This is a post from my WordPress blog Stay A While, along with the comments. I decided to duplicate my WordPress blog posts (along with all comments) on Blogger for posterity. Also because I lost my WordPress password and haven't been able to recover my account. So I just copied everything over and changed the publish dates. Anyway, enjoy.
Subject: Faux Repost.
A re-post for all the racists out there who now blame Obama for not producing his birth certificate and causing the issue.
If you are a birther – you are a racist!
You can't hide behind the "I'm not a racist, but by the way where is his birth certificate and why did Obama cause this issue".

Did you wonder just how racism would rear its ugly head against the first black President?
Racism is is not so overt these days. I didn't expect the Klan to march on the White House with their hoods on. I didn’t expect racists to be calling the President of the United States a nigger. I didn’t expect business owners to not admit him inside their businesses.
Racists are more backhanded these days. Questioning his birthright, in the face of clear evidence, that he is American born. Just a little slap, to let him know they don’t think he is REALLY American, as they feel other blacks are not really American.
Claiming he is a Muslim, when that is totally untrue. Why? Could it be that Americans have a negative connotation of Muslims since 2001? Irregardless that a vast majority of Muslims in the World are peace loving people; a few bad people have hijacked that religion, and are nothing more than murdering terrorists.
We have a few religious terrorists in America who have hijacked the Christian religion for their evil purposes. I doubt most good Christians support those religious terrorists who bomb abortion clinics, or kill abortion doctors who are providing a LEGAL service.
I haven't counted, but I'll bet we have more dangerous religious crackpots in America, than any other Country on Earth.
Don't kid yourself, these are racists. They use different tactics in the 21st century.
Calling him Socialist, Communist, Hitler and every other name in the book, is just another way to try and define him as sub-human.
Since when, if a President wants to try and help the American people, does that make him anti-American.? That’s what they say about him. They even concoct their bat shit theories about him being in some secret alliance with Arab States to tear down America.
Call these racists, racists!
Don't let them get away with some bullshit explanations like, "we are just asking legitimate questions". Bullshit!
And those like RN who claim they don't "know" if he is a citizen, or not, or Muslim, or not; are stupid and racist.

Sue: Tom, these racists call the president a Muslim so they don't have to overtly call him a ni**er. Yes, the extreme right winger who murders an abortion doctor is a domestic terrorist. They have no problem calling McVeigh a terrorist but if it's someone "called by God" to defend the unborn then that's justifiable murder. Evangelicals are a terrifying bunch of extremists, I'd hate to see one of them as our president!

TOM 3136: Sue, "We shall not always expect to find them supporting our view. But we shall always hope to find them strongly supporting their own freedom" I keep coming back to this quote by President Kennedy; and have concluded that Republicans do not support their own (Americas) freedom. Unfortunately, it's not all extremists who believe this crap. It comes from the Republican leaders of the House and Senate. P.S. No problem about the found comment. All sorts of strange things happen with blogger.

tnlib: I can remember in the early days right after Obama was elected, progressive bloggers were calling the Tea Party racists. Editorials and opinion pieces in the MSM were defending the TPers and saying they weren't racist. I wonder what they're saying today.

Octopus: Tom, I saw the diatribe posted by the village idiot on his weblog. Wear it as a badge of distinction.If you haven't noticed by now, two posts above the rant dedicated to you, the village idiot posted one in my honor. That's two angry rants back to back. Did he threaten you with a lawsuit too? We should be pleased and proud as Punch.

TOM 3136: Octopus,I wrote my own post. Not because it will change any mindless minds, but I felt like venting today.

jadedj: Sue nailed it. They simply have given up the nigger word, that's all. They know the nigger word won't fly in today's politics. They can't simply say, a nigger has no right to the White House because niggers are sub-human. This is their problem totally. They look for other ways to niggerize the President... he's a Muslim…he wasn't born in the U.S... ad nauseum. We know it…and THEY know it. They just won't own up to it.I for one think none of them are worth spit, nor am I interested in any sort of dialog with them. In the vernacular... screw 'em!

TOM 3136: Jaded, Unfortunately I feel the same way.I say unfortunately, because I was hoping as much as they hate Obama, they could be talked with. My mistake. Thanks for stopping by.
