It will be an interesting general election campaign when no one is allowed to say anything about Obama’s statements, associations, history, voting (or lack of ) record, policies (or the lack thereof), or anything else. I don’t believe that he’s really that thin-skinned, I think that he’s cynically using people’s “sensitivity” to criticising a black man as a sweeping weapon against any attack, no matter how legitimate. I don’t like McCain, but at this point I so despise Obama and am so worried about the future of this republic, that I hope McCain, of all people, will not fall for this.The best way to neutralise this “invisible shield” of immunity from legitimate questioning, is to simply come right out and call him on it, in plain English. McCain needs to ask, is everything off-limits regarding Obama, is any question about any aspect of Obama’s history and beleifs off-limits? Or is the emperor really naked? This is one time that I would like to see McCain’s famous temper, as in truly righteous indignation he asks Obama just what can he be questioned about, if not his own words? And tear down this false wall of hypocritical and cynical immunity that Obama and his supporters have placed around him. If there was ever a time for McCain to have righteous anger, this would be it. Or is he going to reserve that for conservatives and Republicans?
Two of the main issues that need to be discussed in this election year are 1.) the color of Obama’s skin and 2.) his belief in Black Liberation Theology. If anyone needs to see what can happen when a country is given to blacks to run, just look at the ‘liberated’ countries of Africa. Just check out the slide into murder, mayhem, and starvation that resulted after the colonized African countries were restored to blacks.
