How Will President Obama Haters Be Viewed By Posterity.

(ThyBlackMan.com) I often wonder why Obama-haters tend to hate Obama so much more than they do the Republicans, who have a much more malevolent agenda towards the American people. The GOP is engaged in an ongoing campaign to abolish Medicare, Social Security, organized labor, the minority’s right to vote, and they repeatedly hold the American people, including the unemployed, hostage to promote the interest of the rich. In addition, they’ve staged a bitter war against women, gays, and the immigrant community – and this GOP assault on the rights of the poor, middle class, and minorities is not just being staged by a radical few. It’s clearly a concerted effort by the entire Republican Party.
.
Thousands of Republicans have come together in a solid block of solidarity to embarked upon the exact same agenda. It involves corporations, congressmen, U.S. senators, state senators, state legislatures, city council members, judges, etc., all across this country who seem to be hell-bent on cutting the throats of poor and middle-class America. Yet, Black, Obama-haters seem to be completely oblivious to this fact and are totally fixated on this one Black man who was elected twice, by a large majority of the American people to be President of the United States. One would think that, that fact alone would, at the very least, cause these haters to reflect on what’s REALLY going on inside of their heads.
.
But these people are so fixated on hating Obama that they’re completely blind to everything else. One can prove to them without a doubt that one of their leading and most high profile Obama-haters is connected to several members of ALEC – an organization that’s spending HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS to obstruct the minority right to vote and was also instrumental in herding poor and middle class minorities into Wells Fargo’s “Ghetto Loan” scam that caused the bank to have to pay a $175 MILLION SETTLEMENT to Black and Hispanic borrowers – and they’ll simply say something like “Yeah, but Obama played golf with a man who works for the oil company.” Thereafter, they won’t say ONE WORD about anything else.
.
These people hate President Obama so passionately that they’re allowing the GOP – the most insidious domestic threat to the American people in the nation’s history – to pursue it’s malevolent agenda with complete impunity. In fact, their behavior is enhancing the GOP effort. 
.
I mean, one would think that their tunnel vision alone would send up a red flag signaling them to review their thinking. It’s absolutely amazing how it doesn’t, but it does clearly show why Black people are in such bad shape. The thoughtless behavior of these haters is undeniable confirmation that there are a handful of Black people in this country who hate other Black people – and especially this Black president – as much, or more, than any Klan member. But their hatred is even more insidious than that of a White, White supremacist – at least a White bigot recognizes his bigotry – but the bigotry of these Black “bligots” seem to be cloaked even from their own recognition in a camouflaging labyrinth of pretextural justifications. 
.
If Malcolm, Martin, and the other Black icons of the past could see what’s currently going on among us, I’m sure they’d hang their heads in shame. But even if they can’t see what’s going on, there are many others who surely will.
.
Due to the election of Barack Obama as the nation’s first Black president, scholars and historians are going to be scrutinizing this period in history with a fine toothed comb – and they won’t be alone. Due to the flawless memory of the internet, Black people who are yet unborn are going to be looking back and reading our posts, articles, and comments during this period, and I guarantee you that many of us are going to be a huge embarrassment to them.
.
Remember, they’ll be reading our remarks with an objective eye. They’ll be able to examine this period in history absent the passions and fog of current politics and with a perspective of 20/20 hindsight. So it will be absolutely clear to them who was engaged in promoting malevolent and selfish agendas, and who were merely “bligoted” (Black bigoted) fools. As a result, many of us are going to be, at best, horrible embarrassments to our families, and at worst, in the case of some high profile people, even smears on their family names.
.
You see, what the President Obama-haters are engaged in has been going on for centuries – in fact, we were undoubtedly sold into slavery initially by such people in Africa. But back in the day, people were anonymous, so we don’t know whose family members helped to promote the interest of the slave masters. But during this information age, it’s all going to be a part of the public record, and I don’t think many of these people recognize that fact. So what many of us do today, may someday cause our great grandchildren to hang their heads in shame and public ridicule.
.
Consider the following. Let’s say that President Obama ends up having a hugely successful presidency and history records him as being one of the nation’s greatest presidents. Many of these Obama-haters’ conspiracy theories and doomsday scenarios will live on as part of the public record. As a result, our great grandchildren and future historians are going to look back upon these people as un-American – and considering the fact that Obama was our first Black president – Black people of the future may even view them, and quite possibly their families, as race traitors.

I can hear it now: “Hey Willie, I was just reading some of the stuff that your “Uncle Tavis” great grandfather wrote. He was a world-class fool. Now I see where you get it from.”
