    I'm sure it's been covered, but we need to bump that garamet thread off the top page, seriouly people. :jayzus:

    So, in essence, the next time Marso makes a comment regarding those "typical Muslims" and how they're all terrorists, Obama has his back. :techman:

    Seriously though, how can anyone really back Black Jesus after watching him throw his grandmother under the bus like that?

    I was just going to comment on this, and now I have a place to :soma:

    Obama's speech was inspired, but everything he has said since has been foot in mouth. Can you imagine a white politician saying that something is "typical of a black person"?

    Yes, I can. I don't have to - it's happened numerous times.

    And every single fucking time the same people that are defending Obama absolutely excoriated the 'racists', most often driving them from their jobs or public life.

    But Rev. Wright, that's just 'reverse-racism.' That's OK.

    Obama has done us a great service when it comes to race relations.

    It's just not the service he thought he would be providing.

    I wonder why he lets such bullshit slip in (that's not a coincidence, not with a speaker like him). It's not like he has to win over blacks on the loony fringe.

    On the other hand, the other guy tries to suck up to his loony fringe too...

    Wordforge has taught me that I'm not a typical white person.

    I don't own any guns. :ramen:

    When I see someone I don't know on the street....I feel...apathy.

    I usually don't pay much attention unless others are drawing attention to themselves somehow.

    I guess I am supposed to inherently subconciously fear black people or something but I don't. :shrug:

    My dad bought if for her back in the '70s. So, it was in then.

    Yeah, that Chuck Berry vid was awesome - all the bullshit fancy production and modern technology we have today but an old black and white raw video of a real performer just "doing his thing" blows them out of the water. Fuck MTV (and versions 2,3,4, Sucker Free, etc).

    BTW, regarding some of the "typical white people" clapping along to the beat....what song were they listening to? :P

    I think its human nature to fear what we don't know.

    But according to Obama, only the 'typical white people' do that.

    Weel, the 197s were a "special" time, a time best forgotten.

    Except for in the rock and roll scene.

    Of course Obama's grandmother is wary of the people on the street.

    They could have just came from Rev. Wright's sermon and are looking for some payback. :soma:

    No. The '60s.

    you know what they say about the '60s, right?

    If you can remember them, you weren't really there.

    It was a good time to be alive. You could whip a man in the streets, call a spade a spade, and always move west if you had enough of the Man's shit.
