UMMMM!!??!!
Chris Matthews on MSNBC........
And more...
I grew up in a country that was driven apart by race right until the '60s. You couldn't have a black member of the U.S. Cabinet. There were no black cabinet members in the Kennedy administration. It has been such a big part of our life.... To see a president of the United States who is African American, I was thinking tonight, this isn't even an issue tonight. How far we've come in just a year.... President Obama has done something wonderful. I thing he's taken us beyond black and white in our politics...and I'm loving it." Chris Matthews
I understand what Chris Matthews was trying to say, at the same time I want to point out something. It's been a year and people within this country still believe that We have a Black President. The reality should be, We have a President that is Black. You might be asking yourself, What is the Difference??
Black President
The emphasis is on him being black, rather than judging his work in office. When Obama was sworn into office, I sighed a relief and said Finally "We have a Black President" Meaning, there was someone that looked like Me in office and it was inspiring to a whole generation of people. There is hope for change!!
The Day after......
Obama is The President of the United States, and he happens to be black. That is my thought process on Day 2.
1 year later.....
People are still not getting over the fact, Our President happens to be African American. People still see race(as a previous post)as the defining factor it goes before ability, skills, personality. We all know this.......
I think Chris was stuck in awe, at how a man can be so articulate, honest, down to earth and in touch with what the people need/what. The so called "Gimmick of a Black President" was over!!! He has been in office for over a year, and its time to see this Man as Our President!!!
I don't do the whole political thing, but I have seen Obama take shot after shot.
Supreme Court Justice Alito, shaking his head and mouthing the words "Not True" disrespect after disrespect at our president. Instead of showing support in these troubled times. Notice every other Judge didn't show signs of discord, they knew it was being televised and any negative reaction will reflect neg on the president. In my opinion, signs like that show there is no progress getting done.

Rep. Joe Wilson yelling out Liar, at Obama, I really see the lack of respect here. I'm not saying it has anything to do with a person's skin color. I'm just shocked at the number of verbal outbursts aimed at the President. He's been in office one fucking year!!???!!
Chris Matthews has always had a big mouth, his statements yet edgy and not well thought out. Didn't mean any disrespect(hate) and should be taken lightly.
Former President Bush ran this country into the toilet, and here came Obama trying his hardest to clean it up. I remember Jan/Feb 09, people were afraid to buy anything. Business was bad for everybody and the recession hit families hard. We were on the brink of a full on Depression(not recession). Obama has been in Office for 1 year....
He's suppose to wave his hands and everything gets better!! Yeah Right!!! What I took from that speech is that We have a long way to go, but there is light at the end of the tunnel.
I didn't get that from Black President Obama..
I got that from President Obama.....

Hi T...I don't really know for sure what the etticate is in the USA between the Judiciary and the Presidency but I believe he is in effect breaking a rule of not showing his opinion and therefore showing disrespect for the office of the President...I would assume he would be reprimanded for this by his seniors in the Judiciary. I expect there would/is another (??)discrete avenue to voice his opinion....mmmm perhaps even that would be regarded as a no no..??.Rgds..Laurie
Hi T...if I recall correctly the "Rep. Joe Wilson yelling out Liar" was duly reined in (by the body he was elected to) and had to apologise to the President. To myself his outburst showed an alarming lack of respect for the system he is a part of. In order for the system to function respect has to be given to the office of the President and vice versa which I believe President Obama follows very well. I think he is a very astute President in that respect.....Rgds..Laurie
as a white male who voted for black president Obama i realize after one year he's like the rest of the politicians...the only change he"s looking for is in his bank account..great speaker but no substance
I can sort of see what he's trying to say too, but the way he put it makes it sound like he doesn't believe that a black man can be intelligent, hard-working and patient the way Obama is.
And yes, I'll agree that Obama is getting a lot of flack for being black (which is the only explanation I can think of for why he can say he's trying to get people better healthcare and crazy people assume he's going to kill their grannies) but part of it I think is Bush pretty much left him a turd sandwich. Seriously, have you ever stood next to one who farted, and then everyone blames you? That's pretty much what he got saddled with.
omg diesel you are so full of self-loathing. you are obsessed with race, because your not happy with your own and wish you were white. Race Cooper doesn't have these issues.
Honestly I like that Chris said what he did only because it shows he's not afraid to discuss race like most other white people are (I am white myself) and really the issue I had with what he said was with what people tried to turn it into after. He didn't say anything like "oh Obama is impressive for a black man" and I have seen some blogs (not yours Diesel) that tried to frame it that way. Chris was merely saying that he doesn't look at Obama as the first black president but just as the president, that he has the same respect for this man as he would for any other man that holds the office and that's how it should be. I voted for Obama, I gave money to his campaign and I am glad he's our President but not just for the fact that he's the first black man to hold the office, I just thought and still do think that he was just the best person for the job.
I would be lying if I didn't say that I did like that fact that a side benefit to his election could be a lot of people who feel that they can't get ahead or that the system is out to hold them down could look at this man and say "hey if he can do it so can I" or maybe at the very least give some people some hope about their own lives who may have given up hope before.
No matter what though Chris was trying to say something positive and honest about Obama that came from his heart and I think people should give him credit for it and not try to turn it into something that it wasn't, again if he had said something that as obviously offensive as "he's sure an articulate one" then yeah beat him down in the media all you want because he'd deserve it but he said nothing like that at all and I think people should appreciate the fact that he's willing to say what he feels and be honest, that's a lot more than most people do.
When I had orginally seen the clip with Chris Mathew's, I hadn't taken offense to it. If you watch him( which I try and do regularly) you would see that he isn't racist, and he talks and doesn't care about what he says. As for the other govenor's that were there.. that just goes to show you that they feel that even though our president is a blk man, they feel that he doesn't deserve the same respect that they would give to some one of their creed. It has shown me that there are still a lot of ignorant people still out here.

Diesel, suggest you look at www.tigertysonblog.com Tiger in his Feb 1 entry is so damned pissed with you
Sadly it look like you wont get the chance to prove that you can top Marc Williams better than Tiger Tyson or do anything at all with Tiger, as from looking at Tiger's Blog today he is running away as fast as he can from you and looks damn scared of you.
Seems that Tiger suddenly took down his offensive tirade about you that he post earlier today on his blog.
Maybe your scene together and challenge is still now on.
Hi T..I had to check out Tiger Tyson's web site to find out who he was...no offence but I didn't know him...a pleasant (great smile) looking bloke and good to see him pushing the safe sex routine...Rgds...Laurie
Hi T it was interesting to read Tigers comments about also being a person/love etc....Rgds..Laurie
When i was looking at this website and find it to be exceptionally useful. I would really get pleasure from any kind of assistance.
Not long ago, Louisville has emerged as a major center for the health care and healthcare sciences industries. Louisville has been core to progress in heart and hand surgical treatment as well as cancer therapy. Several of the very first fake cardiovascular transplants were practiced in Louisville. Louisville's booming downtown medical research university involves the new $88 million rehab town, and a wellbeing sciences research and commercialization recreation area that, in alliance with the University of Louisville, has lured nearly 75 leading experts and analysts. Louisville might be also house to Humana, just one of the nation's most well known health insurance coverage organizations.
Louisville is residence to a lot of major companies and institutions.
Good day!
I just wanted to say hi :)
Real Madrid had opportunities in the first half to set the score 2-0, but the players were unable to score. Kaka, Ronaldo, and Higuain were all close but were unable to complete. The closest was the play made by Higuain at minute 25, when he skipped by the defense and passed Lloris to make an incredible shot – but the ball crashed into the near post, denying the Spanish team a second goal. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]real madrid official website[/url] Close to the end of the first half, Real Madrid seemed to lack ideas and, though they tried to score, the Whites were unable to disturb the local team.
In round 21 of La Liga, Real Madrid (50 points) beat Espanyol 3-0 last Saturday, closing in on Barcelona, the current leader of the Spanish League standings with 55 points. The team led by Manuel Pellegrini added its eleventh victory in the Santiago Bernebeu Stadium and recovered the difference with Barça, which beat Getafe 2-1. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]ricardo kaka[/url] Real Madrid’s first goal came early, during the second minute of the game, as Cristiano Ronaldo turned on the halfway line brilliantly, escaping the attention of marker Angel Lopez. He was unstoppable as he ran to the penalty area, dodging two defenders before kicking a low shot 20 yards to pass Diego Lopez.
