MICKEY KAUS: “Didn’t Jesse Jackson Sr. have a point? There is something condescending, or arrogant, in Obama’s lecture to a town hall meeting in Georgia. . . . Obama’s lecture to parents about how ‘you need to make sure your child can speak Spanish’? Also condescending! Especially since, as Abe Greenwald points out, Obama doesn’t speak Spanish.”

Actually, the substance of his ‘it’s embarrassing when Europeans come over here blah blah’ doesn’t really bother me. I just wish he wouldn’t say OUT LOUD how embarrassed he is by the very people he seeks to represent! I would think it a privilege to serve the American people, you know?

Yeah, you’d think.
