Confirmation bias at work...

[Chizzang]

Wait a second..?
You're telling me there are people that actually think the comment by Michelle Obama is a "jab at whites"
like actually she's taking a poke at "whites"

That never even crossed my mind

Here's an example:
Our fighting men flew in bombers built by women

Q: Is that a jab at men in the military..?
A: No

And how off balanced and neurotic would a man have to be to take that comment as a slight against men

Try another analogy. That one doesn't work too well.

Because it reveals how idiotic your "feelings" are...

It's possible that it was intended to be a jab at Whites but it is much more likely that it was a "look at how far we've come" statement which I would agree with.

We need to stop looking for reasons to feel insulted. Don't complain about how political correctness is ruining the country and turn around and pull the same whiny sh!t and pretend it's different.

I took it as a "look at how far we've come" statement, or at least I want to.
But the statement is another example of the eggshells whites have to walk on that blacks do not in order to not offend anyone.

I accept your admission that your analogy sucked. I will move on.

Jesus titty slapping Christ Baldy...there's nothing wrong with either.

That's the point. No one is offended if Erk didn't literally pound the nails. No one should be offended by Obama's comment either.

Hope this helps.

Except that it was a jab to whites that had nothing to do with slavery from an angry black. Other than that, I'm good with it.

FLaggy, ever the victim...

No silly...

She's playing the victim card here. The woe is me poor little black girl being discriminated against because she is forced to wake up in a house that was "built by slaves" (nevermind that she is the current "owner" of that house, and nevermind that the house is one of the most opulent private residences in the world). She is probably the most privileged person in this country regardless of race...the elitist of the elite class, but please don't forget that she is a victim in all this...

Kinda like Bill Clinton saying I "feel your pain" back in the day, or The Hildabeast's claim that her and Bill were "broke" when they left the White House, or how The Hildabeast is now saying that she will make Wall Street pay their "fair share" while she is raking 1/4 Million in speaking fees from Wall Street companies. Blah Blah Blah...

Remember back when Cshizzart was all critical of Obama for playing the pity card?

"If I had a son he would look like Trayvon"

good times

Poor Michelle.There certainly may be underprivileged blacks in this country (there's whites too)- but she and her husband aren't among them

Me thinks you girls are missing something...
I've seen the clip - she's not playing the pity card at all
She appears to be playing the BLACK POWER card - look how much progress we've made

I can see why we have a fundamental race issue
you girls have a lot of sand in your vaginas and read everything as a poke at whitey

This...nothing more than this.

'Even if it was a look how far we've come statement I couldn't get away with so she's still an angry black....

What a bunch of sniveling hypocritical vages...

[JohnStOnge]

Hillary is not clear of servergate. She lied under oath to Congress about it. There may still be repercussions.

Provide an example of her lying under oath. I've had this conversation with others.

For example: It's going to be awfully hard to prove that she lied when she said nothing she handled was classified when Comey said he can't say she knowingly handled anything that was classified.

It's like I said with the Bush and Weapons of Mass Destruction thing: Being inaccurate is not necessarily lying. In order to lie you have to say something that is inaccurate while knowing it's inaccurate.

I think if the Republican Congress tries to pursue a "lying to Congress" thing they are going to impale themselves.

Actually, no.

I'm perfectly fine with her "We've come a long way baby" speech

I was just pointing out the nebulous nature of the boundary between things you find unbecoming and things you dont

As the SoS, if she didn't know she was being passed confidential information how can we trust her not to leak or say something damaging when she's POTUS. Ignorance isn't an excuse. She signed a NDA that tells her to treat all information with the utmost secrecy and security

She's either lying or stupid. I'm going to suggest both. She knew she was being fed classified information. I'm a citizen and I know she was being fed that information. You know it. You're trying to rationalize your support and it's not working.


If you believe that she didn't knowingly handle classified info as SoS, then you're dumber than I thought.

They seem very different to me

One being similar to a Rosie the Riveter analogy

the other is the President of the United States
filtering out a single case of violence
in a sea of black violence
to make a point that served only to divide

Two very different things - why YOU can't see that is actually more the question

I see the difference youre seeing perfectly but I'm not talking about that

In terms of the "I'm black look at me I carry the burden of Atlas" lens they are quite similar- and coming from either of the Obamas all I can say is

Im unmoved by it

You might be "unmoved" which I think most mature adults would be
and yet the straight talking - no BS - anti-PC Republicans
tidal wave of collective horror was laughable

Yeah, unmoved - me too

BUT: Somebody moved their cheese
and a lot of crying ensued

[Pwns]

What I'm trying to figure out is why this is the race highlight of the DNC and not the parading of black moms whose sons were killed in not-so-suspicious situations to promote the narrative of (in Hillary's own words) "systemic racism".

The Dems need to have it thrown in the face that they are claiming to be about "positivity" and opposing "politics of fear" while claiming it's open season for police on young black men.

Because
The fringe doesn't vote unless they are feeling ANGRY and slighted
Donald Trump has focused his entire run since last year on getting his fringe pissed off and slighted
Heck, just read the posts around here from the usual suspects

America is in STEEP DECLINE
Pay no attention to the Stock Market
or the Housing Markets
or the Economic indicators

We're spiraling into decline



For Hilary,
Make no mistake: If Blacks and Hispanics don't vote - She's toast

The stock market is on a bubble of massive proportion building...just waiting for the pop.
We just hit the lowest home ownership rate in 50+ years.
1st quarter GDP was a paltry 0.8%, 2nd quarter GDP was a disappointing 1.2%.

I wouldn't say we're spiraling into a steep decline, but we are definitely in an economic quagmire. The steep decline was in 2008 - 2010, but we just aren't recovering. That isn't an emotional response, it's just the facts.

Again, Comey also said he did not have sufficient evidence to say that she knowingly sent classified material. He also said he did not have sufficient evidence to say she knew anything was marked classified.

With him having said those things, there's no way they're going to be able to succeed in trying to get her for lying under oath with respect to those issues. They would have to show that she said those things knowing that they were false. And the FBI director already said he can't say that she knew.

Also, she didn't say her lawyers read every one of the e mails. She said they "went through" them. And there was a reference to search terms. That implies an automated keyword search process to identify certain e mails. Gowdy was inaccurate in describing what she said. Knowingly or not, he set up a false premise.

The Republicans are going to screw themselves just like they screwed themselves going after Bill Clinton in the 1990s if they insist on continuing to pursue this.

He also said he'd punish anyone that did the same thing.

Anyone with a NDA knows that they are responsible for all information passed through them. She got off Scott free.


Keep telling yourself she's innocent, it'll help you compromise your Republican principles in November
