To celebrate Black History Month, President Barack Obama has launched his "African Americans for Barack Obama" campaign, urging blacks to volunteer and help out his campaign. Particularly irksome is his plea to have African Americans pressure their local churches to support his campaign, especially given that advocacy of a particular candidate or party is a violation of the tax exempt status of churches. As with most Statists, President Obama doesn't see individuals, he sees groups and voting blocs. I wonder what would happen if Mitt Romney announced his "Whites for Romney" initiative?
There is nothing more damaging to this country than the movement towards groups over individuals. Statists believe that the group has rights, not the individual. That's why it makes sense to President Obama and his administration that women as a group somehow have a right to be provided free "day after" abortion pills while the individual who's religious freedom is imposed upon must be forced to provide the very product that violates their conscience.
But then, I have to say, when it comes to actions taken by President Obama, if its color he sees, color me unsurprised.
