Waiting for O’Donnell’s Scathing Denunciation of Obama’s Racism :::crickets chirping:::
This was the worst political speech of my lifetime. Because this man stood there and said to you “this is the faith of my fathers.” And you, and none of these commentators who liked this speech realized that the faith of his fathers is a racist faith. As of 1978 it was an officially racist faith, and for political convenience in 1978 it switched. And it said “OK, black people can be in this church.” He believes, if he believes the faith of his fathers, that black people are black because in heaven they turned away from God, in this demented, Scientology-like notion of what was going on in heaven before the creation of the earth.via NewsBusters
I can’t wait until little Larry applies his laser-like racism detector on Barak Obama. If there is anyone whose father’s faith disqualifies him, in my mind, as even a member of the Senate, let alone as president , it would be the man whose father and stepfather were Islamic, as well as a brother who just converted to Islam. (Yes, dear little liberal readers- Islam is a problem) But if it’s racism Mr. O’Donnell is so alarmed about, than where is his outcry about the racism that permeates Obama’s writings, family, history, and current church home.
Regarding Obama’s book “Dreams”, Steve Sailor, at The American Conservative, writes:
A racial group is a large extended family, and Obama’s book is primarily about his rejection of his supportive white maternal extended family in favor of his unknown black paternal extended family.
For the few willing to read all 442 pages, he offers important testimony about the enduring glamour of anti-white anger. It’s a bitter counterweight to the sunny hopes so widely invested in his candidacy as the man whose election as president would somehow help America finally “transcend race.”
In reality, Obama provides a disturbing test of the best-case scenario of whether America can indeed move beyond race.
[...]
Even his celebrated acceptance of Christianity in his mid-20s turns out to be an affirmation of African-American emotional separatism…..Obama falls under the spell of a leftist black nationalist preacher, Jeremiah A. Wright, who preaches African-American unity through antipathy toward whites. Reverend Wright remains a major influence on the presidential candidate.
Perhaps O’Donnell approves the inherent racism in the “afro-centricity” preached at Obama’s church, who proudly proclaim: “We are an African people, and remain “true to our native land,” the mother continent, the cradle of civilization.” I do think I’d prefer a president who received his spiritual succor from a congregation that considered themselves to be an American people and who considered America the land to whom they would “be true”.
Sadly, it appears Obama’s maternal white blood conflicted him greatly. I can’t imagine what the collective white blood of this American nation will inspire.
“I ceased to advertise my mother’s race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites,” he wrote.
It is no surprise that he and Oprah have the same audience - an audience of dedicated victims, appeasers and self-flagellating guilty white folks.
Harris-Lacewell said such expressions of distrust toward whites will not hurt Obama in the Democratic presidential primaries, which are dominated by liberal voters.
“To win the Democratic nomination, he’s got to get a part of the progressive, anti-war, white folks,” she said. “And those white folks tend to be suspicious of any black person who wouldn’t be suspicious of white people.”
Such liberals would have little basis for suspicion after reading some of Obama’s conclusions about the white race, which he once described as “that ghostly figure that haunted black dreams.”
[...]
It was into my father’s image, the black man, son of Africa, that I’d packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.”
“Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.” Gee, what illustrious men. But essentially, they espoused a mixture of black supremacist and separatism, all cloaked in the unassailable and priestly robes of “civil rights activists”; socialist and communists all. But those intellectual fathers probably impress a guilty white man like O’Donnell. And I really do not give a damn about their politically correct resumes - these men certainly did not and do not possess “attributes” that I want in an American president. But Obama’s reverence for their words and actions certainly explains his inability to raise his hand to his heart during the pledge of allegiance to America. His allegiance is elsewhere.
Obama wrote that in high school, he and a black friend would sometimes speak disparagingly “about white folks this or white folks that, and I would suddenly remember my mother’s smile, and the words that I spoke would seem awkward and false.”
As a result, he concluded that “certain whites could be excluded from the general category of our distrust.”
Well, there you go. Larry O’Donnell most certainly is one of those “certain whites”. Indeed, I’d guess that Oprah’s audience also qualifies to be amongst this special class of “certain self-loathing whites”.
During college, Obama disapproved of what he called other “half-breeds” who gravitated toward whites instead of blacks. And yet after college, he once fell in love with a white woman, only to push her away when he concluded he would have to assimilate into her world, not the other way around. He later married a black woman.
[...]
After graduating from college, Obama eventually went to Chicago to interview for a job as a community organizer. His racial attitudes came into play as he sized up the man who would become his boss.
“There was something about him that made me wary,” Obama wrote. “A little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.”
[...]
Such candid racial revelations abound in “Dreams,” which was first published in 1995, when Obama was 34 and not yet in politics. By the time he ran for his Senate seat in 2004, he observed of that first memoir: “Certain passages have proven to be inconvenient politically.”
Please note that Obama didn’t renounce such statements, he only regretted the political toll that they might take. Perhaps he underestimates the power of white guilt. Or maybe white guilt is just the very currency that he is banking on. Larry O’Donnell is just one of too many PC addled fools in the media who will, no doubt, make hefty deposits in that bank.
