As I read yet another article about the Italian president's comments about the Obamas being tanned, I can't help but wonder if I'm the only one seeing the comments differently.

All this outcry over how insulting it is to the Obamas confuses me. I thought his comments were actually a jab at the people who are still upset at having a black president and really about the president himself.

While I personally think that most people who don't like him don't like his politics, it is very short sighted to say that there are not people out there that are upset with having a black president.

When you look at the picture of him and Obama shaking hands, he isn't all that much lighter than Obama really. Sure, Italy seems to have a bit more racism compared to other places. But I'm just not seeing these two 'tanned' comments in that light.

Some see the cup as half-white.
I don't like his politics or the fact he has no managerial experiance.

That and his association with known criminals in and out of his cabinet.

He's just like Bush in his refusal to secure our borders and deport Illegals. He's even using Bush's old pathway to citizenship plan.
Another term for rewarding criminals who break our Laws.
