This is what I had the pleasure of listening to on the way home from work yesterday. Quotes from Republicans on talk radio who want Obama imprisoned, because we all know a majority of blacks are in jail - at the same time giving credit to George Bush for this victory.
As always, I try to respect both sides when it comes to a tragedy or a major piece of legislation is accomplished. And I continue to do this until something crazy comes up, and sure enough the craziness is out again.
"It's ironic that Obama is our first black president and now he'll be in Jail as well,"
"Seal Team 6 and Obama should be tried for war crimes for violations of international law,"
"George Bush accomplished what he was set out to do - this is George Bush's victory,"
"We went in, took an unarmed man down in front of his wife, where is the respect? They didn't even give him a chance, they just shot him in the head, pop, pop, pop,"
"Obama invaded a country without permission; this is a crime."
"He (Obama) is worse than Osama bin Laden ever was,"
What's with the "unarmed" quote? Are you people really that stupid? 3000 people were unarmed when the planes hit the two towers, and you want us to give Osama bin Laden a chance to run? Seriously? And the notion that we should try our military men, is beyond crazy. Obviously I can't post everything I listened to on the radio, but during the course of one show a man comes on and says "Obama went in and killed an unarmed man, who's to say he won't go in to Libya and kill Kadahfi? He (Obama) thinks he can just go in and kill whoever he wants, he can kill Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, he can kill any of us now"
Seriously people?
I don't know if you recall but in March of 2002, on the 13th to be exact, George Bush offered the following statement, “I don’t know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don’t care. It’s not that important. It’s not our priority. I am truly not that concerned about him.”
Yet, as you will see in the videos below, President Obama made a campaign promise to capture this evil man. He was going to make sure to let the American people know he was out to find Osama bin Laden, and it didn't matter if he was in Pakistan, he would go in and kill the bastard. At first, he debated his fellow democrats who said it was wrong for him to just go in and kill Osama, and with a scathing response to all of them who voted for the war in Iraq, he gave his answer. In the second video, he corrected John McCain on the issue of the "invasion" of Pakistan.
Answer me this, did we not want Osama bin Laden killed? Dead? Rotting in Hell?
Why are the Republicans spinning this? I know, and most of you do too, this would not be an issue had it been any other person but a black man running our country - this is a sure bet.
