Obama is dirty. Always has been. Always will be. The media has gone out of its way to avoid catching a whiff of the foul breeze that blows whenever he steps into a room. Sooner or later, the veneer will be hacked off with a sledgehammer — but I wouldn’t count on that happening until Obama has outlived whatever usefulness he serves for the Powers That Be, i.e. when the populace gets so frustrated, hungry and homeless that they refuse to cling to his *hope and change* pablum.
But it is very amusing to watch the media scurry and run to protect Obama. We are expected to believe that he is the only *clean* and decent pol to ever emerge from the festering swamp of Chiacgo politics. LOL. The only thing dirtier than the Chicago political machine is a sewage treatment plant in rural Shanghai.
