Thread: Team Obama once again plays the dreaded "race card"!

Obama has a huge ego.

He will do anything to win a second term.

If Obama truly want the "respect" he demands, he will start acting like a chief executive and call off his attack dogs that are all too willing and eager to play the dreaded "race card"!

"And surrogates will play the race card. Indeed, that, too, has already started, with the claim that critics are not giving Obama the “respect” other presidents enjoyed. In this case, “respect” is a code word for race."

The upshot is that Obama is in a box of his own making. The jobs speech didn’t give him a bounce and, in addition to Republican opposition to the proposals, key Democrats in the Senate are openly balking. As a package, his proposals are dead.

There is one hope left for Obama: the GOP. If the Republican nominee also turns off independents, the president will be back in the hunt.

He will employ -- we’ve seen shades already -- a scorched-earth negative campaign. He’ll fear-monger about “extreme”GOP agendas, especially toward the elderly and the poor.

And surrogates will play the race card. Indeed, that, too, has already started, with the claim that critics are not giving Obama the “respect” other presidents enjoyed. In this case, “respect” is a code word for race.

That could work -- if millions of Americans come down with amnesia and forget the brutal “pounding” President George W. Bush took. A favorite charge against Bush was that his policies were un-American. Here’s an example:

“The way Bush has done it over the last eight years is to take out a credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children, driving up our national debt from $5 trillion when he assumed office to over $9 trillion of debt that we are going to have to pay back -- $30,000 for every man, woman and child. That’s irresponsible. It’s unpatriotic.”

Barack Obama said that in 2008. Three years later, the debt is $14 trillion and jobs are shrinking. Now, thanks to Obama, we are going to have to pay back -- $50,000 for every man, woman and child. … Pound away, America.

I think obama doesn't get some of the respect other presidents have enjoyed. Of course those other presidents earned that respect by not pissing all over the nation's finances etc.

This has nothing to do with race and everything to do with obama being a shitty poker player that got dealt a shitty hand.

In your eyes, Obama can never do anything right, because your own egos wouldn't be "big" enough to admit having been wrong about him.
