I don’t really care what he calls himself — he can be a purple-polka dotted hippopotamus if he wishes. My point was about the author, Star Parker, so easily accepting Obama’s self-applied label that ignores the fact of his white heritage. It shows the continuing success of the repeated lie technique behind the “one-drop” baloney of Jim Crow. As a matter of principle, I think conservatives ought to try to own precise language as a logical tool of discussion. This is merely an example.

Have a good day, my FRiend!!

Excuse me but what you said in your original comment was that Maxine Waters shouldn’t call him black because he is half white. I said that black is the only thing he could be called because that is what the blacks in this country do, regardless of their blood mixture. Therefore you did care what others, including himself, called him. Let it lie there and good day.
