I’m glad that someone finally explained the derivation of that phrase to me. Since I don’t watch idiotic sitcoms, I didn’t get the allusion.

Obama is actually a smooth rhetoritician. If he was up front about what he was saying he’d have used Marxist terminology like “false consciousness” and “opiate of the people”. He plainly believes all human behavior is reducible to economic motivations—straight dialectical materialism—but he couches it in bland tropes instead of leaden jargon.

"Raised by typical whites - so I guess you could argue he is more white than black."

My recollection (I admit I do not recall the source) is that Obama has stated that he was subjected to discrimination as a youth, therefore, over time, he began to consider himself black.

To the marxist rat, religion is something bitter confused people turn to. It is not in the rat’s mental capacity to understand religion because his religion is Big Government.
