Freepers: "Yeah, they only ever show Obama connecting with soldiers of color...."

[Richardo]

Not.

1. I see colored people...

Pink, brown, black, tan, olive, beige...

I'm pink:) Not that it matters:) But I had fun writing in "pink" on my kids' school cards every year. Or Anglo-Saxon... or whatever... :)

Freepers are funny, aren't they?

[sarge43]

3. I see people damn happy to press the flesh with their CinC. n/t

[JuniperLea]

4. Nice to see, isn't it?

And he didn't even have a phony turkey for them, and they are still happy!

[sarge43]

5. It is.

There's the authorized, issued smile (pull lips upward and to the rear until dental apparatus is visible) and the four clap applause and then there's the real deal. After eight years it's good to see the deal again.

16. As Capt. Beefheart once said to Rolling Stone- "Everyone is colored- otherwise you couldn't see 'em!

[opihimoimoi]

2. Spoiled Bullies whing about moot/minutiae shit...trying to appeal to their Base

who are infected with the GOP Pathogen....

Bullies are usually 5% of the Gen Pop....these pubs got 20%

The GOP Bully Crowd is shrinking before their very eyes....

They are very UNATTRACTIVE at the moment....can they recover? Hardly a chance

6. I see. White soldiers hate Obama

Well I certainly am glad that the freepers put Garofolo's accusation of racism to rest.

:sarcasm:

[Clio the Leo]

7. Them is some mighty fine gentlemen NT

[Number23]

8. Aren't those Marines?

Call a Marine a "soldier" and you'll get the iciest glare you've ever gotten in your entire life. :)

[sarge43]

11. Yes they are

and you'd be lucky if all you get is an icy glare. :nuke:

[DavidDvorkin]

9. They're wearing white makeup

It's part of the plot.

[Vektor]

10. I swear, they hallucinate whatever they want to see.

Every photo of Obama with the soldiers has shown service men and women of every creed, and none of that is relevant anyway. Let's not let the Freepers even try to hijack the conversation with this racist drivel.

I don't know about the rest of you DUers, but when I look at the photos of Obama and our troops, I don't see "black soldiers" or "white soldiers", I see AMERICAN soldiers.

[Bucky]

12. Look at their faces.

Our president is a real mensch. Damn, but I'm glad he's in charge. I may disagree with him some times, but I always trust him to do what's right. It's that same feeling when the drunk driver gets out and hands over the keys to a designated driver. Relief and hope.

[Richardo]

13. I'm chagrined to have pointed out to me that I labeled these Marines "soldiers"

Mea culpa. :blush: I will look more closely at the individuals next time. :patriot:

[styersc]

14. The photo absoultely rocks Ricardo.

Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines seem to be filled with those who are proud of the new C in C.

Of all of the titles that President Obama enjoys, I get a kick out of how badly it irks the Freepers to hear him referred to as the Commander in Chief!!!!

[sarge43]

15. I would say at least two people aren't irked by the duty title.

"Who's your Commander-in-Chief, Darlin'?"

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

19. *shudder*

Thinking about the Obamas doing it is kind of like thinking about my parents doing it - I sure hope that they are for their sake, but I don't want to know about or think about it for any reason.

[AspenRose]

17. FAIL

Racists will see whatever they want to see.

Oh and by the way, lurking Freepers, those blacks and other people of color in the military are busting their ass serving our country so you can exercise YOUR choice to avoid military service, sit on your cowardly ass and spew racist bullshit freely and anonymously on a computer in the comfort of your living room, mom's basement or public library. Take a good look at those first two pictures. Are you trying to tell me you noticed Tammy Duckworth was asian before you noticed she literally sacrificed limb for her country? If you aren't ashamed, you should be. And you sure as hell do not love your country.


AspenRose, military brat who has ZERO tolerance for racist chickenhawk armchair commandos :mad:

18. Nevermind that our armed services are majority minority nowadays, right?

These asshats need to get a grip.
