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 Europe has 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! Your funeral will be sooner than you think!

Much like the post a few days ago regarding the Russians, when did we start giving a crap about what the British think about us? Now the Right Wing cares about this sort of thing?

And hey, when is that waterboarding of Sean Hannity taking place? He said he would do it. He is a man of his word, right?

Whatever. Obama won the election. It makes me laugh that a Brit wants to tell us how to vote.

This is really funny, A Brit who liked us better under Bush. As a conservative, I agree with most of his sentiments, this country is going down the wrong path and the MSM is very happy to lead us on it, but you're right 2centz, I don't care what he thinks, it's just nice to know not all the Brits are fooled by the "Get Over It, Obama won" crowd. You're right Obama won, but that doesn't mean I can't express myself or we should let him run the deficit up further. Right now, Pelosi and Reid hold the reigns and Obama can make all the speeches he wants-fly back and forth in the face of environmental activists who don't care about the amount of carbon footprint he leaves or the fake global warming he's adding to- to keep the eyes on him while they do their dirty deals

Wow, and the Bushies told Dems to get over it. Geez, people, Obama won. Elections have consequences. As Jon Stewart said, "You lost. It's supposed to taste like a sh!t sandwich."

The only objective and informative news about Obama comes from the U.K., Canada or Australia. Notice how the Obamabots can't dispute any of the content, they can only shoot the messenger. Democrats are the only people entitled to Free Speech.

Obama, Michelle and Oprah are all a bunch af racists-they hate white people! Obamass is handing us over to the muslims because he's one. He is one of the worst things that ever happen to this country...the worst is that a bunch of stupid idiots voted him for him because he wanted CHANGE. We got change alright but not in your pockets like he promised you nutcases.

Actually if you ever get the chance-watch BBC World News-they are very fair and balanced.

7:30 and 7:47,

Do you not see the danger looming on the horizon? The United States is going to see and experience another shooting war Revolution / Civil War and the Government knows it's possible. Why do you think they want to control all the guns? They don't give a damn about street crime, they are worried about themselves.
