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.

This is nuts!

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.

Jamie Foxx: 'Our Lord and Savior Barack Obama' | NewsBusters.org
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.
