Frankly, Barack Obama is a standard issue leftist that you would expect of somebody with his particular experience, and he doesn't exactly hide it.

People have been warning us that language was going to the dogs ever since Latin started turning into French. Yet the dogs in question never seem to emerge yelping on the horizon.

I don't think that we really know a whole lot about Barack Obama at all that you would really call distinctive.

Obama is seen as very, very cool. I think a lot of people find him sexy.

If you took away the color of Barack Obama's skin, nobody right now would be paying him any attention.

Ebonics - or black English, as I prefer to call it - is one of a great many dialects of English. And so English comes in a great many varieties, and black English is one of them.

English, however, is kinky. It has a predilection for dressing up like Welsh on lonely nights.
