SWEET DREAMS, BAD DREAMS


"...they will be judged not by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." --Martin Luther King

"Nature magically suits a man to his fortunes, by making them the fruit of his character." --Ralph Waldo Emerson

January 17, 2010. How endlessly fascinating it is that the laws of the universe are so unchanging, despite proud mankind's best efforts to bend them to our will.

Look at the rise of Barrick Obama, the Great Liberal Hope, whose entire career has been bolstered by the gauzy dream that elevating a black man would finally make us a color-blind society.

Indeed, his election as president, supported by a majority of white Americans, seemed to show that we had finally overcome our prejudices.

But did it?

Well, sort of, but not in the way Obama or his acolytes intended. We elected a black man alright, but mostly because he was black, because so many thrilled at the idea that we could show ourselves, and the world, that we had come so far in race relations.

How ironic then that his policies and behavior have become so despised by many of those who voted for him that now they can dislike him, not for the color of his skin, but for the content of his philosophy. His skin color is at last ignored. All we see is his ideology of grievance and entitlement, his cynical lip service to traditional American ideals.

Obama has given us permission to revile a black man. His skin color matters not one bit. We are seeing beyond that, to the man inside, and to what he believes.

How sad for Obama, who had become so used to being adored for his acceptable and charming veneer, now to be disliked for his character. In the end, he will be a wounded but heroic figure, the man who put the county through a hellish convulsion that was the balloon payment in the service of its racial debt.

That he must go down in the dust of a failed presidency to allow the unfolding of this noble end is the tragic stuff of Sophocles and Shakespeare.

History is littered with the follies of the ambitious, and how fitting it is that those who try to impose their will upon the world often get not what they want, but what they deserve.
