Obama Missed Apartheid, Colonization, And The Abortion Debate

He mentioned the Crusades, the Inquisition, he mentioned slavery and Jim Crow. And he is right. But he should also have mentioned apartheid, and colonization before that.

“The president’s comments this morning at the prayer breakfast are the most offensive I’ve ever heard a president make in my lifetime.”
--- former Virginia governor Jim Gilmore (R).
