Obama Race Issues

No one else can do losers Boston's talk station AMs executive. W -- Kerio.

President made that you know joke about if he was trying to break into his house now give me shots it was burned a very good --

Got a big laugh and it was also a very incisive. Cutting direct remark about racial profiling in America.

Yes in the profiling is being done by Democrats have whenever they see a person of color they can't see any character all they see is skin color. Or ethnicity that's a guess I disagree with -- sex is out and I disagree with you the -- the president joke. Was about the security at the White House anybody wasn't about that he's -- black. Is not -- and so what that was racially charged he was saying I would be if if it was me break union. He's black I don't know if you noticed hot hot hot -- I know you don't focus on skin color the way your brethren in the Democrat party I do not. But -- not the point was. -- racial profiling is alive and well and the gate situation. It could happen him. It can happen to me even as president of the United States I am vulnerable I have to be careful to make sure are always have a white man wacko with me so I won't get -- or something like that's implication of that. It is driving race in using the gate situation where we don't know if race had anything to do that there's no evidence of race having anything to do with the fact. That a professor gates' mouth off to the cops the other day.

I do think some of the reaction receive from on the African American on the minority community. Commentary from folks like -- knew that with the election of Barack Obama. The whole the whole issue of race should now be quickly fading in the rearview mirror affirmative action to Richie cased down there and New Haven so on and so forth and I think is one a lot of defensive reaction to that because they say wait a minute the election this guy doesn't necessarily mean that Powell lives have been freed from discrimination and -- that's one and two. Just the whole sense that. White America will never really quite understand to be able to well -- empathize. With the African America don't experience.

We don't need to be able to empathize because it's over. It's over -- we elect black people now. So the most respected offices in the country what that indicates is not that some magical moment has been reached what it indicates is that the American people moved on years ago. That's that what -- or Barack Obama being in the White House and Deval Patrick. Being in the in the statehouses all about we moved -- years ago it's taken a long time to catch up -- for the system to catch up with us it's a lagging indicator. Because of the obsessive devotion that the Democratic Party has to everybody believing there's a great racial divide.

Also this a huge economic interest unit -- talked about this this in many many ways has almost become a it's more than a cottage industry cottage industry to me is this kind of like little in the -- wrote -- a little side action as others like that answer I don't know if it's a hot hot hot. I mean we're -- right big man to connect mr. white hot hot hot stumble while I this symbol -- skip gates is our previous his -- is -- commentary appointment is not this freak admitted yeah every resident comfortable every threat. Trying to recover from this horrific rush into the up a more -- I mean I just wonder where row where where the rest of Moscow skip gates is on the same business that Al Sharpton is in Al Sharpton is the street version he's the retail version up. And skip gates is the institutional -- is the Newbury Street for exact yeah 6172666060. -- Boston good morning.

Your W yeah demonic guy hey -- on you know last night he played the race pat and he played the insurance cut. You're right on the money the only thing that he can add to what he said as a black man I've broken in my house I would be shot. There was no need those mountains and that that's right in the end he danced around in if you really think about it okay. Well not to break in the White House she would have declined it's the first the security do was they were rushed some. The first thing they would do is Olympic I'm -- In the same thing as it was in Chicago. The same thing the police surely wouldn't opened fire and shoot the -- I mean it just that was such as racist comment.

But didn't it plays so beautifully into the hearts and minds of liberals everywhere. -- any time a president tries to inject a little levity it doesn't have to be is precisely delivered as a Jay Leno. Line or anything else like that I'd better get at least that good. That's not true because as tough tough to laugh at a jail analyze how hot hot hot. Knowing he was obviously. Out of and other. Out of bounds here and in making a joke saying he would be shot if -- were operating out into the White House is it -- I mean I'm not I don't think so I don't drive away we guys well you don't take you don't think there was any racial implication of that joke. How noticed if you use me that you.

About it -- barking started about the supply of Barack Obama if it was Barack Obama try to break in the White House she'd get shot would -- You're right it's. You don't think that people would and repeat the giggling audiences. You throw that in -- that's designed reporters Cox. Attic Kurtz is a balancing it let Eric -- Gloucester it is Steve.

I think we game. -- We compared to -- out that there would be absolute biggest idiot -- wiretap its mail what I did I I just. That -- been -- clips that I heard. Are. Bound to -- how can edit it out and patrol did the right -- and army it would. I spent a great -- comment pretty bad. I it would -- what if I want a black man right rejected the house I live bat I'd be shot. What he --

The implication being this is clearly my house I'm a white man in America and even I would face shooting. If I were heartbreaking it -- of -- resident -- the holy total tough interpret what 300 I don't know why he's. He's making a comment why did he make a reference back to Chicago because he's in a different situation to start about the security situation. At the White House you -- knock on I am I'll get it's I don't know without somebody not and that's why he brought up Chicago because he wasn't talking about the White House he wanted to make the point. That as a black man. Breaking into his own home he too would be vulnerable even -- president the United States.

It but that aren't in the end I didn't speak to him about bear -- any any police or -- acted deal.

I got an ally you really I agree with you on that Steve he is really out of his league and out of his element out of his mind. Out of it MI to offer commentary like that oddest situation he knows nothing about.

People talk about President Bush back to go to work are you get that nobody would expect big pull behead.

I take this. Police responded liar liar -- buyer you know out.

I'm. Here's here's what we know leave the police unions across the kind truly rushing out. To endorse Barack Obama for reelection after that -- that's what you get when you elect liberals who are obsessed with race it's unbelievable that's the post racial -- In the world of Barack Obama Marie and brighten your on WR KR Amory.

Hi good morning -- I have a couple of points that really need to make it does the opposite was very vigilant against job.

And I have been stopped actually expert and it is sometimes it went well on track but can now lack. At opposite deserves a medal of that and that should just said boy am I glad I -- you around and met in this somebody had actually been breaking into my house. I want to thank you up.

Maria isn't it true that it's all about attitude it's all about attitude with -- any situation like this in in -- 99% of the the public out the F. Can defuse whatever. Tension in our anxiety might be did just because no authority figure and he wants my ID. This is simple and gates had no reason to be so obnoxious on this he is safe way. Appropriately in his own all so it just goes through the drill what the copies it's not like cops ask you need to do fifty push -- And that demonstrate -- of something else survive.

Okay records the president and it missed a wonderful opportunity. To quell a lot of racism by saint. The opposite was doing his job I don't know the particular and I don't you think I should be commenting on now.

Perfect and right dead end it right -- there. That hatred pot Murray you should be immediate adviser for Barack Obama.

I'm somewhat bad that people quoted him for president because they couldn't think clearly is -- there that's what black and make. And like fools they voted we have -- I would want to vote cool.

Yeah well he'll be smarter next summer I want you don't. Judge things by the surface and I right now that's -- what she said she talked about his goodness and the the American people fools and she concedes that she was as you lot of Jews brought it listen when the whole media is involved in a subliminal conspiracy to get somebody elected president. It's tough to stand in the way that many hearts were moved by this sense that the media created that this was some. A magical moment -- there was an imperative to get this guy into the White House sending ignore the fact that he is he's spent his whole career with race debaters and racially divisive people. And that he was completely inexperienced and unprepared for the White House those things were ignored because of the media can't.

I recall very clearly you've made the point multiple times during the course of the campaign that if in fact Barack Obama was white. His candidacy for the presidency would have been treated as a joke. By the national media an appropriately so. Only because separate because of one his age to his inexperience I -- a couple of literally a cup of coffee in the United States senate but that that's. The you know the precursor to a successful presidency but out of a -- a relatively. The low achievement to history. In the Illinois State Senate. -- community organizer state senator.

There's a third reason that I thinks more compelling inappropriate to this conversation -- that Barack Obama were he white. Would have been appropriately attacked for his allegiances through his political career like Reverend Wright no white candidate could have survived that because he was black he wasn't attacked. Republicans were fearful of doing that. And John McCain I think sense that it was election he was likely to lose because of the structural things going on -- he didn't want to be the guy. Who was gonna try to beat Barack Obama. By using things it could be perceived joining racially updates rip the ripping open racial -- a little idea is to go patriarchate guy for that but the reality is. That the reason David Axelrod runs. These particular types of candidates like Deval Patrick and Barack Obama is because they have a foot. On both sides of the racial divide they can play it in attract the minority voters and the younger voters. And they can also played -- tracked the older rotors and white voters and that's the magic of views and a black -- he shielded from the attacks. That would happen no white candidate and then we see a guy. Who's in the White House it was never brought up that his whole career was based on the right -- Vioxx a run insists upon -- he cannot have a track record. Because when you have a track record of having voted -- taken a position oh heaven forbid. How the world was angry but anyway what we saw last night racial divide. Barack Obama whole career has been on the racial divide with reverend write it and in in in the the its players the other. Whacko racist for a priest in in Chicago in theory is in the White House when he steps off message we hear all the time how. Disciplined they are and how they stay on message and Barack Obama blew it last night. When race came up because that's where his vulnerability is because this whole last sky in the country. You would ever accused of being post racial.

called in police station might be of forwards it works so far so good. Right Amir fired was trying to this was my house.

That's why -- there.

There's several days a week minus of course commercial breaks and silly little. -- and talk about what's important to you. Talks to pay EM succeed they'll Boston's talk station in and -- victory. W Ontario.

Six AD WRKO. Barack Obama the president of the United States are remarkably yes last night press conference asked -- question very last question has been. 856. And he's asked about the gates situation at Harvard and what does he do the dumbo that he is he weighs in. And says that the Cambridge police behaved stupidly acted stupid war. Dumb thing to say. What a dumb thing to senate.

Thank you Mr. President. Recently professor Henry Louis gates junior was arrested at his home in Cambridge. What does that residents say to you and what does it say about race relations in the.

Well I should say at the outset that. Skip gates Fred. So I may be able biased here. I don't know all the facts.

Should've stopped right there. You know that would of the stuff that was -- bingo so I'm for a song and withhold comment -- for both those trees I wanna -- I have no no doubt literally and at that point that he can normally virtual certainty I've no doubt that talked. Skip gates the president if skip gates had talked with the president I feel him. Then he would have announced that on fourteen or fifteen TV shows us how hot not I'm broken I'm I'm not a so I bias is we've got now what's been reported ago and is that a guy forgot its keys. -- his way to get into the house.

Yeah move.

There was. -- didn't forget his skis or involved in the police station I am a burglary take president's daughter I wanna post the president's yeah if Irish was trying to figure and well August missed my house.

But let's say -- thousands. Hero gets shot.

The tragedy of Barack Obama being in the White House that true tragedy separate from the fact that he's a Communist. Is that the people like skip gates who is just a glorified Al Sharpton are now empowered. They have the direct lines to the most powerful guy on the plane trip and he believes what they believe -- that's why he stumbled last night. And spoke what he truly believes in response to the gate situation. He believes automatically without knowing the facts as he admits he doesn't even know the story anyway -- zen. And says it was racial profiling when there's no evidence of any racial profiling.

I'm and any number of things that bother me mightily about this whole incident in the controversy -- rolled around it I realized notes Cambridge not Boston. But this does not help indeed it does great great hum. To the reputation for Massachusetts Greater Boston if you will. In terms of race in race relations with comfortably beyond the Catalan -- horrific violence and didn't hit it in and tension. That's surrounded.

That's -- people miss Jones story if they get the story right it reflects poorly on liberalism. Because it is liberals who works so hard day in and day out to keep racial differences alive holiday gonna get the story right we're we're calling it when the president know but the president the United States can't get -- right that's why people trusted us more than they -- that night and it ended the national press seems to be just trying to present this in the most simplistic terms in the simplistic terms it's. White cop. Black guy in his own house yet how it's being presented right let's say CNBC. Our CNN that's how it present that so white America sits and says. -- photos rednecks happen Boston that's worst than Internet use volume of one simply. Rally when they went up to the unabomber pulled him out of his little shack there in Minnesota wherever he was trying to he was in his own home via -- ha ha -- billions very good morning -- NW RKO. -- they do want what's going on.

Let's send felt that this would cut -- I ought to question Barack Obama's judgment and -- OK but they talk about George W. Bush questioned him but -- George W. Bush would never. And -- tell you -- are up three point don't want you got a question judgment. -- so it goes up but he says you know you guys out and about the you know it doesn't all the facts yet he makes the judgment about the Cambridge police I mean who would do this so the president of the.

I don't so stupid it's hard to comprehend your right.

Apps so Ali you know panic and it is it you could it'll look deeper into -- what happens -- a real life it's going on on the world you know you know if you. Want to make decisions. Great what happened that goes are rare that a court to demand judgment and it does so I'm really worried upbeat comments well I -- you know Michael --

I'm I'm agreeing with the first part I'm not agreeing with the conclusion you come into he's a bright guy there's a lot of reasons to be concerned because we over emphasize brightness. And we leave out psychology and bias he's a -- individual who built his career on the racial divide.

Or or I'd look at these intellect part of it because he spoke to talk about health -- last night it realizes that. As far as health care and concern that was his agenda you bring up race.

Guess what he can't bring it up he's got castle like a question was the last question of the night and he allowed his. True desires to overwhelm what all the training dictated all human beings make an economist -- it -- and have made that mistake myself any number of times you know from obesity how it's hard to believe I know that but trust me to accept the confession FF FF I know -- to take your WRQ good morning bill.
