The New York Times today offers a front page story
concerning Barack Obama’s ill advised decision, a most illustrative example of
Barack’s ego driven, self centered bad judgment,” to run against U.S.
Representative Bobby Rush. Those of you who read ThinLine already knew about
this political disaster and one in a series of Barack betrayals.
The story is disturbing.
It presents a very clear picture of a person with whom, if not for his
pleasing appearance and inspiring speaking cadence, you would not want to have
lunch. Congressman Rush once said of
Barack: “He went to Harvard to become an educated fool.”
But the most disturbing discussion is the genesis of all
this “hope” talk. After the voters in Rush’s Congressional District saw Obama
for the empty handed opportunist that he was and is and sent Barack politically
packing with Rush stomping him taking 70% of the vote, Barack knew he had to
come up with a more appealing way to peddle his snake oil.
Enter: hope.
Mr. Shomon said,
“There was a gradual progression of Barack Obama from thoughtful, earnest
policy wonk/civil rights lawyer/constitutional law expert to Barack Obama the
politician, the inspirer, the speaker.” Denny Jacobs, a friend of Mr. Obama and
a former state senator, agreed. “He stumbled on the fact that instead of
running on all the issues, quote unquote, that hope is the real key,” he said.
“Not only the black community but less privileged people are looking for that
hope. You don’t
have to talk about health care, you have to talk about ‘the promise’ of health
care. Hope is a pretty inclusive word. I think he is very good at selling that.
“Hope” is, for Barack, the political equivalent of Homer
Simpson’s “all you can eat.”
ASK OBAMA TO STAY IN
