Liberal Rapture

keep at it

When will association with and support for Obama become an embarrassment?

It will eventually.

I heard 2 rumours today about pumas at the receiving end of some vague threats. Who knows what they really were. The Pods are certainly capable of it. I know from the few Pods that come around here that the talking points are clearly uniform and "approved" by someone. They also probe for weakness, test things out, retreat and try again. They are like the veloceraptors trying to get into the kitchen in Jurassic Park.

What is fascinating to me is the possible motivation. I no longer think it is commitment to a candidate, per say. It is not an effort to convince us to support this man - it is an attempt to make us feel the way they feel about him. This is a need I believe they have. It is an ego protection mechanism. There is rarely talk about issues, or healthy or unhealthy arguments. The subtext is always "you just don't understand. I am trying to make you understand."

Kool-Aid has specific properties. Unless everyone drinks it at once the affect is muted over time. Many of us never drank it. The fact is by not drinking the Kool Aid early on - we do understand. All to well.

The Pod world view is black and white: Obama is all good. Those who do not believe this are bad. And like all cults the non believers are suspect and must either be converted or destroyed. This activity is amoral. Whatever works is the correct action to take.

This is not to say that those polling in support of Obama are all kool aid drunk. They clearly are not. But I bet they do not know about the "devotion" of the hard core group. They do not know about the bizarre lengths the Pods have gone to in trying to silence dissent. They do not know that the difference between the Obama campaign and a personality cult is one of degree, not kind. I, for one, encourage the nuttiest to become more present.

There is a psychosis about Obama that is spreading - this much is clear from the public derangement of Olbermann to the kids changing ther middle names to Hussein. Kids, tell your parents. Get tattoos. Make yourself known. Make your lunacy apparent. Let us see it.

The good news is personality cults fail. Always. I can't make a judgement about when and how the Obama cult will fail, or how much damage will be done along the way - I can merely state that it will fail. In the mean time, we all must stay on the offensive. Demand accountability from Obama on everything. Demand accountability from Michelle. Demand an accounting of Obama's accomplishments from Pods. (this is like throwing a light on in a room full of roaches) Don't take platitudes for answers. Don't let them change the subject. If you ask a question about Obama, don't accept an answer about McCain.

Don't let them lie.

Use humor.

Just keep at it.

I say all this not because I want Obama to lose - though, I do, I say it for the same reasons as always, BHO's most fervent supporters are a mob, Obama was created and is funded by a dark cabal we know almost nothing about, and Obama has no business being President of the United States.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PUMAS!

Happy Birthday PUMAS!!!!

Here are 3 songs for the occasion:

This is sent out to Howard Dean and Donna Brazille:

And this one is because we are getting stronger not weaker. Why? Because we are not children. We are not easily fooled. It was our party - it is still our country. Pumas are not the dead enders - Pumas are the vanguard. Stay focused, stay strong.

Stop Obama Now.

Repeating an earlier call:

Barrack and Michelle Obama should - indeed, must - apologize to Bill and Hillary Clinton for the dishonest, bigoted, and sexist campaign they ran during the primaries.

The election between Fear and Fingers Crossed.

In a backassward way I am grateful for BHO. I would rather be spending my blog time defending Hillary from the cannon fire of the Right. But it did not work out that way.

Nevertheless, Obama is an interesting character. No, that's wrong - he's an interesting idea for a character.

There have been plenty of American Presidents that were were duds -Carter, Harding, Bucannon, Andrew Johnson. Plenty that have been serviceable, McKinley, Cleveland, Coolidge, and yes, Hoover. More than our fair share of greats - Lincoln, Washington, Jefferson, FDR, Teddy Roosevelt and the oddly unsung Polk - who, in one term seized half of Mexico. For better or worse he made a hell of a difference.

We have also had a remarkable number that may not have been great Presidents - but had greatness in them. Either bad historical timing, and/or debilitating character defects overrode the potential for great administrations.

Eisenhower was a great man. He was a good President. Republicans would do well to revisit and rehabilitate him about now. JFK became one of our "greats" after being murdered. Still there was greatness in him while he lived. I would even argue that Nixon and Clinton had greatness in them - obscured and hampered by large personal flaws - though Nixon's were clearly more criminal in expression.

(The comparisons between JFK and Obama are false are wrongheaded. Even in his 30's and 40's JFK spoke with history at his back and a sense of his own ballast as a man. Obama's greatest speeches seem intent on obscuring his history and are temporal. They exist specifically to exact a change in one moment only. The "race" speech was an attempt to blot out 20 years of his life, not lead us any place new.)

There does not seem to be anything great about Obama. It appears more and more that there is no there, there. The argument that "he will surround himself with great people" is no good either. He hasn't yet. He does the opposite - he attaches himself and detaches himself from people like a mosquito - just long enough to suck some blood and move on. Besides the idea that Lincoln or FDR were great because of who they chose to work for them is silly. Great leaders instinctively choose great subordinates. So far Obama's people are yes men and hatchet men - and women. Obama is, more than anything, a creation. He's an idea of what a post modern, post racial, 500 channel entertainment-industrial complex, post baby boomer President should be. This is why the media loves him. McCain is the opposite on all counts. He looks like a one term fill in President, circa 1880, who will spend his evenings as President sauntering down Pennsylvania Avenue to a local bar so he can throw darts with Jack Murtha. So far McCain is running a very good Senate campaign.

This year is interesting, I'll give you that. This will not be an election between hope and fear. Obama does not inspire hope - I don't care how many "Warhol Obama Hope" bumper stickers there are out there. With the convinced his inspires delusions and with the not yet convinced he inspires wariness - soon to be weariness.

This will be an election between Fear and Fingers Crossed.

Could 99% of what has been written on this blog about Obama be wrong? Sure. Could there be a great President in the making with Obama? I suppose. But all the sound and fury continues to signify nothing. Which seems to be the way Obama likes it.

What's crackin, Dog?

She asked the candidate whether he would reach out to former President Bill Clinton. Obama reacted positively - sort of. "I'm cool with that," he reportedly told her. She found that outrageous. "'Cool with that?' Are you kidding me?"

One of the best things about being against Obama now is knowing one is ahead of the curve. Obama's fall is going to be epic when it happens. And it will happen. It is probably good that the RNC has much more money than McCain - McCain may not be up to bringing on an Obama crash as it often appears his daily list of things to do starts with "remember to breath".

Regardless, the RNC will get things rolling.

This person Obama is "cool with" reaching out to the only 2 term Democratic President in 50 years. Gee, don't put yourself out, Barry.

Get Over It

Get Over It.

OK - done.

Obama won fair and square. Really? Are we playing hopscotch?

Hillary lost. Yep, she did...although she got more votes...and more Democrats voted for her.

So, we're over it. Obama "won". Hillary "lost".

Getting over it doesn't mean we're voting for Obama. Because we're not.

What's a pod person to do? Tell us to get over it and bash McCain. Then tell us that we're cutting of our nose to spite our face if we won't vote for Obama. Or how about the ever popular, "Obama's policies are the same as Hillary's!" Really, then why didn't you vote for her? Why did you trash her and her husband?

The pod people cannot defend Obama on his policies because Obama's policies are a mystery. How do you know they're the same as Senator Clinton's since they're ever changing? Now that she's out of the race he may co-op many of her policies as his own because that's how he rolls, but why would I vote for a pale echo of the real thing?

So, I won't. Therefore I'm a racist.

obama is a dirty, dirty boy

check out this site.

PS - I know since I used the word "boy" I am a racist - even though I clearly am referring to immaturity but no matter.... also I say dirty which contains "dirt" and dirt is dark and Obama is bi-racial (or black - depending on the audience) so I am a disgusting racist (or racialist - depending on the audience). and since I am writing this "paragraph" mocking those who have castrated the word racist by using it in the same manner that McCarthy used "commie!" and therefore have made the word useless - or impotent - to finish off the image - I am most certainly a racist. Since everyone who dares have an independent thought about Obama is called a "racist" - maybe the word "racist" now really means "Free Thinker" in which case I hope I am a racist.

Hey, since "I barely know the guy" really means "I worked for him for 8 years" and "This is not the _(insert any person Obama is using at the moment here) I know" means "after I suck all I can out of you, I dump your carcass by the side of the road" Who the hell knows what anything means any more - and isn't that the point?

Pointlessly, I'll end with: Yes, We Can! (which, FYI, means "Keep it Simple! Those rich white college kids are addle brained. They are like a bunch of trained seals barking for sardines. Just make sure they don't change the channel before November." )

Happy weekend!

stop watching "news"

One of the few blessings of the corrupt campaign season that Dean, Pelosi, MSNBC, and Brazille shoved down our throats - is this: I have cut out my cable news viewing. Entirely.

I highly recommend this. I noticed last November that the cable news outlets were incapable of reporting on the Clintons in a fair manner. I'd forgotten how screwy they were about them. It is a pathology. Then it became clear that none of the media outlets could control their adoration of Obama. And they had no intention of controlling it. There was to be no reporting on the campaign, just molding of stories to suit the narrative of "Obama is wonderful and Hillary is a bitch." I realized I was not being informed, I was being told:

A. How to think

and be more than that

B. HOW IT WAS GOING TO BE - whether I liked it or not.

Keith "I want my goddamn catsup packets now!" Olbermann went berserk - and began licking Obama ass at every turn. The man would seem to be deranged.I am not kidding. I'd say he needs meds something fierce.

Chris Mathews has always been embarrassing to watch. I gave up on Anderson Cooper many moons ago - (THAT guy replaced Aaron Brown!?) And I might enjoy watching Wolf Blitzer - if he existed.
Cafferty is a gassy woman hating bigot.

I did the same thing with Lefty blogs - I am convinced that Americablog and the Cheetos Blog were paid handsomely for turning so brutally on Hillary. And I am willing to be slanderous about it until someone proves me wrong.

Huffington is a smug, pathetic whine fest. I was screamed at so severely for defending Clinton I gave up after a few weeks. Those blogs were out of control with the Hillary bashing early on. And MEAN. Wow. I work in the movie business, I know MEAN. The pro Obama regulars on those blogs are the nastiest bunch around.

With the added benefit of being batshit loco.

Then I noticed something wonderful when I left cable news and those blogs behind.

I was calm.

CNN and MSNBC are not it the business of information - to a degree they are in the business of getting people agitated. I'll bust myself and say I got off on the "can you believe they did (fill in blank) ???!!!" - Nothing like a daily dose of incredulous anger to make one feel alive.

These shows are drugs that induce learned helplessness.

I suggest 2 simple empowering responses:

1. Turn them off. Read a book, watch Merkat Manor, stroll around the block.

2. Pick one product that you use that sponsors the worst offender (Olbermann is the worst to me) and stop buying it. Subway sandwich shops sponsors Countdown. I went probably once a week - I stopped. It may seem silly. But you'd be amazed at how good it feels to take some control back from these thugs.

As for information. I select very specific news outlets online. I recommend the BBC, Real Clear Politics, and the Christan Science Monitor. Then I read blogs I know I am in tune with. That in combination with glancing at news racks as I walk by to get headlines and I would say I am BETTER informed than I was when I had cable news on 3 hours a day. I obtain actual information about what is going on in the world.

Roll of the Dice

Remember, back in the day, when Democrats were all united against Bush & Co?

I wrote a post about torture and that if we are torturing in order to defeat the terrorists we have become the terrorists.

What I see now is that many, many "democrats" in order to defeat the GOP have become the GOP.

Damn our Principles, full steam ahead.

Senator Obama lies to win the nomination stating in writing he'll take public financing if the Republican nominee does the same. Garners the support of Newspapers and progressives for his stance.

Turns out he can really raise the dough so he declines public financing in lieu of outspending John McCain.

His faithful Obamanation think it's great. He is using public financing because the money comes from the public. He's not using tax payer dollars, isn't he great? Yeah, ok, but he lied.

Senator Obama put a statement up on his web site in February of this year stating that he will never support a bill on Fisa that includes Telecom Immunity.

What happens when the bill comes up? He and Harry Reid will "try" to take immunity out but we have to fight the terrorists, by giving up our rights. Oh, and he'll change it once he's president. And isn't it terrible that the House Democrats put him in this position? Why couldn't they have waited until he's President?

He's willing to gamble with your fourth amendment rights. But the Obamanation knows what he really means, because, well, he's a constitutional lawyer/professor. And McCain is worse! If McCain wins he'll have all this power that Senator Obama will vote to give the president so we have to vote for Obama because he'll give it back because he says he will.

Does your head hurt? Are your eyes crossed?

Glen Greenwald has a story up on Salon about Olbermann. You know, that crazy guy who had a special comment about Fisa and telecom immunity a few short months ago? How it was the end of the world as we know it? Until Senator Obama says it not.

One of the comments was - this is where I draw the line in the sand. I cannot vote for Obama if he votes for the bill with immunity in it. I cannot vote for him if he doesn't filibuster.

Does the Obamanation have a line in the sand? Right now, I'm going with no. They trust his "words" even when his actions say the opposite.

Back when I was still a Democrat I was accused repeatedly of being a Republican because I cannot vote for Obama.

Turns out the Obamanation are the Republicans. They are no different from the Bush faithful who back their man no matter what. Nothing can make them question their faith in Dear Leader.

There will be no healing until Obama, Dean, Brazile and Michelle Obama apologize to the Clintons - In public.

MOCK OBAMA NOW!!!

O.D.S. (obama derangement syndrome) is a serious illness that causes totalitarian impulses, violent overreactions to perceived slights, humorlessness, gloating, bloating, and gas.

Oh my.

If you feel a case of O.D.S. coming on the best cure is to mock Obama. Make a crack about his hypocrisy. Not hard at this point. Or when your spouse says almost anything respond loudly with: YES WE CAN! 3 times.

Can we go to the beach on Sunday? Yes We Can! Yes We Can! Yes We Can!

or

We need to add more fiber to our diets. Yes We Can! Yes We Can! Yes We Can!

or

I am leaving you for a hot park ranger I met at Steak 'N Shake last week. I want a divorce: Yes We Can! Yes We Can! Yes We Can!

Put Ducky, Olbermann, and Barry on your dart board and invite friends over to throw some darts. It's much more fun than you'd think. Ducky is particularly satisfying to peg between the eyes.

The problem here is that now the Obama Pods don't even want us to have a few laughs at BHO's expense. We can 't talk about his past, his wife, his lack of resume, his race, his parents, his birth certificate, his house, his flip flops, his "present votes", his family in Africa, his terrorist connections, his church - none of it - we can't even crack a joke at his expense without it being vetted by the Obama Thought Police.

See, what happened was Jon Stewart made fun of Obama. That being his JOB and all. He's a comedian. (Do you know what that word means, Obama pods? His show is called the Daily Show - it is a send up of the news, obama pods. Do you understand satire, Pod kids? Did you get that lesson in re-education camp?)

Joseph Palmero, professor of Fascist Midwifing Studies at U.C. Bong Hit, wrote this at the intellectual crack house commonly known as the Huffington Post:

Jon Stewart and The Daily Show should be mindful whenever Obama is the target of their satire that they don't end up regurgitating Republican talking points.

Whoa NELLIE! There is a pre-fascist statement (or pre Maoist, if you like) if ever there was one.

Obamites confronted with something outside their All Hail Obama world view are lately more and more forced to ask WWGD? (What Would Goebbles Do?).

Palmero takes up the Goebbles BIG LIE mantle with ease, throwing a king sized plate of spaghetti at the wall. He blames, at least partially, the Iraq invasion on Jon Stewart. I swear. We are through the looking glass here, folks. (You may not know that Johnny Carson was at fault for Vietnam, Art Carney opened the door for the Korean conflict, Gracie Allen forced Germany into Poland, and Ellen Degeneres and Chris Rock are in the early planning stages for an American invasion of Iceland by way of New Rochelle and Bangor.) See Mr. Stewart if you don't love Obama all the time - you CAUSE WAR!

Stewart is now rethinking future Obama jokes because he does not want to be blamed for the West Nile Virus, Global Warming, and The Two Coreys on the A and E channel.

Dear Professor Joseph "Che" Palmero- Goebbles, The Daily Show should be MINDFUL that it put on a good program. Nothing else.

Can you imagine these Shining Path goons asking Jon Stewart when mocking John McCain - which he often does, - to be mindful of not regurgitating Democratic Talking points? Most of the Obama Pods like Palmero or Andrew Sullivan are pathetic and irretrievably lost to the Obama mind fuck - but the country is not. To prevent or cure O.D.S. the best method is humor.

Making fun of all politicians is as American as Mt. Rushmore and ridiculously large portions.

Do it. Do it as much as possible. Especially make fun of Obama - he and his goons are so thin skinned they make it EASY and FUN! Go on, write some of your own...

How many Trinity Church members does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Obama, Wright, and Ayres are on a plane going down and there is only one parachute...

"Change"

"Change? - How?"

The Pod Squad

Listening to NPR yesterday (as all conversations on the East Coast should start) there was a report on new progressive groups. As a throw away the reporter ended with:

But Huttner says there's also little evidence that the Progress groups are suffering financially — despite the fact that Democratic candidate Barack Obama told his donors last month not to give money to independent groups.

You'd think that maybe someone would want to cover the story of Obama's consolidation of Power. Does anyone else hear echos of Nixon?

While Humphrey ran a fighting, slashing campaign, Nixon's campaign was carefully managed and controlled. Nixon often held "town hall" meetings in cities he visited, where he answered questions from voters who had been carefully screened in advance by his aides. Nixon also implied that he had a "solution" to the war in Vietnam, but was vague in providing the details of his plan

Obama's is the first presidential campaign since Nixon to not use public financing. He's moved the DNC to Chicago. He wants all the money to go to him so that Howard will have to beg for crumbs off the table. Maybe he'll finance the convention and as part of the deal Senator Clinton's name will be off the ballot.

He shuts down all criticism with one word - RACISM. The press is too politically correct to get past that.

Obama is a less experienced Nixon with a happy face. All the same dirty tactics under the umbrella of "HOPE".

And the Pod Squad is along for the ride.

Senator Obama stated in writing that he would accept public financing if his opponent did the same.

Senator Obama stated in writing that he would not support any FISA bill that included Telecom immunity.

Were there some who woke up from their stupor? Sure. Were there more who made excuses? Of course. The Obamanation believes they know what he really means. They are fools.

Senator Obama I'm telling you that that words don't matter because you can't keep yours.

Labels: CREEP, give me hope and a pack of cigs, liar, loser, truth no more, you want hope with that?

Obama's control of the media.

It is all true. Obama has controlled the media in a way that would make Papa Stalin proud. Or, at the very least, Joe McCarthy. Roy Cohn is probably so impressed he'd is no doubt screaming "Yes, We Can!" in the deepest basement of hell.

Newsvine lays it out brutally here. Read it. But do so with the lights on as it is an American horror story. Everything from the absorption of the left wing blogs to the seizure of CNN is touched on. Not to mention the planned attacks on any one who voiced opposition - or even concern - about Obama. And, yes, the race card was played by Obama early, often and with abandon. I stated here months ago that Obama was running the most vicious Presidential campaign since Adams/Jefferson in 1800. It is clear now, I was wrong. Obama's primary campaign of 2008 is the most negative and mean spirited campaign in our history.

Thoughtful people who watch or read "news" in this country must come to terms with a simple fact sooner or later: There is no "news" media in the United States. There is a 24 hour show that feeds on the blogs - then itself - in cycles that last 36-74 hours. Like Phil Spectors Wall of Sound the media creates a Wall of Chatter. The only exceptions here are local stories and natural disasters but even in those cases the story is quickly molded into an event that avoids solid information. The financial model for reality TV is applicable here. Reality TV is, of course, not reality at all. If the perfunctory patterns of our day to day lives were put on television - no one would watch. Solid information costs money to gather. Journalists have to be journalists, go places, ask discerning questions, demand answers. 100 monkeys typing could have reported with more depth on Obama during the past 6 months. Sound bites and people chatting about the sound bites is much cheaper. This environment is just as conducive to P.R. agents and fads as Entertainment Tonight. Obama has proven both George Orwell and Paddy Chayefsky right.

For all that - the latest Gallup 3 day tracking poll has McCain and Obama tied. Who knows what will happen? I do know reality is often immune to P.R. Katrina taught us that. Reality may strike Obama from an odd angle no one sees coming. (Example: Israel is signalling there will be an attack on Iran - will security moms vote Hope/Change with the Middle East in flames?) Since BHO's campaign is based on FORCE not POWER it has inherent weaknesses and could collapse in an instant.

Regardless, most people can still discern the difference between an ad campaign for Love Guru and a Presidential campaign. The protection and promotion of Obama by the media may last past the election. But CNN is not in the business of news - it is in the business of weaving a narrative that keeps you and I tuned in. There will come a point with Obama, just like it did with Bush, when the media sees that the story has changed - the new narrative being "Who is this guy and can we trust him with the job?" It may happen after he has the job - but I pray it does not.

"Just When You Thought It Was Safe To Give Up"

By Guest Blogger Jay in (not of) Los Angeles

We aren't in a new "depression'. No, our current American misery is more active than those images we've all seen on TV commercials selling anti-depressants. A woman looks out of a window, expressionless. A man rubs his elbows, staring off into space. For some reason there's a cat, looking concerned.

No, our current misery is a verb, not an adjective. We're in The Great Worry.

The political parties that previously hung over us like steel umbrellas, no matter on which side we fell, haven't withstood the heat--test and have turned gooey and overly malleable for people with a more centered way of looking at the country and the world. The far left and the far right met up in a cheap motel sometime in the last decade and gave birth to The Great Worry.

But I found something while poking around news websites that has, in a morbid way, helped to lessen the burden of The Great Worry perpetrated upon us by our domestic unease. Something to worry about that I'd really never even considered worrying about.

Would it even cross your mind to say to a scientist, "Please make sure that anything you're working on won't have the side effect of creating a black hole that swallows the Earth whole?"

I really wouldn't have thought to ask. I'd have thought it was sort of universally assumed that even a .01 percent chance of a project creating a planet devouring black hole would be considered 'too risky'.

See, sometimes it's all about the questions you ask. And sometimes it's about the questions you wouldn't think to ask.

Exhibit A: Scientists discount possibility of "killer strangelet"

In other words: before voting for Barack Obama, please ask some pertinent questions. I suggest starting with, "Change is great -- but to what? And how?"

Though I'd avoid any allusion to "black holes', for obvious reasons.

I've decided that if I'm to endure The Great Worry, I'm not doing so quietly.

Lies, Damn Lies, and Obama ads.

I won't put the ad itself in this post because, frankly, it makes my skin crawl. You can see it here. But in BHO's first national buy of the general he claims credit for "Extended health care for wounded troops."

Lie.

91 Senators voted for this bill. Obama was not one of them. That is the truth. Obama did not show up to work that day.

When will the media begin to call this fraud out on his relentless lies? The Presidential Seal flap - now this - either his campaign is stupid or it is arrogant, or both. I thought his campaign against Clinton was his first real contest - but in retrospect it was clearly fixed. The General Election is probably the first time Obama has ever had to run a contested campaign - in which he was not "chosen" by the elites or able to remove opposition from the ballot.

Guest Post: Why I am for Obama

By Guest Blogger Cherish Amber Stevenson:

So like John asked me to write this post about while I am voting for Obama. So why i wait for my english class to start i will. I love Obama. He's so hot.

So it all started when my sister Malcolm started dating this guy Bhodi who runs the bike co-op down by campus - he's from Texas but he's so cool he was like the first Vegan in Austin - yeah. Or something like that. He won some award for being the most Vegan person ever. Like I'm a vegan too - except when my mom like makes steaks if I'm home to do my laundry - yeah. steaks. my mom is so cool. She went to like Woodstock or saw the movie when it first came out or something.

So my sister, Malcolm, tells me she is so into Bhodi and Bhodi is all "Obama, hope Obama change" Malcolm is all "What are you talking about, dude?" and Bhodi is all "Yeah, dude, He's like God or something. Obama's like a good feeling. He makes me all tingley like Gold Bond powder on my balls." And Malcolm is all "you're a poet, Bhodi." And I'm all like "Malcolm I am totally not into politics. Like not at ALL." and she's all like "no- dude- you don't understand, Obama's not either he's like just playing the game."

So I'm like "whatever".

Then like Bhodi and Malcolm get tickets to a Obama rally and like they ask me to go and I 'm like "Duh - American Idol finals are that night." and they are all like "Mom will TIVO it, dude!" and I'm like "Right, Samantha will totally text me and tell me who won. and ruin it." and then Malcolm says "Dude there will be tons of cute guys there. like TONS."

So I'm all like okay I'll go. and I go and like everyone is so happy. and like bhodi tells me a lot of vegans are for obama - and vegans are so cool. and bikes. bikes are cool. retro and cool. so there were sooooooooooo many cute guys at the rally. i like didn't even text the whole time i was there.

then obama came on stage and i like was so happy. I totally mean it! He was talking about hope and change and some other stuff. And everyone was going OH BOM AH - like those mean guards in the Wizard of Oz who say Oh EE Oh over and over. It was so cool. Like we were in the wizard of oz, too. which is totally retro and cool at the same time. like maddona. or books!

Like I Got it - you know what i mean? I had an Obama epiphernanny - or whatever it's called. And some girl fainted and he totally got her water. and I was so happy.

So that's why I am voting for Obama.

the end.

"Anybody who claims this [FISA Capitulation bill] is an okay bill, I really question if they've even read it." "Democrats enabled [this]," Feingold went on. "Some of the rank and file Democrats in the Senate who were elected on this reform platform unfortunately voted with Kit Bond who's just giggling he's so happy with what he got. We caved in."

Oh, how the Obamanation wish their guy had said that.

Instead it's Russ Feingold who stands up for principle.

It's who they think Obama is, but he isn't.

He also said he made said speech during a "tough" battle for his senate seat. Wrong, the speech was made during an Iraq War protest prior to his announcing his intention to run.

Obama is the guy who said he was against NAFTA while his economic advisor told the Canadians it was just political posturing.

Obama is the guy who will do anything to win.

Obamanation - you've been bamboozled.

Ah - we are living a Clockwork Orange.

Obama could murder somebody at this point and I would still vote for him...in other words...go fuck yourself!!!
Aren't the Obamatons a delightful bunch?

Obama's Little Red Book

When will the Obama campaign start handing out Little Red Books?

In the United States, it is difficult to imagine a scenario as scary as the sudden defense of warrantless wiretapping by the Obama Pod Squad. Many of the Obama sheeple have turned on a dime in the past week - because Obama turned on a dime. Now they defend the indefensible because their Dear Leader told them it was - suddenly - okay.

We've always been at war with Eastasia... to allude to Orwell's Big Brother.

This is the point were the Reactionaries and the Radicals close the circle. The difference between the far Right and the foolish Left is this: The far Right rarely has to double back. They enter stating their intention to end civil liberties, usually wearing brown shirts and scowls. The DailyKos Left is another matter. They lavishly pave the road to perdition with high rhetoric, smiles, and good intentions.

Those who supported Bush while he chipped away at civil liberties are less alarming because, frankly, we know what they are up to and about. In fact, they are working from a value system.
They may not be values we agree with - but they are values - beliefs acted upon.

What "values" are the excuse making progressives embodying?

None.

The only thing in play is the protection of the leader of a personality cult. Imagine Olbermann's vicious "Special Comment" about the our rights being trampled by Bush if Obama had kept his promise and voted against the bill.It isn't hard.

If Obama had said the FISA bill is now good, and all men born in odd numbered years should wear kilts on Tuesdays - we would all see an astounding number of men in kilts at the local Whole Foods this week.

Principles do not matter to the Obama campaign or its followers.

To see so many alleged progressives suddenly making excuses for Obama's vote on FISA betrays something sinister: a deep need to erase all conviction - in fact - all thought - and a willingness to attack all those who refuse. This is not the healthy need to participate in a force for good that is bigger than the individual. It is the unhealthy need to annihilate individuality.

The operative phrase is not My Country, Right or Wrong - it is Obama, Right or Wrong. Donna Brazille said if Obama does not get the nomination "there will be blood."

This is a statement that should be taken literally. They mean it. Your blood. Not theirs.

If you think that is hysterical - fine. Go read about Obama's history from some place other than his bestsellers. Go read history period. Then come back to 2008 and look at his campaign tactics.

It can happen here.

We're Green!

For Immediate Release

From Scarlett Johanson
Obama Headquarters
Chicago

We are going green.

All persons who would previously be thrown under the bus will now be asked to step in front of a moving train. All the better if the train is electric. One could also step on the third rail at any convenient subway stop. We are committed to energy efficiency and frankly, there's no more room under the bus.

We will continue our recycling program. Expect recycled speeches from Hillary Clinton in addition to more of Duval Patrick's greatest hits. We'll also be borrowing from John Edwards, JFK, Ronald Reagan, Brett Mussburger, LBJ, RKF, FDR, Ice Tea and Vanilla Ice.

All previous "policy" positions are now inoperable. We will be hanging them out on the line to die, whoa, dry. Fortunately there were not many and there will be no change to the important positions of Hope and Change.

Anything said or promised in during the drawn out primary will be replaced with energy efficient (and hopefully centrist, pandering, swinging for swing voters) new models. Positions on FISA and Public Financing had to go as they were a drain on pulling undecided voters. It's also proof that we really are all about Change.

Our biggest green push is for your money. Keep it coming. We had a bad May, our worst fundraising month in 2008. Send checks, credit cards, gold, oil, jewelry and antiques immediately. If you thought Freedom isn't free you won't believe the cost of Hope and Change. We will, of course, continue to blame Hillary Clinton for any deficits.

We're proud to be the first campaign since Richard Nixon to not take public financing. It's further proof of our post-racial, post-partisan position.

In related news we're pleased to announce that our new Press Secretary is the ghost of Ron Ziegler.

Here's a comment on the Cheetos Blog about Hillary Clinton that Ducky did NOT delete:

Just slit her throat, lock her in a car boot, and drive the car into a river in West Virginia.

Whether a happy mob or an angry mob. These people are dangerous. I hope and pray everyone reading this will do whatever they can - legally - to defeat these people.

Obama shark jump watch: deconstructing the pretend Presidential seal

What else can be said about BHO's mock up of the Presidential seal at a conference with Democratic Governors? Since he is one of two major contenders for President one wants to look out across the landscape and find reasons to believe he is NOT a megalomaniac sociopath - and yet his campaign keeps telegraphing that he is - and they are on board. Like the "mission accomplished" banner behind Bush low those many years ago the image of Obama behind a pretend Presidential seal is so obnoxious it bends the mind. The man does not even have his party's nomination yet - that is still over 2 months off. One has to wonder what the state chief executives in the audience thought of this paper mache "seal". Even the most ardent Pro Obama Governors had to have a had a moment of "jeez, at least I've done something in my career." Obama is a prime example of the something for nothing society that we live in. Give me the job now. Emphasis on the word give.

So what were they thinking?

This "seal" was discussed in an Obama campaign meeting. Designing a seal as a rip off the Presidential Seal was approved. Further is was decided that it would be used at a meeting of actual chief executives - this is the job title Obama wants, but has never had.

One can easily conclude that the seal is meant to give the Governors a shove backward. What the fake seal says is: "Look, I know most of you in the room have accomplished more and are more qualified than me for the job I want. But I am the leader here, so don't push it."

As Patsy Stone, the glamorous drunk on BBC's Absolutely Fabulous, said whenever confronted: "Don't Question Me!" Or better, South Park's Cartman: "Respect my Autthori-tah!" - deliciously barked by an 8 year old who has no authority.

If the stakes weren't so high the whole Obama event would be interpreted as a joke. Or a silly play the neighborhood kids were putting on in a barn.

Since Obama choked on FISA yesterday my fear of him has lessened a small amount. (Not because I agree with his flip flop, I adamantly do NOT.) This could be foolish of me. Afterall, Obama has no track record and his history is pock marked with radicals and idiots. Nevertheless, what Obama told us by voting for the FISA bill is simple enough: There will be no real change. Those who run the show behind the scenes will continue unabated by me. I want to win, principles be damned. A few of those who feed at the trough will be switched out for others. But the trough will remain in place.

I'll take a new face at the head of the same old system for four more years over the studied psychosis of Black Liberation Theology and dime store socialism any day.

Still, what are we to make of this latest stunt with the Presidential seal? The mental atmospherics that went into Obama's willingness to affix the pretend seal to himself are disturbing. The analogies connecting the happily arrogant W. Bush and the petulant Obama are strengthened every day. But the seal stunt puts Obama in a league of his own. One cannot imagine W in 2000, or his father in 1988 being quite as arrogant and tacky.

Questioning the "Dear Leader"

I can't get my mind around just how arrogant the Obama Presidential Seal is...until I wrestle it to the ground and can apply some thought- I am posting this youtuber. This is a young Obama supporter who is backing away from him now because of BHO's flippety flop of accepting public financing. He also begins to questions the cultish adoration by focusing on youtube commenters.
I think "creepy" is the word he uses.
The worst kool aid drinkers are beyond help. People like this guy - who genuinely thought Obama was a good choice, and are now seeing him for what he is - can be saved from the Obama Pod Squad. Thanks to JK or the tip on this:

Blame it on the Rain

Senator Obama is Milli Vanilli.

He's been caught lip-syncing.

Will the DNC demand the nomination back the way the Recording Academy took back their Grammy for "Best New Artist"?

The problem with falling in love with someone you know nothing about is there is no where to go but down. That's why it's called infatuation. It's not based on anything but an ideal. To be fair to Senator Obama no one could possibly measure up and stay on the pedestal.

The teeny-boppers who adore Obama have discovered his feet of clay.

He's a liar.

He'll do anything to win.

There were other comments on the Obamapost and Kosco from still rabid supporters that said that he had to say he'd vote for the bill or else get labeled as soft on terror. He doesn't really mean it. They know what "Barack" really means.

Kids, what "Barack" really means is anything to get ahead with the least amount of work. Throw old friends and commrades under the bus, roll back and forth until completely crushed. Steal other people's work and take credit for it. Play the dirtiest politics, trash other people's reputations and claim to be NEW!

Girl, you know it's true.
