It is my opinion that this country hasn’t been in such bad shape in regards to race since the sixties or seventies. With the arrival of our first black president we have seen all the years of progress torn apart.

Why is that so? Of course a lot of it started when the country was exposed to the kill-whitey church that Obama spent twenty years in. We remember of course Barrack’s claim that he never heard such hateful speech in those decades he went to service there. However, we gave the man a chance anyway. That said more about us as Americans than it did about that Preacher or Obama.

Another spark with this race debate was watching our president jump on a bunch of white cops and take the side of a black professor before he even knew the facts. When that happened, millions of whites that voted for him were incredulous. I wasn’t; I remembered the church he went to, but others were shocked. For the first time, white America got a look into the window of our president’s soul.

Watching the president turn this into some racial profiling debate was like Winnie the Pooh blaming Nemo for stealing his honey. Nemo is a fish; it’s not even in the same ballpark. It was apples and carrots that he was debating there. It did, however, show white America where his thought process was.

In the bigger view, what stokes the race fire in America more than anything is liberal white people on TV. The anemic intellectuals that keep saying over and over, that people who don’t agree with this health care approach are racists, must take the blame. They certainly own a lot of the blame. To watch some bias pundit proclaim that we all are upset at town hall meetings because Obama is black is gasoline on a fire.

It is more than insulting; it is grounds for a fistfight. Making believe that this country did not have the same reaction when the Clintons tried this is disingenuous. It is not just one or two people out there that claim if we disagree with this president, that we are racists. It is a whole frame of thought that has taken hold. If someone points the finger at you and says that you are a racist, immediately you are put in a defensive stance.

So let’s take the offensive and debunk that misnomer. Nobody cares what color the president’s skin is; when he is wrong he is wrong. When we don’t agree, all it means is that we don’t agree. For a lot of us we simply don’t trust this man. We just don’t believe a word he says. What do you expect? When we see the man stand in front of a crowd, live on TV, tell them he never said he was for a single payer system and in the same news cycle watch a tape of him saying that very thing; it is clear.

The man will not tell us the truth. When he tells us that ninety-five percent of the people won’t see a tax increase and than levies Cap and Trade on our energy companies who will double our power bill, what do you expect? When we watch him swear to an oath on the Bible to uphold the constitution and than give us dozens of Czars, what do you expect? Are you to tell us this man has taught constitutional law but doesn’t know Czars are a violation of the Constitution? What are we supposed to do when we hear him complain how he was left with a trillion dollar debt and his answer to this is to triple that debt? I can go on and on here.

It is now a fact not an opinion that his actions do not match his words. Over and over again he rains untruths down on the American landscape. Now you tell me, how on Earth does any of this have anything to do with the color of his skin? I bet anyone a dollar to a donut this guy loses at least ten million votes the next time around. Do you really believe white America will vote for this man again in mass numbers? What planet are you from? The man is toast next time around at the ballet box and the only thing that will stop that from happening is the Republicans’ lack of ability to produce even the most average of candidates.

I’ll tell you this, whatever his wish list is on what he wants to do as president, it better get done in this four year term. I say this to you three years out. No way he wins reelection. No possible way, and it has nothing to do with the color of his damn skin.
