Something To Ponder. . .

An excerpt from an article written by Byron York at National Review about Barack Obama's years as a "community oragnizer":

No doubt Obama would agree that that is a bad thing, but when a real attempt to break through that culture of dysfunction — the landmark 1996 welfare-reform bill, now widely accepted as one of the most successful domestic-policy initiatives in a generation — came up, Obama vowed to use all the resources at his disposal to undo it. “I made sure our new welfare system didn’t punish people by kicking them off the rolls,” he said in 1999. Two years earlier, he had declared: “We want to make sure that there is health care, child care, job training, and transportation vouchers — everything that is needed to ensure that those who need it will have support.” Obama applied his considerable organizational skills to perpetuating the old, failed way of doing things.

That's change you can believe in. And as Kwame Fitzpatrick might exclaim, "Can't wait to get me some uh dat!"

From reading the whole article I get the dull pang of similarities between "community organizer", "race-baiter", and "rabble-rouser" a la buffoon and master demagogue Al Sharpton.

Man, if this is what hope feels like, somebody give me an enema.
