In fairness to liberals it's only a subset of them, Blacks who are gripped by cult like worship of Obama. I've witnessed it first hand and it's creepy. I now know better how those people followed Jim Jones into the jungle.
It explains why Stacey Dash and other black conservatives were so viciously attacked for not supporting him. cults attack and shun those that try to leave it.
What's always interesting to me about it is that Pres. Obama, strictly in terms of DNA would have little in common with most US blacks. His African ancestry comes from Kenya, in East Africa, which is a world apart from West Africa where most US blacks would trace their ancestry. In fact there might be more commonality based on the fact that Obama's mother was white, and most US blacks also have some degree of white linage. Now there's some irony for you.
Interesting commentary on the idea that "race" is really just an imaginary construct.
I've been saying that from the beginning.....One side of his family owned slaves and the other never picked a piece of cotton or rode in the back of a bus.......
And yet, since he "looks" like us, that works for him.
Ummmm, no, liberals haven't gone insane but may Jamie Foxx has! I don't know ANY liberal who feels that way about Obama no matter how much they like him. People sure do love to exaggrate everything.

And his white mother (living in Indonesia), then white grandparents raised him. He did not live the "REAL" black experience.
