Democrats on Tuesday denounced an Iowa Republican congressman who says President Barack Obama favors blacks over whites, and a GOP candidate from Colorado canceled a fundraiser the Iowan was to keynote.

Rep. Steve King, known for sometimes incendiary remarks about immigration, Abu Ghraib and other issues, criticized Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder, who also is black, in an interview Monday on G. Gordon Liddy's nationally syndicated radio talk show.

90% of black voters vote Democrat. Doesn't that make this a foregone conclusion?

Even some Teabaggers/Republicans are unhappy with King over his racist remarks:

Obama has a problem with racially profiling white people.

His history proves it.

He called his own granny a typical white person. If any white candidate would have ever called someone a typical black person the left wingers and the media would be all over it.

He called the Cambridge Mass cops out before he knew the facts because he was protecting his black friend and knew the cop was white.

He now is saying that the BP ceo is a typical CEO and knows that he wont be telling him the truth when they meet.

Obama racially profiles white people.

Guess if we ( whites ) go out for ice cream we need to make sure he is not around or he would be profiling us.

He has also said that corporate America does not want to help the inner city black people which is total BS. What does he want them to do give them more handouts?

Obama is a closet racist with a racist white by his side.

But the right-wingers keep saying it's the left who plays the race card!



The fact that some people interpret Obama that way tells me that there is a lot more to do with race going on in some right-wingers minds than many of them are wiling to admit.

Oh my God! A Black president! He must have ulterior motives against the White man! So yeah, tell me again, where the racism is emanating from?

Laffs. So transparent.

First of all I do not see him as a black person. His momma was as white as snow therefore he is NOT black.

Then again with his history of attacking white people just shows most of us he is a racist person towards whites and add in the wife who hates whites you have a team of racist living in our WH.
