BARACK OBAMA. THE WORLDS FIRST POLITICAL BOY BAND

05/19/2008

Senator Obama can be the next New Kids on the Block, only with bigger teeth. A sort of New Edition without the trendy sunglasses. It occurred to me that Obama is a manufactured candidate. The media in their infinite bad taste decided Barack Obama was not only the next Democrat nominee but the latest fad of messianic proportions. A sort of pet rock who could walk on water and wear sandals.

There was a time Obama claimed he would not run for President. Then he released his second volume of paranoia and the media decided not only was the book on par with the Iliad but Obama will be the next President. After a few weeks of listening to Chris Mathews discuss his erotic dreams involving Senator Obama and the Lincoln Bedroom good old Barry knew a good thing when he saw it. This of course explains a lot. For the past quarter century boy bands have had as much substance as a Michael Moore film. Perhaps this is why every time Obama speaks his minions jump up and scream “No! That’s not what he meant. You’re taking him out of context”.

This makes a lot of sense. Only a politician lacking any real savvy would enter the campaign and not think small matters like a racist church and a terrorist drinking buddy would become major issues. I understand that politicians usually like to be vague but Obama’s platform is weak. Seriously weak. And I know super models that weigh more than his resume.

Yet like bad lyrics about the girl you once loved written by a songwriter from LA he continues to talk in vapid tones not seen since the last Democratic nominee.
