British Editorial on Obama's Victory
Whether you agree with this article or not, you have to agree that
it is very cleverly written.
The Daily Mail ( UK ) wrote this editorial about Obama on
1/6/2009.
(Confirmation, Google " London Daily Mail Obama's Victory")
Obama's Victory--A British view
A victory for the hysterical Oprah Winfrey, the mad racist
preacher Jeremiah Wright, the US mainstream media who abandoned any
sense of objectivity long ago, Europeans who despise America largely
because they depend on her, comics who claim to be dangerous and
fearless but would not dare attack genuinely powerful special
interest groups. A victory for Obama-worshipers everywhere. A
victory for the cult of the cult. A man who has done little with
his life but has written about his achievements as if he had found
the cure for cancer in between winning a marathon and building a
nuclear reactor with his teeth. Victory for style over substance,
hyperbole over history, rabble-raising over reality...
A victory for Hollywood , the most dysfunctional community in the
world. Victory for Streisand, Spielberg, Soros, Moore, and Sarandon.
Victory for those who prefer welfare to will and interference to
independence. For those who settle for group think and herd
mentality rather than those who fight for individual initiative and
the right to be out of step with meager political fashion.
Victory for a man who is no friend of freedom. He and his people
have already stated that media has to be controlled so as to be
balanced, without realizing the extraordinary irony within that
statement. Like most liberal zealots, the Obama worshippers
constantly speak of Fox and Limbaugh, when the vast bulk of
television stations and newspapers are drastically liberal and anti-
conservative. Senior Democrat Chuck Schumer said that just as
pornography should be censored, so should talk radio. In other words,
one of the few free and open means of popular expression may well be
cornered and beaten by bullies who even in triumph cannot tolerate
any criticism and opposition.
A victory for those who believe the state is better qualified to
raise children than the family, for those who prefer teachers' unions
to teaching and for those who are naively convinced that if the
West is sufficiently weak towards its enemies, war and terror will
dissolve as quickly as the tears on the face of a leftist celebrity.
A victory for social democracy even after most of Europe has come
to the painful conclusion that social democracy leads to mediocrity,
failure, unemployment, inflation, higher taxes and economic
stagnation. A victory for intrusive lawyers, banal sentimentalists,
social extremists and urban snobs.
Congratulations America ! Your funeral will be sooner than you can
expect.
