Race Card

Isn’t it lucky for the Clintons, that Obama made a personal decision not to play the race card? Seriously, I think this is the most legitimate play of that card that I’ve seen, in a long time. Yes, I know about Michael Richards, Don Imus, and Dog the Bounty Hunter, all of whom lost work, and possibly their careers, despite apologies, and despite payouts. But Al Sharpton isn’t crying foul, and neither is anybody else. I don’t suppose there’s any money to be made. I do understand and respect why Obama’s not doing it. I just don’t happen to agree that being associated with the Clintons is license to act this way. I think that it’s very hypocritical of Hillary’s campaign. Imagine that.
