The Daily Mail (UK) wrote this editorial about Obama on 1/6/2009. (confirmation, Google "London Daily Mail Obama's Victory")
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 Europehas 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 !

Yup, we are very fortunate to have him.
ReplyDeleteOh what a powerful woman Oprah has become. And has done so by the extortion of the very people she relies upon for her wealth.
ReplyDeleteYes Oprah has biten the hands that feed her. I jusy hope that obama was a good lay. Cause she just traded our country for it.
Do you think that gossip rag, The Daily Mail, is trying to overcompensate for something? ROTFL!
ReplyDeleteThe Daily Times and National Enquirer all rolled into one.
Who were you guys able to vote out in the last election? How's that Queen thing workin' out for your crime rate?
ReplyDeleteOprah is by far the worst public fugure on earth. She is a hipocrit.
ReplyDeleteMichelle Obamas Maid of honor was Jesse Jacksons daughter, they are good friends. Now I am starting to figure our who pushed this guy through the system to aid in his election.....Oprah screwed Obama most likely to give him millions or maybe billions to campaign, and the almighty Jackson has been pushing him through for years...Other candidates or Presidents have had thier campaign funding and finances investigated, why hasn't anyone looked into Obamas dealings thus far. Obama shouldn't have to worry about taxes for awhile, look he appointed, they kinda got each others back you know!
The findings of such investigations will prove what a joke he is and millions of Obamaniacs would be let down and feel preyed upon.....He is a joke people!

ReplyDeleteWow Oprah and Jackson got Obama elected? Never would have thought about that.
Time to wake up now.
blah blah blah blah blah. for those who read all that: a victory for rhetoric without insight
ReplyDeleteWhy do we have to hear this from Britain? Because our liberal media wouldn't even consider printing something so TRUE! We are embarrassed as a country once again! Thanks Libs, we got exactly what we deserve!
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to pile on...just know this -I agree with most of what the opinion piece states, but we wanted change and we've got to wait and see what happens, he'll have 4 years to mess up, the decision has been made, we need to remember this when it comes time to vote again.
ReplyDelete1:33,
ReplyDeleteThere are those among us who do not "deserve" bho.
