Nice, coms.

These wankers are getting a fresh shot of energy from the Obama
madness. Aside from early opposition to the Iraq war, what is the
political content of this guy’s appeal? As far as I can tell, it’s
that he’s “post-political,” i.e., a “healer” who can “bring us
together” after the “divisiveness” of the W years. Well fuck that.
Fuck the healing. At best, this means conflicts will be papered over
in some tepidly centrist way; at worst, it means it’ll be cover for a
continuation of right-wing politics by other means. But the brainless
vacuum cleaner will be hoovering up the bucks for Barack Hussein
Obama in the coming months. The only good thing you can say about it
is that it knocks Hillary for a loop.
