BHO does seem to have a thinner skin than most Presidents. Possibly because he has never been vetted via a tough campaign. He walked into the Senate seat after his opponent was exposed for going to swinger clubs. And the national press treated him with kid gloves for his POTUS race because of his race.
Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
Obama has called out Hannity, Limbaugh, Beck, Fox News specifically while Bush was bashed by 95% of the media and didn't whine endlessly about it like the Obama. Obama was so celebrated when he was elected, that it must have been a huge shock to his fragile ego when individuals like Rush were able to get so far under his skin that he had to mention them by name repeatedly. That's not very presidential when the most powerful position in the world can be tormented by radio talk show hosts. It also goes to our weakened postiont in the world...it seems like the enemies of the US are starting to laugh and take advantage of our weak leader at every opportunity.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
Rush Limbaugh Compares Obama To Biracial Oreo Cookie
August 18, 2011
Right wing talk show host, Rush Limbaugh, compared Obama to a new Oreo cookie and called the cookie a “Obameo” on his show.
Many consider the term “Oreo” a racial slur, including Limbaugh himself, who claimed that the Michael Steele had had Oreos thrown at him at an event, insinuating that he was “Black on the outside, white on the inside.” Oreos can also be seen as a derogatory term for biracials.
