The right's hatred for Obama: If it isn't "race", then what is it?

[Procrustes Stretched]

Why do...ignore the right when the they say it's because of his policies?

Maybe it's because normal adults know that people do NOT always say what they mean?

People do not always say what they mean, especially when they think it is uncouth or will be frowned upon by the rest of society.

People use code words and phrases, just ask Ken Mehlman

USATODAY.com - GOP: 'We were wrong' to play racial politics

"Some Republicans gave up on winning the African-American vote, looking the other way or trying to benefit politically from racial polarization," Mehlman said at the annual convention of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "I am here today as the Republican chairman to tell you we were wrong."

We've asked the right wing to explain their hatred for Obama. They've pretty much given up on it because when they attempt to assign a reason, it comes across as "ridiculous".

We hate him because he's a "Muslim". They've stopped saying that because it uncovers their religious intolerance. We know he's not a Muslim. So we don't really hear that too much anymore. Besides, he took out most of al Qaeda and Bin Laden after Republicans let Bin Laden go and stopped looking for him.

We hate him because he's "Communist/Fascist/Marxist" which shows the right doesn't understand the meaning of those words.

We hate him because he went to a church where a preacher said "God Damn America". In context, the preacher saying God damn America is what will happen if we don't follow God's scripture, which puts him in agreement with at least 85% of Republicans.

We hate him because he barely know's Bill Ayers, a man who blew up an office while protesting the Vietnam war. Wow, how could one man cause so much damage? Oh wait, ask Timothy McVeigh. And Ayers did it when Obama was 8 years old, which proves he was "in on it". Funnier still, they both worked at the Annenberg Foundation, a right wing, conservative foundation, but on separate boards. They rarely met. But there has to be "something". There just has to be. There has to.

We hate him because he is pulling out of Iraq/he stayed in Iraq - I wish they would make up their minds.

We hate him because he increased the national debt. Bush and the Republicans passed an enormous tax cut targeting the rich DURING A TIME OF WAR which passed through that "reconciliation" they seem to hate so much. They passed a "drugs for votes" bill again through reconciliation, Bush did nothing after Katrina, never included the cost of either war in his budgets, thereby making incredible lies to the American people about the cost of the wars. Republicans know that Obama couldn't just "end" Bush policies, they know it doesn't work that way, yet they still accuse him of following the worst Bush policies, which of course, were ALL Bush policies.

They hate him for his stimulus package. Over a hundred Republicans took stimulus money and created thousands of jobs. Republicans like to pretend that once the railroad is build, there are no more jobs. Except now, goods can be transported and workers can work from farther away. The same for bridges and roads and broadband.

They hate him for saving the auto industry. Imagine where we would be without that entire industry.

None of these reasons make sense. As hard as they try to spin Obama's success into failure, it's hollow. Too unbelievable. Look how hard they tried to suggest that Obama only got Bin Laden because of the Republican failed policies of torture. John McCain shot that down. That and the tape of Bush insisting he doesn't think about Bin Laden any more. I believe Bush.

So why all the hate? Could the Republican Party being 90% white and based in the Confederate South have anything to do with it?

Many of the most racist pics were used by Republicans for mass mailouts during the campaign. Of course, they said, "Oh, we're sorry", which of course, didn't stop them from doing it again.

One has to wonder, have the Republicans convinced themselves it's not about race?

Why do you ignore the right when the they say it's because of his policies? Doesn't that fit with your stupid ass mantra, deenie?

Because they won't name those policies. And the policies they do name only exist in their delusions.

Really? How about his Cap and Tax vision? How about that big stimulus that was shoved on us? How about obamacare? How about all the spending and all the borrowing?
You mean nobody has mentioned any of that to you over the last 3 years? REALLY!!!!!!
Not once was there anything about Obama's race mentioned....you want to know why????? Because it isn't about race, asshole!!!!!!

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder and the Obama administration have devised and implemented a plan that amounts to a gun registration scheme.

The scheme requires federally licensed firearms retailers in states bordering Mexico to report all sales of two or more semiautomatic rifles within five consecutive business days, if the rifles are larger than .22 caliber and use detachable magazines. Yet, under existing law, Holder’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives has full access to every record of every firearm transaction by every licensed dealer, whether during a bona fide criminal investigation or simply to enforce compliance with record keeping requirements. This reporting scheme would create a registry of owners of many of today's most popular rifles--firearms owned by millions of Americans for self-defense, hunting and other lawful purposes.



Last March, U.S. Sens. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) and Richard Burr (R-N.C.) introduced S. 570 -- "a bill to prohibit the DOJ from tracking and cataloguing the purchases of multiple rifles and shotguns."

Thank Gaea we have leftists to tell us what people mean.

And I'm sure it's just coincidence that leftists interpret what people say as to mean things that serve the leftist agenda.

I know it's okay for the left to be racist, because it's the left doing it.

You personally not liking policies is not an explanation of the level of contempt against this particular President. The policies you have just mentioned are hardly radical. In fact, the first two are recycled Republican ideas. C4C was lauded as an overwhelming success across the political spectrum.

All of that is not really the point. There is a disrespect for the office that has not been seen by other Presidents, including ones that governed to the left of Obama.

Why?

Disrespect for the man? Hardly unprecedented. Were you asleep during the Bush Administration?

The right's hatred for Obama: If it isn't "race", then what is it?

Simple partisan politics.

To the victor goes the spoils, the GOP is mad they missed out on the spoils. The spoils being the massive, comprehensive authority of the Imperial President, an Imperial Presidency republicans worked hard to create and exploit.

Are there those in the GOP who hate Obama because of his race? Of course. But it would be wrong to argue that’s the motive of most republicans, as it is indeed purely partisan.

But it’s also incumbent upon republicans to ascertain why racists are attracted to the GOP and conservatism in general.

I don't like obamas policies. Does that make them black too?

Not the same. Disrespect for Bush, absolutely. Rampant, nearly ubiquitous and well deserved.

HOWEVER. Not in such a public sphere. You didn't have POLITICIANS shouting out "YOU LIE" during his address of Congress. You didn't have POLITICIANS sticking a finger in his face and shouting at him in public. You didn't have REPORTERS (Eg Oreilly) interrupting him and attempting to steer his answers during an interview.

It's the President for Christs sake. You don't do this kind of shit. You show a dignified level of respect for the office.

The right's hatred for Obama: If it isn't "race", then what is it?

Why do transparent fraudulent liberoidal hacks like rderp, here, keep PRETENDING to "ask" that fraudulent "question" when they have no intention of ever listening to ANY answer that challenges their preconceived ignorant notions?

(A) rderp, you scumbag, I am a conservative -- one of those on the "right." I detest the President's policies and policy preferences and socialist/Marxist inclinations. I do not hate the person.

(B) WHY I detest his policies and policy preferences and inclinations is because I deem them to be harmful to the Republic.

(C) Your false premise that it has ANYTHING to do with race APPEARS to be "founded" upon the fact that SOME dickwads who detest the President do so on the basis of race. Yes, asshole. There ARE racists in the world.

(D) Ascribing that racist shit to all of those whose politics YOU disagree with is ignorant, stupid, dishonest, hackish and quite typical of you and your disregard for honesty and logic.

As for you, rderp, you, remain an unpersuasive hack, you twerpy fart-bubble biter.

And yes, this President is a flop. He's a failure. And his policies for the most part are injurious to this Republic. Voting him OUT of the job is completely rational and appropriate. Race still has nothing to do with it.

They're not. Repetition of leftist horseshit is not proof of anything but that you blindly swallow leftist horseshit.
