"I Love You, Barack Obama!"
Stevie Wonder is one of the biggest bigots in the wold!
He was on American Idol the other night doing a medley of his hits, which are numerous, when he started singing some song about love, peace, hope or other such malarkey. I didn't recognize it as one of his "hits." In the middle of the song, he suddenly blurted out, "I love you, Barack Obama!"
Now, why would he do such a thing? (Did someone tell him the President was in the audience? How would he have known any different?) I've never seen him on t.v. lots of times and he's never acted this way before?
I imagine he voted for him and is excited about him and by him. Still, why is he so excited and why did he vote for him?
Apparently, he, like so many Americans, is thrilled to have a black president. The problem is, how does Stevie know that Bary is black? Sheesh! How does Stevie even know that he is black? Someone must have told him.
For all Stevie knows, both he and Barry are white, Asian, Greek or whatever else. Stevie has been blind since birth and doesn't even know what black is.
In my never to be humble opinion, this is simple prejudice. Here's a man to whom color of skin should be totally meaningless. Yet, he voted for and is excited by a guy that someone told him is black. How could Stevie even know that he's not being lied to?
Other than just the fact that the entire affair was completely silly, it was a testimony to the trifling nature of the Hollywood elite and all other such liberal ignoramuses. They see themselves as so hip and current and just too cool for school and their prejudice and bigotry is painfully evident to everyone in the real world, but, not surprisingly, not to themselves.
I can't imagine a singer shouting out right in the middle of a musical number, "I love you, George Bush!" No doubt, he would've been the butt of a hundred jokes and skits on late night television. Nope, no hypocrisy there.
