When the President-elect does something New York Times columnist David Brooks approves of he dares write: I can just see the unctuous Mr. Brooks basking on the porch of the manse while a liveried black servant brings him a mint julep.Obama had not gone native.

Aaaargh.
It isn't surprising - Reality is Brooks is as much a visitor of the dominant culture as the President: Brooks is Jewish family, Univ Chicago, National Review, the President is Hawaiian, Columbia, Harvard Law. However the New York Times and National Review mainstreamed Brooks into the dominant institutionalized rasicsm whilst the President will always be a black in his eyes.
aaaaargh! is quite correct!
