You got the following sooooooo right in response to Chris Matthews calling Obama a rockstar like Tiger Woods and Oprah!!

"Tsk, tsk. Liberals will never learn.

People don't love Tiger because he's black. They love him because he has 54 (!) PGA wins, taking enormous risks when necessary. He's on track to being the greatest golfer of all time. He's earned every adulation through hard work, personal achievement and incredible talent. He is also a polished gentleman...who never plays the race card.

People don't love Oprah because she's black. They love her because she's one of the most successful business persons EVER...a polished gentlewoman who never "gets in the face" of her guests. She turned a successful TV program into a media empire. And she doesn't play the race card.

Now, what has Obama done? Well...he's black! He got elected to the Senate, running against the disgraceful secret divorce records of a weak Republican opponent. He took no controversial positions and has introduced no meaningful legislation. He's played it safe, aligning himself whenever possible with fence-straddlers like McCain on feel-good themes like campaign finance reform. He's a chimera created on the PC altar of the MSM, just the latest example of the MSM falling all over themselves because a black man is "articulate" or "good looking" (how racist is that?!).

The folks will see through it in a heartbeat."
