that this is still the antebellum slavery days that, that it may as well be the 1860s or it may as well be the 1960s with Bull Connor still running around out there.
They have lost all perspective. They have lost all responsibility. These white anchors and commentators are now fully revealing their political agendas, which for decades they denied. This is their agenda.
When they insist that we all get behind Obama, only for one reason, ’cause he’s black?’ Well, maybe there’s another reason, because he’s not George W. Bush?
Obama’s historic election is behind me now.
I don’t see black people when I look at people. I don’t see women. I don’t see groups of people.
I see Americans.
When I look at Obama, I see my president. I see a man who’s in charge of this country for the next four years. I care very deeply what he intends to do. I care what his policies are.
I’m not going to give him a pass because he represents some sordid past of our country and as such he gets free rein to do what he wants while we say nothing because we “owe” this to him, based on our original sin of slavery. Sorry, it doesn’t work that way here.
He’s the president. He has policies. I know what they are. I’ve studied ’em. I have every bit of understanding I can on where he wants to take this country.
I don’t want to go there! I don’t want this to become a western European socialist country, and it’s going to.
If we get socialized medicine, if we get national health care, it’s over. That’s the end of the country as we know it. We get national health care. From that point on, there’s no reversing it. You create that kind of dependency in people, and there will be no reversing that. There will be calls for adding more to the whole concept of the government should do everything.
Why should we get behind Obama, especially if he urges policies that we reject? Why should we do this? What is the point?
What do we gain by this? All we gain is what the left has been trying to do to us for years and that’s silence ourselves. Okay, so we shut ourselves up. Do you think we’re going to get praised for this? Do you think we’re going to be credited, you think we’re going to be brought into the tent, you think we’re going to be brought into the, quote, unquote, “big clique”?
Hell no.
They say everybody wants him to succeed. Why’s that?
Did everybody want Bush or Clinton or Reagan to succeed?
Can somebody go back in American history and tell me when we had a president that everybody wanted to succeed?
I’m not even sure every American wanted George Washington to succeed. There are a lot of people that were not quite happy about the way that was all going down.
What reason must we all shut up and hope Obama succeeds, especially when he has policy ideas that I reject?
He’s not a “black” president. He’s not “the first black president” to me. That’s done. That’s the past.
That’s no justification for engaging in errors and making mistakes and doing the wrong things while people shut up simply because of the historic nature here. We want him to succeed because he’s the first black president? If that’s the case, then who’s suspending reason and acting out their own racism?
The racism here is on the left! Everything we’re doing here, we’re supposed to do because of race. He’s the first black president, so we’re to shut up and we’re to root for him? We’re going to say we hope he has a successful presidency.
“Well, everybody wants him to succeed.”
Well, no. And it isn’t based on race! As it always is, the racial element or component in all of this is being injected by the Media.
A president is to be supported or opposed, whichever is the case, based on what he stands for, what his policies are and so forth.
Not his race.
Why should anyone want a president to succeed if his positions are considered damaging to the economy and national security? And, by the way, who are the true classical liberals now? Who is it that’s obsessed with race, as opposed to being colorblind and addressing issues based on their substance? We’re not getting any substance in terms of reporting about Barack Obama at all because the left and the media are obsessed with the racial component, while they claim they’re the ones who are colorblind.
Another point of hypocrisy that I wish to add here as a means of illustrating what’s going on.
Remember when Justice Thomas, Clarence Thomas, was nominated as only the second black man to the Supreme Court, he was trashed. They tried to destroy him simply because his views did not comport with those of the liberals.
Did you ever hear the media say,
“We need to get behind Clarence Thomas; we all want Clarence Thomas to succeed because of the symbolism behind his appointment?”
No. You heard that he was unqualified, that he was over his head, that he hadn’t accomplished much in his life, and then they sent out the character assassins to try and derail his nomination, and this guy had a record of performance.
But now we’re supposed to set all this aside and just blindly say,
“Oh, yes, I hope he succeeds.”
So it clearly is only historic when the minority is a liberal, and we should only unite behind the person if it advances the liberal agenda.
We’re supposed to get behind Obama even when we disagree with him, but they are free to continue to trash Bush when he was elected and when he is leaving office.
I’m still waiting for Obama to tell us how the government is going to sacrifice, folks. Everybody else is supposed to sacrifice, but the government’s not. It’s employing more people, it’s spending more money, it’s printing more money. The government isn’t going to sacrifice here at all.
