It's not because I suck ...

President Obama thinks some people don’t like him because of his race.

“There’s no doubt that there’s some folks who just really dislike me because they don’t like the idea of a black President,” Obama told The New Yorker’s David Remnick in the magazine’s Jan. 27 issue.

“Now, the flip side of it is there are some black folks and maybe some white folks who really like me and give me the benefit of the doubt precisely because I’m a black President,” he added.

The article noted that Obama lost white voters in 2012 by history’s largest margin for a winning presidential candidate, and that his plunge in the polls last year – which many pundits declared the worst year of his presidency — was steepest among whites.

Some observers immediately mocked Obama for suggesting that race — and not his policies — is the reason for his dismal numbers.

“I’m fine with losing my job, losing insurance, being audited. I just can’t stand that he’s black,” @OrwellForce snarked on Twitter, cramming the weak economy, Obamacare and the IRS’s scrutiny of political nonprofits into one tweet.

Now that Obama has ALL the info he needed, he's cutting back on the NSA.

Don't worry. They are going o change who "holds" that info. That's the main change.

WHL, You piss me off that you doubted me. Just like my namesake Achigan, I am a ferocious fighter.

You can't pick on me! I'm black!

That you quit?????? I thought you were a fighter, that's why I was surprised you dropped out.

I didn't quit. And I didn't drop out. I was catching my breath.

Good, I am glad to hear that you didn't drop out. I missed you to help me battle Achigan and NB.

Semper Fee!

Always taxing!
