OMG, Aspara! It''s like you read my mind! I''m totally only into Obama ''cause he''s like a celeb and stuff. I think most Obama supporters can agree-he''s basically like our golden calf to blindly worship! I''m nowhere near as smart as you so I can''t see that he''s only human, like any other president we''ve had in the past!
I really can''t fathom the idea that he isn''t going to wiggle his nose and make the whole world better! And buy us all a Coke, too! And I didn''t even really listen to him when he said the economy is really bad because I was blinded by his good looks (plus I was on my knees worshipping him so it was hard to hear), but did you ever think maybe he said the economy was really bad because...the economy is really bad?
Should he have told us the fundamentals of our economy were strong? Would that have been better?
My word; it seems we''ve struck a chord. I guess my use of ''many people'' not ''all people'' went unnoticed, unless of course, you identify so readily with the notion of blind celebrity driving part of Obama''s vote, as it appears you do.
Come on--I watched countless interviews with people who voted for Obama because he was black, popular, new, different.... many reasons cited BUT his policies/experience. A lot of people voted on that premise, but not all people by any means. Read more carefully next time.
Yes, I''ve been upset all day because you struck such a chord! Seriously? Your post is the exact same argument that everyone who doesn''t support Obama has used since the beginning of his campaign. So actually, no...not a single chord was struck. Not even just one note, either!
But next time I''ll be sure to read more carefully. Your use of the word "many" was a crucial detail that I overlooked and would surely have changed my response to your extraordinarily common criticisms.
