Barack Hussein Obama is showing his true colors more and more, isn’t he? First he calls another black man a jackass in mixed company — knowing full well that his diss would be broadcast everywhere by the White House pool feed. And now Obama has asked one of only two black governors in the country to step aside and not run for reelection so Obama can place one of his cronies in that position.
Accroding to online reports, a message from Obama to New York Gov. David Paterson leaked just days before Obama was to travel to the NY area. The message urged Gov. Paterson to take one for the team and give up any chance of running for reelection.
This isn’t the first time Obama has meddled in local NY politics. The message to Gov. Paterson is just another in a series of leaks that casts Obama in a bad light — and exposes his true narcissistic character.
One NY Daily News headline this morning read: “Gov. Paterson is a dead man walking.”
But Gov. Paterson remained defiant in the face of heavy opposition. “I am running for office,” Paterson told reporters at a Manhattan parade. “I’m not going to discuss confidential conversations,” he said. (link).
By sticking to his plans to run for reelection, Paterson gives Obama and his administration the virtual middle finger.
The NY Times reported on Sunday that the Obama administration fears Gov. Paterson will lose the governor’s race and cost the Dems an all-important Democratic seat in Congress. But the Democrats stand to lose many seats in 2010 anyway if the national polls are any indication.
He has his nerves asking some1 to take one for the team
!!!
I hope this isn’t true
!!!
Gov. Patterson is a trip and not well like in NY..he will drag the ticket down cause i really don’t think he has a chance in hell of winning a election
Sandra, why is it that you identify President Barack Obama as being “Bi-Racial” yet you identify Governor Patterson as being “Black”?
Okay Auntie – you on point with this one. Whispering to Obama – why did you give her something.
“First he calls another black man a jackass in mixed company”, Sandra are you serious? C’mon now…..a jackass is a jackass, no matter what color he or she is, and that’s exactly what Kanye is. Gov. Paterson chances of winning re-elections in NY right now are slim to nothing. He’s a very unpopular governor…..All Pres. Obama is trying to do is preserve the state in the Democrats corner.

Because it would have sounded dumb for me to say he was one of only one bi-racial governors.
@ zidane and sanaas:
According to the polls, Obama is very unpopular right now. Should he step down too since he has ZERO chance of reelection in 2012?
