SubscribeBarack Obama’s (Endless) Victory Speech
In case you missed Mr. Obama’s historic address last night and have a half hour to spend, via YouTube:
Obama “Our Time Has Come” Part 1
Obama “Our Time Has Come” Part 2
A transcript of Mr. Obama’s remarks would probably run in excess of twenty pages. And yet he says practically nothing.
Instead, he intones sonorous platitudes seemingly selected from a poetry class in an all girls junior high school
Worse still, when he does inadvertently veer into any kind of specifics Mr. Obama suddenly sounds like the latest reincarnation of Josef Stalin or Pol Pot.
Is there really where we are today as a nation?
Have we really been so dumbed down that we are all like the hysterical blonde buffoon over Obama’s right shoulder who finds this empty rhetoric so incredibly moving she eventually swoons?
If so, God help the United States of America.

When I watched this last night I couldn’t keep my eyes off that “blonde buffoon” acting so ridiculous. That emotional devotion is just plain blind. I remember seeing it in Michael Jackson fans when he was on trial. They could actually see nothing wrong with him sharing his bed with little boys. It makes me wonder just what they would let Obama get away with.

Besides, who can vote for a candidate who says “different than,” rather than “different from”?
Sheesh.

“Michael Jackson………sharing his bed with little boys. It makes me wonder just what they would let Obama get away with.”
Sharing HIS bed with Michael Jackson maybe? :-}

“Besides, who can vote for a candidate who says “different than,” rather than “different from”?”
THANK YOU. I have hated that since I was a child, along with “whenever I was at school yesterday. . .”
As to the state of our nation, I’ve decided that it doesn’t make too much of a difference in who gets elected. Our constitutional democracy is going down. It’s only a matter of speed. Pols vote for power, citizens are voting for loot. My main complaints at this point are a) why can’t we just call the Democratic party the Socialist party? It is what it is. Maybe at least some remotely conscious people still voting that way would have the truth staring them in the face. And, b) can we stop pretending that we actually use our constitution?
(Obviously I don’t really mean that I want to stop using the Constitution. But maybe we could openly acknowledge that it’s been pervertedly misread to the point that it is no longer interpreted with any similarity to what was intended.)

“Believe it or not, I support helping people who are devastated by storms.” (Crowd goes wild, screaming).
“I believe when storms hit, we Americans can dig in and hit back! If I am elected, we will stand in front of tornados and , with the power of hope, blow them over with change! It is only in hope for a better America that we can defeat the tornados of life and lift our spirits to the sky to hitch our dreams on the clouds of hope, becoming beacons of light in the darkness that Bush has brought on us. It is audacious, I know, to hope, when our country is so horrible and everyone is so miserable, but we can hope our way out of any hole, climbing the ladder of faith, in lockstep with determination to become different than hopelessness and beleive in a better tomorrow, that starts today–that is why it is called a present! If we hope to change we can change hope into what we hoped it would be and be different than what we weren’t meant to be! Blah, blah blah….”

It’s absolutely BRILLIANT. He plans to win the war on terrorism, and everything else, by talking people to death.
*flushes with shame to realise she sometimes says “different than” herself*

Obama believes in helping people who are devastated by storms? Well, excuse me, Mr. Obama, but I didn’t see your happy ass in Mississippi when I was helping people replace their roofs and try to put their lives back together. I didn’t even see you serving food to those living in shelters or helping people learn how to dump the black water tanks in their FEMA provided travel trailers. Where the hell were you? Nor did I hear of you going to that concrete sewer called New Orleans and trying to talk your brothers out of robbing people, looting stores or shooting your other brothers. Matter of fact, I never heard you say just how many people of the storm you took into your $1.8 million home that your buddy who is currently under indictment helped you get.
So tell me, Mr. Obama, how do you intend to help them? By taxing the hell out of those of us who actually did something about it?
I heard an interview of Obama supporters on the radio yesterday. They were asked “what has Obama accomplished as a Senator”. The answers were always the same “duh, uh, well, uh, what do you mean by “accomplishments”?”
So here you have it, ladies and gentlemen. The American voter who backs an empty suit, a Saul Alinsky socialist, an Elmer Gantry and an opportunist who is reporting for duty now that he has voted to require permission from the Mexican government before we can build the damn fence.
The American public school system in its full glory.

Nothing is more enlightening than generic campaign rhetoric! LOL
We’re in this together! Yea! Hurrah!
We’ll take back the Whitehouse. Yea!
Yes, we can! Yea! Hurray!
Where does Obama actually stand on the important issues? I mean really? Do his supporters know what they are really cheerleading for? It’s kinda eerie. ( A lot of blogs today were referring to it as a “cult”.)

Ptat: that was brilliant! I’m going to cut and paste that to a few people I know. Hope you don’t mind! :)

Youch. I hope for the hope that I really thought hope was to be that I don’t have to listen to that trench mouth numbskull for 4 years(me), (Omama) lest I hang my fears high upon the highest, mightiest, most brilliant shiny orb, that is what dreams are hung from, stripped from the hands of that wretch of a man, George Bush, the mighty heathen himself, and I will stomp that ol’ devil back down to Texas, and sweep out from under the rug of humanity all his bent up cronies, oh yes, it is only then that we will have become what it is we have always HOPED to become, like when I was a young child in a hate filled madrassas in indonesia awestruck by that shimmering crescent moon, oops, strike that, when I was a young follower of Christ, transformed into a Hawaiian rainbow warrior for hope………(me) damnit he sucks and has a lot to say.

You guys think you’re so clever with your parodies. Don’t you realize that the cult Kool-Aid drinkers will not be able to tell the difference from regular ObamaBlather?
So we should expect to hear them in next week’s monologue from the Magic Negro. Heck, he’s so empty he’ll probably think he wrote them.
Not to be too snotty but THIS COUNTRY IS A CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC!
NOT A DAMN DEMOCRACY! Got it? Good.
