The words “change” and “Jesus” are being tossed around in this election more than Lindsay Lohan was by those three Italian dudes last New Year’s Eve. I’m getting burned out hearing both the word change and the name Jesus, and I like them both.
And I’m not the only one, either.
I heard yesterday that Jesus himself has just filed a request to change his name to Jesse because he’s so tired of hearing it dropped and his quotes being ripped out of context by politicians who didn’t give him the time of day until the elections came around.
Hillary and Barack have been beating the change drum like a coked up Keith Moon, now haven’t they?
Yes, the electric Barack Obama is hip to change, ladies and gents. Heck, he’s even placarded “change” on his podium. And Brian Williams and some other NBC dweebs are simply giddy like a bunch of school girls over his charisma. Meow Williams. That’s pretty Will and Grace, Brian ol’ boy. Extremely rollerbladerish, if you know what I mean.
BO is putting it out to the people that he is change crazy! Why do some people think that this junior state senator with the middle name Hussein can bring the alteration our nation needs? Well, it’s because he’s a sharp and powerful speaker. Oh yeah? So is the Bose bass amp in my FJ Cruiser. I believe people also said the same thing about Jim Jones. I’m not certain. I’m going to google it right after I shoot my neighbor’s cat with a BB gun.
Hillary, the Left’s femme fatale, is also peddling the whole “it’s time for a cool change” spiel, to which I say, hahahahahahahahaha. That’s funny Hillary! What are you really going to do? C’mon now . . . be serious.
I know in this day of ParisHiltonitis words don’t really mean that much, but for some of us fastidious folks we’d like the various candidates and their groupies, especially on the left, to clearly define what they mean when they Frisbee a word into the political fray such as “change.”
When you say “change,” do you guys mean:
• That our kids can once again start their day at public school with a moment of silence to pray and not have an ACLU laced atheist scream verboten?
• That we make English the official language of the United States of America, forever ending the automated “press 1 for English” prompt? Is that what you’re talking about? Because if you are, I’m cool with that.
• That we shrink our bloated government down like Star Jones after she had her paunch gut stapled?
• That we never have the reality of al Qaeda wanting to al-Kill Us scrubbed from our nation’s mind?
• That we realize that negotiating with demented terrorists is an exercise in futility?• That we make certain our military continues to be the most fearsome force on the face of the earth?
• That we bring about a single tax rate for everyone, with standard exemptions for each adult, married couple, and child dependant?
• That we drill our coasts for oil and thereby start the weaning process off the Middle East’s oil teat?
• That we build nuclear power plants to cut carbon emissions and reduce dependence on foreign oil?
• That we seal up our borders which now have bigger holes than the one’s in Rosie O’Donnell’s stockings after she tried to high step a barbed wire fence?
• That we, as a people, become anti-abortion? (As I am pretty certain that the voiceless baby inside its “inconvenienced” mother’s womb that’s in line to have its skull crushed would sure appreciate such a “change”).
• That we disallow Christianity to be deleted from the public square and allow—even cheer on—the influence of Judeo-Christian principles in our government, our educational systems and within our culture? If yes, bring on the change, baby!
• That we make the homosexuals who feel the need to have a public freak festival such as the Folsom Street Fair do that crap in private, like at Elton John’s house, verses a public street?
• That we end forever the insane idea of sanctuary cities for illegal aliens?
• That we don’t go anywhere near erecting some Nanny state which tells us what we can eat, or drink, or smoke, or what kind/how many guns we can own, or if we can spank our kids or not?
If the above is what you’re talking about, then let the revolution begin! If not, I don’t care who you are, how charismatic you come off, whether or not you’re TV friendly, or have the pathos of Oprah and the oratory skills of Demosthenes, hell would freeze over before you’d get my vote.
Americans in both parties believe we need change. No doubt if Barack or Hillary get into power they will change things—but it won’t be for the better. I believe they’ll take our nation’s current stinky diaper that woefully needs changing and replace it with an even fouler one.

This sentence may be true but if it comes down to Barack Obama and hilllereee...we will be better off with Barack. No way should a clintin ever be in the grand White House again. That’s like putting day old fish on a beautiful, antique serving platter.
I agree with you re: Hillary, but disagree with you re: Obama
He actually scares me more than Hillary.
On the other hand, maybe not. Hillary lacks the 'charm' of a Bill or an Obama, so there is a greater chance with Hillary that the public schooled, mass media 'informed', sheeple of this great nation would awaken from their sleep with a scream of terror in the night, and get a bleeping clue.
Fortunately, there will be someone else on the ballot in November.
Other powerful speakers who could deliver the standard Obama stump speech
Vladimer Lenin
Adolph Hitler
Rev Martin Luther King
Mahatmas Gandhi
Etc...
That’s how much the guy actually says.
” Barack Obama is a Powerful Speaker - And so is My Bose Bass Amp”
What is that, code speak for lower end frequency? Is the author trying to associate bass with black or low end? Or maybe he’s trying to say Obama isn’t articulate in the mid to tweeter range? Who are the tweeters anyway?

I’d say that the Tweeter here is the Breck Girl...
Yet we elected him twice. I voted for him twice. And I'm glad too, because even though he has gone off the deep end on immigration, spending and numerous other issues lately, he was the Right Man for the Times. Algore would've been worse.
So it doesn't require a brilliant public speaker to be electable. The left, IMHO, is so Bush-deranged and convinced (wrongly) that our whole country has died and gone to BusHell that they seize on the word "change" like it was salvation.
Change! It can mean a lot of things. Change from having Bush and Cheney and the neocons in power, change from sending American troops to war, change from what they see as corporate pig bastards making "unfair" money. Change to the left doesn't mean anything the author of this article mentioned. Far from it; change will mean the utter leftism and Godlessness of America, the "repairing of our image in the world" (with who? socialists? islamists?). Change.
I fear that either Hillary or Obama will soon be President. The Democrats will still be in power in the Senate and the House. Change.
We must fight their change. Fight it however we can, wherever we can. There are millions of us. Change. We need to adopt the Obama battle mantra; "fired up, ready to go!". "Yes, we can!". The left has the mojo right now. We better have our mojo up too. Change.
When you say “change,” do you guys mean:
Obama uses “unbalanced economy”, obviously making up terms, doesn’t have a clue about economics, so we’ll most all laugh when he explains his ‘change’, except the un-productive, that’ll believe they can decide how much they get paid, and leave the employer whatever is left over.
Or the welfare/grant/subsidy recipient who will believe they can take whatever they want, and the Tax Payers will just have to get by on less.
Obama is a powerful speaker, and so was Hitler.
The muslim marketing machine continues to cover this eary, sniveling, warmed-over marxist pushed a system proven to enslave and fail.
Good article.
great nation would awaken from their sleep with a scream of terror in the night, and get a bleeping clue.
Fortunately, there will be someone else on the ballot in November.
I hope you are correct. Anyone is better than the socialist hilllereee.
well obama for me definitely over hilllereee.
He would not lead it in war. He would instead be a snivling cowardly wimp and try to talk them to death.
