An Act of God? »

All of Colorado is preparing itself for the Democratic National Convention. Denver is already filling up with anxious participants.  The Secret Service is said to be camped out on downtown rooftops.

Some Hillary supporters are arriving in hopes of seeing her name on the ballot, in one form or another. Other people, including the Just Say […]

Stating the Obvious »

A prominent conservative Republican has stated the obvious:
In a tough year like this, Democrats could probably have defeated Republican John McCain with a flawed, but seasoned candidate like Hillary Clinton. But long-suffering liberals convinced their party to go with a messiah rather than a dependable nominee — and thereby they probably will get neither.
— The […]

“I AM the One For Whom You Have Been Waiting” »

Obama was waxing lyrical about last week’s trip to Europe, when he concluded, according to the meeting attendee, “this is the moment, as Nancy [Pelosi] noted, that the world is waiting for.”
The 200,000 souls who thronged to his speech in Berlin came not just for him, he told the enthralled audience of congressional representatives. […]

Forgive Them Father »

My colleagues are in high dudgeon today over the outrage perpetrated on The Child in Jerusalem; you know, Notegate at the Wailing Wall. Everyone seems to be SHOCKED, OUTRAGED and DEEPLY OFFENDED that The Chosen One could be made to suffer such an indignity, such a gross violation of privacy. This infraction is so […]

The Messiah »

Written and read by Gerard Baker of the Times of London:
He ventured forth to bring light to the world
The anointed one’s pilgrimage to the Holy Land is a miracle in action - and a blessing to all his faithful followers

The Adulation of a Leader: a Cautionary Tale »

Barack Obama broke with tradition when he moved the Democratic National Committee from DC to Chicago. For many of us, this move emphasized the merger of the Obama campaign with the Democratic Party. And to many of us, that merger made clear that the Democratic Party no longer belongs to the people, it belongs to […]

The Choice (But I’ve Been Touched) - A Long Overdue Update »

Late on the evening of February 21, 2008, I was transformed. Alas, it’s been quite a while since I’d visited the site, “Is Barack Obama the Messiah?,” and I didn’t realize how much I’d missed. On February 21st, I discovered:
I’ve been touched by the “bluesman from Chicago.” I’ve been inspired by the “new synthetic […]

Che, Obama, and the Revolutionary Agenda »

It’s really not surprising that some Obama supporters — with their blinkered, cult-like worship of Obama — have Ernesto “Che” Guevara side-by-side with their icon of Hope and Change.

Some attribute the use of Che’s image in Obama’s campaign offices to his naive young followers. The only Che they know comes from Hollywood, portrayed by Gael […]

Kobe, R. Kelly…Obama? »

I am a major contributor at DoneDems.com. “DONE” stands for “Democrats Over Nominating Elitists.”

Once again, I am in the minority. While I stood and still stand as a member of the 18 million strong majority of Hillary Clinton’s supporters, I represent an infinitesimal minority as a member of the less than 10% of African Americans […]

Excuses, Excuses »

A round up of comments in Obamaland (Talking Points Memo and Crooks and Liars, I dare not tread the threads on the DailyKos, not enough disinfectant in California to delouse me later) on Senator Obama and FISA:
105 Democratic representatives voted for the bill. Obama doesn’t have the political capital to win this battle. It’s silly […]
