A CNN political analyst has called on President Obama to go “gangsta” against the Republicans. In a post dated Feb. 11, Roland S. Martin writes,
For me, I’m sick and tired of Democrats having power and being unwilling to use it. I’ve always respected Republicans when they had power because they were willing to use it and maybe apologize later.
Obama’s critics keep blasting him for Chicago-style politics. So, fine. Channel your inner Al Capone and go gangsta against your foes. Let ’em know that if they aren’t with you, they are against you, and will pay the price.
Here’s how urbandictionary.com defines “gangsta”:
A sociopathic member of the inner-city underclass, known primarily for being antisocial and uneducated. Also known for ready access to illegal drugs and weapons, and staggeringly poor marksmanship.
So, Roland wants the President of the United States to become an antisocial (at least with Republicans), uneducated (at least in the substance of GOP ideas), drug-addicted (beyond nicotine), gun-toting (the Secret Service count?) sociopath who can’t shoot straight. Now that is truly amazing!
Imagine what would happen if Pat Buchanan referred to Obama as a “gangsta” in one of his articles. How would that play out?
Think we’d hear from this guy?
