Obama still using the race card, claims to see a rise in "tribal attitudes"Scotty Starnes | October 15, 2010 at 11:30 AM | Tags: Barack Obama, MTV, Obama, President Obama, race, race relations, tribal attitudes | Categories: Uncategorized | URL: http://wp.me/pvnFC-35b |
When your policies fails, what's the typical defense for a Progressive? First you blame others and if that fails, pull out the race card. Obama does both and does it often.
Politico reports:
President Barack Obama thinks that the recession has caused a temporary increase in racial tension by stoking "tribal attitude" among people in economic distress.
During an hour-long town hall with young people simulcast on MTV, BET and CMT Thursday afternoon, Kishor Nagula, a graduate student at Johns Hopkins University, asked Obama about race relations, saying he was disappointed the president hadn't ushered in a post-racial era, as some of his supporters had once suggested he would.
"Oftentimes misunderstandings and antagonisms surface most strongly when economic times are tough and that's not surprising," said Obama, citing some "slippage" in racial understanding.
"When you're out of work and you can't buy a home or you lost your home and you can't pay your bills… sometimes that organizes [people] around kind of a tribal attitude and issues of race become more prominent."
But Obama pushed back against the idea that race relations have gotten worse over the long-term, adding that the "trend lines" were moving in the right direction, anointing young people as "the messengers" to their less enlightened elders.
This man is delusional. Americans are blaming his failed policies and extreme agenda so Obama resorts to using race as an issue to hide these facts. The economy, not race, is why the majority of Americans are upset. People are also getting upset when the person who said they were the man for the job resorts to dividing the country based on skin color.
