Dayum! This dude's not going to have any friends by the end of four years! Ha! Un-freaking-believable. Only in America, folks. Only in America. h/t WW in comments.
WASHINGTON (AFP) – Decrying Barack Obama as "white power in black face," hundreds of African-Americans marched on the White House Saturday to protest policies of the first black US president, and demand that he bring US troops home.
More than 200 people gathered for the first public demonstration by African Americans against the Obama administration since his historic inauguration in January, and slammed the president for continuing what they described as Washington's "imperialist" agenda around the world.
"We recognize that Barack Hussein Obama is white power in black face," civil rights activist Omali Yeshitela, chairman of the Black is Back coalition which arranged the protest, called into a megaphone as the group marched outside the mansion's gates.
200?? That's real impressive compared to >1 million and 20K - 50K (depending on reports) for 9/12 and 11/5. Oh, and we had black folks, too. Who are the racists?? Also, looks like someone's gettin' jealous.

It's a shame that all these white people just can't stand having a black man as President. It just drives them crazy!
They're all a bunch of closet KKK members, I bet.
