When I accidentally posted an html coded version of an earlier op-ed, a couple of folks expressed a thanx since they could so easily and quickly drag and copy segments to paste on threads on the Internet. These op-eds need no attribution, so use whatever you find worthy as tools in political warfare:

Another FreeRepublic Op-ed For the political season (#5 in a
series)</
P></B></FONT>
<P>This Op-ed is not about Barack Obama, not directly anyway. It is about the
David Axelrod construct Americans are being fed, named Barack Hussein Obama, or
as Rush Limbaugh has named him Barry H. Obamessiah.</P>
<P>First, I was astonished at how well Rick Warren in the Saddleback Church
venue opened up two men for all the world to see. That leads to a second, deeper
observation. </P>
<P>There is a phenomenon, well defined in human Psychology, called projection.
It is the phenomenon responsible for &#145;love at first sight&#146;. and &#145;falling in
love&#146;. David Axelrod, Barack Obama's professional people manipulator/creator and
handler has sought to fabricate a vagueness screen upon which voters can project
what they think they want in a leader. Rick Warren removed the 'vagueness' to
reveal some of the &#145;actual&#146; under the veil of vagueness Axelrod has skillfully
fabricated. </P>
<P>What Rick Warren did so naturally is precisely what a skilled Pastor does
with his congregants in his non-pulpit time: a Pastor deals with real human
nature he is able to expose via personalize questioning. Through Rick Warren&#146;s
skill, Obama was left exposed for the secular Marxist he is, which is maddening
to those who have so embraced their own projections onto the vagueness screen of
Axelrod's constructing. </P>
<P>Once a good dose of reality settles upon the &#145;other&#145; at whom projection is
aimed, Obama will not even get the moderate votes. Barack Obama is first a
carefully constructed duality of non-person and Nietzschian uberperson, hiding a
supporter of abortion on demand, a Marxist lusting after wealth redistribution
through heavy taxation and government dole, and a man uncomfortable with
America's status as world leader improving human conditions through a capitalist
approach protected by a strong, modern standing military.</P>
<P></P>
<P>In simpler terms, Rick Warren exposed the real Barack Obama, and that
exposure shattered the false image Axelrod has encouraged people to fabricate
personally in their yearning minds. Poll numbers confrim the shattered vagueness
screen. </P>
<P>Put another way, Warren popped Axelrod's fancy balloon, revealing the real
Obama who is not so pretty for conservatives and moderates to confront. We are
witnessing a real life &#146;Being There&#146; [<I>the Peter Sellers movie, for those in
Rush&#146;s Rio Linda</I>] with the difference being that our Chauncey Gardner is
smart, masters a teleprompter, and has a deep lust for power.</P>
<P></P>
<P>What Rick Warren did inadvertently for McCain was expose the human side of a
man perhaps ready to lead, and lead not by the wet finger in the wind
methodology the media and pollsters have insisted is 'the American way', but
lead by relying upon his internalized values, the values Rick Warren exposed for
us during that golden hour.</P>
<P></P>
<P>I was genuinely surprised and pleased with Rick Warren's masterful work in
that venue. America can be the better for such an effort. And now that Barry
Soetoro has added Gaffestar, Joe Biden, to his ticket, reality will relentlessly
grind down David Axelrod&#146;s vagueness veil constructed for living in fantasy
relationship with a dangerous empty suit.

Bump for later reading. Rick Warren should give up preaching and host Meet The Press.

Kudos on your fine postings. The use of “Being There” in the title is right on target. That is in my Top Five of films ever made.

Well said.

Perhaps more simply, he is a Leninist, as per this comment by wretchard (Richard Fernandez) at the Belmont Club the other day:

How do you combat this kind of ignorance?

You provide links and let people judge for themselves. Personally I have no beef with a Marxist running for President, so long as he’s not so much a Marxist that he denies he is one. That’s a short definition of Leninism BTW. Marxism is a belief. Leninism is the method of conspiracy. CS Lewis said, the Devil’s best trick is to persuade you that he does not exist.

The neatest trick of the Leninist is to regard being called a Marxist a calumny. Once past that stage, he descends into a world of code. Everyone can read the code, but if you decipher the code and call him a Marxist, you are a bigot. They have specially coded religions which are really atheisms which are empty of any religious content but their own worship of power; special versions of Democracy in which free speech is not allowed.

The real offense of a Leninist is not belief, but deceit. Their ideas are secondary. Their game is about power and in pursuit of that dishonesty, scheming and outright contempt for their audience is par for the course. Leninism is to politics what scams are to commerce. Ayers is a scammer in my opinion. You may draw your own conclusions about Obama.

Journalism is a perspective which promotes itself as the embodiment of the public interest. But the rules of journalism - "Man Bites Dog," "If it bleeds it leads," and "Always make your deadline" - are calculated to interest the public, and do not commend themselves to anyone aspiring to promote the public interest. Journalism is self promotion, and criticism/second guessing of people who work to a bottom line of accomplishment and therefore must make concrete decisions and live with the results. That is exactly what Theodore Roosevelt rejected when he said, "It is not the critic who counts . . . the credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena . . ."

Consequently when journalists question candidates they are systematically t promote a perspective which naturally puts conservatives on the defensive. A pastor's questions would be expected to show everyone in a fair light - with the result that "liberal" candidates lose protection which they are used to and have adapted themselves to. Liberal candidates have never had to learn how to prosper without that, and it should not surprise if they don't look good in that (all too rare) circumstance.

I think the article is spot on about people projecting their dreams and hopes onto this empty vessel that is too accomodating named B.H. Obama.
