Lately, Obama (the man who claimed to be beyond politics) is doing what
all politicians do after securing the nomination of their party,
running for the center. To do so, he has had to back peddle on almost
every one of his positions, from his Iraq withdrawal time table, to gun
control, to whether or not he views Iran as a threat.
A representative from the Obama campaign was a guest on Fox and Friends this morning. First they asked him what Obama planned to do about the price of gas.
The answer: (spoken with a proud smile) "Our plan is to invest in alternative energy and look to the future."
Translation: Obama plans to do NOTHING about the gas prices.
Then, the Fox and Friends hosts listed a great many of
Obama's adjusted positions and asked the spokesman to explain how their
"apolitical candidate" can justify all the two faced talk.
The response of the spokesman: "Oh no. Barrack Obama has remained consistent from the beginning."
"Are you saying Obama has not flip-flopped on anything?"
At which time, the campaign rep merely repeated himself: "Barrack Obama has remained consistent from the beginning."
Oh...Well.... Gee...OK...I guess that settles it. Never mind the
facts. Never mind that his speeches have been recorded and we
have heard both sides of every one of his positions. If his campaign
rep says his messages have remained constant, then that's good enough
for me, especially if he took the time to say it twice!
Sadly, this really will be good enough for Obama's
supporters. I'm telling you, they could find out that the guy hatched
from a space pod and plans to feed us to the Martians and it will not
make any difference to these mesmerized masses that follow their Pied
Piper.
Do you have any idea how cultish this man's following has become? As a
campaign strategy, people are being discouraged from talking about the
issues and encouraged to share their "testimony" instead. "Just tell
people your own story, how you RECEIVED Obama." You think merging
church and state is a problem? Obama's supporters believe in merging God and state, so long as they can worship Obama as God.
The New York Times reported today that several hundred young men are changing their names to Hussein to show solidarity with Obama's middle name.
There's also a wide variety of Barrack Obama products hitting the
market, including, (and I kid you not) Barrcak Obama Thong Underwear!
It's getting harder to write a satirical blog and make these things up
because the truth is stranger than fiction. Fortunately, at the moment,
I can still offer some Barrack Obama products of my own: Now mind you,
even though they come from my imagination today, they may turn up as
truth in The New York Times tomorrow:
1) An Obama Vending Machine: It takes your dollar bills and in return, gives you change.
2) An Obama Board Game, (played kind of like Monopoly in
reverse) It has many squares derivative of Luxury Tax. The one who
loses his money to the government first, wins. Come to think of it, if
Obama wins the election, the name of Parker Brothers' other hit game
will better describe the way we'll all feel: Sorry.
3) Obama Foreign Policy Bubble Gum: After pushing out enough hot air through your mouth, everything blows up in your face.
4) Obama Toy Army Men: The kid who can pick them off the floor and put them away first, achieves withdrawal and wins.
5) The Obama Decoder Ring: It does not glow in the dark because it
wants to conserve energy. But it does untangle special codes. For
example, using a number for each letter of the alphabet we can decipher
Obama's undercover plan to deal with Ahamadinnejad: Here's the
code: Just match the 26 letters of our alphabet with their
corresponding number in chronological order and you can figure
out Obama's top secret plan: 1-16-16-5-1-19-5-13-5-14-20
