what kind of people are we that allow our political conversation to be decided not on the issue but on the personality of the president or the color of his skin. Maybe its okay that Barack does this, because hes black and well spoken as opposed to a smug white frat boy like George Bush, so you dont have to change the policy, maybe thats the message for America is you dont have to change the policy, just change the package." It seems to that it must be ok to be smug if you are black because from my observation Barak is much more smug than Bush ever was. Every mannerism of Obama screams Oh, you wish you were me.
