I know that we must suffer this buffoon his on-the-job training, but is there not a shred of decency in him? Is there not one iota of responsibility, or conscience, or goodness to this Jeremiah Wright disciple? He is inciting instead of calming, which is what a leader does. They picked the wrong case to exploit to their own racist ends, and still he and his thugocracy persist in spite of the facts.
Stoking the flames.
Stoking the failure.
Stoking the lack of personal responsibility.
Stoking the dissatisfaction.
Stoking the entitlement class.
Stoking the violence.
War. What else could be his endgame except to pit American against American?

The bloody joke is on all those voters who bought the "uniter" ad copy. All of those voters who cast a vote for Obama, if only to show that we were beyond racism and the 20th century's defects. But what America got was the opposite. Instead, we, as a nation, have been hurled backwards — horribly backwards. I have never known the country to be so race fixed, so race obsessed, so race abused as we are under Obama.
What an ugly transformation he has orchestrated. It is shocking. His sanction of "Every F***ing Cop Is A Target," of the mindless violence, the beatings of innocent people in the name of Trayvon, is sedition. But predicted: The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration's War on America.
His flapping tongue is too eager to publicly lynch George Zimmerman, but strangely silent on Banghazi, the IRS war on patriots, Fast and Furious, the Muslim Brotherhood, etc. Obama's flapping tongue is strangely silent on the hundreds of young black men murdered by black men. Obama's flapping tongue is strangely silent on the failure of Trayvon Martin's parents.
Obama: Trayvon Martin 'could have been me' NBC News
President Barack Obama made a surprise appearance at the White House
Friday to discuss African-Americans' reaction to last weekend's verdict
in the George Zimmerman case, saying that “Trayvon Martin "could have
been me 35 years ago.""You know, when Trayvon Martin was first
shot, I said that this could have been my son. Another way of saying
that is Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago. And when you
think about why, in the African- American community at least, there's a
lot of pain around what happened here, I think it's important to
recognize that the African- American community is looking at this issue
through a set of experiences and a history that — that doesn't go
away," he said.
There are very few African-American men in this country who haven’t
had the experience of being followed when they are shopping at a
department store. And that includes me. There are very few African
American men who haven’t had the experience of walking across the street
and hearing the locks click on the doors of cars. That happens to me,
at least before I was a senator. There are very few African-Americans
who haven’t had the experience of getting on an elevator and a woman
clutching her purse nervously and holding her breath until she had a
chance to get off. That happens often and I don't want to exaggerate
this, but those sets of experiences inform how the African-American
community interprets what happened one night in Florida and it's
inescapable for people to bring those experiences to bear.”Asked
if the president had thoroughly contemplated his remarks, White House
Press Secretary Jay Carney said, “I don’t think there’s any question,
and you can judge by what he just said and how he said it, he knows what
he thinks and he knows what he feels, and he had not just in the past
week but for a good portion of his life given a lot of thought to these
issues.”In
his first public remarks after the acquittal by a Florida court of
Travyon Martin's shooter, George Zimmerman, President Obama says,
"Trayvon Martin could have been me, 35 years ago."Obama
also suggested that the outcome of the case could have been different if
Martin were white. "If a white male teen would have been involved in
this scenario," he said, "both the outcome and the aftermath might have
been different."The president also nodded to the Justice
Department investigation which is probing whether or not to bring
federal civil rights charges against Zimmerman. But Obama also urged
state and local officials to review their own procedures to see how to
improve their law enforcement practices.He also called for a
review of so-called "Stand Your Ground" laws, a central issue in the
case."If Trayvon Martin was of age and was armed, could he have stood
his ground on that sidewalk?" Obama asked. "If the answer to that
question is at least ambiguous, then it seems to me that we should
examine those laws."Obama said he wanted to “reiterate what I
said on Sunday, which is there are going to be a lot of arguments about
the legal issues in the case. I'll let all the legal analysts and
talking heads address those issues.The judge conducted the trial
in a professional manner. The prosecution and the defense made their
arguments. The jurors were properly instructed that in a case such as
this, reasonable doubt was relevant and they rendered a verdict. And
once the jury's spoken, that's how our system works.”And though
Obama sidestepped the idea of demanding a new, national conversation on
race — and while he said that racism was far from eliminated — the
president ended on an upbeat moment, expressing his view that race
relations are "getting better.""I don’t want us to lose sight
that things are getting better. Each successive generation seems to be
making progress in changing attitudes when it comes to race. I doesn’t
mean that we’re in a post racial society. It doesn’t mean that racism is
eliminated," he said. "But you know, when I talk to Malia and Sasha and
I listen to their friends and I see them interact, they’re better than
we are."Obama added: "We have to be vigilant and we have to work
on these issues, and those of us in authority should be doing everything
we can to encourage the better angels of our nature as opposed to using
these episodes to heighten divisions. But we should also have
confidence that kids these days I think have more sense than we did back
then, and certainly more than our parents did or our grandparents did,
and that along this long, difficult journey, we’re becoming a more
perfect union — not a perfect union, but a more perfect union."

Oh? So is this his admission that he was beating people up, breaking their noses and pinning them to the ground apparently trying to kill them 35 years ago? I don’t recall him mentioning this particular piece of history during the campaign. Can Congress use this statement in impeachment proceedings?

Not to worry. The Race-Baiter-In-Chief just made damn sure that this weekend’s riots…excuse me, rallies…organized by Sharpton will be a loving, healing time for America. He also trashed “stand your ground” laws (which had no part in the Zimmerman case) to make sure no white folks can EVER defend themselves against “the community”.
Yeah, Obama’s power over America is almost total now. He’s permanently divided the races, destroyed the economy, gutted our foreign policy, emboldened our enemies, empowered homosexuals and transvestites while simultaneously telling Christians “stick it”, bowed to Islam, killed our medical system, gotten “this close” to wiping out the second amendment (and he’ll finish that job soon), amassed more power over a country than any leader in history…so I would say he is the most successful President ever.
And he’s not finished…

The so-called president of the United States is a gangster. As we feared, his real colors are emerging in high relief this year. Apparently, race war will keep the spotlight off his administration’s efforts to turn the country into a gulag.
And 2017? Watch—he’ll still be in office. Hillary should throw in the towel. So should the GOP; they’re about to vote themselves extinct anyway.
Obama should be impeached for this alone—for fomenting racial tension and civic disorder, and encouraging violence and disregard of the law. But why should I expect he’d do otherwise? He’s a gangster. He doesn’t give a damn about the law.
One of the reasons he gets away with this is that he’s a nice-looking, well-spoken guy with a reassuring voice. The same thing’s in operation with Tsarnaev. Shallow people can’t see the evil beneath the outer persona. Ted Bundy was a nice-looking guy, and murdered all those women because they couldn’t imagine he was a psychopath.

Obama is a leftwing ideologue and a little man who forgets that he is supposed to be the president to all the American people,some nearly 330 million of us. Yet he chooses to use his powerful bully pulpit to sew division within, and between the races even though there is not a shred of evidence to show that Zimmerman acted with any racial animosity when he tried to defend himself from the viscous and unwarranted attack by Trayvon Martin. If he was a real president he would confront the hideous World of non stop murders by black on black thugs in his own city of Chicago.
Obama’s comments on this sensitive issue are the most irresponsible and reckless remarks as of yet on the Zimmerman case. For a President to literally ignore the facts in this case can only embolden and encourage more dangerous behavior by those who want to create cay-ous in America.
If he has any sense at all , he will immediately walk his incendiary remarks back.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH from this fool! The American People need to reign this presidents remarks in and fast before there is serious violence.

what a piece of shit…
He could have delivered aspects of his message as a black man differently.
Yet he choose to attack stand your ground and defended the rioting with a mere tepid displeasure regarding the violence. Nothing on the death threats to Zimmerman, his family and lawyers, nothing about the race baiters agitating for more tragedies.
He also alluded to the myth (dispelled in court) that Zimmerman threatened Trayvon.
He did say something true though: That blacks see these types of incidents within an historical context. Yet failed to acknowledge that this is profiling as much the other profiling within statistical contexts.
Both wrong morally but existing naturally and without fault or mal intent.

Very grim analysis, indeed. I agree that America has been captured by a domestic enemy. Winston Churchill’s words are very applicable for our times. Hopefully, they inspire us, also, for such a time as this. (I have taken the liberty of modifying it to apply to our current struggle against the rising ugly head of tyranny): I expect that the Battle of ‘America’ is about to begin. Upon this battle depends the survival of Christian civilization. Upon it depends our own ‘American’ way of life, and the long continuity of our institutions and our Empire. The whole fury and might of the enemy must very soon be turned on us. ‘Obama’ knows that he will have to break us or lose the war. If we can stand up to him, all ‘America’ may be freed and the life of the world may move forward into broad, sunlit uplands.
But if we fail, then the whole world, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new dark age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science. Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves, that if the ‘America’ last for a thousand years, men will still say, This was their finest hour.

What I got from his remarks mostly was his personal attempt to explain to white America the reaction of so much of the black community, its “interpretation” of the case being based on historical and personal experiences of bigotry. IOW, he was acknowledging that the reaction to the Zimmerman trial has been emotional and not rational.
His message to black America is he’s acknowledging their problems exist, which he has ignored so far much to the ire of black organizations and leaders. But he’s telling the black community that no federal program is going to change things, fortunately that racism is not as big a problem for younger people, and that people on the local level in community organizations have to deal with the alienation of young black men.
He’s also changing the subject somewhat to questioning what justifies the use of lethal force? How do you prove your life was threatened or you just felt it was threatened? I don’t know the answer to that.

Don’t we all wish he was Trayvon 35 years ago. We wouldn’t have to suffer the indignity of having this piece of trash in our White House. We need to take it down and build a new one. It’s tainted now.

So Obama thinks the whole case is about race – even though George Zimmerman is about the least racist person one would come across in USA!!
Just think about this. When the whole resource of FBI, state law enforcement, and the media are devoted to investigating whether a person has racial prejudice, it is likely something will turn up. Something! ( Think Paula Deen! ) With Zimmerman, they found nothing. Natta. Zimmerman is a guy with absolutely no racial prejudice. Zero.
Yet, Obama think Trayvon has been targetted and shot because he was black. Why? Because Obama has been educated on Critical Race Theory at Harvard. According to these ‘scholars’ race can NEVER be disregarded in the Law. Everything HAS to be interpreted thru skin colors. Just as Marxist explain everything thru econmics, these ‘scholars’ analyze everything thru the lens of skin colors.

Beating people up and pummeling people when they are down on the ground with intention to kill, etc. all those are nothing compared to the great question race that permeates the whole American society – according to Obama.
As his Attorney General, Eric Holder puts it, ‘Americans are cowards when it comes to race’ – because they are afraid to admit that they are racists even though they are!! ( Critical Race Theory ).
For Obama and Eric Holder, Americans have to first come clean and admit that they are racists before we can start the dialogue and start fomulating political solutions.

He also called for a review of so-called “Stand Your Ground” laws, a central issue in the case.”If Trayvon Martin was of age and was armed, could he have stood his ground on that sidewalk?” Obama asked. “If the answer to that question is at least ambiguous, then it seems to me that we should examine those laws.”
………………………………………………………………..
It really pisses me off that “stand your ground” keeps being brought up. This case had nothing to do with “stand your ground” and the defense never used that argument. This false claim is just being used to mislead the public into believing that George simply shot Martin for no other reason than feeling threatened, in other words he racially profiled Martin. Ignored is the fact that Martin was pummeling George’s head repeatedly into the pavement at the time he shot him. Ignored is George’s bloodied face and head. The media has deliberately distorted this case from the beginning, and even after the trial and all the facts came out, they continue to push this narrative. I guess they count on their viewers not paying attention to details, not having paid attention to the trial.

Not a chance. Obama grew up in ALL white surrounding. White mother, white grandparents, etc. He went to the most exclusive private school in Hawaii and most of his friends, male and female, were whites. He has had almost no contact with violent black subculture from which Trayvon Martin springs from.

How is saying If I had a son he would look like Trayvon “another way of saying” Trayvon could have been me, 35 years ago?
Is that a muslim thing? That the son literally IS the father?
I don’t think most Americans think the son IS the father.
Why can’t this president do or say anything right?
Because he’s a black muslim president of a white Judeo-Christian nation?

Almost every white person I know living in New York over the past thirty years was mugged by a black person. It is far more dangerous for a white person to walk in a black neighborhood then for a black person to walk in a white neighborhood. I am sorry if the fear in my eyes offends Obama, but he really scares me. This is about taking guns away and taking money away from white people to give to black people. It is about affirmative action and government privilege. This will not substitute for glorifying a criminal culture and the destruction of the black family by leftist policies that denigrate conservative values. I know so many decent hard workingblack people who are terrorized by gangs and criminals that this White House wants to excuse. Look at the chaos in Chicago. That is what the president wants for the whole country.

THIS WAS A SIGNAL
by a politically desperate and badly failing president that hate crime charges won’t be forthcoming against George Zimmerman. It was nothing more than demagogic pandering to the insane Zimmerman lynch mob to assure them that he’s with them though unable to move against Zimmerman-apparently nothing useful is coming in on Holder’s Zimmerman Hate Mail Tips Line.

Obama also neglects to mention the hundreds of black mob attacks on whites which have taken place around the country during his presidency. If he was a real American president, he would be mounting his bully pulpit and speaking out against this violence, but instead his silence gives tacit approval to it. The msm should be reporting on this so Americans can be prepared to protect themselves, and authorities would be forced to deal with it. Instead white people in this country are being thrown to these wolfpacks of rampaging black “youth”.

He could have been Trayvon 35 years ago? Let’s see…36 years ago, he was using dope/maryjane and acting with little or no responsibility.

I’m reading this page from England. I wish you all the best. A beautifully reworked quote. We are fighting our own internal war here against Marxism as well as an imported religion and culture, with which the political Left is forging close and subversive links. It is indeed a fight for the survival of Western Civilisation.
As for Obama I have noticed on my visits to the USA anti-English sentiments from him; on getting to the White House one of his first acts was I think to remove the bust of Winston Churchill and send it back to us. A deliberate insult. And in a speech I heard him make to University graduates he made references to the ‘terror’ of the Redcoats. I don’t know if that is standard fare in US education but it didn’t go down well with me. Self-loathing white liberals, including the BBC here still love him.
