A wordsmith? Hardly!

Tina Brown writes: "It's a strange paradox for a great wordsmith, but when Obama makes an important policy speech these days he leaves everyone confused."

Only guilt-ridden, diversity obsessed liberals who'd probably never listened to a really good black preacher thought Obama was a great wordsmith. So he gave one inspiring, crowd-weeping speech in 2004--and even then there were detractors (in his own party, probably PUMAs) who noted that speech had been around the block many times when he was drumming up votes for his Senate run.

Nuance? Sub-text? Really! How about this one. He's a marxist (aka progressive, socialist, communist). Do your homework, folks.

"He feels colonized by mistakes of the past. He feels trapped by the hand that has been dealt him." Tina Brown

Now there's clarity for you: "colonized by mistakes." Tina's not much of a wordsmith herself. And what president doesn't come into office with a hand already dealt?

Her first mistake was calling him a gifted communicator, her second was trying to understand someone who isn't.
