Back to blaming his racial background

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) on Friday strongly suggested that members of Congress are making it difficult for President Obama to raise the debt ceiling because of his race.
"I do not understand what I think is the maligning and maliciousness [toward] this president,” said Jackson Lee, a member of the Congressional Black Caucus. “Why is he different? And in my community, that is the question that we raise. In the minority community that is question that is being raised. Why is this president being treated so disrespectfully? Why has the debt limit been raised 60 times? Why did the leader of the Senate continually talk about his job is to bring the president down to make sure he is unelected?”
Earlier in her speech, Jackson Lee said Obama has been targeted unlike any other president.

"I am particularly sensitive to the fact that only this president — only this one, only this one — has received the kind of attacks and disagreement and inability to work, only this one," said Jackson Lee from the House floor.
"Read between the lines," she continued. "What is different about this president that should put him in a position that he should not receive the same kind of respectful treatment of when it is necessary to raise the debt limit in order to pay our bills, something required by both statute and the 14th amendment?"
Jackson Lee concluded by saying that she hoped someone would step up and say that what appears obvious to her is not in fact true.
"I hope someone will say that what it appears to be is not in fact accurate," said Lee. "But historically it seems to be nothing more."

How come nobody has taken a true survey as to why we don't like Obama?
Probably because there's no simple reason, nothing that could be stated with a short one sentence answer. It could be runaway spending, hypocrisy, arrogance, inexperience, broken promises, lack of transparency, socialist practices, ignoring the Peoples' will, failure to do anything about unemployment, war in Libya, ignoring our Constitution, pushing immigration "reform", failure to secure our borders, etc.
But I can just about bet my best rifle that race doesn't have shit to do with it.

  1. Lets talk ab out how the leftist crapped all over Bush for 8 years, the vitrol and anger that Bush received from the left far exceeds anything that is said about Obungler. Obummer hides behind his race, Bush was crapped on, a movie was made about assassination of Bush and nothing was said. Bush had the code pink wingnuts follow him around, one set up by his house in Texas and the media fell all over sheehan( the code pink person that used her sons death benefits for her own causes and didn't even get a headstone for her son.) Back then they said that "dissent is patriotic" when people protested Bush, now when we protest Obummer, we are racist. Who has the double standard here?

  2. MrG's got it right. The MSM and those on the left opened up on Bush with both barrels during his entire 8 yrs in office. Let's face a simple truth---they play the race card when they have nothing else to fall back on!
