Wow, when I heard this clip on the radio today, I was shocked. Absolutely shocked:
On Philadelphia radio station WIP 610, Obama explained why he cited his white grandmother’s fear of black men in a speech Tuesday. He wasn’t saying that she holds racial animosity, but that “she is a typical white person,” Obama said, adding: “If she sees somebody on the street that she doesn’t know, there’s a reaction that’s been bred into our experiences that don’t go away and that sometimes come out in the wrong way.”
A “typical white person?”
Obamaniacs can try to claim that Jeremiah Wright’s sermons are irrelevant, but this comment, Obama’s own words, cannot be written off. Obama essentially implied that white people are racists. As a white person, Obama must have meant me as well when he suggested that white people are immediately afraid when they see a black person walking down the street. All I can say is “wow.” What an incredibly bad thing for Obama to say.

Rich White People are Obama’s communists. He spent 20 years in a church that taught that.
Since he has not come out and disputed, item by item, the issues on the Wright scandal, its safe to assume that he adheres to the black ethics theology, and not to the ethics of honesty and equality.
[...] Barack Obama claims to be a uniter, yet in recent weeks, he’s referred to his grandmother as “a typical white person,” and insulted small town Americans. Those aren’t the words of a uniter. A uniter is someone [...]
I am still waiting for an apology for that remark as well as his wife snide remark on 60 minutes last year about her assination fear reply of “I don’t lose sleep over it because the realities are that, you know, as a black man, you know, Barack can get shot going to the gas station, you know.”
