Surprise!

In 2008 53% of Americans voted to elect Barack Obama as our President ... many based on the premise that this would prove that they were not racists ... and, as an added benefit, the stain of slavery would be forever removed from our country's cirriculum vitae.  Now we discover that Obama's "typical white folks" comment (referring to his Caucasian grandparents) back in those Helicon days was just a peek behind the curtain of his inherent reverse racism.  Pulling the curtain all the way back, we now discover the true extent of Obama's odium toward many of those who elected him to the highest office in this country.  It's not a pretty picture ... see: Daily Caller Video.  (Those of you who chose not to click on this link, needn't continue reading.) 

Why this fairly bright, extensively privileged man of mixed racial heritage would have such animosity toward half of his DNA frankly escapes me?  Perhaps his white mother's radical teachings in his formative years?  Perhaps his lost love and longing for his African father?  Perhaps some anti-American indoctrination in the madrassas he attended in Indonesia?  Perhaps his experiences as a community organizer among Chicago street gangs?  Perhaps his friendship with that anarchist, Bill Ayres?  Perhaps listening for 20 years to the pulpit rantings of that avowed racist, Reverend Wright and his Black Liberation Theology teachings?

Whatever the root cause of his deep-seated racial bias, I think those of us willing to see can clearly follow Obama's governing track for evidence of this crippling slant ... not just his back-seat decision-making, but his wreckless mortgaging of our country's future.  By comparison, such a rant makes Romney's "47%" comment look pale ... if you will excuse the expression
