Obama's Suckers
The American Thinker ^ | January 23, 2010 | James Lewis

Obama's formula for suckering white folks: Don't make any sudden moves.

This was usually an effective tactic, because (white) people were satisfied as long as you were courteous and smiled and made no sudden moves. They were more than satisfied; they were relieved -- such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn't seem angry all the time.

Bill Clinton often used the actor's trick of suddenly dropping his voice low on TV so you had to listen carefully. This way, you felt drawn into his voice. It's like those kissing-distance close-ups the TV people like to do for the big rock stars of the Left. On television, Bill's seductive act worked magic with millions of women and gays -- that sudden, lip-biting, voice-cracking Arkansas drawl: "I kay foh yuh, bayyby." If you've been watching Obama this week, you've seen him imitating Clinton imitating Elvis chasing Ann-Margaret.

I had a friend who shook hands with Clinton for about ten seconds at a big airport in 1992. It was a mystical apotheosis for my friend, but probably not for The Great Pretender himself. When I told my friend that Clinton was a cheat and a liar and a scammer, his answer was, "But he loved me." Yes, another teenybopper for Elvis.

Unfortunately, it’s inherent in some of us. However, some of us realize the folly of it all and retreat. Others are addicted to foolishness.

Hollywood incites millions of people to swoon and cry every day. It makes people idolize and women droll over Brad Pitt by the millions.

The Media knows its power over dull and feckless constituents. It wants millions more of them to affirm its importance, income, and ego.

The USA fought WWII, the Pacific front virtually single-handed, with a population of 187 million. It built P51's, battleships, tanks, liberty ships, atomic bombs,...

But we need millions more shallow clients to keep those Media buffoons in the chips. Plaster the airports, the junior highschools, the malls, the Mexican barrio's, let's keep the presses rolling.

The difference betweeen Clinton and Obama is the difference between a con man and a true beleiver. Clinton certainly loved being president and tricking the people, but deep down he knew liberalism was stupid. Obama doesn’t know that.
