obama-citizenshipWhite Liberals Scold Obama… But Come Off Cynical & Hypocritical
By: Tolu Olorunda

In the wake of President-Elect Obama’s recent cabinet-appointments, many white liberals have taken it upon themselves to release pent-up aggression at a man they thought was the “progressive” candidate he had earlier claimed to be.. As they saw it, Obama had “betrayed” the loyalty that earned him victory. As a sort of catharsis, railing Obama’s reputation over the coals of indignation could make them feel better about their decision to elect a man who promised virtually nothing (of substance) in his bid for the presidency. White liberals, especially, have had to learn so much, in the last 1 month, about the man whose political dirty-laundry was never hidden from the public to begin with.

In a highly predictable move, they have sought to bash everything Obama, or Obama-like, and couch their frustration in the ‘eloquence,’ and ‘con-artistry’ of Obama. Spare me the misplaced aggravation. [...]

Whilst Black progressives sought to rip the mask off of Barack Obama, in an attempt to unveil his true identity, we were deemed ‘Obama-haters,’ whose egos sought to stifle the chances of a Black man making history. [...]

    The tradegy in the 08 US election is that white America sought to juxtapose the Obama rhetoric to the greatness and shear genius of Dr Martin Luther King’s love of humanity. They forgot one thing, that in their quest to prove their race “superior”, they murdered the Dreamer before he was allowed to reveal his GOD given “Promise land” revelation. What GOD revealed to Dr King, we may never know, one thing I do know, it wasn’t all this Obama idoltry. They have backed this Nation into the “black hole” that they think they see in space, but in reality, the “black hole” is among them.

    It’s funny how blacks and whites who are fixated on racial equality are actually the biggest bigots of all. Nothing is ever good enough and race is always the issue for them. A Majority of blacks have grown so comfortable with the false sense of entitlement bestowed upon them that they refuse to take any personal responsibility for their actions, always falling back on the old race card. We are all in the same boat people, black and white, asian, latino…it doesn’t matter. There will always be racism. Some whites will hate blacks and just as many blacks will hate whites, and so on down the line. The “black agenda” is akin to the same sort of agenda laid down by white supremacy groups, but its politically acceptable if you are black. The NAACP is such a laugh. All this hypocrisy. Where is the NAAWP (National Association for the Advancement of White People)…that’s right, it doesn’t exist because blacks would cry racism. See people, equality means equality, not special rights for your people at the expense of others. Black folks, you cry discrimination but you have become the ones who discriminate more then whites now. And stupid white folks let you get away with it. You can’t have it both ways forever cause people are bound to wake up and say enough is enough. Step Up and be equals on your own merits and abilities, otherwise, if you can’t do this then maybe you are not eguals at all. Just dependents on a system you think has wronged you.
