John Kass is one of the best conservative political columnists in the country. He understands liberals an awful lot better than you apparently do. He knows that satire can be effective once in a while, but he’s done his share of straight-talking skewering of Obama. You might want to read a few dozen of his columns before passing judgment on him.
I’m commenting on this column.
And I’ll add this—if you watch “comic” portrayals of Obama, like on SNL, they portray him as less cool than Obama really is. Like Bush, when he turns off the politician mode, he can be quite genial. Yet he is portrayed like some kind of idealized, dispassionate student body president.
