I agree about middle-aged white men hardly qualifying as an oppressed minority, but the super-conservative ones feel like they're being singled out and picked on. That is the same arguing point used by American Christians. True or not, either they feel that way or it's a convenient excuse for attacking others. Within that context the Obama comment makes him an oppressed minority on both sides, which may not be true but is funny.

No scorn here, just befuddled amusement.
