I can totally not believe that they are going to honor this guy at the inauguration. I mean Obama is crazy to admire him! I mean seriously, the whole inauguration is about this asshole? Really?
The bigot who spouted this should have no place on a day honoring all Americans. What was Obama thinking. Really?
I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races - that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And in as much as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.
Screw that guy. Really, anybody who says this should not be a big part of the ceremony. It is a betrayal to my people and my ancestors who were human beings and not cattle. This man is the antithesis of all that I believe in and all that I have worked hard for.
I say upon this occasion I do not perceive that because the white man is to have the superior position the negro should be denied everything. I do not understand that because I do not want a negro woman for a slave I must necessarily want her for a wife. My understanding is that I can just let her alone. I am now in my fiftieth year, and I certainly never had a black woman for either a slave or a wife. So it seems to me quite possible for us to get along without making either slaves or wives of negroes. I will add to this that I have never seen, to my knowledge, a man, woman, or child who was in favor of producing a perfect equality, social and political, between negroes and white men.
Really Obama, I don't get it. Are you a self racist? Why even dedicate an inch of your time to this man in order to reach out to people who admire him? Are you serious?
Oh...what did you say? Lincoln? You mean the entire program is based on Abraham Lincoln?
Seriously?
Oh well. But still, screw that guy. No seriously.
