[Paleo Conservative]

Martin Luther King, 1963, "I have a dream!"

Barack Hussein Obama, 2008, "I have an excuse!"

Yup. I am right there with that article.

Obama is no different than any other socialist Democrat. He’s worse if anything.

Irrelevant indeed. Why would ANYONE take seriously a lecture on race relations from a man who for twenty years belonged to and supported an openly racist institution? For the problem at Obama’s church goes well beyond Obama’s close association with the rabid, foaming-at-the-mouth hate-whitey/hate America pastor Wright. When Wright mocked the disappearance and almost certain death of missing white teenager Holloway, the “congregation” laughed, applauded and shouted approval. When Wright trumpeted the lurid blood libel that White America invented AIDS to kill Africans, the audience stomped its feet in mindless approbation. The very ethos of Obama’s church was poisoned with vehement racism and hatred. Obama chose to expose his innocent children to this toxic atmosphere. No, thanks Mr. Obama. No sermons from you.

From NR’s the Corner:

Obama then and now [Mark Steyn]

From a reader of mine in Quebec:

Old Barack:

Don’t tell me words don’t matter.

‘I have a dream.’ Just words?

‘We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal.’ Just words?

‘We have nothing to fear but fear itself.’ Just words? Just speeches?

New Barack:

‘God damn America.’ Just words.

‘US government created Aids, supplied drugs to our community.’ Just words.

‘US of KKKA.’ Just words.

‘What we are doing is the same thing al-Qaeda is doing.’ Just words.

‘Until now, I was never proud of my country.’ Just words from my wife.
