Barack Obama

Apparently I'm supposed to write about him. Actually, I'm supposed to have writtten about him numerous times in the past month.

Well, there you go. "Barack Obama."

Done. Check.

Glad that's over with. Quite frankly, there's something about him that scares the crap out of me.*

* Of course, it should be noted that Manly Keyboard Bravewarrior Tbogg is not afraid at all of Barack Obama. He, unlike me, is not afraid of any brown people.

Then again, like most liberals, he doesn't actually know any, either. It's easy to not be afraid of brown people when the only brown person you've ever seen is Cliff Huxtable. Cliff Huxtable isn't threatening, unless you're threatened by puckish sarcasm and constant nagging to go to a good college.

Now, in my case, I know several brown people. One used to work in Accounts Reconcilliation where I used to work, and she was terrifying.

And she was only a Light Brown Person. An Indian or something. A technical-support Indian, not a, you know, a blackjack Indian. From one of those savage lands where they wear brightly colored gowns and worship monsoon spirits and eat white people like they're Raisinettes or, God help me, Goobers.
