Spoken like a true radical and leftwing community organizer.
Barack Obama praised the Phoenix Suns (Los Suns) for their Los Suns’ jersey protest during his NBA interview that is scheduled to air tonight.

President Barack Obama talks with Marv Albert on the White House basketball court, May 21, 2010. (NBA.com)
The Arizona Republic reported:
“Just because somebody’s a sports figure or you’ve got a sports team doesn’t mean that you’re not part of the community and you’re not part of our democracy,” Obama said in an interview with sportscaster Marv Albert. “It’s terrific that the Suns, who obviously feel very strongly about their community, recognize that a big part of their community felt threatened by this new law.”
71% of Arizona voters now support the immigration law. Only 24% oppose it.

I’m only surprised Obama didn’t blame Steve Nash’s black eye and broken nose he’s suffered since coming out in opposition to the immigration reform law on racist teabaggers.
patman commented:
Priorities.
Texmom commented:
Yeah, terrific. I wonder who gave the NBA and the Suns the idea??
If Obama is allowed to force Arizona to back down, it will empower them to disregard states rights on anything they disagree with. It will set a very dangerous precedent.

And here I thought that it was President BUSH that was supposed to be the huge friend of Mexico….at least Bush acted like the President of the entire US, not just parts of it.
Do Your Job! commented:
So nice he takes time to have a chat with Marv Albert while he continues to blow off Jan Brewer.

Do you think Obama took cross dressing tips from Marv? Bet he did.
Chisum commented:
Keep talking BO.
Rasmussen has him at (-20) today.
How low can he go?
gus commented:
I thought businesses were not part of our Demomcracy. He doesn’t think they should be able to give money to campaigns, unless it’s BP giving him money.
Or PURPLE SHIRTED UNION THUGS giving money to him.
This man is a p.o.s., how did America let this happen.

Have the Arizonans fired on Ft. Sumpter yet?
(And why not? You lazy Arizonans…)

Dissent is only patriotic when Obama agrees with your dissent.
Greg commented:
Wellllll Obama is racist. In the next few months you will see bumper stickers claiming that the “driver did not vote for the racist.” This racist garbage will end when it is widely and publically ridiculed. The racist will get lots of redirection if the republicans get either the house of senate in November.
In the meantime spread the word about the racist

Too bad he doesn’t do oil spills the same way he does shuck and jive.
Obama’s Katrina, will sink the regime, you watch. It proves hiring a never done anything empty suit is bad for your country.
Robert commented:
The Suns are dhimmigrants
and guilty of dhimmigration.

OT: Guess who is not laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown on Memorial Day. B.O.! You betcha! B.O., M.O. and the little Os are spending Memorial Day Weekend in Chicago. They are returning in time for a McCartney concert on Wednesday!
When is this guy going to realize that he has duties??? One of those is respecting the military. He forgets they are the ones who gives him the chance to live in OUR HOUSE.

FYI – President Bush never missed the ceremony in his 8 years as President. I checked.

Lil barry is a “Los Loser”.
DavidL commented:
Add the concept of community to the long list of subjects Dim Won, Barack Obama, never studied. A community is essentially a population with shared values. The mere fact that I trespass through your back yard, does not make me a member of your family. Likewise and drug coyote tramping through Arizona is not now, and has never been been, a part of the Arizona community.
A community is what people make, and not what presidents, and would be dictators, seek to impose.
Barry commented:
Has Barry read the Arizona law? Has Barry read the US Federal Law regarding illegal aliens in the country?
Is Barry confused as whether he is still running for President or really is the President of all the United States of America whose job it is to uphold all the laws of the country?
Rachelle commented:
Obama won’t be content until the rest of the country looks like Detroit and is as dangerous as the Chicago community he ‘served’.
Militant Conservative commented:
With his Malignant Narcissistic self when the house and the senate change hands. Obama will either go nuts OR the democrats to “appear” to clean up thier own party will have evidence that Barry is not qualified to be president. (throw him under the bus).
It’s politics folks and these are the times that try mens souls. powder is dry.
Scott Wiggins commented:
OT I know but with Memorial Day coming up I’ll be watching for Hussein to ignore protocol and refuse to put his hand over his heart or salute as the National Anthem is played. If I were in attendance I would have to say, Mr. President please respect out National Anthem! As a young Marine Lieutenant I witnessed an old Vietnam Vet, Company First Sergeant “respectfully” tell another Lieutenant to get his s**t together and act like a Marine…It can be done, even for the President…
JustSaying commented:
The “man” and I use that term loosely, is a flaming idiot….I only have one question….
DID HE BOW to anyone?????
this man is a sick puppy!
can’t get him out of town fast enough….go take another vacation Obama…you must be tired
Pat the First commented:
I don’t listen to Glen Beck much, but yesterday I was at home doing some work and had his TV show on in the background. He made a very important point. The progressives have destroyed the Democrat party. The Democrat party as was known by JKF and LBJ is just gone. It started disappearing under Carter. They have complete the destruction of the Democrat party. They should just change their name . . . Progressive Socialist Party.
Of course, if they did that, they would lose a huge chunk of their party members who still live under the delusion that the Democrat party still represents them. Time for some of them to wake up and smell the coffee.

..The game clock’s ticking down for this dead ball pOSer.. coming into the game next, shooting last and best, the American people.
Sickofobama commented:
I hope Los Suns gets their arses kicked by Los Lakers.
Then Los Lakers get their arses kicked by Boston.
Until of course Boston changes their name to Los Boston Chicanos.
Then I hope they all lose.
Mike commented:
Brilliant use of time, isn’t it? The Magic Negro waxes on the critical issues of our time – multimillionaire thug basketball players – while the world and the country peel apart.
What a colossus of incompetence.
Just_Saying commented:
Great observation, “Do Your Job” #5. No one in Obummer’s administration can respond directly to the governor of Arizona, yet Obummer has time to sit there, obnoxiously, and interview with Marv Albert?
Beyond belief!

jonyjoe101 commented:
I doubt the illegals go to the basketball game, they prefer soccer. Drug dealers are also “part” of the community in there own little way. Does the obama also support them? a lawbreaker is a lawbreaker.
Liz commented:
I am sick of tennis ball head making radical-liberal-progresive comments like this. Uggghhh I can’t take it anymore.
Buffalobob commented:
I hope the Suns have a new shirt ready. ” Lost Suns”. Lakers coach Phil Jackson wasn’t intimidated by the moron reporters when asked for his opinion on AZ 1070. I’m an Arizonian and I pulling for the Lakers.
Mark commented:
Was Marv wearing panties?
K~Bob commented:
Under the US Constitution, the federal government decides citizenship issues. Hence they make all “immigration” laws.
The AZ law is not an “immigration” law.
The AZ law uses the term “Alien”. If the right cannot bring itself to use this term, they will not win this debate.
Stop playing to lose.
Enemy Within commented:
Obama to send 1,200 troops to border
http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9FU1TN05&show_article=1
Probably to prevent Arizona from enforcing 1070 and to keep the border open.
Scott Wiggins commented:
I could care less what the multi-millionaires in the NBA do…I want to watch the Commander in Chief’s behavior this Memorial Day…We aleady know that Joe”Big F*ing Deal” Biden will attend the wreath laying ceremony in Arlington…What exactly is our Commander in Chief going to do for the millions of Veterans on Memorial Day. It better not be golfing!

Dean Carlson commented:
I know its not popular to critisize a black politician but lets be real. Obama is this countries worst emnemy. He is a facist muslim bent on taking over our freedoms. Hard for me to admit since I feel for his lies and voted for him. He needs to go next election.
Jack Kinch(1uncle) commented:
Nomobama should enforce the law instead of urging others to break the law. Can’t anyone in government do something about this. We sure don’t need more demos to support.

Barack Obama the horse’s ass.
