The scary thing is these so called normal Americans that are his fainting followers of the messiah Obama are NOT normal by no means! I’ve heard just like they have heard CHANGE, HOPE and UNITY for months now. The not so normal Americans are satisfied with this.

I love Peggy Noonan’s writing, probably second only to Mark Steyn in my book. This article is one of her best, and it’s spot-on.

That’s a great link...thanks for passing it on.

I read Obamamama’s thesis...it took me 25 minutes. What a snoozer! She is definitely not “brilliant”. And she likes Stokely Carmichael.

“Barack Obama is a liberal, and for that reason should be opposed. For you to run around crying affirmative action when he’s by all appearances being a better writer, more self-aware, and more talented than almost every politician out there is, yes, racist.”

Ha! I win. In this election cycle, whoever calls someone a racist first, replacing Hitler or fascist, has run out of arguments.

Oh and Obambi reminds me of Michael Jackson during his Thriller period. Does that make me a antipedophile?

So EVERY achievement by a white woman or black person is the result of AA? That’s ignorant.

No, actually I don’t believe that for a second, but you were complaining about perception. There is no doubt that AA promotes people that don’t deserve it. Do away with it. Period. Be truly color blind. I think Blacks and women are fully capable of competeing on equal footing. Do you?

My wife makes more than I do, my step daughter made more than I did before she quit to raise kids. I know what people can do. By the way, my step daughter HATES AA because to many of the wrong people get promoted.

A fair shake that is both race and gender blind is the correct answer.
