Obama Loving and Bashing!

So, as Barack Obama is moving front and center in what passes for “Political Discourse” these days, I am reminded of what was a very “cute” and subversive song back in the day.

Peter Paul and Mary’s Big Blue Frog!

I can’t help but think of this as I listen to the discourse, and the apologies, from the MSM, surrounding his possible run for the Oval Office.

Maybe it says more about me than the rest of the electorate, but I don’t think so.

Oh, yeah, and he smokes. So, if folks out there are so inclined, they can reject his candidacy, not on account of race, heaven no, but because he smokes.

I am so sure that the folks out there providing the electorate with “information” will dig out and find so many more reasons to vote “against” him that even the KKK will be comforted that race has nothing to do with their decision. Just like misogyny has nothing to do with a vote against Hillary!

Because you know folks, we are so passed “blatant” racism and sexism. The electorate who voted for George W. Bush is a very sophisticated and informed body and not at all doing their selecting based on base decision making. Because, as we all know, anti-intellectualism and macho-ism had nothing to do with their vote. That’s right, those folks have standards.

Just so you know, that is!

Our hypocrisy when it comes to race and gender is only beaten out by our hypocrisy when it comes to sexual orientation.

Let the Deconstruction Begin! Too bad this much effort wasn’t put into the Deconstruction of the Candidates in 2000 and 2004!
