Why should he obsess? He's get every liberal crazy out there doing his dirty work for him, while he does the dirty work for his Puppetmaster...

Double standard takes on a whole new meaning.

If Bummer has a speck of brains, he has to realize that racial opprobrium is just about dead last on the list of things that inspire public ire against him.

... takes the high road...

That's a laugh.

From where HE stands, Obama has to crane his neck to even see the sign that says "High Road - 500 miles UP".

Translation: "We all KNOW everyone who opposes me is a racist, but I'm ever so much BETTER than everyone else that I will not concern myself with it. Besides, I'm too busy trying to turn this country into a third-world back-water to pay attention to Those People."

Obama’s silence to Carter’s remarks and the MSM 24/7 coverage of it: “Qui tacet consentit” (silence implies consent)

We've seen this dog and pony show before. Remember how the drive by media would uncover divorce records and use them against Obama's opponents? Obama could claim he was above it all since the media was doing his dirty work.

The same rigmarole is happening now.

Nice one!

Actually this is more of the case where Obama’s PR team asked Carter to say something stupid so Obama could go on record as denying it while allowing Carter’s statement to get more air time.

For those who don’t know how PR works, when you want to sell a book you wrote you get your PR to book you spots on talk shows so you can speak for 5 seconds after being introduced for 5 minutes by a gushing host who just can’t get enough of the book you just wrote.

Similarly, if you want to say something inflammatory, your PR team will find somebody to make the statement for you so it can ring out to the public. Doing so allows you to go on the record looking good denying it, but at the same time, repeating the inflammatory statement increasing the press it gets.

Obama and McCain both did this at town halls with plants who would throw mud at the opponent. Thus McCain and Obama could go on record as gentlemanly while actually just regurgitating the mud. It’s an ancient tactic.

“Obama takes high road on Carter’s racism claim”

I assume the Son of Obama is not “obsessing about the racial aspects” Carter’s views about the Jews, Israel and Palestine, correct?
