What I heard in Obama’s speech was that we should not judge his good reverand by the content of his character but by the color of his skin. He turned MLK’s dream speech on its head; and yet, the media swoons over his delivery and ignores the content of his speeches.
The democrats have made this a race about race and are trying to blame the republicans on being racist. Steyn is absolutely correct — but then again, when is he not?
Looks like Oblama could get away with yelling change, change, change for only so long before someone started looking at who the changeor really is. And when they do most people are disgusted with who they discover.
But there should be some reflection, and then consequences now that we have seen the hate spewing forth from the black churches. As one 60's Freedom Rider put it, "I didn't do it for this". And Obama makes clear that Rev. Wright is not untypical. This opens the issue of whether current policies are doing more harm than good.
Of course, Steyn is a treasure!
Excellent distillation from a huge pile of charismatic but empty BS that was O's speech into two sentences of irrefutable clarity.
I ain't too good at that myself, so, if you don't mind, I'm going to use your two sentences in any conversations I get into with pro-O folks. I hope everybody else does too because that can be said with disappointment and no trace of hostility, racism, etc.
Much more effective than arguing.

GREAT POINT!!!!!!!
