Oh I get it! I get it! Its because he's black right? OMG SO clever! FTW

Obama was the one who said that Trayvon Martin could have been his son. Hopefully that view changes if people learn about Trayvon's likely school records and rap sheet(s).

Sorry if the truth hurts. Leftists excuse such depravity as "authentic blackness".
Or by black kids who lace into their classmates who are striving to learn and study for "acting white." See definition of "acting white" (link):
a term used with black people to call this person a sell-out. Bascially if you listen to any song not made by a black person, use the word "like" in a sentence more than once, and things even as good as getting good grades.

Your post certainly didn't sound that way when you threw in race being the reason for my comment. That comment will never be out of place after Obama injected himself into yet another local issue because of the racial component.
Just like with Holder and "his people", you have those two stirring up racial animus the likes I've not seen for decades.
So for future reference, "acted stupidly" - "if I had a son" or "my people" seem out of left field, you will now know in advance what it is in reference to.
If you think those comments are uncalled for, then make sure to write Obama & Holder and tell them so!

I had hoped Obama would use his bully pulpit to convince the black underclass of the self-defeating nature of dropping out, drug use, pregnancy and resisting law enforcement. Unfortunately he has stirred the pot instead.

i genuinely think he is a traitor.

Obama: "Brothers Should Pull Up Their Pants" - CBS News
Direct from the article:
Quote:
"Do feel like people should be penalized?" Sway asked.

"Here is my attitude: I think people passing a law against people wearing sagging pants is a waste of time," Obama responded. "We should be focused on creating jobs, improving our schools, health care, dealing with the war in Iraq, and anybody, any public official, that is worrying about sagging pants probably needs to spend some time focusing on real problems out there. Having said that, brothers should pull up their pants."

He continued: "You are walking by your mother, your grandmother, your underwear is showing. What's wrong with that? Come on. There are some issues that we face, that you don't have to pass a law, but that doesn't mean folks can't have some sense and some respect for other people and, you know, some people might not want to see your underwear — I'm one of them."
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/16/us...bama.html?_r=0

Quote:
“Too many fathers are M.I.A, too many fathers are AWOL, missing from too many lives and too many homes,” Mr. Obama said, to a chorus of approving murmurs from the audience. “They have abandoned their responsibilities, acting like boys instead of men. And the foundations of our families are weaker because of it.”
Thing is this. Underclass types, the hood rat types, they aren't going to listen to anyone who is talking common sense. At this point, the best that decent Blacks can do is separate themselves from hood rats.

"Cottage industry"? Makes even less sense.

Don't bother trying to explain. I'm not interested in the dialogue I'm sure would follow.

After this little thug gets gunned down by police some day, the news will show him in a photo wearing a cap and gown from middle school and a bright innocent smile on his face. His mom will cry to the cameras demanding justice, there will be candle-light vigils for the poor "teen" who was murdered by the evil police.

He's not a thug; he's a liberation fighter.
