What garbage.
The lib media now says Obama’s race hurt him in the 2008 election.
A wacky new lib study proves it.
Yahoo reported:
When most people are searching for information online, they’re likely to be alone and less likely to censor their thoughts, he explains. “You may have typed things into Google that you would hesitate to admit in polite company,” he writes in a New York Times article. “I certainly have. The majority of Americans have as well: We Google the word ‘porn’ more often than the word ‘weather’.”
He chose a common racial insult that starts with “N” and looked for searches that used the singular and plural forms of the word. “The most common searches including the epithet… return websites with derogatory material about African-Americans,” he writes in his study. “The top hits for the top racially charged searches are nearly all textbook examples of antilocution, a majority group’s sharing stereotype-based jokes using coarse language outside a minority group’s presence.”
That held true for searches from 2004 through 2007 (searches for “n**ga” led mostly to rap lyrics, which he disregarded for this study). “I used data from 2004 to 2007 because I wanted a measure not directly influenced by feelings toward Mr. Obama,” he writes in the New York Times.
But from 2008 on, he discovered, “Obama” was one of the most prevalent search terms in racially tinged online searches.

After gathering information on the racially charged search queries, Stephens-Davidowitz took a look at voting data from around the country and compared each area’s 2008 results, when Obama was running for president, to voting results from 2004, when all of the candidates were white.
Though many people believe that our first African-American president won the election thanks in part to increased turnout by African-American voters, Stephens-Davidowitz’s research shows that those votes only added about 1 percentage point to Obama’s totals. “In the general election, this effect was comparatively minor,” he concludes. But in areas with high racial search rates, the fact that Obama is African American worked against him, sometimes significantly.
“The results imply that, relative to the most racially tolerant areas in the United States, prejudice cost Obama between 3.1 percentage points and 5.0 percentage points of the national popular vote,” Stephens-Davidowitz points out in his study. “This implies racial animus gave Obama’s opponent roughly the equivalent of a home-state advantage country-wide.”
Of course, the study did not even touch the fact that 95% of black Americans voted for Obama.
It only focused on the crackers.

I’m an equal opportunity bigot: I hate and despise all politicians the same.
And if you don’t see the above as sarcasm, to quote Bill Shatner:
“Get a life, people!”

The American Pravda media declaims Racism “cost” Barry a significant percentage of votes, but studiously fails to acknowledge that their full court press of promoting Progressivism gains any Leftist/Democrat candidate far more votes to offset any perceived reported bias.
This drivel from the media will only get more shrill the closer we get to November. Hopefully more and more voters will begin to see how shamelessly partisan the media reporting is in actuality.
Cargosquid commented:
Of course his race hurt him. The media expected teh One to have 98% of the vote.

I confess; I am a racist. I drive a white mini-van, live in a painted white house, have white shirts, eat white rice, marrried a white person, had white children, drink white milk and now, thanks to old age, have white hair. I. Am. A. Racist. My friends are White, I don’t have any Black friends. My doctor is White, so is my dentist. The check-out person who always asks after my children is White. My city Mayor is White, the councilpeople are White, my congressman is White, my US senator is White, my governor is White. My cat has orange colored fur.
I am a racist.
So, now that I admit it, can we move on to how we’re going to get America moving again?
CR commented:
If I wasn’t racist before 2008, I sure as hell am now. I keep being accused of racism so I might as well be a racist. Let’s see how they like them apples.

Do you mean his and the liberals plans to lower the voting age to ten fell through?
Damn!Just when they thought they had the fourth graders prepped (brainwashed).

I guess the Obama campaign and some in the media are preparing for an Obama loss in Nov. 2012. They’ll blame racism to distract the easily misled from Obama’s horrible performance. I’m just waiting for new Obama T-shirts and other campaign crap with messages like “Y’all Still Owe Me” or some other white guilt crap.
Ella commented:
I’m a racist, you’re a racist, we’re all racists, oh well, what are you leftards going to do about it?
In other words, water off a duck’s back, go find someone who gives a flying flip.
Freddie Sykes commented:
I would not have expected Obama to get all that many white Republican votes and, therefore, I am assuming the story is about Obama not getting enough white Democrat votes.
Wake up, people! This is just another demonstration of the fact that Democrats tend to be racists. Now they have “proved” it.
Ida Lupino commented:
Liberals, Democrats especially, the MSM will do anything to get this guy re-elected. Laying the so-called guilt trip on whities, while tried and true in the past, is just not cutting any more.
Indeed, calling us racist for the simple reason that we most decidedly do NOT like the tone and direction this guy is taking us and the country.
Stick it, lefties.

Obama Harbors Racist Feelings Toward Even His Mother
[It’s the dirty little secret that is the pink elephant in the middle of the
room that undermines every conversation on/about race, regardless of
where said conversation takes place. It is also the single greatest crime
(yes, I said crime), of which the Obamas are guilty. I’m talking about the
raw animus, per definition and actions, that many blacks privately harbor
against their perception of white society as a whole.
The white politically correct are dutifully ignorant to the reality of this.
They blame the malevolence on historical actions, white racism, and on
social inequality. The truth is that it has nothing to do with any of those
things and everything to do with the socialist encroachment into the
psyche of the first generation of post-slavery blacks.]
