Wouldn't work. We all know that making fun of The Obamessiah is tantamount to criticism, & therefore ipso facto, Racism. Anything that is NOT 100%, fulsome, masturbatory, gushing praise of His Holiness, Barak the Firstest, is Racist, & will subject the writer to charges of Bigotry, which in Barak's America is at least 10X worse than being a pedophile...Actually, having a differing opinion than that of The Ruling Party Forever, Amen, Inc. is grounds for being labeled an un-American heretic & blasphemer...

I think that peoples with little exposure to the black culture often post racist remakes without realizing that they are.
Racism and criticism of Obama are two clearly different things however.
Fox devotes hour after hour of air time to criticism of Obama but cannot be called racist.

For example continually calling Obama the messiah is not racist, it is simply voicing disgust for what he stands for and that is understood.

I find people of colors views of him to be ( excuse ) the pun colored. They feel the man ( yes he is a mere man ) can do nothing wrong. Hence why some refer to him as a messiah. Do I like it ? No, but i understand why they speak of him like this.

I think these people you speak of (and I admit they exist) are not much different than the blind Palin worshipers.

Hard for me to not see that Obie is narcissist, hard for me not to see that Sarah is a dolt.

Everyone is different. Some of us just have a gift to find fault in any politician.
