I heard a bit of the Obama "Race" speech today... says he can't throw his pastor under the bus.. but has no problem tossing his white grandmother to the wolves...
If you think distancing oneself from your pastor is bad... where does calling Grandma a racist stand?
What kind of person is Barack Obama, a half-black man who, in responding to his association with his black out-of-control racist minister, chooses instead to publicly degrade his white grandmother, the person who raised him from the time he was 10 years old?
He says his white grandmother made him cringe when she made stereotype remarks about some black men whom she feared. Isn’t it reasonable to believe his grandmother may have had some reason to fear, at the very least, some black men. After all, she was raising a grandchild who was abandoned by his black father.
There is little information out there about the white half of Barack Obama’s heritage, yet one can find plenty of information about his Kenyan father with little emphasis on the fact that his father abandoned him when he was 6 years old.
Barack Obama appears to be a half-black man who is ungrateful for the white part of his family heritage. Whether or not he acknowledges the fact today, that heritage may likely helped to prepare him for the success he is enjoying today as a black man.
