Obama to Hillary Supporters: Get Over It!

You gotta admit, Obama has class. For a snob that is. Or maybe he has created a whole new class of snobs. And he is definitely at the head of the class. At a recent meeting with the Congressional Black Caucus things didn’t go as peachy for Obama as he would would have liked them. In fact he seemed to rile up a few members with his admonition that Hillary supporters should just get over their feelings and come over to the dark side (no pun intended) and support him.
Sparks Fly at Black Caucus Meeting
Sources at the meeting said that Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, a Clinton supporter, expressed the desire that Obama and his campaign would reach out the millions of women still aggrieved about what happened in the campaign and still disappointed that Clinton lost.

According to Rep. Yvette Clarke, D-N.Y., Obama then said, “However, I need to make a decision in the next few months as to how I manage that since I’m running against John McCain, which takes a lot of time. If women take a moment to realize that on every issue important to women, John McCain is not in their corner, that would help them get over it.”
Isn’t that sweet? He is a regular ball of joy and conciliation. I guess no one ever told him that the first step in reaching out to someone is to actually extend your arms (Figuratively speaking of course. Because I sure don’t want that dude trying to touch me). Apparently they don’t teach that stuff at Harvard. Or at the College of Community Organizers. Or at the Chicago School of Thugs.
And then poor little Barky revealed that him’s feelings had been hurt by the Clintons and that maybe he should be the one asking for an apology. A reaching out. Boo Hoo Hoo… Lil Barky needs a hug. Him does. Yes him does. Anyone seen his blankie? His binkie?
Obama then said two sources at the meeting said that he’d held his tongue many times during the campaign against Clinton in the interest of party unity and sensitivity. Clinton and her allies had suggested he was a Muslim, had said he wasn’t qualified to be president.

According to the sources, Obama suggested he bit his tongue every time. He could be asking for an apology, he could be asking for the Clintons to reconcile with him, but he chose to rise above it.
Yes Barky, just when is it that you bit your tongue? Was it when your guy Jesse Jackson Jr. told the world that Hillary didn’t cry for Katrina and that the black folks were going to have a say in this election and set Hillary straight? Did your tongue swell then?
Or were you biting your tongue when Donna I’m uncommitted but I need to be committed Brazile twisted Bill Clinton’s fairy tale words all around. Maybe you were biting it when Hillary gave everyone a civics and history lesson about LBJ and the Civil Rights Act? Were ya holding back then too? Does it still hurt? Maybe that’s why you stammer and stutter so much. It’s all our fault. And those mean old Clintons.
Poor Lil Precious is so torn up inside. Him got him’s feelings hurt and him can’t just get over it himself. So he wants the rest of us to get over it. Somehow I just don’t think that is going to happen anytime soon.
18 million Hillary supporters reach out and ask for reconciliation. And Obama lectures us on how hurt he is. Poor lil misunderstood Barky.
Here’s what I think.
Even more now than ever.
