People don’t support Barack Obama because they think he’s a good leader. Quite the opposite. They support him because they think he will do what they would do if they were president. Obama supporters think they could run the country, and they want Obama to do it by proxy. They really believe that experience is meaningless, that their innate “intelligence” and “insight” is all they need to operate the controls of the world’s largest military and economic power. Some of them, of course, actually want to destroy the country just for the fun of watching it burn.
You can see this mania play out right here on Instablogs.
Recently one of Instablog’s most mendacious and shameless propagandists, who blogs without doing research or posting links in the manner of a charlatan, wrote a post disingenuously called “The Case Against Barack Obama.” But the only purpose of the post was to summarily ignore all the evidence against Obama and blindly further his cult of personality, under false pretenses.
The next time you’re in the mood to be amused, ask an Obama supporter a simple question: “What would you have to learn about Obama to cause you to stop supporting him?” They’ll give you the same type of gibberish that a Jim Jones supporter would have, right before drinking that fateful Kool Aid. Because anything they might name could happen tomorrow, and they they’d be stuck, wouldn’t they? Then it will become crystal clear now much Obama’s minions care about pesky, annoying little things like facts.
So in response I offer the case for Barack Obama.
I recently published a post in which I listed six specific promises Obama had made during his primary election campaign which he then repudiated as soon as he got the nomination, stabbing his liberal supporters in the back. In response, the liberal Daily Kos blog’s publisher has revoked his promise to donate $2,000 to the Obama campaign.
Now the New York Times reports on yet a seventh broken promise by Obama, and he hasn’t even been formally nominated yet. During the primaries Obama promised to quickly end the war in Iraq. Now, he’s going to “refine” his policies and do no such thing.
So it’s perfectly clear that Obama is just another lying politician. It’s just as clear that, by his own terms, there is no reason to vote for him. He’s totally unqualified for office, and his only argument in his own defense has been that he’s not just another lying politician, but represents “change you can believe in.”
However, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t vote for him, even if you’re a Republican. There are two excellent reasons to do so.
First, Bill Clinton. Democrats, idiots that they are, were overjoyed when Clinton was elected. But soon, the House of Representatives was back in Republican hands after a 50-year absence. Welfare had been abolished, the budged balanced, NAFTA enacted, capital punishment staunchly supported. These were all Republican pipe dreams. Bill Clinton actually did them. Clinton was then followed by an eight-year Republican presidency with a good portion of time seeing the party in control of Congress.
Second, Jimmy Carter. Just as in 1976, the nation is poised to enter a recession at the end of an eight-year Republican term. Just as in 1976, if Obama takes power he’ll get the blame for it. Just like Carter, he’ll be too soft for American tastes on our enemies, and just like Carter after four years he’ll be decisively repudiated and power turned back to the Republicans. In 1980, that meant 12 years of uninterrupted Republican rule.
The inevitable failure of the Obama presidency, both because of Clintonian betrayal of liberal ideals and Carterian incompetence with the economy and foreign policy, will usher in a whole new era of Republican dominance. His outrageous dishonesty, corruption and lack of principle (blind Clintonian ambition) will alienate his own party, divide it and lay waste to it. Along the way, the loathsome, racist institution of affirmative action will bite the dust, and the forces of American conservatism will be radically rejuvenated in a manner no other event could so effectively induce.
That’s the case for Barack H. Obama. And for the cherry on top, he’s on a sneaker! What more could you ask?
