I’m a little confused. Let me see if I have this straight…

  • If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents, you’re “exotic, different.”
  • Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, a quintessential American story.

  • If your name is Barack you’re a radical, unpatriotic Muslim.
  • Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track you’re a Maverick.

  • Graduate from Harvard Law School and you are unstable.
  • Attend five different small colleges before graduating, you’re well grounded.

  • If
    you spend three years as a brilliant community organizer, become the
    first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter
    registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12 years as
    a Constitutional Law professor, spend 8 years as a State Senator
    representing a district with over 750,000 people, become chairman of
    the State Senate’s Health and Human Services committee, spend 4 years
    in the U.S. Senate representing a state of 13 million people while
    sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment
    and Public Works and Veteran’s Affairs committees, you don’t have any
    real leadership experience.
  • If your total resume is:
    local weather girl, 4 years on the city council and 6 years as the
    mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people, 20 months as the governor
    of a state with only 650,000 people, then you’re qualified to become
    the country’s second highest ranking executive.

  • If
    you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while raising two
    daughters, all within the Protestant churches, you’re not a real
    Christian.
  • If you cheated on your first wife with a rich
    heiress, and left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next
    month, you’re a Christian.

  • If you teach responsible,
    age appropriate sex education, including the proper use of birth
    control, you are eroding the fiber of society.
  • If, while
    governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no other option
    in sex education in your state’s school system while your unwed teen
    daughter ends up pregnant, you’re very responsible.

  • If
    your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position in a
    prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner city
    community, then gave that up to raise a family, your family’s values
    don’t represent America’s.
  • If you’re husband is
    nicknamed “First Dude”, with at least one DWI conviction and no college
    education, who didn’t register to vote until age 25 and once was a
    member of a group that advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA,
    your family is extremely admirable.

OK, much clearer now.
