This CNN story suggests that maybe there is a place for Barack Obama on the world’s political stage, a place for him to “seize the moment” and try out some of his risky ideas in an effort to save women and children — a place that has far less to lose than the United States of America.
The people of Kenya could use a guy like Barack Obama. With his family and political ties to Kenyan Prime Minister Raila Odinga, he should fit right in. And if he goes, he can take Texas CPS with him. Because they need CPS far more in Kenya than they do in the United States. And before any Obama supporter starts to shout “lies,” show us the money. Point out a single material misrepresentation in any of the linked posts — and show us where Obama has denied it — and I’ll buy you a drink the next time I’m in town.

Ok, by this point, anyone who denies Obama’s loony links to his African cousin, his 20-year romance with his black supremacist pastor, or who denies his vast range of links to serious Marxists is in, well, denial, and honey, as they say, that ain’t a river in Egypt. But Kenya? Yeah, sure, they could use him in Kenya. A lot better than we can here.

Obama has been waiting anxiously for McCain to play the race card. Which McCain has utterly refused to do. But when McCain approved an ad comparing Obama’s adoring crowds and manipulated masses to the sort of shallow popularity of Britney Spears, et al, Obama thought his moment had arrived.
Rich Lowry comments at http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2008/08/obama_and_the_racism_card.html — worth the read. “Obama Lurches Off Course.”
What the adoration of Obama reminds me of, more than Britney, is old films of Hitler’s crowds. People swarming around a candidate like this is a disturbing sign. They are pursuing an illusion. In Berlin, it was “Obama, Obama, Obama!” How easily replaced by “Hitler, Hitler, Hitler!” Sorry if that sticks in the craw of Obamaniacs, but there it is.
