Statement of Project 21’s Bob Parks on Senator Whitehouse Comments

Washington D.C. This statement was issued today by Bob Parks of the national black leadership network Project 21:

“President Obama’s almost-constant apologies to the world for the our nation’s actions and his socialist economic policies at home have energized a normally lethargic American people into gathering in American cities and storming the steps of the Capitol in protest.

Senator Whitehouse would have us all just shut up and give Obama his political victories unchallenged. Not doing so makes us all guilty of unprecedented rudeness and – dare I say it – racism.

“Despite liberals’ historically dismal and revisionist civil rights history, when things with this President fall apart, they are all too willing to resort to playing the race card. The problem is – whether it’s the Black Panthers in Philadelphia or Professor Gates in Cambridge – Barack Obama and his administration have conducted themselves so poorly in office that the race label really doesn’t bruise the skin anymore.

“If President Obama had not entered the presidency with his signature arrogance, the American people may have had more patience, but he and his liberal allies have talked down to the American people like we were stepchildren they were forced to tolerate. Statements like those of Senator Whitehouse only further harden the opposition’s resolve.”

During Senate debate on the Obamacare bill on December 20, Senator Whitehouse said: “They are desperate to break this president. They have ardent supporters who are nearly hysterical at the very election of President Barack Obama. The birthers, the fanatics, the people running around in right-wing militia and Aryan support groups, it is unbearable to them that President Barack Obama should exist. That is one powerful reason. It is not the only one.”

Project 21, established in 1992, is sponsored by the National Center for Public Policy Research (http://www.nationalcenter.org).

AS I HAVE SAID MANY TIMES BEFORE IF OBAMA HAD BEEN ANY OTHER COLOR HE WOULD HAVE STILL BEEN JUST AS BIG AN @$$HOLE.

I personally don’t care what color our President is, all I ask is a Commander in Chief who cares about America. I want a President who puts more emphasis on what’s important at the moment. I think our priority should be on creating jobs instead of healthcare in this economic climate, I think illegal aliens should be deported and have to wait in line instead of jumping ahead of everyone else by giving them amnesty. I think this President has done more harm in one year than Bush did in eight years and Bush was an arrogant idiot. The only reason Obama got elected is because everyone was sick and tired of Bush. The Republicans brought a lot of this upon themselves with some of their stupid votes, now the Democrats are trying to outdo them spending money that my great grandchildren will be paying on. I can’t believe we have such stupid people in public office with no common sense at all. The healthcare bill violates the Constitution of the U.S. that these lying thugs swore to uphold. More than 57% of the people don’t want socialized healthcare but the Democrats say they know what’s best for us even if we don’t, talk about stepchildren. I hope all you remember this in 2010 and 2012.

These scumbags think we will forget their evil deeds, but all of us who love our country, our freedoms, and all America stands for will NEVER forget what Obama, Mao loving administration, and his programmed numb-brained robots did and are contineing to do to destroy this great country as well as the American people! They all need to be impeached, and/or voted out of office and tried for treason! It reminds me of when Moses went up to Mt. Sinai to get the 10 Commandments and when he returned he found his people doing all kinds of corrupt and blasphempous shenanigans! D.C. nees to be wiped clean of all CORRUPTION that is going on there now!!!
