I claim no credit for writing this... I didn't. I got it via a friend.
-----------------------------------------------------------------



And it came to pass in the Age of Insanity that the people of the land
Called America , having lost their morals, their initiative, and their
Will to defend their liberties, chose as their Supreme Leader that
Person known as "The One."



He emerged from the vapors with a message that had no meaning; but He
Hypnotized the people telling them, "I am sent to save you." My lack
Of experience, my questionable ethics, my monstrous ego, and my
Association with evil doers are of no consequence. I shall save you
With Hope and Change. Go, therefore, and proclaim throughout the
Land that he who proceeded me is evil, that he has defiled the nation,
And that all he has built must be destroyed. And the people rejoiced,
For even though they knew not what "The One" would do, he had promised
That it was good; and they believed. And "The One" said " We live in
The greatest country in the world. Help me change everything about it!"
And the people said, "Hallelujah! Change is good!"
Then He said, "We are going to tax the rich fat-cats." And the
People said "Sock it to them!" "And redistribute their wealth." And
The people said, "Show us the money!" And then he said, "
Redistribution of wealth is good for everybody.."



And Joe the plumber asked, " Are you kidding me? You're going to
Steal my money and give it to the deadbeats??" And "The One"
Ridiculed and taunted him, and Joe's personal records were hacked and publicized.
One lone reporter asked, "Isn't that Marxist policy?" And she was
Banished from the Kingdom's press corps ".



Then a citizen asked, "With no foreign relations experience and
Having zero military experience or knowledge, how will you deal with
Radical terrorists?" And " And " said, "Simple. I shall sit with
Them and talk with them and show them how nice we really are; and they
Will forget that they ever wanted to kill us all!" said, "Hallelujah! We are safe at last, and we can beat our weapons
Into free cars for the people!"



Then " And the people
Said, " said "I shall give 95% of you lower taxes."



Then "But 40% of us don't pay ANY taxes." So " said "
Said, "Then I shall give you some of the taxes the fat-cats pay!" And one,
lone voice said, "Hallelujah! Show us the money!"

Then " So " said, "I shall tax your Capital Gains when you sell
Your homes!"
said, "I shall mandate employer-funded health care
For every worker and raise the minimum wage. And I shall give every
Person unlimited healthcare and medicine and transportation to the
Clinics."
And the people said, "Give me some of that!"

Then "I shall penalize employers who ship jobs overseas." said, "Where's my rebate check?"



Then " And the people yawned and the slumping housing market
collapsed. And He said. " said, "I shall bankrupt the coal industry and
Electricity rates will skyrocket!" And the people said, "Coal is
Dirty, coal is evil, no more coal! But we don't care for that part
About higher electric rates." So "
Then he said, " said, Not to worry. If
Your rebate isn't enough to cover your expenses, we shall bail you out.
Just sign up with the ACORN and your troubles are over!"

Then He said, "
And the people said, " And
The people said, "



Then " and they made him king!


And so it came to pass that employers, facing spiraling costs and
Ever-higher taxes, raised their prices and laid off workers. Others
Simply gave up and went out of business and the economy sank like unto
A rock dropped from a cliff.
The banking industry was destroyed. Manufacturing slowed to a
Crawl. And more of the people were without a means of support.



Then " said, " said, " And the people said, "the Chosen One" So " But our foreign trading partners said unto Him. "Wait a
Minute. Your dollar is not worth a pile of camel dung! You will have
To pay more... And " said, Not to worry. If
your rebate isn't enough to cover your expenses, we shall bail you out.
Just sign up with the ACORN and your troubles are over!" said, "Wait a minute. That is
Not fair! "Illegal immigrants feel scorned and slighted. Let's
grant them amnesty, Social Security, free education, free lunches,
free medical care, bi-lingual signs and guaranteed housing..."Neither are these other idiotic
Programs you have embraced. Lo, you have become a Socialist state and
A second-rate power. Now you shall play by our rules!"Hallelujah!"Alas, alas! What have we done?" But yea
Verily, it was too late. The people set upon The One and spat upon
Him and stoned him, and his name was dung. And the once mighty nation
Was no more; and the once proud people were without sustenance or
Shelter or hope. And the Change "The One" had given them was as like
Unto a poison that had destroyed them and like a whirlwind that
Consumed all that they had built.

And the people beat their chests in despair and cried out in anguish,
"give us back our nation and our pride and our hope! " But it was too
Late, and their homeland was no more.

You may think this a fairy tale, but it's not.
It's happening RIGHT NOW

Hello smootho:

Yeah, well "The One" just knocked off our worst enemy. Bush couldn't do that. All he could do was spend us into oblivion...

Bush left officw with a 180 BILLION dollar deficit... Obama has ramped that up to a 4.5 TRILLION dollar Deficit and its escalating rapidly.

And that's assuming OBL was really killed and its not just something the Obammies dreamed up to pump up his plummeting approval ratings.


IT OBL turns up in a video next month referencing a news event after today... we will know its another Obama lie.

Boys don't get into one of those contests BO gets the prize and Bush the booby prize after all he got the booby (Saddam). This will do a lot for BO's standing, one election promise he actually kept. It does a great deal to justify the Peace Prize or have we all conveniently forgotten that? Perhaps they will give him a second or does he have to knock off the dodo to get that

Well, getting the Nobel Peace prize is equal to getting a notification you MAY have won the Publishers Clearing house sweepstakes.

Nobody with two functioning brain cells will ever view the Nobel as a real prize of any merit ever again.

Yeah right but what I know is I haven't got one so he didn't deserve it but he has acted

[galveston]

Sorry EX. Wrong on both counts (as usual?) Much bigger debts under Obama, and just where did that intelligence come from that led to Bin Laden? Why the chain goes back to enhanced interrogation, a la Bush. Doesn't that just chap you? Yup! I'm back and I do appreciate the large target that you sometimes provide.

Hello gal:

How you been? Although he's not a guy I quote often, John McCain, a person who actually HAS been tortured, says it doesn't work. I believe him.
