Religious Racism

Rich Lowry posts about the credo at Barak Obama’s church.

In an interview late Monday, Obama said it was important to understand the document as a whole rather than highlight individual tenets. “Commitment to God, black community, commitment to the black family, the black work ethic, self-discipline and self-respect,” he said. “Those are values that the conservative movement in particular has suggested are necessary for black advancement.

So the wunderkind flavor-of-the-month leftie is an authority on “conservative” values, is he?

Once you start talking about a “black work ethic” or “black community” or “black” anything, you’ve entered racist territory. The easy test is to replace “black” with “white” and see how it reads. (Ditto with “man” for “woman” in feminist screeds.)

That whirring sound is MLK in his grave.
