Obama Betrays His Master With A Kiss

AP, 18 March 2008: Democratic Sen. Barack Obama on Tuesday tried to stem damage from divisive comments delivered by his pastor, while bluntly addressing anger between blacks and whites in the most racially pointed speech yet of his presidential campaign.

Ha ha ha. . .nothing has revealed the essential counterfeit of Obama more than this hollow man’s *race* speech. . .

After attending for twenty years a church pastored by a real black man, a man not afraid to shine a light on Amerika’s darkness, Obama is forced by his own ambitions to repudiate his pastor. . .the spiritual father Obama claims led him to Christ.

I remember the integrity of Mel Gibson, when he was being raked over the coals during the absurd The Passion of the Christ controversy. . .Media dredged up alleged anti-semitic remarks from his Gibson’s 85-year-old father, and demanded Gibson repudiate them. . .the Aryan talking head Diane Sawyer demanded Gibson condemn his father in a nationally televised interview. . .but Gibson refused to cower before Media, he refused to betray his own father. . .

Now let us look at the mulatto who would be President. . .let us see what he is made of. Media has discovered his angry black pastor, an honest man named Jeremiah Wright who stated the obvious of the famous *9/11:*

We bombed Hiroshima, we bombed Nagasaki, and we nuked far more than the thousands in New York and the Pentagon, and we never batted an eye. We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, and now we are indignant because the stuff we have done overseas is now brought right back to our own front yards. America's chickens are coming home to roost.

There is no need to list all the supposed *controversial* remarks of Wright. . .they are only *controversial* to the sheeple. . .the sleep-walking *consumers* of Amerika, who have turned their ears and eyes from the sources of Amerika’s ill-gotten gains. . .the Amerikans’ queenly lifestyle has been extracted at great pain from the world’s poor. . .that an honest, plain-talking man like Jeremiah Wright is considered *controversial* only exposes the Amerikans’ collective denial.

Now Media chooses to bring Obama’s pastor to the attention of the sheeple. . .how does Obama react? Is he a man of intergrity, refusing to condemn his spiritual father? Does he instead demand Media focus on his own statements, his own career, his own campaign? After all, it is Obama who is running for President, not Jeremiah Wright. . .

Let us see how Obama reacts:

On the other end, we've heard my former pastor, Reverend Jeremiah Wright, use incendiary language to express views that have the potential not only to widen the racial divide, but views that denigrate both the greatness and the goodness of our nation; that rightly offend white and black alike.

I have already condemned, in unequivocal terms, the statements of Reverend Wright that have caused such controversy. For some, nagging questions remain. Did I know him to be an occasionally fierce critic of American domestic and foreign policy? Of course. Did I ever hear him make remarks that could be considered controversial while I sat in church? Yes. Did I strongly disagree with many of his political views? Absolutely - just as I'm sure many of you have heard remarks from your pastors, priests, or rabbis with which you strongly disagreed.

But the remarks that have caused this recent firestorm weren't simply controversial. They weren't simply a religious leader's effort to speak out against perceived injustice. Instead, they expressed a profoundly distorted view of this country - a view that sees white racism as endemic, and that elevates what is wrong with America above all that we know is right with America; a view that sees the conflicts in the Middle East as rooted primarily in the actions of stalwart allies like Israel, instead of emanating from the perverse and hateful ideologies of radical Islam.


No moral integrity from Obama. . .he buckles from Media’s assault. . .he condemns his pastor. . .and then he creates for himself a second problem: how to explain sitting in a church for twenty years pastored by a man he strongly disagrees with? He has to lie.

YOU see, only those who have already dipped their tin cups into the barrel of Obama Kool-Aid can believe Barack disagreed or disapproved of his pastor’s remarks. . .to believe otherwise about Obama means YOU believe he sat patiently in the pew of Wright’s church for twenty years, tolerating views he found offensive. . .even allowing his children to be baptized by a man of *profoundly distorted* views.

No, Obama is a liar. . .

And a coward. . .for note how Obama, the peddler of *Change,* in an attempt to calm the fears of brainwashed white *consumers* and ultra-zionists, preaches Amerika’s safest, most acceptable doctrine of hate: blaming the conflicts in the Middle East on the *perverse and hateful ideologies of radical Islam*. . .

This is *Change?* Sorry, this is only the continuation of the most base policies of Bush: *we are good, they are evil*. . .scapegoating the muslims.

Obama insists he will bring *Change*. . .but in truth, all that Obama can change is himself. In this most recent speech, we see Obama changing himself in mid-stream. Because his own psyche, the product of his own fragmented sense of identity, depends upon his belief that he can be all things to all people, he must also seek to appease black Amerika. . .he cannot merely throw his spiritual father to the white dogs. . .he knows this would provoke a backlash from black Amerikans. So Obama also says of Jeremiah Wright:

I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community. I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother - a woman who helped raise me, a woman who sacrificed again and again for me, a woman who loves me as much as she loves anything in this world, but a woman who once confessed her fear of black men who passed by her on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic stereotypes that made me cringe.

What a forked tongue! What a cynical, ugly appeal to the worst of human nature! He tells black Amerika he cannot disown his pastor, and for good measure, tosses them an old white woman to maul. . .his own grandmother!

Ha ha ha. . .apparently Obama never met a racist he didn’t love.

YOU read Obama’s entire speech, and YOU want to vomit. . .a work of craven dissembling, gutter pandering and ambitious appeasing. . .

The Messianic tendency has been noted in Obama, but in his simultaneous disclaiming and claiming of his pastor, Obama reveals his true tendency: like Judas, he betrays his master with a kiss. . .

Where's Travis Bickle When You Need Him?

Time, 7 February 2008: We are the ones we've been waiting for," Barack Obama said in yet another memorable election-night speech on Super-Confusing Tuesday. "We are the change that we seek." Waiting to hear what Obama has to say — win, lose or tie — has become the most anticipated event of any given primary night. The man's use of pronouns (never I), of inspirational language and of poetic meter — "WE are the CHANGE that we SEEK" — is unprecedented in recent memory. Yes, Ronald Reagan could give great set-piece speeches on grand occasions, and so could John F. Kennedy, but Obama's ability to toss one off, different each week, is simply breathtaking. His New Hampshire concession speech, with the refrain "Yes, We Can," was turned into a brilliant music video featuring an array of young, hip, talented and beautiful celebrities. The video, stark in black-and-white, raised an existential question for Democrats: How can you not be moved by this? How can you vote against the future?

And yet there was something just a wee bit creepy about the mass messianism — "We are the ones we've been waiting for" — of the Super Tuesday speech and the recent turn of the Obama campaign. "This time can be different because this campaign for the presidency of the United States of America is different. It's different not because of me. It's different because of you." That is not just maddeningly vague but also disingenuous: the campaign is entirely about Obama and his ability to inspire. Rather than focusing on any specific issue or cause — other than an amorphous desire for change — the message is becoming dangerously self-referential. The Obama campaign all too often is about how wonderful the Obama campaign is.


Ha ha ha. . .Media is discovering it has created a messianic monster in this Obama *character*:

And yet there was something just a wee bit creepy about the mass messianism. . .

Media has given Obama a free pass for months, now, refusing to expose his hollow campaign. . .they have enabled his messianism by reinforcing his self-proclamation that he is the agent for *change.*

Obama cannot be an authentic agent for *change* because he is not an authentic person. . .he is a *character*. . .he has assumed a role. . .in point of fact, he bears a striking resemblance to a particular fictional character: Senator Charles Palantine of Taxi Driver.

Our Obama character says: We are the ones we've been waiting for. . .

The Palantine character says: We are the people. . .

Ha ha ha. . .where is Travis Bickle, when you need him?

Anyway, what, exactly, is this Obama person going to change? Nobody knows. Media never asks. He anointed himself as the Spirit of Hope and Change, and Media preached it endlessly to the masses.

Now, a few in Media, begin to ask what this character is all about. . .too late. . .too late. . .the spell has been cast.

The key to understanding Obama’s *inspirational language,* which enchants a growing segment of the uncritical Amerikan sheeple, is knowing its origin lies in Obama’s own magickal thinking.

As we have detailed before, Obama, neither black nor white, a product of multiple fathers and cultures, has no solid core identity. . .he is a Zero. . .an empty space, waiting to be filled. . .therefore, he can be all things to all people. . .he speaks of himself as *we* because there is no single Obama, there is no *I*. . .his identity is shaped by those around him. . .he becomes the crowd. . .he merges with the crowd.

The magickal thinker believes in the interconnectedness of all things through special *powers* that transcend *physical reality*. . .symbols, or in the case of Obama, symbolic language (*hope* and *change*) has this *special power* to connect us. . .the magickal thinker believes there is an actual power or energy created by the bonding of symbol which can alter *physical reality.*

Thus, such a one as Obama can never articulate a specific plan for *change* because of his constant need to be at one with the crowd, with the masses. . .

The rich, the poor, the urban, the rural, the blacks, whites, browns and yellows, the literate, the illiterate, etc., etc., all want different *change*. . .

For Obama to adopt a genuine policy, a genuine course of action, he would have to offend portions of the masses. . .the symbol of *hope* becomes broken once the referent has been exposed. . .some would then turn away from Obama, and walk with him no more.

Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink His blood, ye have no life in you. Whoso eateth My flesh, and drinketh My blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. . .These things said He in the synagogue, as He taught in Capernaum. Many therefore of His disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it? When Jesus knew in Himself that His disciples murmured at it, He said unto them, Doth this offend you?. . .From that time many of His disciples went back, and walked no more with Him.

The hollow man, the Zero whose own identity depends on universal appeal, cannot risk alienating segments of the masses. . .if whites fall away, or the rural fall away, or the rich fall away, then parts of Obama himself fall away, also. . .his *we* becomes smaller. . .his confidence in his own *we-ness* is shaken. . .

Obama could never truly defend any principle or policy that did not have mass appeal. . .he could never take a truly divisive stand on immigration, for example, for whatever group felt victimized (whether it be poor brown skins or the paranoid white petit-bourgeoisie) would offer organized resistance. . .Obama’s fragile *we* psyche would crack. . .he would instantly offer some sort of appeasement (loftily labeled *democratic compromise*) to whatever special interest he had offended. . .Amerika would be forced to endure schizocracy, the rule by the schizophrenic. . .

Should Obama gain the Presidency, his magickal thinking would be massively assaulted by the concrete demands of the Office. . .it's one thing to play act on the campaign trail, it's quite another to actually have to become a functioning President. . .

Should Obama gain the Presidency, I make it even money he would have to resign from office due to mental incapacitation. . .

Obama: The Zero Of The Hour

I watched the Republican and Democrat debates Saturday night from New Hampshire. . .I can see why a certain segment of the sheeple herd are mesmerized by the half-white, half-black Obama. . .he's even more polished than Bill Clinton. . .as slick as old Slick Willie was, there was always the scent of the trailer park about him. . .he may have put on the airs of the *policy wonk,* but you knew, deep down, he was all about Big Macs and chasing skirt.

But beneath Obama's shiny telegenic surface is a totally antiseptic soul. . .neither white nor black, there is a strange emptiness about the man. . .

Here is a fellow who has had an unusual upbringing: the son of an African man and an Amerikan white woman. . .parents divorce soon after his birth. . .the mother then marries an Indonesian. . .Obama spends his formative years in Hawaii and Indonesia.

And yet despite his unordinary background, the only thing unordinary emanating from him is his extraordinary sterility.

In particular, Obama seems eager to cleanse his years in Indonesia. . .there was controversy earlier surrounding the predominantly muslim school Obama attended in Indonesia. . .certain of the Amerikan Right Wing Christo-Zionist-Nationalist Alliance (The Weekly Standard neocon crowd) tried to paint the blank canvas that is Obama with the *muslim fanatic* brush. . .for a man who peddles *Hope* and *Change* for his daily bread, you would think Obama would leap at the chance to exploit his diverse background. . .he could have said his experiences in the muslim world made him the perfect candidate to *change* the course of failed Amerikan foreign policy, that he had the first-hand knowledge of muslim culture which would allow him to deal more effectively with muslim leaders and thus he could offer the *hope* of being able to repair Amerika’s damaged image in the muslim world.

But in testily responding to the charge he was educated in a madrassa, Obama failed to take the opportunity to highlight his personal experience in the muslim world. . .instead, he chose to point out that prior to attending the predominantly muslim school in Indonesia, he had attended a catholic school (ha ha ha. . .a generation ago, he would have had to deny he was catholic, as well).

To truly be an agent of *change* and *hope,* one must be confident in one’s own identity. . .this provides the strength to face accusers. Had Obama had such strength, he would have said to the neocon nuts:

“Yes, I went to a muslim school. . .and I am proud of it. The experience made me a more well-rounded person. I have nothing to be ashamed of or apologize for.”

Instead, Obama, Identity Zero, cries the muslim school experience is insignificant (how preposterous!). . .and was nullified by his prior attendance at a catholic school (how illogical!).

Obama’s soul is like two magnets whose similar poles push against each other, creating an empty space in between. . .not surprisingly, he has therefore mastered the dark art of empty phraseology.

*Hope* and *change:* this is the incantation he uses to spellbind the weakest minds of the sheeple herd.

He promises the beaten-down sheeple Avalon, but when the Election Day mist clears, they will see they are still stuck in dreary, depressed Ypsilanti, MI, Covington, KY, East St. Louis, IL, etc., etc., wherever, with no coin to pay their massive debt. . .and no relief from war. For though Obama crows about his anti Iraq war stance, when one listens to this political robot speechify (as he did Saturday night) about *actionable intelligence* (one of the darkest verses of empty phraseology), one can have no doubt this Zero Man will toe the Christo-Zionist-Nationalist Alliance line.

Obama is a consummate fraud. . .he is so counterfeit, he makes the ambulance chasing *populist* John Edwards seem like Huey Long.

*Hope* and *Change,* *Hope* and *Change*. . .two little words delivered telegenically are all that are needed to bewitch a fatigued, hopeless herd of Amerikan sheeple.

With Obama, the Zero of the Hour, the two words will push against each other, and never connect. . .
