‘Let’s Face It, the Color of His Skin’

MSNBC’s Richard Wolffe explains why you hate Obama: “What is it about this President that has stripped away the veneer of respect that normally accompanies the office of the president?

Excuse my visceral reaction to this story: Cummings: Black community wants Obama to ‘fight harder’ Rep.
