Obama must not eat watermelon
What if he likes it?
Anyone driving by Danny Hafley’s home in Casey County, Kentucky recently has probably done a double take over his choice of lawn ornaments. Rather than a plastic flamingo or ceramic gnome, Mr. Hafley has erected a life-sized mannequin in President Obama’s likeness. The figure is wearing a suit over jeans, and an Obama mask that was purchased after Halloween.
The statue is holding a giant slice of watermelon, but Hafley assured a local television station that it wasn’t about racial stereotyping, but because he “might get hungry standing out there.” He also claimed, “The way I look at it, it’s freedom of speech.”
Newsflash: Just because you can say something doesn’t mean you should say it. Otherwise you’ll come off like a racist jerk like this guy. This is incredibly offensive and frustrating on so many levels, not the least of which is racism.

Only an Obamunist would consider him a racist. It is clearly protected speech.
What if it showed him eating a banana?
You can say anything you want about Obama as long as it is positive. Anything negative about Obama is Racist. Therefore, I must be racist because he is an empty suit that should never have qualified for the office of the president of the United States.

Pretending that an obviously racist statement ISN'T racist is just as bad as trying to say that anything said against Obama IS.
In other words, the fact that everything said by Obama's detractor's is not racist doesn't mean that NOTHING said by his detractor's is racist - and I think this guy had clearly racist intentions here.
That being said, he is correct when he says it's his right to put this crap out for the world to see.
I for one wish he'd keep his ideas to himself, because he only gives the "everybody who doesn't like Obama is racist" idiots ammunition to fire at those of us who couldn't care less what color Obama is, but wants him out of office because he's killing us.
Where's the fried chicken?
Let's see, is it racist to steal from the, relatively speaking, wealthy suburbanites (whites) to give to the poor urbanites (blacks)? If it is, and it really is, then Obama is a Racist with a capital R. While I'm asking questions, what exactly have blacks contributed to this country, or for that matter any country. As a generalization, there are always exceptions, they are nothing but a huge drain, dare I say it "black hole," that will destroy this country.

Speaking for free speech: should have been a thicker slice.
"Newsflash: Just because you can say something doesn't mean you should say it. Otherwise you’ll come off like a racist jerk like this guy. This is incredibly offensive and frustrating on so many levels, not the least of which is racism. "
Yet the liberals who used equally offensive characterizations of George Bush were given a complete pass. Damn double standards.
