Angry? No you're the one angry, I've also noticed the biggest covert racists are those who take racism lightly and make sarcastic statements about "racism". I'm 100% certain you roll your eyes at the word. Racism is a joke to you I know, you're just ignorant, how could you even understand racism if you never had to face it. It's all trivial and complaining to you.
The "Bum" will be here for 8 years and your rising blood pressure will continue to take you into hypertension. Better get those pills ready.
No, racism is not a "joke" to me. I know that you guys on the left just misuse the word frequently
The vast majority of the people unhappy with Obama are not against him for racial reasons. I will say also though that there are A FEW that are racist toward how though
Don't be mad at me because I don't try to see the world in racial terms. My friends of other races look at each other as people and not black white brown or whatever
“During the five years that we would live with my stepfather in Indonesia, I was sent first to a neighborhood Catholic school and then to a predominately Muslim school,†Obama wrote in “Audacity.†“In our household, the Bible, the Koran, and the Bhagavad Gita sat on the shelf.â€
Obama’s stepfather was a practicing Muslim.
“Lolo followed a brand of Islam that could make room for the remnants of more ancient animist and Hindu faiths,†Obama recalled. “He explained that a man took on the powers of whatever he ate: One day soon, he promised, he would bring home a piece of tiger meat for us to share.â€
“It was to Lolo that I turned to for guidance and instruction,†Obama recalled. “He introduced me as his son.â€
Although Obama wrote of “puzzling out the meaning of the muezzin’s call to evening prayer,†he was not raised as a Muslim, according to the senator’s office.
Nor was he raised as a Christian by his mother, a white American named Ann Dunham who was deeply skeptical of religion.
“Her memories of the Christians who populated her youth were not fond ones,†Obama wrote. “For my mother, organized religion too often dressed up closed-mindedness in the garb of piety, cruelty and oppression in the cloak of righteousness.â€
Sorry, but a bunch of out-of-contexts quotes proves nothing at all. (not to mention that the quotes are NOT from Audacity of Hope, but a mixture of sentences from both books.
Just an update on our "Poll" that you may find amusing...
Out of the "Yes to impeach Obama votes:
16 joined TODAY when they voted and have zero post history.
6 joined YESTERDAY when they voted and (still) have zero post history.
Of those who voted "No" all have established accounts and post often.
So once you take into account the 22 shell votes thus far (I think we know who this is) the poll is quite different. I always wondered why these polls were so close, and now I know.
Tisk tisk....

Republicans are so desperate to put down Obama, that they get people from other forums to join City-Data just to vote YES in your poll.
The Republican Party is such a joke !!!
Meanwhile, every one of the 47 people who voted NO have been with City-Data from well before your poll was created. Most have been here for many months.
Pathetic. They are just a waste of space and time.

Can I spell DESPERATE?
This is absolutely pathetic. It only goes to show what I've suspected all along, that we have a couple of right wing posters here that spam this place up with multiple accounts day in and day out. Again, I think it's pretty clear who it is.
Thread after thread they cry about the Democrats and how they "stole" the election with Acorn. Then turn around and register 21 (so far) fake accounts to push a poll in their favor. It would be hilarious if it weren't so sad. This is their version of democracy I suppose.
On what grounds should he be impeached? What has he done to deserve it? I am no big fan of Obama but so far his failings are just that failings.
I disagree with most of the policies he is implementing. But guess what? The people who voted him in wanted a lot of these things.
He inherited a broken economy. Not all his fault although as an elected rep at the time he contributed. So did about 98% of the other elected reps.
The people to blame are the party hardliners who refuse to think outside of the box. Party hardiners from both major parties are the blame.
Read the posts on this forum. When they cornored they use the excuse well Bush did this or that. Or Clinton did this or that. As if this makes it ok for Obama to do the same or worse.
60% of Americans do not agree with the Health reform bill. Most do not agree with many if not most of what our elected reps are doing. Yet come election day they will receive the vote.
Are all of these ramblings supposed to mean something?
He's taking quotes from both of Obama's books out of context and trying to use them to 'prove' that he's a "radical Muslim". Having read both books in their entirety, his nonsense is simply not working here.
I see it's already been pointed out All sock puppets. This happened during the election with a poll a certain user would post every week or so, Obama vs. McCain. I noticed that as soon as Obama started winning in the poll, suddenly McCain would catch up and just barely win. When a poll is not public, it's always suspect.
Really, an Admin should take a look at that, because they can easily match IP addresses up to find out who created all the sock puppet accounts.
