cute. and the funny thing is, MA, I would see anyone who blindly follows the GOP as a lemming, seriously lacking the ability of discernment and self-actualization. and to think, im not even a democrat.
I may be an ex-Republican, but I am not blind. This little confession is more of a question than a statement. As I just wrote, I have had an epiphany and I am changing parties. It will be a struggle, but I will subjugate my intelligence to follow the party line, and I will not ask those pesky questions that start with, or end with, why, how or prove it.
I am not blinded by John McCain, he isn't much of a Republican, truth be told, so voting for Obama should be easy for me. But I am fascinated by Obama and his asscension to the heights he has risen to. I have a hard time not asking the obvious questions, and I know that if I do I will be labeled as a:
A) Racist
B) Partisan Republican
C) neo-Con
D) All of the above
The only way to avoid those accusations is to become a member of the party, and accept the mindlessness that has become a mandatory membership requirement over the past few months. Hell, I don't know anything about Barack H Obama, and if I ask I am told to read his book (a virtual death sentence), which makes me ask why I would believe his book, since he wrote it?
I am not, and I will not at this time, accuse Barack H Obama of being a Muslim, or a racist, or a proponant of Black Theology, I don't know enough about him, but neither do the people who are waxing poetically about him.
I am now a Democrat, and as one I cannot question the choice of Barack H Obama as candidate for President, even if I have concerns about how, where and why he is running. Even if I have concerns about his electability. Even if I just can't believe what he is trying to tell me. I BELIEVE! Barack H Obama id the second coming of JFK, a womenizer who committed the US to support of South Viet Nam and who developed an extreme case of cold feet in a place called the Bay of Pigs.
It isn't a Republican/Democrat thing. It is WTF thing. I know that John McCain is going to be questioned about his POW days, his involvement with the Keating Five, his partnership with the liberal lion of Massachusetts on illegal aliens, I mean poor undocumented immigrants, his divorce, his children, his religion, his automobile and his bank account. He should be question about all of that plus anything else that begs a question. Will Obama be questioned in the same way? With the same intensity? Or, with anybody who does ask those questions be branded:
A) Racist
B) Partisan Republican
C) neo-Con
D) All of the above
My new hero, Barack H Obama has already served notice that anybody who even dares ask a hard question will get hammered. He has already shown the world that, while nobody has attcked him with his race, he will fabricate the offence if necessary.
I am now a Dem, but the conversion will take a while to become fully Borg-like, so I ask my fellow Dems here and around the world to help me. Pick me up when I fall back on independant thought and slap me when I ask those insensitive questions, like Is Mrs. Barack H Obama still proud to be an American?
Sincerely, MA_Democrat
