Maher Believes Obama Would Be Better President ‘If He Was Fully Black’

Newsbusters underscores this companion line:
“There’s a white man in him holding him back because everything is half-assed.”
Noel Sheppard slams the double standard:
What’s really hysterical about this is earlier in the program, Maher accused members of the Tea Party of being racist.
I guess it isn‘t racist to say there’s a white man inside the president holding him back.
On the other hand, just imagine the uproar if Maher said Obama’s problem is that he was half white and that “there’s a [black] man in him holding him back because everything is half-assed.”

Posted on September 18, 2010 at 12:45pmObama would be a better president if he was not a radical, socialist, America hating anti-colonialist with a big chip on his shoulder who has no experience in the real world. He is so far behind the learning curve that he will never catch up. As for bill maher, what you see is what you get, garbage in, garbage out.

It will take a little longer to kill off all the WHITE FARMERS here, and issue 100 Trillion Dollar Federal Reserve Notes that won’t buy a loaf of bread. But then we can all learn to eat Dirt like the Zimbabweians do now. Yeah, I‘d say he’s got a perfect role model picked out.

Posted on September 18, 2010 at 12:07pmPathetic. And Bill Maher’s goofy, left-wing nutjob audience is right there with him, yucking it up. If this had been Sean Hannity or Bill O’Reilly or Glenn Beck saying the same thing, Bill Maher would be running clips of their comment on HBO and slamming them for “racism” while the audience cheered in agreement. Hypocrisy: Exhibit A.
Report Post »DE411Q15
Posted on September 18, 2010 at 12:06pmAlways consider the source. In Maher‘s case I’d suggest he meets his need to entertain a certain group of people. Not sure if those same audiences would appreciate the opposite role or, indeed, be able to survive it. These people fail to consider the best interests of their country; or is it in the best interests of any country to divide the discussion along racial lines when the more productive discussion would cover intelligence, preparation, and longer term consequences of action?
I‘d ask why we can’t see the President’s credentials; the same which would be required if you or I tried to run for this or any office–our degrees, our professional credientials such as license to practice, and our accomplishments vetted by a third party clearly outside the circle of friends. Facility with words fails to create an unlimited intelligence. I’d be far more interested in getting the people behind this President out of “office.” At this point the President isn’t really relevant; it’s who driving him and the apparently intended ends. Whose treasure will we become if this administration succeeds in turning our society to trash?

The puppet masters who are shortly going to throw the POTUS under the bus, are puppets themselves, and doing the bidding of some global cabal intent on bringing the earth’s population under one governance.. Who are these men? Are they Sharia freaks, or are they chinese? Maybe they are the sons of Satan. They have got to be exposed whoever they are.

Posted on September 18, 2010 at 1:11pmYeah, the tide has turned on poor ol’ Obama. But you must admit, he was able to do a fair bit of damage, and he has made history. He’s also encouraged, not a few, liberal scholars to attempt to change history,(a number of judges, too). Most of all I’m going to miss the way his empty hands flop around when he come down the steps of his helicopter. I know I can take him, even with a bad back and knee surgery. I see him as a total wuss.
