And doesn’t it only make sense that one day Barry would declare his manhood by announcing that “I am Barak Hussein, son of Obama, inheritor of hope and change, leader of the oppressed to the hopeful and changed land, promiser of hope, agent of change, here to give hope through change and ever dedicated to the hope of change and the change brought about through the audacity of hope.”

Honestly, how can you guys keep saying he doesn’t have a program?

Just FYI.

Let’s see – the Dhimmicrats made hay out of McCain’s birthplace being the Panama Canal Zone (a U.S. territory), which has now been rendered irrelevant. But now, when asked to show his birth certificate, B. Hussein Obama has refused.

As Artie Johnson used to say: “Veeeeeedy intevestink.”

I fear for our future.

Let’s not sacrifice some Farm Club bench-depth just to win 2008 if it leaves the Party vulnerable in 2012. I dislike the idea of the current VPOTUS being a POTUS-in-training for the next election cycle; it puts hamstrings on the then-incumbent Administration to govern with the next election cycle in-mind…rather than immediate and long-term National Interests.

And to answer the second part – I honestly don’t know. I would lean towards the “stupid” assessment.

Speaking of Obama: Is he drug-addled, or just stupid in this video?

As an aside – I would bet a million dollars that the MSM would be trumpeting Bobby Jindal’s full name if his middle name was “Krishna” or something like that. But noooo, don’t try identifying Barack Hussein Obama with the name HE DELIBERATELY CHOSE TO BE HIS LEGAL NAME INSTEAD OF BARRY SOTERO.

I put that last line in all-caps for our resident seagulls, sort of like a public service announcement to the moonbat-impaired.

How did Dr. King put it again?

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.

Which is why, of course, the liberals who have usurped Dr. King’s mantle promptly demanded racial quotas that judge by skin color and are now insisting that any inquisition into the content of their chosen candidate’s character is “racist” because of his skin color.

You mean he looked like John McCain?

(Sorry, couldn’t resist.)

the remnants of [skin color's] political utility

Except, as you state, skin color has made Obama’s career. So it retains more than a few remnants of utility.

We had an election in California last Tuesday. I worked a precinct desk. A black voter came in, loudly ecstatic that “A year from now, we’ll have a President who looks like me.” In other words, skin color was, by his own account, his main reason for voting Obama. I carefully said nothing, but thought “Oh, well.”

It will be a great day indeed when race no longer plays a factor in how we evaluate an individual

Yes. Unfortunately, B.H. Obama is not getting us any closer. He is steeped in identity politics and constantly invokes concepts that are divisive, or actually racist. As only one, small example: He seriously believes that he is genetically destined to be America’s great racially-unifying President:

“That’s in my DNA, trying to promote mutual understanding… That’s who I am… That’s what this campaign has been about.”

Creepy, that he would think anyone is genetically destined for any mission in life. And unfortunate, because Obama will not, in the end, bring us together. Obama’s supporters are *already* laying the groundwork for an “Amerikkka is Racist!” narrative when he loses in November. They will steadfastly deny that Obama is simultaneously extreme, unqualified, corrupt, and dangerous due to his terrorist connections – making the People right to vote against him. Instead, they will plant a false narrative and fan the flames of racial division.

Bobby Jindal has the power of logic and conservative principle underlying his words. He doesn’t need to rely on his skin color for any reason. Therefore, he can openly scoff at the remnants of its political utility.
