But he's white, Jesse!

Jesse Taylor of Pandagon writes:
Could it be any more obvious that McCain would have leapt on any conflict anywhere in the world to play make-believe George W. Bush circa September 2001? Shadow ambassadors, asinine and utterly contradictory assertions - John McCain is so hungry to appear presidential that he’s willing to give himself a blank slate on which to project his vision of foreign policy, reality and history be damned.

One might almost call it...presumptuous. If one were into using words to describe things.

Sadly, Jesse forgets that when you get where you are based on who your parents are, that's fair, but when you get where you are based on your own merits, that's affirmative action.

Is this true?

I've never heard this before:
Obama didn’t even tell Harvard Law School that he was black on his application.
Maybe it was in his book? It seems very Obama-esque.
