“On Tuesday, Liz Cheney, the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, continued the family’s air assault on Obama that began shortly after he became the nation’s first African-American president.”
Why include the token line about being the first African-American president? Relevance? Anyone?

Obviously the line was included to imply that Cheney is criticizing Obamachev because he is a racist.

I saw that too. Only injected in there to make the Cheneys’ “attack” on 0bama look racially motivated.

Why include the token line about being the first African-American president? Relevance? Anyone? They want to make sure that we understand she is criticizing Obama because she is a racist.

Sooner or later, black Americans are going to have to disown Oba Mao. He is NOT a descendant of slaves. More than likely, his Daddy was a descendant of slave traders who were mainly forced to give up that sorry trade by British warships patrolling the coast of Kenya and Somalia a quarter century or so after our Civil War.
Real descendants of American slaves who have done real research into their family tree like Alex Haley of Roots fame have discovered that slaves originated overwhelmingly from west central Africa. The slave traders overwhelmingly originated from northeast Africa, notably Kenya, Somalia and Sudan, the only place where it is still practiced today.
So Zero's ancestors have more responsibility for slavery in America than your average white guy's ancestors.
