I agree- that flap was completely idiotic. The media is clearly schizophrenic about Barack Obama and doesn’t know how to have a sense of humor about him. They have no idea how to treat him like a regular politician– which includes heavy satire– due to discomfort about his race. It’s pathetic.
Holy cow, that has to be the fastest post-to-comment time I’ve ever had on one of my blogs! That must mean — gasp — at least one person has *subscribed* to this thing? I find myself utterly humbled and at the same time somewhat concerned about your sense of taste. 😉
Should Fortune decide to smile once again upon this land, and grant us in November not the President we deserve but the President we *aspire* to deserve, it would be such a cosmic, soul-refreshing relief to have as our national representative a man who can speak in entire sentences — paragraphs, even — and who can articulate a coherent line of reasoning and engage in actual dialogue with other people.
