The late Mr. Blackwell could have gotten a job as a political reporter for McClatchy newspapers. Should you doubt this assessment, then check out this McClatchy newspapers report about Barack Obama written by Halimah Abdullah which was described by McClatchy Watch as sounding like a cross between GQ and Teen magazine. A video showing Obama "Yes We Can" power ties was even included at the top of the story. You won't find a trace of political analysis in the story by this political reporter but it is chock full of fashion:

Just as President John F.

PING!
Is this another Evangelical Obamist article?
Didn’t Joe Biden call him ‘clean’ as well? Clean? Clean-cut? I forget... *SMIRK*
Kennedy probably had to wear looser suits because he wore a back brace. What’s Obambi’s excuse?
Same dufuses that run the Anchorage Daily News, pure filth. I am glad to hear that they are going down the drain
“worn with hip-hop generation self-assurance”

OK. Scuze me. I consider myself a ‘fashionista’ and have worked in ‘many a high-end boutique’..........but ‘HIP-HOP? Oh, dear. SnoopDawg? Post-posterior jeans with designer undies flaunted? Improper English (ebonics)? ‘Hood’ behavior as a ‘mark of pride’? How...............’Presidential’.
Stay classy (assy) UhBamUh! Cha-Ching. Next will all be ‘drankin’ ‘sizzurp’ or ‘lean’ while listening to rap. Yo.
Are we permitted to mention Halmah Abdullah’s middle name?
OBidenski said that OBamBam is a “clean and articulate” black.
Well, isn’t that special ...
The “reporter” is obviously sexually attracted to Tweety.
