Obama turned out fine.īut the laughable irony of D'Souza's alleged message is that this a man who can safely be described as a poor decision-maker. No normal person believes that a parent somehow "knows something" about his or her child and decides, Nope! I want a refund! How would that even work? P.S. The commonsense realization that it was a never case of, gee, if we'd only been better babies, our parents would have stuck around. But I'd wager that most of the millions of Americans who have made it to adulthood in spite of absent or crappy parents have at some point reached a level of intellectual awareness that poor D'Souza ( and you're probably reading this) never has: the understanding that it's not a baby's fault if a parent bails. It's a hell of a thing for a child to grow up trying to make sense of, and there's a hurt that never goes away. Like Barack Obama and our last Democratic president, Bill Clinton, I, too, had a father who "dumped" me at birth, so yeah, the outrage here is personal. And just when you thought this election cycle couldn't possibly be more triggering - for survivors of sexual harassment and abuse, for women who've had late-term abortions, for the LGBT community, for African-Americans, for Muslims, for Mexicans, for the terminally ill. Then along comes garbage fire with a mouth Dinesh D' Souza to find a whole new population to shock.
