You Would Have To Invent Him

clipped from pajamasmedia.com The problem with the Obama Marin County speech, inter alia, is that it invites comparison to himself—as all condescension does, being the nursemaid to hypocrisy. So if religion is a crutch for the embittered of Middle America, what is the creepy Rev. Wright for Obama? Where Does that Leave Us? As I keep saying ad nauseam—about where McGovern was in September 1972, Why? All one has to do is to read the two Obama memoirs, review the careers of his mother and father and the views they promulgated, wade through the Wright corpus, remember the message that is conveyed in black liberation theology, remember even more the world view that predominates at Harvard Law School and Columbia, collate all that with the benefits that accrue to someone that goes into the industry of racial grievance, remediation, and white guilt and recompense, and, presto, if you didn’t have Barack Obama you would have to invent him.
