Obama stooped to a new low in dredging for black votes. Recently he promoted more riots - as in 15-years-ago riots - as a way for blacks to express themselves.
"This administration was colorblind in its incompetence," Obama said at a conference of black clergy, according to an Associated Press report.
He repeatedly talked of riots for past injustices that had nothing to do with Bush - Rodney King beating, for instance - alluding to the riots that followed, which, of course, has nothing to do with the President's incompetence.
Obama's point was, in the words of the reporter, "Bush administration has done nothing to defuse a 'quiet riot' among blacks that threatens to erupt just as riots in Los Angeles did 15 years ago."
Threatens to erupt? Says who? Why that would be the man who wants to become our President.
Threatens to erupt? Yes, but only now, because Obama is promoting rioting by this speech.
But it pleased the crowed. His blather "got ovation after ovation" from the black clergy at Hampton University.
Election points? Not from anyone who sees rioting, quiet or otherwise, as a really stupid way to communicate.
No. But the more Obama has the misfortune to open his mouth in public, the more he is seen as just another person who will assume any pose for the sake of votes.
We already have rosters full of them in both of the political parties.
