Another great article from Thomas Sowell, eviscerating Obama and Wright, while telling the truth about the value of the work ethic.

He is wonderful, simply wonderful.

Sowell never fails to remind me of the value and meaning in being blessed to be born American, and my responsibility to be a good citizen.

Obama did a complete makeover, now portraying himself as a healer of divisions.

Too bad he’s not on the ballot in November.

Why not Thomas Sowell, instead of Osama Hussein Obama?

This man is a true American hero and precisely the kind of man that Republicans need to get back to our roots.

You want to know what I think? Read Thomas Sowell, and you’ll know!

With the exception that I would love to see Sowell comment on a certain blog by a professor (Steve Boriss) in St. Louis . . . http://thefutureofnews.com/vision-future/

You will not be surprised to learn that Boriss quotes Sowell very approvingly . . .

Thomas Sowell may have coined a new acronym for leftists == SAL Self-Aggrandizing Left[ists].

his concluding paragraphs:

In the real world, a sense of grievance or entitlement, as a result of the mistreatment of your ancestors, is not likely to get you very far with people who are too busy dealing with current economic realities to spend much time thinking about their own ancestors, much less other people’s ancestors.

Another seemingly unrelated experience was being in a crowd at a graveside in a Jewish cemetery last week. That crowd included people who were black, white, Asian, Catholic, Jewish and no doubt others. This country has come a long way, just in my lifetime.

We don’t need people like either Jeremiah Wright or Barack Obama to take us backward.

The time is long overdue to stop gullibly accepting the left’s vision of itself as idealistic, rather than self-aggrandizing.

Another winner from the embodiment of common sense.

Yeah. Poor Pastor Wright has to live in a "White" neighborhood in a $1 Million Dollar home! Oh the humanity!
