Obama's Victory--A British View
A victory for the hysterical Oprah Winfrey,
the mad racist
preacher Jeremiah Wright, the US mainstream media who
abandoned any sense of
objectivity long ago, Europeans who despise America
largely because they depend
on her, comics who claim to be dangerous and fearless
but would not dare attack
genuinely powerful special interest groups. A victory
for Obama-worshippers
everywhere. A victory for the cult of the cult. *_A man
who has done little with
his life but has written about his achievements as if he
had found the cure for
cancer in between winning a marathon and building a
nuclear reactor with his
teeth._* Victory for style over substance, hyperbole
over history, rabble-raising
over reality.
A victory for Hollywood , the most
dysfunctional community in the
world. Victory for Streisand, Spielberg, Soros, Moore,
and Sarandon. Victory for
those who prefer welfare to will and interference to
independence. For those
who settle for group think and herd mentality rather
than those who fight for
individual initiative and the right to be out of step
with meager political
fashion.
Victory for a man who is no friend of
freedom. He and his people
have already stated that media has to be controlled so
as to be balanced,
without realizing the extraordinary irony within that
statement. Like most
liberal zealots, the Obama worshippers constantly speak
of Fox and Limbaugh,
when the vast bulk of television stations and newspapers
are drastically liberal
and anti-conservative. Senior Democrat Chuck Schumer
said that just as
pornography should be censored, so should talk radio. In
other words, one of the
few free and open means of popular expression may well
be cornered and beaten by
bullies who even in triumph cannot tolerate any
criticism and opposition. A
victory for those who believe the state is better
qualified to raise children
than the family, for those who prefer teachers' unions
to teaching and for
those who are naively convinced that if the West is
sufficiently weak towards
its enemies, war and terror will dissolve as quickly as
the tears on the face of
a leftist celebrity. A victory for social democracy even
after most of Europe
has come to the painful conclusion that social democracy
leads to mediocrity,
failure, unemployment, inflation, higher taxes and
economic stagnation. A
victory for intrusive lawyers, banal sentimentalists,
social extremists and
urban snobs.
Congratulations America ! God Help Us !!
