Your thoughts on this image please.

 

I am noticing more and more that if you make fun of a president who happens to be black, then your making racist jokes.(at least that's what CNN tells me.)

 

If your wondering wtf am I talking about, please google obama joker fascism socialism.

He is Muslim who cares, its our worst excuse for a president we have ever had, he aint even supported by his own democrats!

 

I feel it aint racist! and he is just as much white as he is muslim so its just like an outdated micheal jackson joke!

 

 

IMPEACH OBAMA!

You do know that Obama has white blood in him from his mother's side, right?

I believe his mother was a muslim, It says he is a devout christian.

Its what I do.

Dam some of you folks are harsh on your President. And to be honest from this point of view give the guy a chance ..no one can be any worse then your last president!! :lolwave:

this was an issue that most everyone knew we were going to face.. to some ppl any criticism of obama is going to lead to " you are a racist ". The president of the United States is going to be portrayed in a lot of ways.. Most not very flattering. I seem to recall ppl making little cartoons of Bush as a monkey. It comes with the job. People have the right to voice their displeasure with the job any president is doing and that's just the way it goes. I don't see that image as a racist because:

 

It's not depicting obama in a negative way based on race but rather his views

The image is from a popular fiction movie in which there are no racial overtones

 

 

You are going to see a lot of fascist/socialist statements made towards obama and it has nothing to do with race but rather his actions. All we can really do is watch what happens and time will tell the legacy of this president.

It's not racist just very stupid and innacurate. But shag I know you are smarter than me, especially on this stuff. So p,lease tell us the difference between a social government and a facist one.

 

 

And as far as religion. What does it matter that he is muslim or christian? And also ... he is muslim? <wo0t> Back up your claim please. He sure doesnt dress or act muslim.

i believe his parents are muslim, but yea, i don't look into the facts a lot.

His dad is Muslim and mother by faith... Also chain we did give him a chance and he is tryn to change the usa FAST! and you cant do that and pushing stuff onto us w/o facts. Also this health care crap going on at the moment he is tryn to rush into affect because he knows it wont work. yet it took him 6 months to choose a dog! he is NOT devout christian, he wants us to rewrite the constitution and rules. he wants the president or congressman to be able to put your hand on your religions books instead of just the bible.... ummmm.... this is usa, if you dont like christ its just part of living here! and we wants to make spanish equal to english as our nations language! SCREW THAT! if you cant speak english while in usa.. dont talk or LEAVE! and yes he has everyone believing that its his way or the highway, like him threatening to not give out stimulus to states that dont back him 100%, its a free world you have your own opinions and you should be able to make your own final decisions off what you and your fellow states people decide! He is tryn to push us into a socialist, liberal, communist country..... we gave him a chance and he screwed it up!

I liked Bushes pictures better. They were funnier. This one isn't racist or nothing just dumb. No humor in it at all. Don't get me wrong, I like Presidentual humor. At least make it funny.

Knowledge is a terrible thing to waste.

his religious beliefs really don't matter much to me.. last thing i remember reading about him concerning faith was that he was still trying to find his way in that regard. I'm more interested in his ideas on how to fix things. I don't care what GOD or GODS or trees or stars he worships.. his actions as commander in chief of the United States are what i'm interested in.

 

People are going to make those stupid cartoons and images. they don't mean anything.. but it won't surprise me much anytime someone says something or does something in a negative way towards obama they will get the racist word thrown at them... would be the same if he was gay.. disagree with him and some will call u a homophobe.. I think that is a very unfair thing to say in most cases. You can disagree with someone and not hate them. but even if you hate them because of color or whatever doesn't always mean the question or statement isn't a valid one.

hahahaha verry funny :P

 

:pizza: Way I see it if people make fun of Obama that dosent make them more raciest than making fun of Bush or anyone else, I think it is in what context the joke is about to make it a raciest joke. On top of that repeating a joke dosent make you a raciest. Theres Moran jokes, Blonde jokes, jokes about god, jokes about santa but saying those jokes dosent make you a hater of those groups or individuals.

To be a raciest of anything you have to hate a certian color, religon or at times a certian sex. People since the elections have thrown that word, "Raciest" around too much without understanding what a true raciest is.

 

Relax & enjoy a good joke

At the end of this post I have another image for people to think about, as I enjoy conversations such as these.

 

In regards to an explanation as to what is meant by fascism, I will let the man in my avatar explain it. I would embed it but Im not sure how to do that. Now listen carefully because most find this man to be boring and old, but he makes lots of sense. Closer to the end the anchor is rather disturbed by the fascism statement, but he lets his former presidential candidate guest explain.

 

 

 

CHANGE-REMEMBER THAT SLOGAN

 

Just to show there are others sides that have other thoughts, some say Obama is yet another leader that promised CHANGE, of the three below, two men were very well known socialists also ran on the slogan of CHANGE. At a time when Town Hall meetings are getting all fired up, your can definately see the concern.
