I have been watching this recent budget situation with Congress and the many Nay Sayers for some time now and have come to the conclusion that the overly outspoken opponents of President Obama, is not against him so much for the way he runs this country or his ideologies on social reform, health care, economics or even gay marriage, this is just pure and outright racism. Now if you listen to some individuals regardless of political affiliation, you will hear them speak on the way they feel on the various topics, and some have never changed the way they feel regardless of Clinton, Bush or whoever. But it seems to me, that this newly found “Tea-Party” seems to be a driving force behind these blatted attacks that to me are out and outright racist. Today, we are hearing stories like we haven’t heard in years regarding leaders and media referring to our President as a porch monkey or using other racial empathies. These Tea-Party goes seem to even have issues with fellow Republicans feeling they are not conservative enough for them, now to me, that is saying something. These individuals want to go back to how it used to be, and I have a question for the non-Whites Tea-Party goers that have joined this contingency. How far back to you want to go? It hasn’t been 50 years since we had Civil Rights of the 1960’s. Not long ago as Blacks, we were part of segregated school, public transportation, restaurants and hotels. Actors were only seen cleaning homes and not owning them, until we were “Movin’ On Up”. With all this in mind I just feel that, yea some people dislike our President because of his policies as do many people when it comes to whoever is President but when it comes to Obama...I ask…Is it the platform or just the man himself.
