Well, they hosed her down, scraped her off and now she’s all sweetness and light. Makeovers may be good entertainment on the Opra show but not for imposters seeking to invade The White House at any cost. As I watched some of the Democrat garden party last night, I suppose it was good to see Ted Kennedy still vertical…but then the repackaged, reconstituted version of Barry’s bride showed up with her projector and home movies.
To me, Michelle Obama will always be that angry black racist who spoke about “White oppressors” in her thesis and only recently became proud of her country…even though she may think it’s a “downright mean” place. I’ve never been able to get into the what have you said to me lately mentality; I tend to believe that first gut level remarks are the honest ones, not those made after you’ve had time to clean them up and coat them over.
I once had an old car that rusted out badly. I really enjoyed driving her and the engine was still in pretty good shape, so I put more money than I probably should have into sandblasting and repainting. But you know what? As skilled as the body shop technicians were, the same old rust just kept coming through.
I’ll start thinking of the Obamas as folks just like me as soon as I live in a multi-million dollar house and begin reporting in excess of four million dollars income for a given year. At times, my friends are nearly as eccentric as I am but I don’t count unrepentant terrorists, racist preachers, underworld slumlords or convicted felons among them. I don’t know how you make all that go away, so I guess I’ll always have trouble thinking of Barry and Mish as people just like me.
Sorry Mrs. ‘O’ but I’ve always loved my country, think America is the greatest place God ever put on this earth and feel both comfortable and safe clinging to my bible and guns. That’s why our Founding Fathers wrote the first and second amendments and placed them right at the top of the list…you never know when they’ll come in handy.
