Obama just expelled the German ambassador with promises that there was more to come in the name of vengeance for almighty Zion.

Isn't it ironic that all this time he was a stealth Jew?!

Actually, my wife explained it to me. Her committee in the Vast Jewish Conspiracy was responsible for selecting, programming, and getting elected a sleeper which would carry out the Jews' plans.

They called him The Meshuggener Candidate.

I actually think it's pretty exciting, and I mean that in a totally non-sarcastic way.

Even if only for today, I can suspend disbelief. My mind can come up with a plausible scenario that explains away all the doubts I've had about this guy, and I can start to feel some real optimism, tentative but genuine.

Obama quite literally has free reign over the country. The atmosphere around him is so euphoric, his popular support so overwhelming that nobody in Washington would survive opposing him until it wears off. In his first hundred days he could do anything. He could steamroll his own party if he wanted to - with utter impunity! He could cut the corporate tax to 10%. Or 2%. He could push through a flat tax while ashing his smokes in Nancy Pelosi's eye and she'd scramble to light the next one for him. He could sell Alaska for a snickers bar and Barney Frank would call it a hand-up to the candy industry.

Whatever he did, most of the democratic party would immediately conform to. Their platform would simply become whatever it was that he had done.

With the republicans utterly marginalized since Pelosi used the nuclear option and changed the rules of the house to disallow minority input without a vote last week, the stage is set.

This could go anywhere.

I'll probably be back tomorrow, but I'm going to spend today feeling like it's going to go somewhere better.

Nah. In 50 years history will remember him fondly as the President who poured billions of dollars into feeding people in Africa and other third world nations, pushed through measures to better education(the fact that they failed will be a footnote), overthrew Saddam Hussein, and stood fast during the worst attack ever conducted on American soil. Everything else that happened between those will slip through the cracks.

I mean, hell, look at FDR. He's remembered as one of our better Presidents by people who don't study history, even though he extended the Great Depression by a decade and threw over one hundred thousand American citizens into war camps(where upon their release they discovered the Government had siezed and sold a lot of their properties, leaving them with nothing) and held onto his power for so long that the constitution was amended less than five years after he died to limit terms so no other President could serve as long as he did.

A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent.

Just to fuel Maradon!'s worst nightmares, an article in Le Monde has Ségolène Royal, former French Socialist Party chair and presidential candidate, claiming that her policies and political approach are what inspired Obama's successful campaign.

Delidgamond is... right.
"He lets the last Hungarian go, and he goes running. He waits until his wife and kids are in the ground and he goes after the rest of the mob. He kills their kids, he kills their wives, he kills their parents and their parents' friends. He burns down the houses they grew up in and the stores they work in, he kills people that owe them money. And like that he was gone. Underground. No one has ever seen him again. He becomes a myth, a spook story that criminals tell their kids at night. 'If you rat on your pop, Keyser Soze will get you.' And nobody really ever believes." - Roger 'Verbal' Kint, The Usual Suspects

Sounds a lot like she's trying to snag some of the limelight after her utterly failed french campaign.

Obama ran his campaign as a pro-business, reformist tax cutter. He ran to the right of McCain.

CNN reports that President Obama retook the oath of office to eliminate any unnecessary Wikipedia articles after the mix-up yesterday.

Good thing John Roberts will have four years before he has to give it again, so he can practice.
