Why I support Barack Obama for president [I'm an IDIOT]
J-Post ^ | 10.28.08 | Stuart Eizenstadt

Posted on 10/28/2008 6:53:49 PM PDT by swordfishtrombone

I have spent much of my adult life serving in our government to promote America's interests at home and abroad; I have made it a special calling to help Jews around the world, including Holocaust victims, and to strengthen the US-Israel relationship. It is with great pride that I support Senator Barack Obama to be our next president.

We are fortunate to have a youthful, brilliant, charismatic senator, whose vision is firmly planted in the 21st century, and whose best years are ahead of him, to help America meet the unparalleled challenges of a new era. He can get America back on the right track at home and abroad. The times and the person have come together for Obama.

We need fresh, new leadership and a clean break from the policies of the past eight years (many of which would be continued by Sen. John McCain) - at home to deal with the most serious economic crisis since the Great Depression; to restore America's competitive position by a new emphasis on innovation, science and technology; and to strengthen our middle class, which is struggling to make ends meet, by providing educational opportunities, universal health care, and tax cuts targeted to them, not to those who need it the least (which has been the focus of the Bush tax cuts McCain would make permanent).

Senator Obama would rebuild our crumbling infrastructure and launch a Manhattan-type alternative energy program to make our country independent of Middle Eastern oil within 10 years.

Youthful??? Only if you're over 50 (and I know where of I speak).

Brilliant??? Really? Can anyone list anything he's done that qualifies as 'brilliant'?

Charismatic??? Well, even a pile of sh*t will draw flies.

I love Cali too much... the “enlightened” Left can go bunk with Chavez and see how Socialism at the state-level really works.

Nnaive bastards don’t even deserve their own states on this soil.

Wow...the author quantifies his qualifications by stating that much of his adult life was spent serving in our government to promote America's interests at home and abroad; He made made it a special calling to help Jews around the world, including Holocaust victims, and to strengthen the US-Israel relationship.

But then he goes off and F's it up by telling the world that he's supporting Obama. As if that is going to offset any of the previous good (if it truly can be quantified that way) which he might have done.

This would be akin to somebody having spent years as a child advocate but then deciding to go join NAMBLA and start raping those whom they used to help. Of course, in order to completely emulate this idiot, a person would have to state all of their previous qualifications, because they would be after all, a big shot in the child advocacy world and their qualifications and past history would help justify their now current decision to practice sexual perversion.

At least that's the way I view it.

Just another freak groveling at the heals of the RATS, hoping to get a job or an invite to a cocktail party on the beltway. This election shows the yellow streak of many so-called conservatives, We are better off without these pieces of human debris.

This is typical of Obama supporters. All fluff and no substance. There is absolutely nothing in that paragraph that would make Obama worthy of anyone’s vote, with the exception of “brilliant.” And I see no evidence whatsoever that he is “brilliant” or even moderately competent.

The Obama technique is to throw around a lot of adjectives and mix in a few abstract nouns like hope and change. Stir it all together and you get something that sounds vaguely positive.

Don’t give out any specifics. Then no one can criticize you for it. When you do get criticized, deny that you said it. When they prove that you said it, deny that you meant it. When there is evidence that you meant it, say it doesn’t count because it was too long ago.

Hey, you know how we could give the middle class an even larger tax cut, Dems? Stop spending $3 f-ing trillion a year, mainly on your bogus sh*t.

I wish to serve in your campaign.

Does the author of this drivel think that Obama is the “messiah”? If he does, so does Farrakan. Are the Jewish people ready to imbrace a Moslem Messiah? Maybe the author is of Ishmael descent.

“I wish we could have all of the dammed liberals move to New York and California. They can have their socialist utopias in those states, and we can keep our nation the way it was meant to be for the rest of us.”

Well, maybe he can add that in, while he’s changing the Constitution.
