After a While, You Have To Accept That These Are The President's Beliefs On Display

When asked for an opinion about government-run health care, guess which Obama mentor answered this way?

I think the racists in the right wing are upset because poor people are about to be helped.

If you guessed Rev. Jeremiah Wright, you would be correct.

I know that people on the left are tired of having Wright, terrorist Bill Ayers, and other Obama mentors and allies thrown back in their faces repeatedly, but the influence these and like-minded figures had over the President in their long associations with him are very germane to how the President views the world. Wright's comments—and the twisted hatred and paranoia that underlie them—are the same sort of conspiratorial rants we've come to associate with another Obama ally that just stepped down from the Administration this weekend, Van Jones.

The simple fact of the matter is that all of these people were close to the President because they share the same core beliefs. While every person is an individual and they do differ on specific points, when a belief is endemic to a group and permeates it as a majority view, it is folly to think that that view is not commonly held and accepted by members of that group.

Barack Obama has a track record more than two decades long of walking arm-in-arm with radicals and racists that propagate these theories of conspiratorial oppression.

Perhaps Glenn Beck was right. Maybe President Obama is a racist. It certainly seems more likely every time one of his allies opens his mouth to spit forth another theory of conspiratorial oppression.

One reason I am amused at the perplexed questions of "who vetted Jones, anyway" is my certainty that nobody bothered to vet him because they knew all about him, and it wasn't a problem. Jones wasn't some goofy nut who slipped past the system - he represented what this particular system was looking for.

Remember how Obama was blindsided that anyone had a problem with him chumming around with Ayers and Wright for most of his adult life? It's one of his blind spots. America is so alien to him that he can't tell when somebody is not just out of the mainstream, but beyond the pale.

Yep.

I just don't understand why people couldn't see this from the get go... the only explanation is willful blindness.... at least people are beginning to open their eyes.. finally.. Obama is a racist and a very hard core one.. in my opinion his hate toward white people has a direct relationship to the fact that he's half white and half black.. I don't care how much black people rail against whitey.. they wish they were whitey.. that is their problem.. they are full of self hatred for being black. I know of no other race with as much self hatred.. none.

Perhaps people are waking to find, Hussein Obama is a radical too. Could it be? Or is he simply an innocent who just happens to have hung around and still hangs around radicals?

Exactly. Jonah Golberg is still saying that he does not believe that Obama is racist. But any white person with similar types of friends would be considered a racist, case closed.

Try to imagine a white Republican who spent twenty years going to a white supremacist church, was friends with David Duke, and appointed neo-Nazis to his staff.

Would there be even the slightest debate over whether such a person was racist?

Obama has some sympathies for Marxism, some sympathies for Islam. The news media hid this from the American people last year.

He befriends our traditional adversaries (Iran, Syria, Chavez, Castro) and he turns a cold shoulder to our traditional allies (England, Israel, Australia, Canada).

In my humble opinion, he is unfit to be the US President.

Van Jones said a mouthful about white polluters dumping pollution on people of color. What a crock. I grew up in Sayreville NJ. It’s not without its superfund sites and it’s a known cancer center. It also happens to have been mostly white for a long long time. Van Jones CHOSE to have this debate in terms of race, WHEN HE DIDN’T HAVE TO. He could have chosen to have it in terms of class and money, but he chose race. What does that say about Obama being “post racial”? HE’S NOT POST RACIAL. Period. He’s a race baiter who surrounds himself with race baiters, to his own detriment! He’s only in the process of being found out!

To anyone who paid attention, none of this should come as any sort of shock. Barry and Michelle jive with every word Van Jones ever uttered. Believe it because it’s a fact.

Dude and Lipschitz got scarce here with the Van wreck. What's up with that?

Obama is a neo-marxist
But Van Jones was a Paleo-Marxist so proud of his beliefshe called communism the hope of the world.

CY, I dont't think it is a maby - that Obama is a racist. Like some famous judge said a long time ago about pornography - "I know it when I see it." I have known some black racists, some yellow man racists, and some white racists - our president is a "black racist" through and through. He has demonstrated it in many ways and in many circumstances over a very long time.

I, like many saw it a long time ago - well before the election. I only had one vote though to try and stop him. As for Glenn Beck, I would say that he was/is the only TV media personality who had the STONES to say it. Everyone else tries to "tip Toe" around it on the air. Rush saw it too, and wasn't fearfull of calling him out on his show.

We can only pray that he can be slowed down. Stopped will take another 3 and 1/2 yars - a very long time to do a great deal of damage. "OH WOE IS ME, OH WOE IS ME."

We need to do everything in our power to make sure this man's Ideological goal is defeated. We have no other choice. He can RUIN our America. I think time is short. We are well on our way to ruin. God help us I pray.

We have now gone Gault.

The simple fact of Barry's marxist and racist views are a tough, tough pill to swallow for the Lefties, especially the youn 'uns but circumstances are forcing the issue. It is easy to forget that this disaster is barely nine months old at this point. The political tides are turning faster than we have ever seen in modern politics. In the end this will be a salutory event; the race card will be worthless for offense and suspect for defense once the dust settles. Of course it is going to be pretty dusty for a while.

I take issue with the association angle. I used to be a card-carrying member of the far left via "black nationalism" in my late teens to mid-twenties. It's been over a decade since I dropped that worldview (since it was pointless and way too many white folks helped me in various aspects of my life to be a "whitey hater"). But I had parents who were Black Panthers, two Uncles in the Nation of Islam, and various cousins in fringe left groups that are near and dear to me. I appreciate some of their advice, especially the brilliant mathematical mind of one of my uncles. But those associations don't taint me since I reject those views.

I highly doubt President Obama is a racist. Just like I don't believe Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, or Rush Limbaugh are racists. I've met racists before and believe me, they can't function well in public without giving up the goods. But I do believe President Obama has the "far left romance" thing going on. LOL!
