"And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name..."
Looks like the girls found their man.
Posted by Hallelujah at November 4, 2009 7:05 PMObama is an imaginary President...a creation of Marketing.
He's like The Shell Answer Man, Reddy Kilowatt and Speedy Alka-Seltzer all rolled into one.
At least the Shell Answer Man tossed out some useful info once in a while.
Posted by Mumblix Grumph at November 4, 2009 10:45 PMI walked into this empty church, I had no place else to go
When the sweetest voice I ever heard, whispered to my soul
I don't need to be forgiven for loving you so much
It's written in the scriptures
It's written there in blood
I even heard the angels declare it from above
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure for love --Leonard Cohen
Well, I'm one of those who "imagined" just how bad O would be, and tried to get people to listen. But they believed the hype, to their great regret. As Will Smith said in "I, Robot", "Sometimes 'I told you so' just doesn't quite say it".
Posted by waltj at November 5, 2009 7:24 AMYour post calls to mind one of the dominant aspects of the Clinton Administration (and of Bill Clinton post-presidency): while Clinton was very good at achieving his own ends, he was very poor at getting other Democrats elected. This was a constant complaint from within the Democratic Party itself for years and years.
The results yesterday may indicate a similar fate for Obama, who has little of Clinton's genuine charisma, nor is he, I suspect, as bright as Clinton himself (remember that Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar, while Obama refuses to release his college transcripts and thesis).
If the Republicans can really get their act together (always a big if), 2010 really could be a bloodbath for the Democratic Party, especially if Congress rams through some form of 'health care reform' and/or 'cap-and-trade'. ..bruce..

Posted by Steve Johnson at November 5, 2009 9:10 AMThis post must have been inspired by the anniversary of "Sesame Street", which originally provided children with imaginary friends that even parents could find likable. Later the subtly adult backsides of the show's characters were scrubbed clean of reality and drowned in a hopey-changey rainbow hued gloss ... Cookie Monster no longer had a ferocious and human cookie obsession, but lukewarm love for veggies instead.
The children who were protected from consequences and rewarded for just being their immature, narcissistic and undisciplined little selves certainly find everything to love about Obama. Parent-funded liberal colleges and grant-funded "socially relevent" pastimes in hedonistic coastal cities made Obama worship inevitable.
The ultimate price, I fear, will be paid by us all.

Who is this 'we' white-boy? But that is a nifty line. I'm going to swipe that.
