I didn’t vote for the motherfucker. I found the motherfucker’s pre-election Hope-hype transparently bullshittable. I cackled long and loud when the motherfucker won the Nobel Peace Prize.\u00a0 I’ve argued a million-and-one times that the policies of the motherfucker’s administration have been wholly indistinguishable from those of his predecessor’s.<\/p>\n
But I guess I’m not cynical enough, because his latest<\/a> trick has truly shocked me.<\/p>\n Barack Obama marked an end to a war he once described as “dumb” by declaring the conflict in Iraq a success and saying the last US troops will leave in the coming days with their “heads held high”.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Shocking…but even more, just absolutely sickening.<\/p>\n In true Bush-era fashion, there was plenty of merriment in Obama’s speech (transcript<\/a> courtesy the official White House website) at Fort Bragg…<\/p>\n Now, I\u2019m sure you realize why I don\u2019t like following Michelle Obama. (Laughter.) She\u2019s pretty good. And it is true, I am a little biased, but let me just say it: Michelle, you are a remarkable First Lady. You are a great advocate for military families. (Applause.) And you\u2019re cute. (Applause.) I\u2019m just saying — gentlemen, that\u2019s your goal: to marry up. (Laughter.) Punch above your weight.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n …and plenty of good old-fashioned Nuremberg-esque jingoism…<\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Hooah!\u00a0 (Applause.) […]<\/em><\/p>\n THE PRESIDENT:\u00a0 Hello, everybody!\u00a0 (Applause.)\u00a0 Hello, Fort Bragg!\u00a0 All the way!<\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Airborne! […]<\/em><\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Hooah! […]<\/em><\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Hooah! […]<\/em><\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Hooah!\u00a0 (Applause.) […]<\/em><\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Hooah! […]<\/em><\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Hooah!\u00a0 (Applause.) […]<\/em><\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Hooah! […]<\/em><\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Hooah![…]<\/em><\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Hooah![…]<\/em><\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Hooah![…]<\/em><\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Hooah![…]<\/em><\/p>\n AUDIENCE:\u00a0 Hooah!\u00a0 (Applause.) […]<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n …but nowhere to be found is any mention of the humanitarian<\/a> and ecological toll of the second Gulf War, which mark it as one of the more depraved crimes in American history (and that’s saying a helluva<\/a> lot).<\/p>\n Hundreds of thousands dead? More than a million internal refugees<\/a>? Unexploded<\/a> cluster bombs maiming and killing even more? Radiological<\/a> munitions? Civilian infrastucture laid waste? Wanton torture and cruelty?<\/p>\n Hooah!, and pass the motherfucking popcorn.<\/p>\n Barack Obama, like his predecessor before him, is a War Criminal<\/a>. Like his predecessor before him, he thinks his crimes are praise-worthy, and joke-worthy. Like his predecessor’s before his, his Administration has been a pox upon this world.<\/p>\n A vote cast for this man in 2012 is a vote for death, destruction, and misery untold. Just don’t do it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I didn’t vote for the motherfucker. I found the motherfucker’s pre-election Hope-hype transparently bullshittable.
