CBS News: Anger Over Black President Spurs Surge in Militia Groups
"We've seen a real streak of racism injected into the movement, and I think the reason for that, primarily, is the idea that the enemy, the federal government, is headed by a black man."
Wow! CBS can smear with the best of them…Now, what was the actual news in this story? From this story, who appears to be whipping up hysteria?

I have heard some white people call the President a reneggar because he reneged on some of his promises. I don’t think he has ever reneged on anything. Calling the President a reneggar will only cause white people to join these military groups and then they will state things like he is a Muslim and a Communist. Some people believe he wasn’t even born in America. Does it really matter? He is a great person and more popular than Jesus.

Why are some so surprised by this?
I could have told this to anyone at about 11pm Nov.20 2008
The militia movement is a relatively new right-wing extremist movement consisting of armed paramilitary groups, both formal and informal, with an anti-government, conspiracy-oriented ideology. Who is the face of the government? A Black man.
There are some who will never be able to except a Black president.These are the Obama is a this and that,birthers and what ever these conspiracy theorist can come up with.
America is at crossroads once again.”White supremacists and militias are on the rise? No surprise to me.
It started with Sarah Palin and the way the crowds responded to her last year, and continued with the tea party gatherings and now the town hall meetings on health care — there is an arc of rhetorical excess that I think is rightly worrying to people.”
A new book, “In The President’s Secret Service,” says Obama receives as many as 30 death threats a day, 400 per cent more than those made against his predecessor, George W. Bush.
Republicans are stoking some of the anger by making statements about Obama’s health-care reform plans that are “demonstrably untrue.
Depending on what happens,this country could very well explode into violence.
THE STRUGGLE CONTINUES
H2KAugust 13th, 2009 - 2:59 pm
Help me out here, evil. Is that 400% increase basically mean that Obama gets 4x the number of daily death threats? So Bush got only 7, but Obama gets 30?
It’s hard to believe with all of the liberal anger at Bush, all of those G7 summits, the anarchists, etc that he got only 7. I guess those anarchists are reasonable liberals after all.
Nice cut n’ paste. How much did Soros pay you for that dis-information?
CommonSenseAugust 13th, 2009 - 3:03 pm
ANYONE WHO THINKS THE HATE FOR OBAMA IS A RACE ISSUE IS A DEVISIVE IGNORANT BAFOON! That or a Harvard Professor – we have a smuch right to hate him for his Socilaist Anti-American Plans as anything.
Besides he is HALF WHITE – DUH! Oh that’s right Republicans, Conservatives , and Independants are even racist to “TAN” people! DUH FRICKIN’ DUH!
People like evil obot, airwick, barry bonds and the MSM HATE AMERICA and have to call everyone here a racist because they no longer have a handle hold on the hearts and minds of regular Americans (regardless of color) to espouse their Socialist agendas put forth by the likes of Goerge Soros – Talk about a racist!
better wake up Liberals and Media: http://blackrepublican.blogspot.com/ we’re not buying your crap any more.
JohnnyAmericanAugust 13th, 2009 - 3:09 pm
BS. I do not believe this. we don’t care what color the president is. it could be black, red, yellow, white. does not matter. what matters is that the dem’s are now losing their strangle hold on the USA. and now they will spread any humor to scare people back into line. American’s have always defended themselves from bad government. remember the revolution. bad government will be replaced. the sleeping giant has been woke up.

America…another intimidation tactic by the Democratzi using Chicago mafia style community organizing to do their dirty work and the work of their leader, Bilderberg Bush-Obama!
Americans are not angry that we have a half black President…he is afterall…white by virtue of his mother…and black by virtue of his father!
He only got into the highest position in our land by the illegal votes garnished by ACORN and millions of non-racist whites in this great nation!
What Americans are angry about is the “politics” and “policies” of this President.
If Americans are going in droves to buy weapons, it is not to attack but to protect their families if God forbid…this Democratzi government declares Marshall Law against it’s own citizens for speaking up and speaking their minds!
Militia groups are another thing…and something that most average Americans do not endorse and/or support!
So, once again, America the liars and spinners are at work here in America and they call themselves Democratzi!
================================
THE REVOLUTION OF THE SILENT MAJORITY – SILENT NO MORE!
1. GETTING INFORMED
2. GETTING INVOLVED
DON’T TREAD ON US…WE PAY YOUR BILLS IN WASHINGTON AND IN YOUR HOMES WHERE YOU ALL WILL BE GOING STARTING IN 2010 AND BEYOND…GUARANTEED!
FIGHT THE RACE BAITINGAugust 13th, 2009 - 3:16 pm
TIME FOR HONEST AMERICANS TO REALLY START FIGHTING BACK. NOW THE RACE-BAITERS ARE GOING AFTER GLENN BECK:
“President Obama’s “green jobs czar” is co-founder of an African-American activist organization that has led a campaign prompting major advertisers to withdraw from Glenn Beck’s top-rated Fox News Channel program.
In recent weeks, Beck has done several critical segments about Van Jones, who was appointed as the special adviser for green jobs, enterprise and innovation at the White House Council on Environmental Quality.
Beck’s segments were based in part on WND’s reporting that Jones was as an admitted radical communist and black nationalist leader.
Now Colors of Change, an activist organization seeking to “strengthen Black America’s political voice” has led a furious campaign against Beck culminating in major companies such as Geico and Lawyers.com pulling their spots from the Fox News star’s daily show. The group also says it has garnered about 75,000 signatories for an online petition against Beck to be sent to advertisers.”
Yeah, sure, why don’t we all just campaign for release of Mass Murderers???
(QUOTE) “Not convinced? Neither was California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Mass murderers don’t usually get clemency. Williams was executed in 2005. Perhaps if he’d promoted the fraud of “green jobs,” Williams would still be alive today.”

Classic liberal inability to recognize the real root of a problem. Reminds me of the “it’s not you, it’s society’s fault” line. Yes, there’s no doubt that there’s a very small minority of racist people out there that can’t stand a black president, just like there’s a very small minority of racist people out there that can’t stand a white president (New Black Panther Party). You’ll always have the 2 extremes.
But in the middle is a HUGE portion of the country that has issues with Obama’s POLICIES. Get it? one more time…POLICIES. Not color.
The most laughable part of it all is how liberals think of themselves as these educated elites who are above everyone on a mental pedestal…yet they fail miserably at grasping the simplest concepts. If they don’t understand it, then it’s racism, or hate speech, or well funded astro-turf movements. It’s ok though. They’ll get the message in 2010. Can’t wait!
CHILL!August 13th, 2009 - 3:21 pm
I WILL HOLD CBS PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE OF ‘INCITING HATRED, INCITING ‘RIOTS’ IF THIS RACE-BATING CONTINUES ON TV.
THIS IS A WAY FOR ‘OBUMBLER’ TO GET ‘MARSHALL LAW’ IN THIS COUNTRY!
I RESENT THE FACT THAT I AM BEING CALLED A RACIST, RIGHT-WINGED EXTREMIST, BIRTHERS, ETC –
GROW THE F UP! WE ARE ALL CITIZENS – AND……..
MILITIAS ARE ALLOWED UNDER OUR CONSTITUTION – WE HAVE A RIGHT TO BE AS HEAVILY ARMED AS OUR GOVERNMENT! IF THE GOVERNMENT IS AFRAID OF MILITIAS, MAYBE THEY SHOULD THINK ABOUT WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO PIZZ EVERYONE IN THIS COUNTRY OFF!
TYPICAL WHITE PERSONAugust 13th, 2009 - 3:24 pm
It’s not so much that America wasn’t ready for a black president as it is that this black president is not ready for America…
THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENCY IS NOT AN AFFIRMATIVE ACTION POSITION.
CHILL!August 13th, 2009 - 3:26 pm
LEAVE IT TO CBS TO CHANGE THE COVER STORY TO BE ABOUT OBUMBLER’S RACE!
THAT’S NOT WHAT THE ORIGINAL STORY WAS ABOUT!
IS CBS TRYING TO START A ‘RACE WAR’ IN THIS COUNTRY????
JUST REMEMBER THESE NUMBERS — BLACKS 25%, WHITES 60%, HISPANICS(OTHERS) 15%!
Lance MancoAugust 13th, 2009 - 3:41 pm
If out-of-control politicians are a race, yes I am a racist. Stop with the reason of Obama being black, he is half white if anyone has forgot. By reporters calling him black just because he looks black, makes them the racist. The report states 50 new militia groups in two years, Obama has been president for only 7 1/2 months. It is not Obama, it is the government that people have a problem with.
The title should be “Anger at Obama Spurs Surge in Liberal Media to Cover for Him” …Nobody attacks The One, The Boy Wonder, The Messiah…gimme a freakin break. The media is Tainted just like our Government is tainted…that’s why I put together this “Tainted Gov” parody song/vid
The playbook is out!!!! Republicans want to harm Obama…welcome to the next propaganda frenzy!!
LMAO…these guys are incredible…
DemocratSS hysteriaAugust 13th, 2009 - 4:51 pm
When the agenda that CBS and the rest of the dying liberal media signed up to push starts to die and regular people aren’t “behaving properly” PLAY THE RACE CARD! Ignore the Muslim terrorist camps in the U.S., smear the Americans with *guns*!

Nothing wrong with this country that can’t be fixed with a new congress of honest people set on punishing the thieves and liars in New York for their crimes against the country. Can’t wait to watch those hearings.

“He is a great person and more popular than Jesus.”
Usually the judgment of a person’s “greatness” is reserved until after their death. “Judge not . . .”, isn’t that what you liberals like to hold over Christian’s heads?
Is Obama more popular than Jesus? I might agree with you if you’re talking about recent history (the past year). He is undoubtedly more popular than Jesus among you liberal elite types. It’s sad that Americans have drifted so far from their Christian heritage, don’t you think?

@ American Liberal August 13th, 2009 – 12:34 pm
“He is a great person and more popular than Jesus.”
Adolf Hitler was considered a “great man” by a large number of Germans until around 1935-37. In 1932 Hitler had approximately 85% support among the electorate. Obama couldn’t achieve this. Hitler was more of a unifier than Obama.
Be careful American Liberal.
TXGuyAugust 13th, 2009 - 7:48 pm
Yeah, there may be some out there that don’t like the idea of a black president, but that’s not reflective of the majority. The militias have first and foremost been about protecting what the founding fathers stood for, to stand up against tyranny. If they don’t do it who will?
If the cult of Obama wants to make it a race issue there’s nothing that can be said to convince them otherwise, they’ve already lost touch with reality so why even bother. The Democrats have become like Holocaust deniers, clueless, senseless, and just plain blind.
Barry BondsAugust 13th, 2009 - 7:59 pm
I can’t understand why the racists on this site can’t believe that there are other racists out there.
SherryAugust 13th, 2009 - 9:13 pm
It gets worse when you look at the drug resurgence in the US……….
And if the Black President wanted to wipe these “militia” groups out he could do so with a snap of his fingers. These nutty little groups of ‘tards won’t be doing much with their pea-shooters other than playing like little boys.

The divisions the President of these United States insists on employing; be that of health care, the budget or the simple Gates issue of a helpless black homeowner to cheap and reactionary, who never planned to fix his front door after being broken into previously; while a white police officer of impeccable credentials, he (Obama) called stupid; exacerbates the issue of black against white and right against wrong. Right here I call to America’s attention, that a black Texas congresswoman and Obama, a community organizer with their lying, cheating and illegal scams, for the world to see and witness first hand, in this black lying fat ass congresswoman’s well rehearsed benediction to a non-doctor, sickened me.
Let me tell you about this and that about this and explain to you about that and this once more. Obama can’t help himself, when a Muslim lies, it’s their natural right according to their Koran; amazing spell check here and Mic-Word wants you use a capital for the koran, but not the Holy Bible. Obama submits a will proven fraudulent document to subvert our Constitution, to be elected; a Hawaiian COLB, that he was born in a Dole Pineapple Field, and everyone but a view believe it. Google executive order 13489 the very first thing Obama did, once in office was he denied access to anything about him, everything. Want lies and treasonous acts has Obama buried everywhere?
Obama’s endless lies and deceptions, his Chicago Mafioso like politics, and his now obvious stealth black liberation theology socialist revolution; 23 years with Rev. Wright training comes out stronger than ever, which are destroying our once great country; pitting neighbor against neighbor, black against white. The lying S.O.B. claims all the while to unite, the cry of a community organizer who is a liar, liar, liar and traitor.
I need no more proof of the dum-dums in America who blindly believe in this person, (Obama) than his followers and supporters, than that staged stooge performance by a congresswoman who has sworn to uphold the Constitution and that Obama operative impersonating a doctor.
God bless and help America, please.

Don’t be too sure there smarty. Remeber Obama doesn’t have a gun – he has guys with guns. And those guys need to be told to do something – like shoot.
Many of those guys with guns are just as upset or confused by this empty suit as any of the protesors. I mean we already have many soldiers who are refusing to follow orders because of Barry Sortero hiding all of his old docs. MANY MANY people question the authority of the man and is eligibility to be in that chair in the first place.
So you (my crazy little liberal friend) are very mistaken about who has the guns in this country. Liberals are anti-war, military, and guns.
Conservatives are Pro 2nd ammendment and as the elits from the coast would say; it’s all of us uneducated flyover rednecks in the military…..
I’ll let you stew on that for a bit ;)

Democrat Senator John F. Kennedy voted against the 1957 Civil rights Act.
Democrat President John F. Kennedy opposed the 1963 March on Washington by Dr. King.
Democrat President John F. Kennedy, had Dr. King wiretapped and investigated by the FBI.
Never forget the U.S. is a Republic, for which it stands, THANK GOD, and it’s not a democracy, also know as the last form of government, that’s Europe.

The tale of an anarchistic, narcotic and parasitic narcissistic ruler of a great nation was told not that long ago; in Mein Kampf and Zweites Buch. Conversely by the current President of the United States who also printed two books, Dreams of my Father and The Audacity of Hope. Not by accident, I think; they believe in the same thing, kind-of, to reach their final ends in black and white, warning us. All Americans should be made well aware of this fact, I believe.
The divisions the President of these United States insists on employing. Be that of health care, the budget or the simple Gates issue of a helpless black homeowner to cheap and reactionary or planned to fix his front door after being broken into previously; while a white police officer of impeccable credentials, he (Obama) called stupid; exacerbates the issue of black against white and right against wrong. I call to America’s attention, Hail Hitler (joke), kind of; we need no brown shirts or Czars, for Obama’s hot air or green gas to keep us in line or alive, we are American’s after all, I pray.
Obama’s tactics, tried and condemned, all failures in history; he wants to repeat on America again. When does a self confessed, crack smoking, cocaine user, rule a great or any nation again? Not even a citizen of that nation, as Hitler was born in Austria not in Germany, and still the question is alive where Obama was born, Hawaii, Kenya or Canada. This regrettably and currently is unresolved in America, for this scandal and situation to happen all over again? I pray to God, the Jesus type to save us, before we all kill each other, over this fraud and impeachable president.
This is a test, a wake up call, don’t be alarmed; go back to sleep and watch ABC, CBS, and NBC, the current level of education taught and believed by some. This is not a lesson in German history to be repeated, I hope? But what happened in 1776, Washington’s war and The War of 1812, when England (the British) burned down The White House, will not be repeated again, in God’s name or in Mohamed’s name, for any reason!
I do not own a gun, but if this continues I will have to bye one or more, while I still have that right to, and suggest the same to any true American, and do not tell anyone you did.
tonyAugust 27th, 2009 - 11:53 pm
Where do all these hate mongering media idiots get the notion that the civil uprising is race related? I don’t know ANYONE who cares that Obama is black, they simply disagree with his socialist agenda. I guess making it about race gets more sympathy ratings and votes.
Whose money will they spend when the private sector has been bled dry? The only segment of our economy that is freely spending (our) money and is hiring personnel left & right is the government.
Don’t any of the media clones have enough of a brain to realize how UN-american Obama is? Our constitution is simply an annoyance and roadblock to his ideology. The tyrannical government we are trying to thwart is our own, how sad is that?
