Eggplant: They did it because they did not have anything else. The philosophy of modern Liberalism is ultimately about believing in less and less and finally you get to believing in nothing but seeking personal power. Bill Clinton came in and delivered the deathblow.

Newscaper: I think that American blacks are going to be really P.O.ed in the long run. If Obama wins his inevitable screw-ups will make no one want to elect a black for dogcatcher. If he loses, his presentation of the “new” face of Black Political Power – dishonest, virulently anti-American, and Marxist, will have damaged them irreparably. And then there are the attitudes toward race relations; with I have no problems with black people and met another black man with whom I have much in common just the other day. But if Obama wins I will never meet another one without thinking “You gave us that Marxist liar.” Going from Condelezza Rice to Barak Hussien Obama is a blow from which they will never recover.
