(confirmation, Google "London Daily Mail Obama's Victory") Obama's
Victory--A British view
A victory for the hysterical Oprah Winfrey, the mad racist
preacherJeremiah 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!
