Did You Know I'm a Racist?

Because, apparently, only a racist could possibly have any sort of problem with a "black" president. It's not really the fact that Obama is bailing out big businesses so the CEO's can take their nice bonus this year, lay off half their work forces, and drive up the unemployment rate. It's not really the fact that we have a president, who if elected for a second term, will most certainly try to push another asinine "assault weapons" ban (you know, that thing under Bush Sr and Clinton that didn't solve anything)- or worse. And it's not really for the fact Obama has given Great Britain, one of our better allies, a veritable slap in the face...twice!

It's my inherent racism that comes from me being white and somewhat republican that is the only logical explanation for my current disdain for our Commander in Chief. Surely, only a racist could have any sort of problem with Obama. He's charismatic, energetic, and depending on who you ask, he's black!

The left has wanted this for so long and now they have it. They've got someone in office with whom they can pull the race card. Don't like our guy? You're a racist! Now, I'm sure someone out there is saying, "But Forrest! Not all of us liberals think that blah, blah, blah..." Shut up! I know, trust me, I know. A few of my liberal friends are exceptions. But by and large (or at least on facebook), this is what I see.

So, please, get over yourselves and our president. Obama is not God, nor is he perfect. People are going to dislike him. Just because he is "black" it does not make him great- true greatness comes from something deeper than the skin tone a man is endowed with by his Creator. Take a look at him objectively. This is how he will be judged by history.

Until next time--

Forrest

Welcome

This is my new "blog" for stuff that isn't a chronicle of my daily life. This is where I will be doing most of my updating from now on. My old website can be found here: www.xanga.com/ForrestTheMarksman

Also, the word "blog" is hereby banned from this site. You may call it a website, by its very name, or simply The Shit. Any further mention of the "b" word will result in me coming through your monitor and shoving your keyboard through the bridge of your nose.

Until next time, punch anyone who says "keep it real"
