Illusion - a perception, as of visual stimuli (optical illusion), that represents what is perceived in a way different from the way it is in reality.

Obama ? make NO mistake about him… he is a typical politician. Obama’s proposed polished image that he is above Washington conventional politics and ?Change we all can believe in? has been up-ended by the details of Obama’a own many mis-steps in his campaign and his now much criticized controversial past.

Obama - who me, little ol' innocent me?

This upcoming 08′ U.S. Presidential election has become another god-awful miserable set of choices for President and the liberal Democrats will be to blame with all their cash hoping to prop up a bad and getting worse candidate by the day the more we know about Barak Obama.
There just are not enough young na?ve voters under 35 to elect Barack Obama President, and the baby boomers majority that now know the true adversity/audacity of Barak Obama turn their heads in shame and utter disgust. Obama has too many serious negatives for him to be Presidential. I, like many other moderate democat voters held out desperately for a democratic candidate to emerge from the pack of Democratic Presidential hopefuls to be America’s next GREAT leader (we really need one), ? to get away from the incompetent and selfish politics of the GOP that took this country deep into the abyss ? it just might take the next President the entire first 4 year term to turn the United States around where Americans can be proud again.

John McCain

 

This optimistic perspective towards America’s future almost automatically eliminates Ol’ 71 year old ?Mutt? McCain (John McBush), old enough to be to many of Obama supporters’ a ?GRANDFATHER?.

Mutt has proudly announced his unequivocal support for the continuation of many of the disastrous George W. Bush polices - including the Iraq occupation which is sucking all the precious money out of the U.S. Treasury, desperately needed for America’s domestic programs already sacrificed for the past 6 years. No matter how you try to spin it ? America needs to fix itself at home FIRST and FOREMOST (or Iraq won’t matter at all) ? health care for all U.S. citizens, a predicable and stable economy, address straightaway the impacts of globalization that include stable domestic jobs growth and an immigration plan that really works, but which includes human compassion ? all of which the NeoCon Republicans have never got it!

 


Lets take off the political gloves here and really examine what will take place in the general election if Obama and McCain end up squaring off. It begins with the loaded cannon Michelle Obama, who is only proud of America if her husband becomes President ? the essence of her egregious statement of February 18, 2008.

 

Michelle Obama

 

What many na?ve Obama supporters don’t seem to realize is that a Presidential candidate is not like everyone else and therefore can NOT make or have someone as close as a spouse make statements such as she has made, NO matter how convincing at the time, as todays U.S. President must have the unquestionable confidence of the other world heads of state in order to effectively lead the free world? something the incompetent George W. Bush never understood or was capable of ? being a dignified world leader, instead of the laughing stock of the frat kegger party.

Obama has certainly exhibited contempt and pure disdain for anyone who questions his motives - past or present, as exhibited at the most recent Presidential debates toward the moderators who brought up questions that the voters have expressed bewilderment over. NO serious Presidential contender can gin up enough rational justification or simply try to just shoo away as insignificant tough debate questions that they simply don’t like or which don’t bode well for them. There is No question Obama is a non-conformist towards most traditional American conventions with his close association of the likes of Pastor Jeremiah Wright (whose very racial diatribes rail against America’s traditional values), and who creates the very racial divide that Dr. Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy and countless others who worked relentlessly hard to remedy and resolve over 35 years ago and NOW gets undone by the very race (Jeremiah Wright), it sought to make equal. Is the current race equity remedy today perfect- probably not… just like many things, but the race equality situation has had mutual and wide spread support for decades- unlike Jeremiah Wright’s perspective of a race crisis.

Do you see any difference in the message or style of Dr Martin Luther King and Pastor Jeremiah Wright? Do you see a great percentage of Caucasians marching in support of Martin Luther King? Do you see any reason why the message of Jeremiah Wright is questioned to not be of conventional American values? Do you see any (even one supporter), Caucasian in the audience of Jeremiah White. You decide what your own definition of racism is between the two videos. Racism is defined on a very personal level.


Then there is William Ayers, who was once part of the violent Weather Underground group of the 60’s ? 70’s and who declared, “I don’t regret setting bombs,” and “I feel we didn’t do enough,” even while seeming to dissociate himself coyly from the group’s most destructive acts.

How this seems to slip past many of Obama’s young supporters may be that the Weather Underground acts of William Ayers took place before many were born or who at least were NOT old enough to be responsible enough to be interpreting significant public events or political acts and who now may be jeopardizing America’s safe and secure future by voting on the basis of coolness popularity and rehearsed style over complex and sometimes contradicting substance decision making.

How many Obama supporters even know what the Weather Underground Organization was or have taken the necessary time to research the background of this clandestine and violent group. Is this ?The Change we can believe in? ? Intelligent people have to ask this question repeatedly over and over again. This is not the America in which Presidential candidates with such a flagrant and controversial past such as Obama are even seriously considered to be Presidential contenders, much less have such extraordinary blind support of their proposed non-existent policies. The policies that are known of Obama that have been forwarded for public scrutiny and that have been validly criticized by experts are - the Iraq troop withdraw timetable of 60 days that is unrealistic and Obama’s makeshift universal health care plan that leaves out 15+ million Americans ? that is NOT universal ! No big deal - until YOU lose your job and have no health care coverage! The inadequate and unaffordable health care coverage of U.S. citizens is a travesty and must end now. America is NOT a kingdom of kings and sharecroppers!

Almost everything else about how Obama intends to govern the United States is a pure mystery to most Americans, as well as how and what Obama’s policies are to lead America back to prosperity - unbelievably scary and undoubtedly, one of the biggest insults to democrats trying to choose an honest leader. American needs so very much more than Obama’s misleading ?Change we can believe in? advertising slogan one uses to sells toothpaste.

New York Times’ columnist David Brooks had an astute observation recently on Meet The Press of Obama supporters making the association with themselves by choosing the Presidential candidate with little experience and therefore little baggage over the candidate that has years of public life (experience), that comes with more baggage ? Hillary. Transcript

Obama and Ayers both served together as board members of the Woods Fund, a Chicago-based charity that develops community groups to help the poor. Ayers joined the board in 1999 and is still on it. Obama left it in December 2002 after nine years on the Woods Fund Board. Obama’s association with William Ayers goes back to before 1995, not a casual or brief relationship that Obama has attempted to lead others to believe. In the mid-1990s, when Obama was making his first run for the Illinois Senate, it was William Ayers who had Obama to his home to introduce him to others. Then there was the corrupt Chicago developer Antoin Rezko who also became more than just acquainted with Barack Obama when he became the chief fund raiser for Obama’s initial political career in the Illinois Legislature. See previous Right & Wrong Journal post - ?Obama Should Fool NO One With His Tony Rezko Style Change?, here March 4th 08′

Then there was the Illinois Legislature voting record by Obama where he voted over 100 times present ? NOT Yeah or NAY. Only after Obama was finally pinned down directly into answering to his extraordinary ?PRESENT? vote did Obama sheepishly acknowledge that many Illinois Democrats did the same ridiculous thing. ?Change we can believe in? is one of the biggest modern day charades the public has been confronted with on a Presidential nomination level… even trumping ?Tricky Dick? Richard Nixon slippery slope political campaigns.

Most casual observers agree Obama shines best in a controlled theater environment such as eloquent, but, greatly glossed over grandiose speeches or projecting Harvard lawyering techniques which again sound extremely eloquent when NOT scrutinizing the spoken words while bringing the unsuspecting layman almost to their knees, but who has said little to next to nothing at all with respect to directly responding to the original subject at hand, much less answering the question with another question about an almost entirely different subject in 19 or more eloquent paragraphs, while trying to impress you like your wise grandfather did, when you were a child.

Obama jettisons Jeremiah Wright, his spiritual adviser of 20+ years like any disposable object after getting caught and then in a most uncanny and inconsiderate way for a friend ? just throw them away… meanwhile Obama hustled his book one last time.

My bet is when Obama defends his spiritual adviser of 20+ years Pastor Jeremiah Wright as an ex-marine ? if you NOW put Jeremiah Wright in a room of ex-marines ? they would literally destroy Wright without leaving a trace. Any bets ladies and gentleman? Obama has become totally out of his element of truthfulness and being the “change candidate” who is above typical scandalous politics - NOT!

No one is saying here that Barack Obama isn’t very intelligent and that he might have some decent moral beliefs ? but I am loudly proclaiming that Barak Obama is NOT the clinically moral politician above the conventional political fray who he has attempted to portray himself as ?The Change Candidate? in which he diabolically is NOT … and that glaring misrepresentation ought to be a sound reason to reject him as serious Presidential contender. This will be the snapshot of the general election against the Republicans this fall. There is a very valid reason Obama has been cast as ?SLICK? for his unique oratory that has become almost irresponsibly hypnotic to his followers.

Have we revisited the critical political weakness in which Barak Obama still can NOT close his political nomination over Hillary Clinton in the big critical swing states, despite out-spending her “three-to-one“. There is NO way you can spin the observation regarding the fact Hillary Clinton makes up for lack of campaign funding with unabashed political tenacity that might be exactly what her campaign has been about since the very beginning… and the inexperienced candidate Obama has stumbled time and time and time again trying to disprove it.

One last thought about super delegates ? ever wonder why there are still hold outs this late in the primary process where conventional thinkers believe it’s a slam-dunk for Obama. Apparently 325+ delegates, many of which are freshman congressman and senator super-delegates elected in closely contested races in 2004 still believe like I do - that it ain’t over yet? and they are waiting to absolutely pick the winner - so they have coat tails to hang onto ?down-ticket? come November. Think about it or are you a conventional thinker in an unconventional world with a make believe unconventional change candidate?
