UnRealistic Expectations

Greenwald has a dim view of the DINOcratic candidate for preznit, and Avedon gives him a big I Told You So.

But back to Greenwald:

...Feeding distortions against someone like Wesley Clark in order to please Joe Klein and his fact-free media friends, or legalizing warrantless eavesdropping and protecting joint Bush/telecom lawbreaking, or basing his campaign on demonizing MoveOn.org and 1960s anti-war hippies, is quite harmful in many long-lasting ways. Electing Barack Obama is a very important political priority but it isn't the only one there is, and his election is less likely, not more likely, the more homage he pays to these tired, status-quo-perpetuating Beltway pieties.


The Unibama was scam from the beginning. The only problem is that HHHillary was and is at least as bad. And Mc$ame would be far, far worse still.

Then there are some of the really bad ideas the Oborg Prime seems to think are perfectly reasonable:

ZANESVILLE, Ohio — With an eye toward courting evangelical voters, Senator Barack Obama arrived here on Tuesday to present a plan to expand on President Bush’s program of investing federal money in religious-based initiatives that are intended to fight poverty and perform community aid work...

“Now, I know there are some who bristle at the notion that faith has a place in the public square,” Mr. Obama intends to say. “But the fact is, leaders in both parties have recognized the value of a partnership between the White House and faith-based groups...”


No wonder 80% of Americans think the country's headed in the wrong direction.

Dead wrong, sir. The term "Leader" implies someone is actually willing to follow you. Which DINOcrat leader do you speak of? Joe Lieberman?

The electoral process in America is broken. Instead of an election, we have a $election.

We are given the choice of lesser evils.

Mc$ame is counting on a terror attack. Me, I'm counting on a reasonable facsimile of the Kzin to show up any decade now.
