Apparently, Governor Jan Brewer thinks she is living in the fifties or antebellum times. That heffa had the nerve to point her finger in the President's face and then turn around and play the modern version of the white female victim.
Sort of like those white women back in the day who falsely hollered rape back in the day to get a brotha hung...the scary, dangerous black brute stereotype.
That picture put me in the mind of Elizabeth and Hazel. Brewer claims she felt threaten. Uhhh...no Jan, you did not feel threaten! The only thing you was feeling was back in the day nostalgia when you could call a black man boy, or saw him as one, and white privilege.
You didn't look like you was threaten, not the way you was waving that little bony wrinkled up finger in the President's face as if he was a child you were scolding. It looked more like you were doing the threatening, a white woman with an attitude.
Well...you can thank your white privilege that your little bony, withered up ass did not have to lie face down in the gutter, spread eagle, handcuffed, and that the Secret Service did not arrest you. A black woman would not have been able to get up that close. Ask that Black woman that tried to talk to the President at the airport who was hauled off kicking and screaming during his first term.
Why the secret service men keep letting folks like you get away with some of the most outrageous and disrespectful dung y'all wingnuts be pulling is beyond me. Had you so much as raised your finger up in any of the prior President's faces, you would have been old news.
We the people know that, no one is asleep at the wheel; we're paying close attention, especially us black folks and other minorities too. In fact, the whole wide world is watching white privilege in action.
Well, it's a good thing for you that the President is a gentleman. And a double blessing that it wasn't someone else because you would have been at the hospital in emergency trying to get that gaunt finger sewn back on. I'm just saying!
It appears that you have a problem when it comes to brown and black peoples. However, what you do not recognize is that your biggest problem is fear. Most people like you get a sudden attack of fear whenever the economy is fragile or white privilege is threaten. Instead of stressing, you should learn to relax, go with the flow, and learn to see black and brown people as individuals instead of stereotypes.

When did that happen? if it did then the President is being racist.
" Well, it's a good thing for you that the President is a gentleman."
I sometimes wonder if he is being a gentleman or just being weak. During his reign, the GOP has run over him again and again, including Brewer.
The thing I am amazed about is the silence of black bloggers about a Jewish Newspaper in Atlanta talking about assassinating Obama. Is the subject too hot for you Granny?
Anonymous, the President is not weak. He is a gentleman and more than likely looking at them like they are ignorant, which some of them are. President Obama is just cool and laid back and is not into pettiness and drama, and is smart enough not to fall in the snares they keep laying out for him. He is not a black man off the street, he is an educated black man with class. A black man off the street would act like they want him to act, but he is too refined for that and that's what eats them up.
"Jewish Newspaper in Atlanta talking about assassinating Obama. Is the subject too hot for you Granny?"
Not at all, but this is my first time hearing about it. Send me a link to it. Btw, I know who you are, but I won't tell. *wink*
BTW, nah the President is not being racist because he did not tell the secret service men to grab that black woman and more than likely would have been glad to talk to her.
Granny, "Not at all, but this is my first time hearing about it. Send me a link to it. Btw, I know who you are, but I won't tell. *wink*"
The link is at the bottom of this comment. I am surprised that you have not heard about this. It has caused quite a stir in the Jewish Community and in Israel.
But more importantly, how did you find out who I am? I am supposed to be classified information, seeing how I am A VERY IMPORTANT PERSON. I have a new identity and already someone like you know who I am.
Anyway, it's good to know you won't tell anyone. You are trustworthy, aren't you? The country is depending on you to keep quiet about me.

Who's the black woman in the photo? and who is the mean-ass white woman yelling at her?

Word.
I admire President Obama's discipline but can't help but can't help notice the irony. He can't openly express anger like any other leader but then is criticized for not showing the full spectrum of leadership.
Why the Secret Service lets this slide is beyond me. I hope but fear that the President cosigned this as part of getting rid of the bubble. I fear it sets a bad precedent and encourages more of the same. Bullies are encouraged when people don't set limits.
What Granny? So no one dare disagree with President Obama? Anyone who does so must be a racist?
Come on.
This is standard operating procedure for Obama to berate a Republican governor as soon as he gets off Air Force One.
He did it to Bobby Jindal, he did it to Rick Perry, and now he's done it the Jan Brewer.
How rude and imperious he must be to try and intimidate a Governor who is there to welcome him to their state!
This is the man who sued Arizona for trying to enforce the law! This is the man who refused to send federal help during last summer's terrible wildfires in Texas, but sent the a huge amount of resources to fight fires in Mexico. This is the man who sided with a foreign government against the States of his own country in a lawsuit to promote illegal immigration.
Amazing.
Obama treats Red States as though they are enemy territory. He is the Great Divider. Instead of trying to unite us, he purposely sows division and resentment to try to get re-elected. He takes money from his enemies and showers it on his crony capitalist friends. He is destroying America for his own personal gain.
He is the worst President ever.

Why can't Obama openly express anger like "any other leader?" Is he viewed less than "any other leader?"
If so, then he is doesn't have the powers of other Presidents and should not be President. The idea that he is somehow being refined and nice while some jackass puts her finger in his face while chewing him out is a public insult.
It shows a lack or respect and devalues his position as President.
And I agree with you about the Secret Service. They are supposed to protect the President from public humiliation from people like Brewer. Imagine that! The black woman was stopped while Brewer was not. SMH
If you are Black, get back!
Shamala Tan:
There is a difference between disagreeing and disrespect and what she did was way beyond disrespectful. As a matter of fact, the GOP party has been very disrespectful towards this President and each time he has taken the high road and ignored their ignorance. In some ways, I don't blame him because it highlights their ignorance and hatred.
Like I said, it's a good thing the President is a gentleman.
@Bill, I agree with you, but unlike Field I am not gone tolerate their mess and give them a platform to spout their B.S. If they want to play games, they can git! And I could care less how they take it. I don't mind deleting them or moderating comments.

What should they have done, wrestled her to the ground? Shot her? Are you serious?
Obama has to be the wimpiest President ever if he has to use the Secret Service to intimidate women!
We should never have elected such a thin-skinned narcissist a our President, espcially one who is so afraid of skinny old women.

If only that were true Granny. Obama has never taken the high road, and insults his opponents as well as the intelligence of his audience daily. As that liberal paper the Washington Post said yesterday, Obama is "the most divisive President ever".
He is tearing this country apart to suit his own purposes. shame on him, and shame on us for making him President!
Nah, they shouldn't have wrestled her to the ground, but they should have told her to step back or carried her away screaming and kicking like they did that black woman. Because Brewer is well aware of what she did wrong, that's why she made up those lies. What's good for the gander is good for the goose.
Granny, "As a matter of fact, the GOP party has been very disrespectful towards this President and each time he has taken the high road and ignored their ignorance. In some ways, I don't blame him because it highlights their ignorance and hatred."
I disagree. President Obama has given in to the GOP too many times. In fact, his supporters wanted a President with a spine to not give in to them, but he did give in again and again.
No question about it, he is weak and all this gentleman stuff is a way to deny the reality about this President. The reason Brewer put her finger in his face and started chewing him out is because she knows she can get away with it.
Anyway, hopefully this will be his last term. I am tired of people using him as a doormat.
FYI: Obama is no gentleman, he is a coward.
Black women are just plain more dangerous than white women, Granny. Like that black woman Brittany Norwood who stabbed her white woman co-worker more than 330 times, all just because she had found some stolen merchandise in Brittany's purse. It wasn't even a close contest; all of Brittany's wounds were self-inflicted. She was even a danger to herself!
That's why the Secret service has to be much more protective of the President when dealing with black women. There's just no telling what they might do, and I wouldn't want to see any harm come to the President. Isn't that their first responsibility, to protect the President?
OT Granny:
I've been trying to spread the word about this young woman's video about our First Lady.
It touched me, because watching this video, THIS is the intangible to having the first Black First Family in the White House. This is the kind of thing that you can’t measure, but it’s going on across this country. I see it everytime I look at a picture of POTUS or FLOTUS with the youth. YOU CAN SEE IT. You can see how they are seeping into the consciousness of the young people, and I will say it again: THIS, too, is but another reason why the right-wing, and some on the left despise our President and First Lady. Because, they are lifting the veil from the minds of these children and taking them to another place.

I am amazed that no one is talking about this, esp Granny. You ask for a link and then you STILL remain silent. What's up with that? Even BD is quiet. That is very strange.

Which one is the gander, the Black woman or governor Brewer?
