Wow indeed. What an awesome commentary. The only thing I would take issue with is the idea that the Democratic Party is going to save us from the Bush junta. They haven't even started the investigations into the war that they promised to begin once they took control of the Congress. They just gave Bush all the war funds he asked for and didn't even make any demands.

Well, Olbermann doesn't quite get that the "Bush Junta" was a bipartisan effort. Still, I don't quite know what to make of Obama. The Jews don't like him, Clinton's party hacks don't like him, he appears to be setting up his own organization in the Dem party and knocking the old PTB in that party to the sidelines...
Sure, he's taken on Brzezinski, and that's a horrible thing, but he also seems to be taking a very different tack from the usual party hacks the Dems put up. This guy is really something to watch.
I guess it's all in the eyes of the beholder. You see something I don't see. I see a guy doing nothing more than offering the same old "government is the answer to all our problems" song and dance. He's just wrapped the message differently.

Well, I think what I'm seeing (and I'm not sure, yet) is a very savvy politician using superior organizing skills and some really crafty wordsmithing, and some really clever behind the scenes maneuvers. And what I think he's doing with these maneuvers is systematically dismantling and/or replacing the obsolete parts of the Democratic machine, and putting himself in charge of the various parts of it.
If he wins in November using this strategy we may have a president who has pretty much done it on his own; or at least done it using an independent political organization beholden to nobody but Barack Obama and vice versa. He will have pretty much dismantled the forces within the Democratic party that could seriously oppose/control him. In other words, he'll be a relatively independent executive stepping into the awesome suite of expanded powers that the Bush Junta leaves behind.
I think they're gonna shoot him before they let that happen.
I think that's what the two party fraud WANTS you to see. I think it's all a game to scare white Americans into voting for McCain.

He forgot to call Bush "Caligula's retarded brother", so I will: Bush is Caligula's retarded brother. ;-)
