Sick. Obama Compares "Los Suns" B-Ball Protesters to Civil Rights Legends (Video)
Posted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, May 26, 2010, 5:45 AM
During his interview yesterday with NBA sports announcer Marv Albert, Barack Obama compared the Phoenix Suns protest-players to civil rights sports legends Arthur Ashe and Bill Russell.
Barack Obama on the “Los Suns” protest:
“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.”
“Um. When I was growing up we had figures like Arthur Ashe and Bill Russell who would routinely talk about the world around them.People wouldn’t always agree with them. But, that sense that people are engaged with the big issues of the day is a positive thing and I don’t think that players or franchises need to always stay away from controversy. I happen to personally think that the Arizona law’s bad and I’ve said so publicly. And I see no reason why these guys can’t make the same statement.”
Spoken like a true radical community organizer. He really ought to read the law sometime.
And, this aired before a playoff game?
71% of Arizona voters now support the immigration law. Only 24% oppose it.

Obama is very clear about whose side he is on. Not the side of enforcing American law.
Mark1957 commented:
Don’t allow the left to distort the issue by making the law breakers the victims ! The right right must keep the spotlight on the American citizens that have been robbed, raped and murdered by the criminals pouring across the border.

See? This is tactic admission that the law’s Constitutional, so it’s attack it thru influencing public opinion, inciting mob hysterics tactics in the hopes it gets so violent a scarey public outcry will force its repeal. The media is the means to blanket the public with this message, and Obama and the Democrats are using EVERY opportunity in EVERY venue to push the “messaging.”
He don’t care what he destroys. Look at what he left as wreckage in Kenya. Look at his toxic meddling against the Cambridge Police Department. He’s calling the entire Arizona law enforcement structure racist and they haven’t done anything. Al Sharpton has already slunk around chasing Sheriff Joe’s deputies as if they’ve done anything wrong – no they haven’t, but the baiters keep trying to distort and corrupt the public perception against them.
ON the other hand, Los Suns may discover soon that Obama ain’t their best buddy after all. Thanks to Obama’s oppressive redistributive taxation, Los Suns ticket sales will be noticeably LESS.
Maybe if they spend a little less time shooting hoops to read the economic stats, they’d be a little more considerate of their “community.” Less disposable income means less money for sports entertainment, and how many “communities” right now are going to be willing to get hit with another punitive subsidizing tax hike for the greedy franchise owners?
Political greed has blown the sports market up like the mortgage and student loan market – awash in artificial tax-payer subsidies, the teams have over spent, over paid “star” players above and beyond what any team can get in return.
ALL the sports teams in every sport, are going to be feeling it this year, and next year and the year after. Obama is destroying their customer base. Sports franchise bankrupties are the next wave.
Maybe when the dust settles, and there’s anything left to salvage of our society, people will refuse to have it rebuilt on subsidies and demand sports franchises hustle like everyone else does for business.
TXPatriot commented:
So, he is saying he personally doesn’t support the Arizona law, which is essentially Arizona duplicating and enforcing federal law. Does that mean he’s not for the federal laws either?
John commented:
TXPatriot:
You are correct. BHO is against Federal law, including the US Constitution. Has he crossed the line yet to begin impeachment by the people, or he is just standing on it?

Obama – Amongst the other things he isn’t capable of doing we can now add – making a reasonable analogy.
Joanne commented:
Of course this law is bad – bad for Obama, who doesn’t want the American people to actually take action on their own to stop illegals from entering and staying in the U.S. It puts a big damper on his plan to give all illegal Mexicans the right to vote for democrats in November – boo hoo. Way to go Arizona.

OK, when corporations, businesses, franchises, etc. start running ads against ObowMao and his regime’s candidates, we’ll see how much El Presidente agrees with his own words.
He’s already on record against the SCOTUS decision.
P.S. Marv didn’t wear his pretty dress!

I have a Dream – where all American citizens can live in peace, harmony and extremely small Federal Government.
I have a Dream – where Barry Soetoro (aka Zero the Incompetent) is Impeached, Convicted and sent to live the rest of his life in Detroit (without his Secret Service guards)
I have a Dream – where Barry’s Detroit hovel is open for visitors 24 hours a day 365 days of the year as a lesson to future generation on the folly of megalomania, socialism and the American Dream.

He’s such a smart guy, isn’t he?
Honestly, I think US presidents are actually becoming more stupid every time.
Clinton was a dumbass. Bush was, let’s face it, hardly the brightest bulb inthe box. But Obama totally taxes the cake so far. He’s dumber than Bush. I wonder what the next POTUS will be… someone with a lobotomy? Certainly would fit the trend.

………..
THat’s just media boilerplate, take time to look deeper than the propaganda.
Clinton has the 800,000 dead of Rwanda on his head, plus the Belgium UN Peacekeepers the radical Hutu slaughtered EXPRESSLY to evoke the same reaction, knowing Clinton panicked- pulled out of Somalia. Yep, Clinton curled up into a ball, put his hands over his ears and as the Rwandans BEGGED for help, went “mmmm! mmmm! I don’t hear no genocide!” Without the USA providing a backbone, the UN curled up, too. Then he had the NERVE to show up and say, “I guess we could have done more.”
Bush has the thanks of millions of Southern Sudanese. During Joseph Garang’s funeral the brand new autonomous government of Southern Sudan THANKED Bush in front of the world for promoting democracy in So. Sudan, and making the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) a reality, ending the world’s worst modern civil war – 2 million killed, 4 million displaced. Half of Africa was at that funeral, heads of state, half of European dignitary as well, international media galore. Anyone mention that? Nope. An eyewitness who attended told us.
AFrica was astonished at Bush’s massive malaria and HIV/AIDS initiatives – BILLIONS of dollars that revitalized the battle against these two scourages.
Obama is ignoring the programs, letting them go moribund.
It’s NOT that Bush is stupid, or ever was stupid, it’s that he is quiet about what he’s done for other people, and the media won’t tell anyone so they can maintain their grotesque fraud about him.
We know a guy who was in New Orleans getting emergency supplies and equipment in after Katrina. He said he saw with his own eyes President Bush part of a clean-up crew, chain-sawing debris. Huh?
After the Ft Hood massacre, it was Bush and his wife Laura who appeared at the hospital, unannounced to provide solidarity and encouragements to the wounded and to the grieving families. It was Obama who needed the pomp and ceremony machine up and running before he swished into Ft. Hood.
Bush graduated from Yale and Harvard fair and square, and was adept enough to make a tough cut to pilot jet fighters, savvy enough to be a two-term governor of the second biggest state in the USA, with one of the world’s largest economies, then a two-term president, successfully fighting TWO theatres of war, outing two dictatorships and establishing democratic governments in places where the pundits sniffed “weren’t ready for democracy.”
HOW is Bush stupid?
Enough!

.. So when the Suns get ‘socially involved’ because they jump on the Obama bus and show their opposition to the ‘bad AZ law,’ the pOTus thinks they’re just terrific… I wonder.. would he be cheerleading them if,like the 71% of Americans who agree with the bill, they got ‘socially involved’ by wearing SECURE THE BORDER jersies??
http://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2010/04/29/Poll-Most-support-Arizona-immigration-law/UPI-55921272544207/
They’d still be getting ‘socially involved,’ in their community,Right?? The Suns would still be making their voices heard, just the like Tea Party people, right? Or would they be labeled racisssssst evil doers, or Nazis… or as our pResident so crassly likes to put it,”Teabaggers?” Would they still be getting Obama strokes if they felt strongly about federal immigration enforcement and families being terrorized by criminals and wanted to stand up for their beliefs??
Obama is a HYPOCRITE along with his Dimwit drones.. he stokes the embers of ‘you bad,’ ‘you good’ politics while turning his back on enforcing the law & on the people he swore an oath to protect and defend.. he is a disgrace!
Feeney commented:
Obama is doing us all a favor. He is showing us the end result of the radical liberal agenda. Hopefully the American people will never again put such a radical in the White House. He has four years to do his worst. Then its back to sanity.
