Obama's Struggle With Typical Liberal Hypocrisy

Obama's Struggle With Typical Liberal Hypocrisy



Clearly much of the liberal Left has long seen...oh, your average non-hard-working black, as nothing more than a piece of a loyal voting bloc. Keep us anesthetized, they feel, with promises of hand outs and government mollycoddling and we will mindlessly check the "D" box on Election Day.

Conservatives are, of course, not a hair less bigoted in their hearts (nor are Independents or anyone else for that matter). But unlike Democrats, Republicans have found a way to play nicely with the ideologically aligned, regardless of the color of their skin.

That, perhaps, is part of the problem; Obama is more his own man than merely a Democratic tool. That he refused to put up a show, and then capitulate, makes him all the more frustrating to those on the Left used to their people of color playing by pre-prescribed rules.



Which is not to say that Obama won't still be elected president. At this point I think there's nothing that he can't do. Though, if so, he will do it despite the best efforts of the typical hypocrisy of the Left.

"But unlike Democrats, Republicans have found a way to play nicely with the ideologically aligned, regardless of the color of their skin." Yeah, that is correct, because the repukes have become a 1 color party... there's a reason minorties flock to the Democratic Party, and it's because all too many repukes are RACISTS.

This article seems to be a bit disjointed and suffering from bouts of confusion, as it seems to condemn Obama because he's not black enough, and then that liberals are racist, blue-collar-exploiters. To say no idealogy is more racist or bigoted than the other is pure bullshit. I do not see homosexual liberals seeking to deny others their rights nor do I see hispanic leaders here trying to condemn the entire actions of white people. The KKK, David Duke, and the Phelps clan are all idealogue right-wingers, and have no welcome in our Democratic Party. It is republican leaders that speak at neo-nazi meetings, condemn other human beings as vile, disgusting sinners merely because of what they do in the bedroom. I take especial offense that this "author" claimed that the "Liberal plantation" (as obvious a racebaiting phrase you will see) will not accept Obama because he is not "black enough." Well, I am an upscale white liberal from a red state that recently decided to say 'fuck it' to evolution in schools, and I whole-heartedly support Obama, not because he is black, but because he is a leader with unquestionable integrity, intelligence, compassion, and tenacity.

John Ridley is a pathetic excuse for a writer.

meaning liberal philosophy is great for this country,but just because someone call's themself a liberal or conservative doesn't tell you where their heart is at.

and I for one, agree with this writer...

about race and elections, they come out with more of the same lies and hypocrisy.

First is there anything the repukes will not blame on liberals like me? We seem to be responsible for every known horror in the universe. From the republican Great Depression to the Bin Laden attacks on 9/11 (Now just who is buddies with the Bin Ladens?), the neocons are back to claiming liberals are the devil. I'm a liberal and I have not eaten any babies or drowned any puppies. Have you?

Next their meme about Obama not being Black enough was introduced by none other than Oxycotin Rush. Last time I looked, Rush Limpball was a repuke. He was the one going around saying Obama was half an African American. So why is this poster claiming it is Liberal hypocrisy when the whole freaking idea of not black enough came from the standard bearer for conservative maniacs?

In psychology it is call projection. A defense mechanism in which one attributes one’s own unacceptable or unwanted thoughts or/and emotions to others. Projection reduces anxiety by allowing the expression of the unwanted subconscious impulses/desires without letting the conscious mind recognize them, Projecting your faults onto someone else.

This trick has been played some many times by the right I'm surprised the poster bought it.

but not fighting the right as a opposition party has merit. Think about it how in the hell are you going to have blacks come out in record numbers in Florida and Ohio. Get screwed out of their vote and the only thing you worry about is whether or not America will be turned off by your defense of a legitimate illegal practice

Your browser may have misdirected you here. This is Democratic Underground.

because they don't like Obama

Makes you wonder how come he's, ya know, winning...

except when it is considered in parts, of which the same is said of any demographic.

The media are so timid and corporate (all at once) that "the Left" is hardly visible at all, except to people who go to union meetings and visit libraries and bookshops, etc.

Obama's success in 2007-08 appears to me as involving his campaign's command of events and is not, strictly speaking, a politically ideologically-driven campaign.

:wtf: are you doing here?
