Mark Steyn on The Indefinable Obama

...Obama is defined by his indefinability. When I pointed out… that he lives in a swank pad that was part of some shady real estate deal with a convicted fraudster (Tony Rezko), that he entrusted his daughters’ entire religious education to a neo-segregationist anti-American nut who preaches that the government created the AIDS virus to kill black people (Jeremiah Wright), that he attended fundraisers with a political patron who’s an unrepentant terrorist proud of plotting to blow up young ladies just like them at a dance at the Fort Dix military base (William Ayers), when I pointed all this out, they looked at me as if I’d brought a baseball bat to a croquet match. Mere earthbound politicians are defined by their real estate deals and sleazy buddies, but Obama is defined only by his vibe. As his many admirers in France would say, he has a certain je ne sais quoi. And, if you try to pin down quoi precisely, then they don’t want to sais.

Obama appeals to the whole “don’t bother me with the facts” set. Unfortunately, that includes much of the MSM which should be helping to vet all candidates for the highest office in the land.

Steyn is a brilliant observationalist. The whoopin’ he just put on Canada’a speech police was impressive.


The future ain’t what it used to be…..

Best line:

Gaze into the giant zero of the Obama logo, the hole in the star-spangled donut, the vast fathomless nullity that is the gaping keyhole to the door of utopia.

However, being “Stupid” gets you embraced with open arms..
