“That is the price to be paid for ignoring reality when it knocks on your door.”

Barack Obama is too poorly educated to respond adequately to these challenges. He has never done any serious reading or put in any other sort of intellectual effort into these matters. Obama is essentially a pampered yuppie who never had to work hard for much of anything his entire life. He has always, since his teen years, relied on exploiting white guilt. This was also never any mystery for those paying attention long before the election. We now have to worry about Obama experiencing a nervous breakdown. Can Obama even begin to handle disappointment and declining poll numbers?

Far too many naive people think that all “men of color” had to overcome huge obstacles. This may have been somewhat true for those born in 1951—but Obama was born in 1961! The successes of the Civil Rights movement had already been accomplished by the time he reached his teens. This guy has enjoyed a free ride. Obama has much in common with all the other spoiled yuppies. These individuals have been raised with a silver spoon in their mouth. Do yourself a favor. Try to imagine that Obama is a white dude. That’s all it will take to help you to finally admit that he is an empty suit.
