O'bama is the greatest man ever

The gospel according to Barack

Barack Obama's San Francisco remarks drip with contempt for the concerns of the average American. According to Obama, the beliefs and concerns of the average (small-town, Rustbelt) American are symptoms of embitterment and psychic damage. For this average American, even religion is a function of embitterment and false consciousness. Obama and his fellow congregants in the church of Jeremiah Wright have "that true religion." In small-town Pennsylvania they have something that needs Obama's ministrations. Obama exudes arrogance and disdain.

This past February, Michelle Obama delivered a speech at a hastily assembled UCLA rally. It is a remakable document to which only Hugh Hewitt devoted the attention it deserved. Michelle Obama presented her husband as the only candidate who stood to cure our sick souls. Her claims on his behalf only made express the implications of his own more soothing rhetoric.

In the wake of Barack Obama's remarks to the San Francisco Democrats last Sunday, Michelle Obama's preaching of the gospel according to Barack is revelatory:

Barack Obama will require you to work. He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your division. That you come out of your isolation. That you move out of your comfort zones. That you push yourselves to be better. And that you engage. Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual; uninvolved, uninformed.

We can only pray that our fellow Americans find the gospel according to Barack Obama to be too good for us.
 
Watching the right wing nut-jobs run around screaming just warms my heart.

It's that smell of desperation mixed with fear. That's the smell of Conservatism hanging it's hopes on the pariah turned "Hero". :cool:
 
Uncle Daffy, The LOON:rolleyes:

BUT

Just what were your predictions in '06 again? Massive wins for the *snort* Republican *choke* congressional *laugh* congressional hopefuls.

How many seats did you lose again, I lost count from laughing too hard.
 
Obama may win the nomination, but it seems doubtful he can win the election.
The dems are running neck and neck with McCain between the two of them. Some of the losers voters are sure to vote for McCain because they are pissed, or they'll stay home and watch reruns on TV. Either way McCain wins.

It's a long ways till the election - but that's how it looks right now.

Based on the microcosm of my workplace, which is overwhelmingly conservative, McCain is in for a rude awakening. Most of them are planning to stay home rather than support him. They feel he's pandering, doing exactly what Hillary is doing on the opposite side. saying anything to get support.

They predicted the same outcome as Dizzybooty did in '06.

Wrong. No one views the current candidate as ideal. However, as opposed to a fish who has a bigger penis than her spouse and has difficulty running a campaign let alone a country, or an eagle scout running on platitude, a war hero who annoyingly kowtows across the aisle suddenly becomes appealing.

Not according to the overwhelmingly conservative workforce at my place of business. Most are planning to stay home and not bother at all with McCain as the "conservative" candidate.
 
Is Nader running again? I may have to vote for him again. There is no decent candidate anywhere

I was talking about national polls - I know nothing of your work place.
But I will say that those who say they are not going to vote are probably not voting in polls either.

Pauline Kael, New Yorker Magazine's film reviewer, on Nixon's re-election: How can this be? No one I know voted for him!

Your workforce is a great demographic, taking in every subgroup of the population.
Where do you live? Nebraska?
 
Obama will suffer for his exercise in sidewalk sociology.

Obama said there was "anti-immigrant sentiment." Wrong. America was built by immigrants. The sentiment is against illegal immigrants.

Obama said that was "antipathy" in small towns. In other words, he thinks people in small towns are racists.

As to Obama's remarks re guns and religion, his spindoctors will have to work overtime to try to rationalize such moronic comments.
 
I wouldn't say "doomed".

I would go with "nearly doomed"

Or "mostly doomed"

"semi doomed"?

Hehe I guess we might actually hit doomed in November.

Ok I offically drop the act that I was an Obama supporter. It didn't cause bb to have a heartattack so it's not even worth the effort.

Actually my workforce covers a pretty broad swath of the population.

Florida is a very diverse place and leans "conservative" for the most part. Southerners, Northern transplants, Black folks both Southern born and Northern, immigrants from South and Central America, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Haiti, The UK and all over Europe. Folks from all over the world live and work here.

So yeah, it's a pretty damned good cross section of the country, hell it's a pretty damn good cross section of the world if you account for students here on work visas for educational reasons.
