Is this affirmative action at work? Bad day for minorities that actually earn their way.

I hear that he has also just been named the NFL MVP for the 2010 season, awarded the gold medal in the giant slalom in the upcoming Vancouver Olympic games, given a Pulitzer in 2020 for his memoirs, won the French Open in 2010 (he’s very good on clay), and is the first individual to have won Lord Stanley’s Cup by himself (which hereafter will be renamed the Lord Obama’s Goblet). There has, of course, been a waiver as to actual participation in any of these events granted to Obama because of his special meaning to the entire world. <br /><br />Indeed, as Aristotle put it in The Politics, ‘if there is one person…so pre-eminently superior in goodness that there can be no comparison between the goodness and political capacity which he shows…and what is shown by the rest, such a person…can longer be treated as part of the state…There can be no law which runs against men who are utterly superior to others…The only alternative left…is for all others to pay a willing obedience to the man of outstanding goodness. Such men will accordingly be the permanent kings in their states.’ Oh, yes, I forgot to mention that the US Congress and the Supreme Court have willingly abdicated their positions to King Obama.halifaxnoreply@blogger.com
