WTF?

Yeah, yeah...
Fox News and other conservative social commentators were quick to jump on the (imagined) story of an NAACP official being racist.
What else is new?

As bad as white apologists are when they go out of their way to prove how 'fair' they are by being too lenient when it comes to unjust issues involving race - Obama's reaction to this recent story is even worse.
Obama was supposed to have been different.
Obama's perspective was supposed to have more balanced.
Obama was supposed to understand that most issues concerning race were more often more complex than just Black and white.
Obama was supposed to base his decisions on a measured account of the facts and their context - not just to respond in a knee jerk manner as not to appear to favor Blacks.

Was a post-racial America too much to ask with the election of Obama?
Probably so.
But the hope was for a diverse Obama administration to treat every instance from the perspective of well rounded individuals - not from the perspective of "white=good", "Black=bad".
(Or the even more harmful overreaction of being unjust in the hopes of appearing just.)
