Act Like a Man Obama

[Ben]

I've not heard of this Allen West before, but I certainly like his style. Especially the "crutch for failure" comment.

West Answers Obama:Run as a Man and Leader
Clarice Feldman
In response to Obama's claim that Republicans will use race to stoke fear, Lt. Col Allen West, candidate for Congress in Florida's 22 District issued this release:

    My advice to Senator Obama is to run as a Man and Leader, and the American people will evaluate you as such, not as a victim. This is a Presidential race, based solely on a capacity to lead the United States of America. It is not about skin tone...however, perhaps we should come to expect these immature statements.

    It also seems rather humorous that the Presidential candidate who was supposed to be such a "uniter" and transcend race is the one talking about it the most. If Senator Obama was confident in his abilities and character, he would not need to create a crutch for failure. Senator Obama has just tipped his hand, any criticism of him and his policies will be directly attributed to racism. I congratulate Senator Obama for taking race relations in America back some 30 years.

[sincerity] If you don't vote for Obama, you're a racist. [/sincerity]

If anything will catalyze a new "Nazi" movement it will be an Obama Presidency.

What isn't clear is whether the Nazis will be the old school ones or a new "rainbow" variety.

The man stands for Unreason and Unreason Unleashed is a runaway beast.

While Nazi's were certainly racist, their political faith was National Socialism which is what it is regardless of color.  We are very likely to see a Rainbow National Socialist party.  National Socialism is an economic system based on state ownership (or state direction) of capital - sound familiar?  BMW and their ilk were very glad to be controlled by the National Socialists, they made out like bandits and after all everything they did was for the good of the state.

The insanity that is Obama is still no justification for a "nazi" movement.
As a man he's a Socialist.  It stands forth through all his arguments, positions and beliefs.  He could be Thomas Jefferson's  body double, and I'd still not vote for him.

[longeyes]

My point was not to JUSTIFY a Nazi movement, it was to predict one.

I can live with being called that.

Then call me one too.

[wmenorr67]

I am a racist then.

[taurusowner]

Am I still a racist if I think Bobby Jindal have a shot at the Presidency sometime in the future?

[sincerity] If you don't vote for Obama, you're a racist. [/sincerity]

Now that puts me in a conundrum...

[Perd Hapley]

It's called "self-loathing," LadySmith.

I think Election 2008 stands a very real chance of breaking America. The fracture may be total. If Barack NMN Obama is elected, well...keep your powder dry, boys (and girls).

If Obama wins in November, we will be talking about very different things in a year or two, assuming there are such forums as these permitted.  We will be talking about what and whom our military is really loyal to.  We will be talking about nascent political movements spearheaded by former military vets.  And we will be talking about secession.  So fracture?  Yes, as I see it, a very likely eventuality.  We and the people for and behind Obama cannot really live in the same America; to think that we can is naive.  To compromise with them will end with our slavery.

[French G.]

If he wins the socialists and racists will be empowered. If he loses it will be because "the man" fixed the race. Either way we get turmoil.

Ammo? check.
Far from the city? check.
Sit on the rail for awhile in the stock market? check.

Ought to be an exciting election season.

[taurusowner]

Current military here.  And I'm loyal to the Constitution as it was written by the Founders.  It's what I swore, and it's what I'll do.  I can't predict the future, but that will guide me as it will.  That's all I can really say.

[Boomhauer]

Am I still a racist if I think Bobby Jindal have a shot at the Presidency sometime in the future?

Yep. He's a Republican, and a Tool of the White Man^TM. And if you are a white person, that makes you automatically a racist...

You are also a racist if you support Condeleeza Rice or any other conservative who happens to be black. They call them "Uncle Toms", cause they aren't really black...

[Waitone]

IIRC, Allen West is none other than Col. Allen West, an infantry battalion commander late of Iraq.  If IFRC he was the one who interrogated a prisoner in a manner not consistent with legal due process.  Lemme see if I can find an article. . . . here's one

I lack that, so may I please be an "Uncle Tom"? Pretty please? Something about making leftists cry "uncle" for me is appealing. 

[Perd Hapley]

Uncle Tom was a good (fictional) man and a good (fictional) role model for all Christians.

A little bit of self-oppression never hurt anyone....
