Barack Obama speaks for me as much as John McCain does. They are both on equal footing when trying to comprehend what the common person's life is like. What amazes me is that there are people who still believe the democrats aren't exactly like the republicans in basically looking after themselves and their buddies,
in staying entrenched in Washington and keeping that paycheck coming in, in mouthing empty promises about what they believe and what they will do.
These same people are intelligent enough to see through the republican's bullshit, and know that it's basically dumb people who buy into their bullshit (unless it's the rich who will actually be benefitted), and yet they fall under the same spell because it's clothed in the empty rhetoric of the left.
Is it because we as humans desperately want something to believe in larger than ourselves. Is it the same reason we believe in ridiculous religions no matter how much their tenets don't hold water, the same reason we believe in conspiracy theories no matter how ludicrous they are. Just as long as SOMEONE is in control, as long as there is SOMEONE at the helm guiding our future. And then people have the gall to be amazed that Hitler was voted into power.
ENCORE!
