...why spoil an inaccurate
heart warming story with silly little facts, especially when your audience is accustomed to propaganda cluttered with 'logical fallacies.'
(And most importantly, when you are
trying to keep smoldering racial embers burning).
"And graduates, it’s the story that I witness every single day when I
wake up in a house that was built by slaves, and I watch my daughters,
two beautiful black young women head off to school waving goodbye to
their father, the president of the United States, the son of a man from
Kenya who came here to America for the same reasons as many of you: to
get an education and improve his prospects in life," she remarked.
Somewhere in the back of my mind, I recall hearing someone say, "YOU DIDN'T BUILD THAT." Oh, that's right, it was your husband, when he was pontificating to hard working Americans, criticizing the fruits of their labor, and insinuating--somehow, it was 'The Village,' The Government, which made a person's wealth possible.
So NO, Mrs. Obama, you are not waking up in a house that was BUILT BY SLAVES, unless of course, you include the WHITE laborers and artisans from Maryland and Virginia, as well as immigrants of ALL Color and race, from places including Ireland, Scotland, and OTHER European nations.
You, your husband, daughters, and least we forget yourmooching Nanny granny mother, brought along on the gravy train express, have been waking up in that same residence at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue for nearly eight years.
Conscience just now beginning to rattle your awareness to reality? As pointed out by a reader in a comment section at another website (rude, yes....but to the point): "If you woke up on day one, and felt embarrassed by living in the lap of luxury, (at the expense and sacrifices of 'slaves') why didn't you pack up your sh*t and get out?"
