From Rachel Lucas comes the Video of the Day. This is a little flashback. We're going to take you back to 2004, when Barack Obama had just won the Illinois senate seat, and was asked about why he was not interested in running for President.
Snortworthiest line:
You know, I am a believer in knowing what you're doing when you apply for a job.
The answer is obviously 'yes'. He's a salesman, and he's selling the rhetoric of the imagination - a wish in one hand and s**t in the other. This demagogue illusion is most potent when ignorance and dependence is expertly exploited. And people let him - no! swoon for him - to do so.
Be afraid. Be very afraid. Not of the obamanator, but the mass of sheeple who ache to enchanted by this man. Their name is legion.

But that was 2004, way back when he didn't realize he WAS The Messiah, and needed to save our souls.

Hollywood and Soris kicked in too much dough. He had no choice. In addition, he has never been challenge for an office yet. Should be fun.
