“In politics, the clearer a statement is, the more certain it is to be followed by a ‘clarification.’ Obama and his supporters were still busy ‘clarifying’ Jeremiah Wright’s very plain statements when it suddenly became necessary to ‘clarify’ Senator Obama’s own statements in San Francisco. However inconsistent Obama’s words, his behavior has been remarkably consistent over the years. He has sought out and joined with the radical, anti-Western left, whether Jeremiah Wright, William Ayers of the terrorist Weatherman underground or pro-Palestinian and anti-Israeli Rashid Khalidi. Obama is also part of a long tradition on the left of being for the working class in the abstract, or as people potentially useful for the purposes of the left, but having disdain or contempt for them as human beings” — Thomas Sowell, a scholar at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, writing at RealClearPolitics.com.
