(2)  He seems to be infinitely more compassionate to the Wall Street, car company, and even oil company CEO's and their underlings, than to us poor slobs, i.e., "main street" America.  But, but, but . . . aren't these exactly the people who have already locked in "retirements" in the tens of millions? FDR dealt with something like this, and he took back around 90% of  the money from these parasites feeding on the labor of the working Americans.  Well, the FDR comparison to Obama is now a literal obscenity. RDF, maybe, i.e., Republican/Democratic/Fraud.

It's been said that politics in America has degenerated into a war/campaign between businesses and thus "elections" are really advertising campaigns between two businesses.  Indeed, this is almost certainly the most accurate way to describe the real world of American politics.  The convincer is the self evident truth that "advertising" has NOTHING to do with communicating information and facts, but exactly the contrary, since it succeeds in getting you to buy their soap to the precise degree that it deludes you into buying junk which you neither need nor can afford. 

From this perspective, Obama is simply the soap his adverting machine tricked us into buying.  Would McCain have been worse?  Almost certainly, but that doesn't change the fact that the Obama "soap" isn’t cleaning ANYTHING.

For the record, this is also the view of the one person in America who has seen ALL THE WAY THROUGH American politics for decades.  Of course, we're talking about the genius/conscience of America, Noam Chomsky, who has been excommunicated from the national media because even 85 IQ CEO's sensed that Chomsky was 100% percent in touch with reality -- and still is.  Hence, he terrified fascist/elites because evil best functions in a Heart of Darkness.  Well, Chomsky kept turning on the lights.  And even during his death rattle (still very far away if we're lucky) he'll still be the voice of objective truth about both America and the social/political dynamics of the entire planet.

The Obama bottom line is grim.  Its here we go again with chronic presidential lies and "choosing the lesser of the evils" and having to "make the best of things".

But "choosing the lesser of the evils" and "making the best of things" is CRAP.  Isn't that exactly what Obama's adverting machine convinced us Obama would end?  Wasn't the Obama soap advertised that it would be the soap of "change", and isn't that EXACTLY (and only!) why we voted for him in the first place?  Weren't we brainwashed into believing that Obama would be the incarnation of the idealism, rationality, and morality of the MAJORITY of American citizens and voters?

However, no matter how you spin it, the guy's turning out to be totally just the new Presidential slumlord in the American Dictatorship of the Rich.

Ugh.
