More Obamarama
There are a few key indicators to know when an idea that is being presented to you is not only wrong, but spectacularly so. Things like buying investor shares in a company run by your neighbor’s cousin and his parole officer whose business plan is written on a recycled Denny’s menu. Or listening when a felonious exile mentions how easy an invasion of his former country would be; so easy that there’s going to be flowers and chocolate. Or a tech guy with a four color flag icon thing on his shirt offers to sell you a product with a “version 1.0″ after the title.
… or when an always wrong, bone stupid, right wing ideologue OpEd writer for the NYTimes and an always wrong, bone stupid, centrist, mendacious “democrat” writer for Time (AKA “Anonymous”) both say in the same week that what the Dems need is for Barack Obama to run for president.
Barack Obama should run for president.
He should run first for the good of his party. It would demoralize the Democrats to go through a long primary season with the most exciting figure in the party looming off in the distance like some unapproachable dream. The next Democratic nominee should either be Barack Obama or should have the stature that would come from defeating Barack Obama.
Here we go again. Gee, thanks, David. As always, I’m sure you have the best interests of the Democratic party at heart. Your advice is always so inspirational and helpful, I can’t help but be moved to just thank you so much.
Hey, I’ve got an idea: I think the GOP should nominate a cow patty for president and the Dems will nominate someone who can actually run this country. Whaddya say?
