Obama Overload

T-shirts. Pins. Yard signs. An OBAMA cable channel streaming Obama 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. And now...

The OBAMA Variety Show!

I wish. That would be so much more entertaining than an Obama-infomercial. Will he be selling knives? Or maybe spray on hair? Or a food dehydrator! The insiders tell me, Sen. Obama has fired David Axelrod as his campaign advisor, and hired none other than...

RON POPEIL!

Tonight, there will be a half-an-hour long infomercial featuring the greatest product of our 21st century! The Obamanizer 2001! (Crowd: oooohh, ahhhh!) Not only does this amazing innovation organize, and makes lots of changes, but also has the ability to bring in $639.2 million! We promise to eliminate poverty, provide college education for everyone, and world peace. You can begin ordering next Tuesday. Have your 401K's, tax stubs, and savings accounts ready! It will only cost you 3 easy payments of higher taxes, but keep in mind we are spreading the wealth. Your other 2 payments will provide this transformational product to those who can't afford it! I know you can't wait to get your hands on the Obamanizer 2001!

That is really funny! I came across this quote that is, in my opinion, the exact opposite of what Obama seems to stand for:

I Do Not Choose to Be a Common Man

It is my right to be uncommon—if I can.

I seek opportunity—not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me.

I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed.

I refuse to barter incentive for a dole. I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of utopia.

I will not trade freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout. I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat.

It is my heritage to stand erect, proud and unafraid; to think and act for myself, enjoy the benefit of my creations and to face the world boldly and say, “This I have done.”
