"Everything [Obama] does is subject to a different lens
and seen through a microscope that really tends to pick him apart. I think it's
indivisible from the broader issue of his race, of his being a black man with a
certain kind of authority. These are impolite things we don't want to talk
about. We think that they're being extraordinary ratcheted up. But I don't see
any other way to explain it but a remarkable resistance to the integrity of
this man that has no other explanation." --Georgetown University professor Michael Eric Dyson
Upon reading the above statement from a learned and revered professor
of Sociology at one of our more prestigious universities, I could not help but
thank God I did not attend that institution.
Dr. Dyson needs to put aside this proclivity to lean on race
as the “go to” answer on issues surrounding President Obama and look more to
the man. Most assuredly Obama is black, yet the general disdain for him resides
not in that fact, but quite simply in the President’s doltish and oft times
ridiculous behavior. His attempt to “dress down” the Supreme Court in which
this supposed scholar of Constitutional law displayed his ignorance of the very
basic concept of the separation of powers is a good example of which I speak.
Not to mention the stale dogmatic proclamations of his “Hard work in creating
jobs”. Jobs that never come into being because, only the private sector can
create jobs not government. His pandering to the poor, feeling their pain, with
homespun demagoguery, while his wife is relaxing in Hawaii on the taxpayers
dime could be viewed in a negative light no matter what race the man is no?.
Perhaps Mr. Dyson the American people have realized that the man who occupies
the empty suit isn’t so much a black man but a dumb one, and in so doing have
learned they have been duped.
