In reply to the discussion: Cornel West: 'Obama is a War Criminal' for Drone Strikes [View all]catbyte
(34,336 posts)3. I am sorry, but Cornell West has grown extremely tiresome.
It's like he's blaming Obama for not focusing solely on Civil Rights or something. Obama was elected President, not Civil Rights Leader in Chief. Sheesh. If Obama had focused on that, not only would other urgent issues be neglected, but we'd be stuck with a White president for years. He has unreal expectations, irrespective of legitimate criticisms over drone policies.

Cornel is nothing but a hater who is still sore from not being invited to the WH.
