Racist! I Am Racist!

 

Never...

Never in the seventy-five

years of my life have

I been termed, “racist.”

 

Now...

Now in Obama’s America,

now, I am termed racist.

 

Now...

Now by left wing standards,

by left wing media

I am...

you and me that disagree,

we are termed racist!

 

Because I do not agree

nor trust the man my country

mistakenly, in mine and millions

of opinions,

mistakenly voted to the office

of President.

 

Surrounding himself...

Advised by American hating,

tax dodging appointees.

 

Befriended by American hating,

bomb throwing radicals.

 

Preached to by, “God damning America

to hell” religious leaders.

 

Married to a woman that

never was proud of this country.

Married to a woman that

never was proud of this country

that gave her the freedom to say

and live and be educated as she wished.

 

Befriending the tyrants.

Cold to our friends.

 

The cold, steely look on this man’s face...

 

The cold, steely, arrogant,

know all,

“You must listen to me!”

look on this man’s face.

 

The cold, steely, arrogant look

on this man’s face that

demands:

“You must obey because

I alone am right!”

 

Racist...

not because this man is not white.

 

Racist...

because I do not trust this man

that bows to the king

of the country that supports

and teaches and funds those that,

if given the chance,

would mercilessly

kill our children.

 

Racist...

Racist because I do not trust this

arrogant man who’s words,

said as promises,

that,

those of you that think,

that,

those that truly think

know the words said by this

arrogant man to be shallow

promises that will not,

that cannot be kept.

That,

those of you that think

see the bribes

that you and you and I

will have to pay.

That,

those of you that think

know the bribes

that we the people

will have to pay

to buy the votes

this arrogant man needs.

 

As promised by this man...

As promised by this man

that said, “I will unite!”

 

Now, at age seventy-five,

aware...

Aware and concerned

for but the last forty years,

never...

Never have I seen

my country more divided.

 

Never...

Never in the forty years

of awareness of the

politicks of my country

have I seen my country

more divided.

 

"Stupid!"

We are called.

"Uninformed!"

We are called.

"A mindless, programmed rabble."

We are called, "a mindless,

programmed, racist rabble."

We are called "unpatriotic."

 

By left wing standards,

by left wing media

we,

we the people opposing

the blind ambition of

this arrogrant man,

we,

we the people of America,

we have now been termed

Racist!

 

“Racist!”

 

A catch-all word

in Obama’s America

to easily explain,

by left wing standards,

by left wing media,

when they have no answer,

when they have no way to

answer to the free will of we,

we that disagree.

Of course, it must be!

It's because we are racist!

 

Racist is their word to

cover the people's 

opposition

to the blind

ambition of this man

that we now know

 

To the blind ambition of this man

that we the people now know

to be none other than this man,

this man

that promised to become

the one to unite our nation. 

Obama...

 

Not to unite,

but to be forever known as the great divider.

Hell with Arnie. You penned many truths here, so by agreeing with you, Mark, I too am a racist. This country is a powder-keg waiting detonation. My novel, "Margaret and David: A Love Story" come true.
Reviewed by Georg Mateos 1/16/2010
Divide and conquer said an ancient emperor, it applies today as well as it is been demonstrated by the humongous disinformation from both sides.
That we are divided, no question, that we deserve to be divided? well...the first time shame on them, but now, shame on us!

So, you won't be voting democratic, I guess.
From an English perspective: did he get in almost as a novelty factor, with all the razzmatazz and hype. Your politicians spend more on one advert than the whole of our countries entire campaigns.
Vote Arnie.
