"Meanwhile, no significant conservative politicians or pundits have said that they object to Obama's agenda because he's black. Rather, they've said they oppose his agenda for precisely the same reasons they oppose Nancy Pelosi's and Harry Reid's and Barney Frank's agendas. They stand athwart Obama yelling 'Stop!' just as they did with Clinton and Democratic presidents before him.
"Magically, the alchemic powers of Obama's black skin transmogrify the same arguments and the same rhetoric into racism. Saying “you're wrong” to a white politician is a disagreement; saying it to a black politician is like shouting through Bull Connor's megaphone."
