"I realize that being one of the few voices of dissent during all this made me sound like the consummate crab in a barrel (word to Tavis), but my Negro Spidey Sense just gets agitated when I hear such proclamations. Reality is, folks have never changed by osmosis, change is a gradual, difficult, and painful process that requires patience, hard work, and sacrifice. And lets not forget, for all the progress made last November 4th, only 65% of eligible blacks even bothered to turn off Judge Mathis and head down to their local polling place. If you can’t get Negroes to simply show up and pull a lever, how likely are you to get them to suddenly become Cliff Huxtable and raise their damn kids?"

The Lesson of an Affirmative Action President
"You don't pick brain surgeons by the color of their skin. You pick them by competence only. Same thing with airplane pilots. But we have allowed the profoundly irrational liberal media to persuade the American public that we are supposed to pick a U.S. president by affirmative action. Obama was elected to universal Hosannas because he is black. It wasn't a secret. That's why the Left around the world went into ecstasies when Obama ran and got elected."

"Meanwhile, blacks are still suffering from the pervasive social pathology of the inner city -- almost all self-inflicted, with the help of the welfare state. Europe shows exactly the same results, except that the victims of welfarism aren't black, but mostly white and Muslim immigrants. American blacks today are more bitter and more racially enraged than ever before, after forty years of affirmative action. Affirmative action hasn't helped women, who now have to work two jobs, one at home and one for income, especially because so many men have walked away from their families under liberal cultural values. Reverse-racism has actively hurt generations of children, who have grown up in broken homes as a direct result of pernicious social policies which Obama has actually tried to make worse. One of the first things he did was to reverse Clinton's welfare reform so that social pathology in the black community can spread its poison even wider and deeper. Obama isn't good for black people -- but then, blacks consistently vote for those who do them the most harm."

Blaming Whitey
"By convincing whites of guilt by association, the Left can induce them to act against their own best interests. Sheepish whites will give up first-class health care and sacrifice Granny for reasons of "justice." Or they'll embrace illegal aliens, even if this means a degraded standard of living.
"Brainwashed Americans will even risk their own safety and excuse crime. ('It's not my mugger's fault. He's a victim of white privilege.') They'll offer up their own children to hostile public schools for the utopian vision of multiculturalism.
"They'll do anything, in fact, to get that scarlet letter 'R' (Racist) off their backs. Most disturbingly, guilty whites will support a president who obviously despises them.
"Think I'm exaggerating about Obama? Just witness his contempt on any given day, whether he's demeaning Middle America, or Sen. Scott Brown's truck, or the Cambridge Police.
"And behold Obama's friends: Eric Holder, who is revolted by our nation of cowards, and Michelle Obama, whose enraged speeches, caught on tape, can make your skin crawl.
"For possibly the first time in our history, we have leaders who can't stand most of the people who elected them. And Obama and his crew are working overtime to get whites to detest themselves too."
Has Obama become bored with being president?
"At a Jan. 17 Martin Luther King Day event at Washington's Vermont Avenue Baptist Church, Obama brought up the fact that many people see him as almost preternaturally calm. 'I have a confession to make,' Obama said. 'There are times I'm not so calm ... when progress seems too slow ... when it feels like all these efforts are for naught, and change is so painfully slow in coming, and I have to confront my own doubts.'
"Obama said it to be inspirational, but the fact is, in the past, that's when he looked for a new job."

George Will: Faux Contrition: Obama Blames the Public
"Acknowledging that the longer the public has looked at the legislation the less the public has liked it, he blamed himself for not 'explaining it more clearly.' But his faux contrition actually blames the public: The problem is not the legislation's substance but the presentation of it to slow learners. He urged them to take 'another look at the plan we've proposed.' The plan? The differences between the House and Senate plans are not trivial; they concern how to pay for the enormous new entitlement."
