Oboredom

Here's Uncle Chuckles falling asleep during an Obama speech.  But it's not just poor old Joe, who might fall asleep during one of his own speeches.  It's anybody, really.  Thing is, the most exciting thing about Obama is his speechmaking, and, frankly, his speechmaking is actually rather boring. It only seems interesting because the rest of Obama is even more boring. And because the talking heads keep telling us what a great speaker he is. Probably the most interesting thing he ever did was mess around with drugs, and that wasn't very rare in his cohort.  As near as I can tell, he's never said, written, or thought anything that anybody could honestly regard as "interesting."  Now, nobody has any problem recognizing the fact that Bush II was pretty boring, and as far as speechmaking goes, so was his dad.  But the Bushes are White, and therefore not immune from criticism.  But, as you know, Obama always gets an extra fifty Affirmative Action points for being Black (Well, Black-ish), so what would be an excruciatingly boring speech from Romney or Ryan attains William Jennings Bryan level when issuing from the mouth of the Fresh Prince of Bill Ayers.

There are fascinating facts about Bill Clinton that we don't know about yet, I'm sure, and probably likewise about the Bushes, Reagan, and even ol' Jimmy Carter.  But the thing about Obama is that there's less to him than meets the eye.

And now, appropriately enough, an excruciatingly boring biography of Obama is available.  Steve Sailer reviews it HERE with Menkenesque snarkiness.  And you will find it worthwhile, after you read it, to go to Steve's own site HERE and read the comments section.
