Can you imagine if there was one extra scene at the end of Cinderella? Imagine how you would feel if Cinderella had revealed at the end of the story that she had intimate relations with the prince at the ball that evening and then developed significant pelvic pain with vaginal discharge requiring gynecological intervention. Nobody wants a fairy tale that ends like that. It ruins the whole story. This is precisely what many of us are struggling with right now regarding Barack Obama’s presidency. His election was a fairy tale. I did not vote for him because of his politics, but I was filled with pride in our country that we voted to put his family into our White House, knowing the history that this house was built by slaves. That is a powerful story. This was a message to people around the world that anything is possible and that racism is something that can be overcome. But after the NSA spying scandal, the IRS abuse scandal, the lies associated with Benghazi, and the failure of Obamacare, it is time to face the ugly truth about this fairy tale… Cinderella has chlamydia.
