From the conservative blogger site,
The TexasFred Blog, I selected this blog
piece Obama: Martin ‘could
have been me’ 35 years ago to critique.
The author is Fred Witzell, a self described “highly opinionated and
very Conservative blogger” who “does not play the PC game.” The tone in this blog is harsh and it is
apparent that this blogger has contempt for the Obama administration, if not
also for President Obama personally. His
argument is that President Obama is a racist and uses his mixed race to his
political advantage. It is a post that
is meant to further incite those that already do not sympathize with the
President; he loosely presents “facts” and mostly personal opinion to support
his argument. A caption on a picture of Obama seems to chide him for addressing
the Travon Martin ruling instead of the Detroit bankruptcy, followed by
descriptions of the President as “EVIL” and “RACIST.” Furthermore, he claims that the President’s
goal is to incite race riots in this country by incurring marital law and
confiscating all guns.
Needless to say, I completely
disagree with this author’s inciting views.
The author writes for his very conservative base and fails to provide
any direct support for his comments. His
strong reactions make him sound almost paranoid. I may be on the other side of the political
spectrum, but I think even for the very conservative he goes over the top with
his views. At the same time, I know
there is wide discontent with the current administration among this group, but
all credibility is lost here.
