Some liberals ask “if Obama loses is it because he’s black?” But I think the better question should be “if Obama wins was it because he’s black?”
If Obama and his followers want equality then there is no such thing as going too hard against him. he should be criticized like all the others who have gone before him, Republican and Democrat. He should be scrutinized like all the others before him, Republican and Democrat. He should be treated like anyone else. But if the MSM is pulling punches on Obama its because THEY are the ones who are acting like a racist, not those of us who point out his many failings.
Its actually kind of funny, equality is just like freedom. They both have a price, and sometimes you may not like that price. With freedom its personal responsibility. you can do what you want with your life, but the result of your actions and decisions fall back on you…not the rest of us. If you fall down because of your decisions then there are plenty of charitable people in this world who will help to pick you up. But in the liberals eyes we should be REQUIRED to pick you back up, it doesn’t matter if the decisions you made were so inherently wrong and destructive. Some people talk big about freedom this and freedom that but when it comes down to it they want the freedom to do whatever they want and they want all of us to be held responsible for the result.
With equality, if you are considered equal then the fact that your running for office shouldn’t change anything. you shouldn’t be treated with kid gloves. Behavior shouldn’t change. if a woman enters a male construction site as a employee, behavior shouldn’t change if she is a equal right? the men should act as they normally did. but thats not reality….because many people don’t want to be treated as equals, it gives them the edge up to NOT be treated as equal.
Look at Obama, is he not reaping the benefits of NOT being treated as a equal or what?:
COLUMBUS, OHIO — When John McCain apologized to Barack Obama this week for the comments of his warm-up act at a rally, it was not the first time — and probably won’t be the last — that the most competitive black presidential candidate in U.S. history has heard the words, “I’m sorry.”
In his yearlong quest to win the White House, the Democratic senator from Illinois has changed the rules of political engagement, forcing his rivals to step delicately in a normally no-holds-barred arena.
“Democrats have to be careful in navigating the way they deal with Obama,” said David Doak, a Democratic campaign consultant who has advised Hillary Rodham Clinton. “They don’t want to get too rough with him in the primary, because they don’t want to alienate blacks and have them stay at home in the general.”
No political consultant, she wrote, “will think it easy — or professionally desirable — to take him down in a low manner.” The upshot: Simply by the fact of who he is, and the color of his skin, Obama has taken a weapon out of his rivals’ arsenal and put it to his own use.
So this is how you treat him as a equal? Blacks would stay home if he is attacked as any other candidate would be? The MSM treads lightly around Obama, and they call this equality?
And McCain fell right into the trap:
Todd Shaw, an assistant professor of political science and African American studies at the University of South Carolina, said that Obama was the immediate beneficiary when McCain pledged to conduct “a respectful debate.”
“If [McCain] goes back on that, or his supporters go back on that,” Shaw said, “that’s where the Obama campaign could say, ‘Well, we had hoped that Sen. McCain had observed these rules of engagement, but he hasn’t.’ “
So I go back to my question….if he wins will it be because he is black? He has no ideas, no experience, and wants to turn the time machine back to 1978. How is it the man this far ahead?
It’s sure not equality, I will tell you that.
