Bloodthirsty Liberal

Will Obama’s supporters abandon him as it becomes clear that he’s used ‘em, abused ‘em, and refused ‘em—as he has all of his supporters and mentors over the years—or will they stay loyal, like Japanese soldiers in the Asian jungles after the war?

I say he’s got a long, long honeymoon, not least because to criticize him is to criticize a black man. And any black man not named Clarence Thomas is off limits to the political left. (Of course, any black man named Clarence Thomas is fair game for the most mean and hateful racial stereotypes of ignorance, shiftlessness, and uncontrollable sexual appetites.)

But some see love’s bloom fading sooner rather than later:

In the absence of William Shakespeare, I’ll have a whack at it myself:

Obamaland has no rage like love to hatred turned,

Nor hell a fury like a supporter scorned.

Oh, where to begin? Obamaland is proving to be such a target-rich environment.

Let’s start with Hillary, shall we? If there is a single, starry-eyed American who does not understand that the price of Bill and Hill on the stump for wet-behind-the-ears Barry O. was the cabinet post where Hill could most brightly shine and most aptly prepare for her own run in 2012 (or 2016), the Guinness Book folks would like to find him.

If Bill and Hillary Clinton are anything, they are perhaps the most astute political minds in the country today. The economic meltdown we are in had a foundation directly traceable to Bill Clinton’s modifications of the Community Reinvestment Act and both Clintons understand well that once an economy as large and diverse as ours spins out of control, there is no way a single president — even a two-term president — can bring it back to its pre-meltdown status.

If anything, I imagine that Hillary Clinton is quite thankful that she is off the hook on the economic disasters that wait like ticking bombs in the disillusioned minds of Obama’s maniacal voters.

Hell truly hath no fury like that awaiting Obama as he fails to eradicate the worries and responsibilities of his delusional followers. The woman made famous by her YouTube proclamation that, once Obama is elected, she will no longer need worry about putting gas in her car or paying her mortgage will perhaps be first to explode.

Then there is the “I’ll-fix-all-your-schools-with-gobs-more-money” Obamaland promise. Is there a single starry-eyed, literate parent out there who believes that catering to the teachers unions, who bear the brunt of responsibility for creating the problem, is actually going to fix it?

The first dent in Obama’s knightly education-fix-it armor is the fact that he and Michelle would rather walk over hot coals and don sackcloth and ashes than send their own daughters to one of the nation’s public schools. Of course, the excuse they’re offering now is the overarching “security concern” that goes with living in the White House.

However, what “security concern” was there in Chicago, when the Obamas were just another nothing-special couple having kids? Barack and Michelle have never trusted the public schools with their own children. The girls have always attended pricey private schools. They always have and they always will.

It’s worth remembering that there is no single pro-Obama stance: his electoral majority was composed of disparate cliques and claques, ranging from left-wing radicals to disaffected Republicans. Fracturing such a coalition wouldn’t be impossible.

But Obama’s smart. He’s running from his desert island supporters and appealing to the furthest reaches of his political realm. The lady who said she would never again have to worry about paying her mortgage will vote for him even from the homeless shelter—as will all the guilt-ridden white liberals I know.

And why not? If we gave George Bush two terms, Obama’s reelection should already be guaranteed, unless we’re racist, close-minded, shameful… etc., etc. ad nauseam.
