Poor Glenn.
His "Common Sense" is currently the #1 Nonfiction Paperback on the NYT best sellers list.
And his audience on Fox is how many times larger than anything he ever dreamed of having on CNN?
And to lose the ultimate evil of corporate sponsors in the form of WallyWorld?
Let's say it together now . . . Poor Glenn.
Btw - Obama was sold to us as being post-racial, sad that he turned out to be just the opposite and is instead hyper-racial.
I think "hyper-racial" is inaccurate. If it is your response to the Prof. Gates episode, I think you are reading way too much into a single event.
Take a look at the entirety of his administration, appointments, pronouncements after six months, and certainly wait until making such a harsh judgement.
Not responding to a single event at all.
And guess that was worded poorly on my part. Should have said that he was sold to all of you as being post-racial.
Personally never bought any of it as the Chosen One has never flinched from playing the race card when needed, including throughout his campaign for the Presidency.
Sadly sometimes even when he didn't need to.
