Seriously, there's literally no evidence that the media is in the tank for Obama. Stop being paranoid.

By Leon H Wolf

Ladies and gentlemen, according to the AP, the world has welcomed an Obama win.

The world.

What's the basis for this? Well, uh, for one thing, he is black and has childhood friends in Asia. For another he, he, well, he puts sentences together into paragraphs! And he, he, he was an average third grade student (a man of the people!). And he's, he's, like a mixture of MLK and JFK (who were like Christ, only cooler and had more women)! And how do we know these things? Because an AP reporter has found an assortment of random foreigners saying these things, that's how.

If you can make it through this entire piece without getting physically ill, you're a better person than I am. And don't even suspect that this is the worst piece of hagiography we'll see from a major news media outlet this election season: we're in for a long, hard slog over the next five months, and it's going to fall to us to try and inject some objectivity in our communities and workplaces. Get ready, and brace yourselves.

*For the benefit of our lefties, I'm quoting Rev. 5:9.

No, really: I have the perfect place in the living room for it.

In fact, I don't know how I ever got through life without a painting of Obama ejaculating roses:

Image (both the actual physical one, and the unfortunate mental one) via Slog (note the post title; see also the attached endorsement, which is... weird, somehow). See also Hot Air, who has simultaneously a: rather good video lampooning the lameness that is the latte Obama fanboi (see also Ben Smith); and a link to Andrew Sullivan telling people to calm down. Given that the artist probably spent a good five minutes trying to decide whether to paint a horn on the happy white horsey's head, this is probably too little, too late.

And no, we do not believe it when we're told that this was meant to be ironic. This is pretty consistent with the existing idolatry.

PS: No, sorry, hate to say this, but you Obama supporters really are this lame. How lame? Well, let me put to you this way: have you ever made a crack about fundies?

Yeah, well, you should probably stop making those.

Obasm Threat Level Reaches "Orange"

By Dan McLaughlin

In Sunday's paper, Mary Mitchell of the Chicago Sun-Times entered "if John Kerry is elected, Christopher Reeve will walk again" territory:

If you're wondering why Sen. Barack Obama's message of hope has resonated with so many voters across the country, consider the shooting rampage at Northern Illinois University.

Why are people walking around armed to the teeth?

The only reason I can think of is that too many people have lost hope.

And a bigot to boot...apparently...but I am against Barack Obama for President (and Hillary Clinton too), and it's not because of their "Black-ness" or "Female-ness"...it's because they are WRONG - wrong for America, and wrong for the people they claim to fight for.

In my intentionally inflammatory rant about Frank Rich, I decided to throw a few race cards on parallel with those of Mr. Rich's level of ridiculousness when he suggested that the GOP had been reduced to nothing more than the "Grand Old White Party." I had a problem with the idea that a white man who came of age in Washington DC BEFORE desegregation and busing, and had moved to Harvard right BEFORE the MLK assassination and the ensuing riots and carnage wrought by ALL colors on our fair Nation's Capitol back in April 1968, would presume to suggest that being a Republican was somehow (by nuance, implication, and innuendo) the same as being a white supremacist male or some such nonsense. Worse, he presumes some expertise in the area of Black-White relations from the vantage point of a political party instead of one who lived with or grew up with black people (or any OTHER minority for that matter). Yeah, I ticked quite a few people off when I spoke even a little bit about any "positives" that might be gleaned from the pre-Civil war South...and whoo-boy did I fire up some folks.

GOOD.

Let's consider the Democrats regarding several pertinent areas of their elitist supremacy and minority exploitation, m'kay? I'm feeling the need for a little more hate to be thrown my way.

More below the fold...
