When Charlie rose asked him about being “black enough”, Obama said watch me hail a cab outside and you’ll see how black I am. That sort of response gives me hope.

You wanted that tricycle.

You deserved that tricycle.

Your parents worked hard to buy you that tricycle.

But thanks to affirmative action and liberal guilt,* that tricycle went to a less-deserving minority.

Dan Riehl. He feels your pain.

*Don’t ask me how, it’s complicated.

Reihl asks:

And where was Jeremiah Wright in the days of Dr. King? He was the correct age to have been involved, to have been down with the cause. Yet his biographies do not even mention Dr. King’s name, let alone his legacy.

Answer:
In the U.S. Marine Corps.

Man, the GOP are shitting themselves in fear over him, aren’t they?

Oh, yeah. Just because he acts like an adult doesn’t mean he’s weak. Not at all.

There’s a very famous picture on the wall behind his desk in his Senate office. It shows the climactic moment of the Ali-Liston fight. The one where Liston is sprawled on his back on the canvas, whipped like a redheaded stepchild, and Ali’s standing over him yelling “GET UP SUCKA!”

I think we can all smell what Barack is cookin’. (It doesn’t matter what your name is!)

The trike’s OK, but if I find out Barack had a pony, he doesn’t get my vote.
