Obama’s Speech On Wright Draws Comparisons To FDR, Lincoln From The New York Times
Fawning so blatant and egregious it’s almost sickening.
There are moments — increasingly rare in risk-abhorrent modern campaigns — when politicians are called upon to bare their fundamental beliefs. In the best of these moments, the speaker does not just salve the current political wound, but also illuminates larger, troubling issues that the nation is wrestling with.
Inaugural addresses by Abraham Lincoln and Franklin D. Roosevelt come to mind, as does John F. Kennedy’s 1960 speech on religion, with its enduring vision of the separation between church and state. Senator Barack Obama, who has not faced such tests of character this year, faced one on Tuesday. It is hard to imagine how he could have handled it better…
There have been times when we wondered what Mr. Obama meant when he talked about rising above traditional divides. This was not such a moment.
Allah responds:
If the last 20 years count for anything, the best estimates of his “fundamental beliefs” are that the United States is a racist hegemon begging to have jets flown into office towers to teach it a thing or two about imperialism. He’s a gutless, opportunistic coward who was afraid to say an unkind word to one of the power brokers in the black community on whom he counted for votes as an Illinois politician, and now that he’s a national figure he’s throwing the same guy under the bus to preserve the illusion that he’s a “post-racial” politician. And you’re sitting there cheering him on because you don’t care what sort of idiocy or anti-American vitriol you have to swallow to put a Democrat back into the White House. Does that about sum it up? Have I missed any “nuance” in the “U.S. government created the AIDS virus” rant that Obama never, ever heard anything about and that you’re now willing to wave away?
What’s rather stunning is that the left, especially those in the media, do not tolerate this kind of kookiness from the right. When Pat Robertson suggested that 9/11 was punishment for America’s misdeeds he was pilloried in the press. And rightfully so, in my humble estimation. But Obama’s reverend makes the same sort of claims, and worse, and the mainstream media is falling all over themselves to forgive and forget.
It’d be funny if it weren’t so pathetic and there weren’t so much at stake here.
