Watching Obama disown “Reverend” Wright yesterday afternoon, it occurred to me that during his much lauded and essentially empty and meaningless Philadelphia speech on race, the melifluous tones of Senator Barry O trumpeted “I can no more disown [Reverend Wright] than I can disown the Black Community. I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother.”
So I guess Barry O just disowned the black community–you know, the people that are voting for him in a monolithic block–and his own grandmother–you know, the woman who essentially raised him. Nice guy.
Being “disowned” by Barry O must come as a shock to the black community. After all, they are the foundation upon which the Barry O campaign sits and they have been faithful to his cause. His grandmother is probably a different story. After all, after the way Barry O chucked her under the bus and portrayed her as a “typical” racist white person during his last go-round with Reverend God Damn America, getting disowned by her petulant, ungrateful, whiny grandson is probably no real shock…and by the way, wouldn’t you like to be a fly on the wall at the Obama Family Thanksgiving this year when Racist Grandma makes her yearly visit to Hyde Park?
The Obama Campaign has devolved into an SNL skit. Specifically, a hilarious skit improbably starring Alec Baldwin as a candidate who is a shoo-in for the governorship of a state who then accidentally shoots Lassie, curses at a baby and wipes his butt with the American flag in a 24 hour period and ends up with zero percent of the vote, before suffering a nervous breakdown, declaring himself the governor of his daughter’s dolls and delivering papers for a living.
The only question now is whether he actually manages to fumble away North Carolina and Oregon and if he loses by double digits in Indiana. I have to thank the Democrat Party for providing the bread and circus that is keeping me so gloriously entertained this year.

I think Denver will be the real circus.
At this point I will probably stroke out from sensory overload while watching the Denver Convention. You will have union thugs and hippies/trustafarians mixing it up with Black Panthers and Nation of Islam types and all of them fighting with the Denver PD while Howard Dean has a nervous breakdown on national television. It will be the feel good event of the summer.
