Politics, Black presidents, and quote of the day

When you hear "the first Black American president", who do you think of? Bill Clinton? Barack Hussein Obama? I bet money you never thought of George W. Bush with that title, did you? Investor's Business Daily thinks Bush just might deserve that title (hat tip Steve T. Internet Radio Network:

... under Bush, the U.S. has boosted development and humanitarian aid to Africa from $1.4 billion in his first year in office to $4 billion a year today. He's also sought $30 billion to fight AIDS.

Trade — far more efficient than aid — between our country and Africa has more than doubled during his terms. This administration has also actively sought to stop the genocide in Darfur and has led in attempts to end wars in Sierra Leone, Sudan and Congo.

As the U.S. press swoons over Barack Obama and his bromidic promise of "change" to the exclusion of almost all else, the African media have noticed Bush's work.

It wasn't the New York Times or ABC, but AllAfrica.com that gratefully acknowledged that Bush's policies "have saved millions of (African) lives and lifted many others from abject poverty." (more)

You won't hear that from the MSM in the US.

Quote about Hillary Clinton: "She could serve as the U.S. Senator from New York for the next 20 years if she plays it right ... Not, of course, that I want to see this happen. But it is the dark alternative to the wishful scenario where she melts as the bucket of water hits her." --Lisa Schiffren at The Corner

Ron Paul's "creepyness" may be his undoing.

Obama supporters can't name anything he's actually done, video here.
