The Obama Drama
What a story! It has everything! Aliens, legal and otherwise, teen pregnancy, polygamy, miscegenation, crooked Chicago political bosses, a “true confessions” autobiography, a crazy preacher, a Cinderella rise to fame and glory, a Hamlet-like hero, a dual-loyalty Svengali, a spectacular affirmative-action success story. Race, sex, dysfunctional family, extreme limousine leftism, crime and mystery! You couldn’t make this up for a soap opera.
It is a little unfair to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., don’t you think? Another sainthood candidate so soon after King’s beatification.
One secret of Obama's success. Under George W. Bush a foreigner has settled in the U.S. every 36 seconds. Not counting illegals, at least some of whom don't vote. Then too, Obama had Karl Rove working for him for over eight years.
He's not even to the White House yet! Already: economic collapse, mortgage of the country to speculators, constitutional crisis in the Senate, a cover-up, ethnic cleansing in the Middle East, Jesse Jackson, Jr., lurking in the wings, and rumours of a new Kennedy taking after an old Clinton.
It's going to be interesting. Try to remember to keep your sense of humour.

"It is a little unfair to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., don’t you think? Another sainthood candidate so soon after King’s beatification."
I am sure that Obama will evoke Dr. King in his inaugural rhetoric or in the text of one of his numerous speeches beginning in Philadelphia on 17 January. Lincoln, "the saint," will, however, be acted out by training from Philadelphia through Baltimore to Washington on AMTRACK, the ultimate "internal improvement," which would tickle the old railroad lawyer and advocate of internal improvements, Honest Abe. When Obama passes through Baltimore, I hope they play "Maryland, My Maryland," written, I am proud to say right down here in Louisiana. It would be, for some of us who catch the contradiction, a moment of passive resistance which I learned to appreciate during my visits to the German Democratic Republic.
"It’s going to be interesting. Try to remember to keep your sense of humour."
That may prove difficult indeed. Considering the buffoons, clowns, crooks, thieves, and perverts we have running a system that appears little more than organized corruption, I believe we have the makings of a first class comedy. Too bad it’s all for real! It makes on wonder how it lasted 144 years.
I'm preparing for the long haul by stocking a good supply of bourbon and cigars before the taxes go way, way up. At least we finally might get Cuban stogies that are legal and authentic.
I wonder who Lil' Smokin' Barry will put in charge of The Ministry of Truth.
Unfortunately, Barack Obama has many things going his way. He has large majorities in Congress. The press is a bulwark. The Republicans are not only timid they are discredited by the Wall Street collapse, the recession and the fiasco in Iraq. John McCain and his Sancho Panza, Lindsay Graham, are all set to attack their own party members in support of the Democrats. And, as a communicator, Obama compares favorably with Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton and contrasts with the bumbling George W. Bush and the typewriter-like oration of Dick Cheney.
"John McCain and his Sancho Panza, Lindsay Graham, are all set to attack their own party members in support of the Democrats."
McCain is the gentile David Frum, when you get down to it.
First the Jews tell him to attack the evangelicals, so he does it (killing his 2000 campaign). Then the Jews tell him to push for war against Iraq, so he does it (crippling the Republican Party).
Now the colored tells him we need bipartisan work on a "stimulus package", so he does it (quite possibly leading to the destruction, for all time, of the United States of America).
If you want McCain to do something for you, you best put on some blackface or undergo foreskin removal surgery before you ask him...
So who wants to put on the blackface and traipse to DC?
Just give Juan McCain some sob story about how the stimulus package is actually racist, like bringing up the political alliances of your opponent in a political campaign!
Let me think, how could we do this...
I got it.
The stimulus package is taking $800b from foreigners and giving it to Americans, some of whom are white! When what we obviously should be doing, to show how not racist we are to everyone except the Palestinians, is take $800b from Americans and give it to foreigners.
I don't know if McCain is quite stupid enough that he'd buy. But as long as the message is delivered by a strong blackfaced man, he'll assent out of the mindless fear that is his only notable trait.
...and you people wonder why you lose elections? And you IDIOTS [it comes from upbringing don't you know?] wonder why you're ideology is inert, why the tenets of conservatism have a hollow ring true them?
Because what lies underneath that is the erosive rationale that is borne out of social conservatism. But that also allows you cretins to get off easily...but that's for another time and another board.
"Now the colored..." - Part of the utterly mindless crescendo that Mr. Johnson was constructing...
Look, you need some help man and obviously you're not only dealing in cognitive distortion but temporal distortion as well!
What color is the sky in your reality?
Mr. Wilson, awaken your party and purge the idiocrats or perish in the early part of the 21st century.
You all FAIL miserably at life.
sorry for the typo:
opening statement read: "...hollow ring true them?"
should have read "...hollow ring -TO- them?

Burnham nailed it over 40 years ago. "Liberalism is the ideology of Western suicide." Once one understands this, it's easy to see why the spiritually sick who succomb to its Siren song regard conservative "ideology" as inert and idiotic. Conservatives try to CONSERVE what is left of Western Civilization. How unexciting to the liberal who wants to tear it all down!
Truthfully, there isn't such a thing as "conservative ideology," merely the desire in men of the West (the few who remain) to preserve what's left of a once-great civilization against the suicidal rage of the culture destroyers.
Your use of the phrase "erosive rationale" in referring to social conservativism is hysterical. Is it worth telling you that you have it exactly wrong?
As an advocate of the death of the West, your opinion in these columns is as irrelevant to us as the opinion of the Athlete's Foot fungus is to its host holding the Tinactin spray.
Stop posting here.
P.S. Pet pieve: The second person possessive form is "your," not "you're."

If only that guy @ 8 were the best that the anti-culture had to throw at us, if only!
"dysfunctional family"
What is more frightening is that a man from such a situation could be portrayed as "stable" in the mass media. The Obamas make the Bushes look like the good old neighbours next door.
Anybody want to rent my house in VA for $10,000? It's only 40 miles from the District. My mother-in-law lives inside the beltway, and would be delighted to rent her pad for $20K the week. Oh well, just thought I'd ask. This town is going to turn into a zoo. 30 years ago I watched Cater's parade because I was working nights back then. Pennsylvania Ave. was a run down boulevard lined with pigeon-infested slums. You could drive across the 14th Street Bridge, park anywhere at the Washington Monument and take the elevator up with no wait. The museums were pretty much empty. Now it's a police state with cameras recording every move, parking meters that don't work, tow trucks, denver boots, ten different police departments to shake down the middle class, etc. ad nauseam.
All hail government greed!
Wow, I like this SUPER controlling MOD delay, in the meantime, I hope you like my last post. And by the way...did I tell you idiots what I thought of Mr. Wilson?
"Buckwheat".
And Mr. Peters, just so as you know we in the LEFT culture like technology, we like to automate the ever mundane and routine task, the day to day as it were. We like scripts, we like to dispatch agents of change!
Would you like to meet one?
oh can't handle a little swearing eh?
well you suck CAULK, you know that right? You're all a bunch of MUTHA FRAKN insects who SUK ON SATAN'S Caulk, all the while you and your elected leaders sit on his shoulder cheering you on!
You people are FRAKN LESIONS.
What do we do about this?
Nothing is more entertaining than a leftist who talks.
This little leftist putz is the typical product of today's schools. By the way, his handle is perfectly appropriate ("alogicbit"), since it seems to come from the Greek alogos, which means "irrational."
Joe:
"Putz"
Did you learn that on jpost?
NGPM:
...Nothing is more entertaining that baiting tool bags into quixotic messages!
+3 for alogicbit
Would it be fair to say that you people think conservatism is a valid ideology in this country?
Nibble, nibble ...?
Now, I actually enjoy the ephemeral nature of comments and the organic threads that develop as a result of good, honest and open minded debate.
This is for Mr. Wilson:
"economic collapse, mortgage of the country to speculators, constitutional crisis in the Senate, a cover-up, ethnic cleansing in the Middle East, Jesse Jackson, Jr., lurking in the wings, and rumours of a new Kennedy taking after an old Clinton..."
Ok you scum sucking poseur, you FRAKN mildly educated hack, are you talking about the GOP [neo right, old right, interventionists]?
I think you are highly delusional and a joke, you got that...? A-F-R-A-K-N JOKE. You sir, are a poor excuse for a public intellectual!
I suppose, in some sort of relative way, your anachronistic, destructively conservative principles not too mention flat out racism, bigotry, prejudicial world view [social conservative] might be interesting to people with single digit IQ's, like every user on this abattoir of logic!
Ha and I don't recall what SERF made this statement, but you IDIOTS think you're preserving culture, you mean a dead culture? I am sorry, but you are on the wrong side of history and come 1/20/2009, you are going on the enemies list.
Hello Darkness...
GOODBYE.
I'll be collating Mr. Wilson's work as part of his profile, and adding any new essays that might be published, but sir, you would be well advised to seek a less public position.
I will round up the agents of change and once we have a handle on the 8000 MEGA conservative / Idio-Theocratic sleeper cells buried into numerous civil service branches, we'll be dealing with internet medium. Did I tell you our plans for right wing radio?

alogicbit -- Good riddance! Now you can go and squeal your findings about this obscure site to your supervisors at the Medigo Project. From there our e-mail addresses will be linked, to our online credit card purchases, our cell phone records, and finally the firemen will come and torch the contents of my basement. The Local Gannett Paper will ask the police which books were in my collection, and I will be pegged as a Russian agent because of my collection of Dostoyevskiy, Tolstoy, Golitsyn, Zinoviev and Solzhenitsyn.
