"You Lie!"

Something I've not touched on for some time is some of the racist undertones used by some against President Obama, save for a recent blog I did on a Washington Times article over his trip to Japan. I have criticised Obama on many occasions regarding foreign policy, health-care, and green energy. However, there is a way to do it that doesn't cut down to racist pandering. 

Here are a few examples of racism towards Obama:

This is what I call "stopping short". Read some on Joe Wilson, the guy who shouts "You Lie" at the 1:22 mark.

He is an unapologetic, racist 2.0. I'm surprised he didn't yell "You LIE, boy!"

The following is a compilation of McCain/Palin supporters in 2008. You tell ME if there isn't an atmosphere of

"White Pride" teaming up against that "damn Muslim, foreigner" who's going to "help the blacks"...

How about the two folks from 0:12 to 0:29? "A second stringer?"

And the woman at 0:55? "The whole, uh, Muslim thang"...

Yep. Big group of winners we have here.

Seriously, this is what a lot of middle America is like. I know, I live and deal with many of these people on a daily basis. 

That's why when I hear "Obama is hurting with independent voters", I know a lot of those voters are people

like the ones represented in some of those videos. 

Sigh...
