Title: If a White conservative gave Obama AirJordan's, that would be racist
Post by: IronDioPriest on January 21, 2012, 02:38:20 PM
My thread title is the first thing that popped into my head when I read the headline. If a White conservative dared offer Obama a pair of Air Jordan basketball shoes as a gift, the media would go apoplectic with charges of racism. Hell, if Newt Gingrich can't say "Juan" without identifying himself as a racist, and Tea Partiers can't oppose ObamaCare without being racist, imagine... oh... Bill O'Reilly... giving Obama a pair of shoes that just two weeks ago niggas were killing each other over. The double standard, again.

I can't think of anything better to represent Obama than a pair of clown shoes that his voters kill each other for.

Those shoes well and truly are hideous! There is a twisted sort of irony in them killing each other over shoes that no thinking person would want to be caught dead wearing.
