Blood sport

Okay, here's the deal, Barak, we get it. We understand that you're not a Muslim. We understand that you are a Christian. We get that you aren't a fifth-columnist for al-Qaeda. We get it.

Stop with the indignation every time someone mentions that your grandmother IS a Muslim. Mr. Obama, you were all about talking up your relationship with Daddy in Dreams from my Father, but any mention of so much as a prayer rug in your presence now and you've got half your campaign staff on the wires crying "foul!"

If you can't take a compliment from a fellow Democratic senator during the primaries without whining that it's undermining your campaign, you have no shot of winning this contest. Go home now. Or get a thicker skin. Or both. Politics is vicious. We all like to say that we don't like it, but then we turn on the TV to see which husband is being cuckholded on Cheaters and we forget that we aren't out for blood.
