Barack Obama: The Color Of Money

Last week, presumptive Democratic Presidential candidate Barack Obama, tired of constantly addressing the real issues facing this country, decided to once again play the race card. Here is what he said about the McCain campaign on July 30th, while speaking in Missouri:

"What they're going to try to do is make you scared of me," Obama said. "You know, he doesn't look like all those other presidents on the dollar bills."

I agree with that statement. Barack Obama is not green, nor gray, and I have yet to see him in a powdered wig - although who knows what goes on when Barry and Michelle are getting intimate. They could be into the whole role-playing scene. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Almost immediately after Gaffe-y Duck uttered that phrase, however, one of his flunkies denied that the comment was about the senator's race. To quote Dr. Evil (aka Dick Cheney), "Riiight!" However, we could be magnanimous and give The Obamessiah the benefit of the doubt, so let's take a simple test.

Let's examine what the presidents on the dollar bills have in common with Obama: they're men, and they don't have facial hair

Now, let's examine what the presidents on the dollar bills do not have in common with Barack Obama: they were white!

Okay, pencils down. If you answered, "Obama is insane if he thinks we'll swallow that "not about race" tripe, go to the head of the class. I don't know why anyone would jump to the conclusion that Barry was talking about race. /Snark.

Look, whether we like it or not, the Obama campaign and the MSM is dead-set upon making this election a referendum on race and race relations. They will try to use fear and guilt against you, and for a lot of voters it will work like a charm. I mean, who wants to be called a racist, a bigot, or a hate-monger? And make no mistake - that is exactly what you will be labeled - no matter what your race - if you do not vote for Barack Obama.

Of course, this door only swings one way. I would like to push that door back from whence it came, so we can finally discuss the issues and end this race-baiting nonsense. So, with that, I offer this argument:

If you're an African-American and you do not vote for John McCain, you are a racist.

There, I said it.

Barack Obama is a lot like The Joker in The Dark Knight. Sure, he has a lot of cards in his deck, but he always uses the same one. Frankly, it is getting tiresome.
