but there’s a distinct difference between barack obama, who is black (and was raised by a slighly overweight unattractive single parent), telling black fathers they need to step up the plate and david cameron, the head of the british tory party (and possibly the next prime minister of the uk), who is white and was raised under well above average circumstances (with more than one but less than three parents), telling absent black fathers that they need to take care of their babies and their babie’s mama. or something like that. but cameron seems to have taken this issue to the african-caribbean churches in the uk and according to the guardian, they are in agreement with him. perhaps camron gets a pass because he generally doesn’t come across as racially insensitive and he can give a 50 minute speech without notes.
