But who here ever brought up the issue of Obama being black?

He is neck and neck with Warren Harding and wants first place ** -- NewBernHoo 02/18/2016 10:30PM

And more -- FfxStationHokie 02/18/2016 12:44PM

Off your anti-panty-wad meds again? ** -- Shenhoo 02/18/2016 09:53AM

I don't know what your issue is w/me, but you're just an asshole sometimes ** -- CA Cav 02/18/2016 5:35PM

So you know BO's golf schedule? Where's he playing? -- SixerHoo 02/18/2016 09:20AM

Cuba...with the Black Lives Matter crew? ** -- Tuckahokie 02/18/2016 09:43AM

Probably trade GITMO for a '57 Ford Fairlane. ** -- ryno hoo 02/18/2016 12:53PM

Might have an important meeting with Jay Z ** -- HokieDan95 02/18/2016 09:42AM

There it is. Knew you boys could do it. ** -- WahooRQ 02/18/2016 10:16AM

I'm just curious. Do you claim to know the reasons he isn't attending or -- Seattle .Hoo 02/18/2016 09:16AM

Earnest was asked at yesterdaqy's press conference3. Avoided answering. -- CA Cav 02/18/2016 12:23PM

There has only been 1 other sitting justice died in past 60 years. -- JohnHoo2 02/18/2016 5:11PM

OK so you don't know the reason. Just taking a moment to vent I guess. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 02/18/2016 12:27PM

I would expect him to be there and am surprised he wont be -- cvilleHOOrat 02/18/2016 08:25AM

I actually am not up in arms over him skipping the funeral -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/18/2016 10:12AM

I don't understand where this sudden importance of divider/uniter -- cvilleHOOrat 02/18/2016 10:38AM

The fact that he's liberal and a Democrat makes him a divider today. -- Seattle .Hoo 02/18/2016 11:51AM

No, of course not. But because he is from a minority -- 111Balz 02/18/2016 11:29AM

Issues re race, gender, sexual preference go straight to the spinal chord-- -- bob1314 02/18/2016 11:44AM

In other words, all this is much more than 1 man being a unifier or divider -- bob1314 02/18/2016 11:53AM

There's the race card defense. Time to transition to the sexist card. Crazy -- Hoodafan 02/18/2016 11:42AM

Here's a thought for folks on the right, then; keep the focus on -- Seattle .Hoo 02/18/2016 12:17PM

Absolutely right. Denial is more than a river in that thar condiment where -- WahooRQ 02/18/2016 1:40PM

Nobody is denying racism exists. When have you ever heard me, or even the -- Hoodafan 02/18/2016 12:39PM

But calling out racism when one sees it is divisive and reverse racist, -- 111Balz 02/18/2016 12:19PM

Speaking of weak minded, was that supposed to mean -- 111Balz 02/18/2016 11:45AM

Try to keep up Balzie. Is it possible that you and others opposed Mitt -- Hoodafan 02/18/2016 12:05PM

Clown post ** -- 111Balz 02/18/2016 12:12PM

When you turn to insults.........you got nothing. ** -- Hoodafan 02/18/2016 12:20PM

Try staying on topic for a change, and try not digging deeper -- 111Balz 02/18/2016 12:30PM

Says the king of strawmen. Be sure to let us know how you oppose Dr. Ben -- Hoodafan 02/18/2016 12:42PM

Well, there you go again.You'd be much better off if you'd just -- 111Balz 02/18/2016 12:46PM

WTF are you babbling about now? Just stick to calling those you disagree -- Hoodafan 02/18/2016 12:52PM

LOL, you should go back and re-read this thread when your blood -- WahooRQ 02/18/2016 1:10PM

No, just typical Balzian approach of claims of weak minded and implied -- Hoodafan 02/18/2016 1:23PM

Your characterization of Balz's post is predictably inaccurate. -- SchmHoo 02/18/2016 1:30PM

You just will not learn, or read for meaning apparently. -- 111Balz 02/18/2016 1:28PM

"But because he is from a minority" Ummm, then WTF was that supposed -- Hoodafan 02/18/2016 1:38PM

Oh, which minority were you referring to then that Obama is a member of? ** -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/18/2016 1:38PM

I don't think you're quite there yet. Maybe try yoga. ** -- WahooRQ 02/18/2016 1:27PM

Namaste. :-) But why are you anti-transcendental meditation? ** -- Hoodafan 02/18/2016 1:42PM

I've always been a bit more partial to strip clubs and liquor. :) -- WahooRQ 02/18/2016 1:43PM

You really just kinda pick out the little bits you want, huh? -- SchmHoo 02/18/2016 1:00PM

You didn't say why you thought he was not a divisive president -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/18/2016 11:54AM

Any division because Obama is black isn't from Obama's 'side.' It's from -- bob1314 02/18/2016 12:20PM

But who here ever brought up the issue of Obama being black? -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/18/2016 1:36PM

You'll never convince anyone of that who doesn't already realize it. -- SchmHoo 02/18/2016 12:30PM

I also did not sya why he is not kenyan, communist, or martian -- 111Balz 02/18/2016 12:12PM

Yes, he is. ** -- Hoodafan 02/18/2016 11:21AM

I do think he is a bit of a dividing force, yes -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/18/2016 11:17AM

And to be fair, the 'just say no' stuff on the other side has seldom been -- bob1314 02/18/2016 11:32AM

Certainly, it takes two to tango -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/18/2016 11:49AM

Where did that come from? Obama himself ** -- HokieDan95 02/18/2016 11:07AM

Of course, but I think if we're being fair.. -- cvilleHOOrat 02/18/2016 11:13AM

Small but important distinction -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/18/2016 11:36AM

Criticizing him for calling attention to problem as if he is trying to fix -- HokieDan95 02/18/2016 11:26AM

So you don't think he tried? Do you expect him to bend over -- cvilleHOOrat 02/18/2016 11:30AM

I'm referring to a simple funeral attendance ** -- HokieDan95 02/18/2016 11:33AM

He's not going. Big deal. People are reading their own shit into it. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 02/18/2016 11:56AM

Wow, in the age of PC where liberals self righteously -- HokieDan95 02/18/2016 12:56PM

Would this be a dividing issue if the media didn't focus on it? Would most -- JohnHoo2 02/18/2016 11:47AM

Blaming the media for reporting the actions of the president? -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/18/2016 11:51AM

Whooosh ** -- 111Balz 02/18/2016 12:14PM

Enlighten me, O Enlightened one, or keep your pitiful attempts at improving -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/18/2016 1:27PM

Don't bother ** -- HokieDan95 02/18/2016 3:21PM

Made a fine statement after Scalia's death. Oughta be there to say it again ** -- seanbryan 02/18/2016 09:13AM

Agree. He missed Margaret Thatcher's, Sharon's & some others that surprised -- bob1314 02/18/2016 09:03AM

That's where I am with this, too. Don't know if they've said the reason. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 02/18/2016 08:59AM

Yeah, I am surprised he is not going but I don't see this as more evidence -- 111Balz 02/18/2016 08:37AM

Black Robes Matter? ** -- Tuckahokie 02/18/2016 08:17AM

That's funny! ** -- MBHoo 02/18/2016 11:14AM

He's a uniter, not a divider. Way to stay classy Barry. #SnubberInChief. ** -- Hoodafan 02/18/2016 08:15AM

This pretty much sums up the liberal sentiment about Scalia's death (link) -- Exhoolate 02/18/2016 07:56AM

I'm impressed that so many of you cons know BOs golf schedule. -- SixerHoo 02/18/2016 11:01AM

Strange. Some guys here who don't seem conservative think Obama -- icehokie 02/18/2016 09:21AM

In the military, one salutes the rank out of respect ... -- 25Charlie 02/18/2016 07:32AM

I agree with this. I like Obama, but I think this was a mistake. ** -- HoosWillWin 02/18/2016 08:33AM

Too much is made of funerals imo. Let people mourn in their own way -- Chesapeake HOO 02/18/2016 07:53AM

If it was Ruth. Elena, or Sonia he would be there...and giving the eulogy -- Tuckahokie 02/18/2016 07:14AM

Obama has Scalia killed, then skips the funeral? This proves he's a muslim ** -- Bacon 02/18/2016 04:49AM

I seen this on that thar Homeland show. ** -- WahooRQ 02/18/2016 11:54AM

Exactly - clear cut as ever ** -- FfxStationHokie 02/18/2016 08:27AM

ROFL-what a sad & pathetic party/clan you belong to? SMH ** -- AngusHoo 02/18/2016 12:46AM

Serious question, would Scalia's family want the president to be there? -- JohnHoo2 02/18/2016 12:34AM

Not much point in asking serious questions here. ** -- SixerHoo 02/18/2016 09:28AM

Start the impeachment hearings! (If anyone's available from the Benghazi & -- bballbill 02/18/2016 12:25AM

The SOTU that Scalia skipped? ** -- DanTheFan 02/18/2016 12:02AM

You seriously support that petty justification? ** -- HokieDan95 02/18/2016 08:14AM

The 19th "childish spectacle” that he's skipped? ** -- Hokie5150 02/18/2016 07:32AM

Juvenile response. Scalia would be at Barry's funeral. -- CA Cav 02/18/2016 12:18AM

It doesn't matter if you support Obama or not, the optics of -- Cold Hoober Hoo 02/17/2016 9:39PM

I'll be curious to see what the cool aid drinkers come up with to excuse -- HokieDan95 02/17/2016 10:17PM

CA Cav's article says exactly the opposite. Pesky facts. ** -- SixerHoo 02/18/2016 09:25AM

Outrage of the day! -- DanTheFan 02/17/2016 10:43PM

That's different ** -- FfxStationHokie 02/18/2016 08:18AM

Still shows a lack of decorum not to go. what's the source on your info? ** -- HokieDan95 02/17/2016 11:15PM

NBC News, Baltimore Sun -- DanTheFan 02/17/2016 11:28PM

So, President Obama can't interupt his busy Saturday to go to a funeral in -- CA Cav 02/17/2016 11:37PM

I just wish Dan had let more come out to wail. ** -- SchmHoo 02/17/2016 10:54PM

Why? so that you all could pile on more? (and look even more like hacks?) ** -- CA Cav 02/17/2016 11:06PM

So the question is "Who's doing the piling on now?" -- SchmHoo 02/17/2016 11:14PM

You obviously just want to pick a fight -- CA Cav 02/17/2016 11:27PM

So you start this string, but everyone who disagrees with you is just -- 111Balz 02/18/2016 08:30AM

It's fascinating. ** -- SchmHoo 02/18/2016 08:32AM

Bullshit, Dan. Obama preaches about how bad DC is, then acts poorly -- CA Cav 02/18/2016 12:33AM

You're pretty worked up. Try Massengill. ** -- WahooRQ 02/18/2016 08:48AM
