Barcky is left-handed too, Dana.

Oliver “I keep Dolly Madison in business all by myself” Willis once told us that it is racist to call him articulate. Or clean.

Well, don’t expect people to say nice things about you when you hang out with a bunch of RW, Redneck, Peckerwood, Neanderthals.

But Eric Blair, I’m a oppressed multi-group member: AmericanIndian, Jewish, female, Christian, Conservative and…and….left-handed! I top him yet I could never (nor would I ever) make such a blunder without coals being heaped on my head.

No worries, Dana. As a member of an “oppressed group,” the man is exempt from that kind of criticism.

Just watch.

He has spent his entire life being told everything he did and said was just dandy. This job, POTUS, will be different (at least outside the DNC and MSM). It’ll be interesting to see his outrage develop.

Can’t people just let him eat his waffle? And watch for Vulcan neck pinches on journalists who annoy him.

This whole thing is so funny. Our culture is hyper-sensitive about almost everything, thanks to the whining squishes on the left…yet it’s the lefties’ own supreme leader that is doing the offending! Delicious irony there.

Even when you get beyond who BHO surrounded himself with in his early days, the current crop of advisers and confidants is not exactly awe-inspiring.
Geithner…the financial wizard;
Gibbs…the stumble bum mouthpiece;
Shinseki…the military genius who thinks the war injured should pay for their own medical care;
LaHood…who just knows that 97 Mexican trucks will completely destroy the transportation business;
Hillary….who can’t find a competent translator;
Rom…a nicely dressed street-thug from Chi-town with very questionable judgement;
and, what does it say that the Intel shops are overseen by someone (Blair) who had no reservations about Chas Freeman?

Which brings us to TOTUS….who is the gnome in the back room putting words in the mouth of the marionette?

I think the paradigm, or essence, of what’s wrong with “The One” is best summed up by his relationship with Jeremiah Wright.

I’ve mulled that matter over in my mind for several months, trying to flip the example around, trying to imagine my reaction to a conservative politician embracing an ultra-rightwing preacher man—favoring him so much that he’d be picked as a major advisor (as Obama did with Wright), much less having him preside over the politician’s marrige ceremony.

Or, for that matter, trying to imagine my personally having to scrutinize and judge someone before deciding to confide in him (or her) and making him a close, trusted advisor.

In either case, whether observing the behavior of Obama towards a “Goddamn America” fanatic, or, say, the scenario of Reagan or Bush embracing and coddling a neurotic, “I hate Jews!” “blacks are the devil!” fundamentalist minister, I’d conclude there was a big, big problem there, with both the advisor and, if you will, the advisee.
