Flash! Post racial “healer” has little effect on race relations in US.
Or, to be more accurate, little effect on the expectation that race realtions will improve. But how can that be! It might have something to do with his handling of L'affair Gates/Crowley, but the beer summit was supposd to have swept that under the rug. Perhaps it is rooted in the chorus of RAAAAAAAACIST!  accusations gratuitously coming from the usual race peddlers and directed at any who oppose his legislative agenda is a factor; or maybe General Holder calling us a nation of cowards for not incessantly engaging in conversations about it-even though we are supposed to be a "color blind" society. Who knows, but it's safe to say that just like many of the other expectations surrounding Obama's election, are just not panning out. Seems to me to be a harbinger of increasing buyers remorse...
I'll bet the sea levels won't recede either!

Someone I was reading today made the point that when O and others said that his would be a “post-racial” administration, what they really meant was that their assumptions, their understanding of race relations and racism in America would be the FINAL WORD.
It follows, then, that theirs would be the “settled science” of race.

Great point Cowboy. The only thing post-racial about this buch is they don’t have to worry about the race peddlers coming out of the gutter and declaring every move the President makes to be motivated by RAAAAACISM!
