Obama by Obama
March 29, 2008
Hugh Hewitt broadcast pieces of Obama’s book read by Obama. This is the possible future President talking about High School sports, white boys, N word, getting high, drinking, while peppered with f bombs.
My comments: This book on his life up to his going to Harvard Law.
This is an interesting real /honest assessment of his young life. One thing you have to give him is that he lays it out. Although it is kind of like someone who feels that telling the truth means giving you every single detail without an ability to edit oneself.
His judgement is again called into mind as he goes into details about his indescressions. Things that perhaps most young men experience to one degree or another, but do not neccesarily publisize, and I wonder for what reason? I have only heard this recording so I am not sure if there is a point or resolution to this. But as a Christian and certaily as a political aspiree, his judgement is begged to be questioned in making public something unbecoming of a possible leader. Especially a possible leader of the free world.
Comments from call ins to the show:
“defining the culture down”
“asamed of being a mixed race”
“as a follower of Christ he would not say this”
“honesty is conforting…still won’t vote for him”
“brings him down to being one of the guys…..I do not want my commander in Chief to be one of the guys…I want to say Sir and mean it”…(you will recall the Military turned away from Bill Clinton and would not salute him.)
