Joe Bageant: The Devil and Mr. Obama

Do yourself a favor. Read this tour de force by Joe Bageant. Best damn thing I've read all year!

Barack promised change -- and sure enough, things changed for the worse

By Joe Bageant

Well lookee here! An invite from my limey comrades to recap Barack Obama's first year in office. Well comrades, I can do this thing two ways. I can simply state that the great mocha hope turned out to be a Trojan horse for Wall Street and the Pentagon. Or I can lay in an all-night stock of tequila, limes and reefer and puke up the entire miserable tale like some 5,000 word tequila purged Congolese stomach worm. I have chosen to do the latter.

As you may know, Obama's public approval ratings are taking a beating. Millions of his former cult members have awakened with a splitting hangover to find their pockets turned inside out and eviction notices on the doors of their 4,000 square foot subprime mortgaged cardboard fuck boxes. Many who voted for Obama out of disgust for the Bush regime are now listening to the Republicans again on their car radios as they drive around looking for a suitable place to hide their vehicles from the repo man. Don't construe this as support for the GOP. It's just the standard ping ponging of disappointment and disgust that comes after the honeymoon is over with any administration. Most Americans' party affiliations are the same as they were when Bush was elected. After all, Obama did not get elected on a landslide by any means; he got 51% of the vote.

  1. Tupical. . . . Excellent.

    But, Joe, the policies remain because the same people are running America and the rest of the world.

    Israelis? Corporatists? Yes, but they're only dancing to the tune of the Rothschild-Rockefeller cabal.

    But wait and see what is coming.

  2. No one says it better than Joe. He's dead on about everything he speaks about. But I'm with flak. As much as he sees and he sees a lot, he still isn't seeing the entire BIG picture.

  3. Exactly right Joe. He like the MSM, sells the car well and it's a fine car. But he fails to address the bullshit undercoating. We know about the paint job Joe. There's the White model and the Black model

    The black and white models have the same the undercoating. You have identified the triads with your usual wonderful modifiers and metaphors but...Get under the car Joe and see what's between the fancy Michelins. And call it what it is.

  4. remember the rule, 98% truth........military disinfo is built on the remaining 2%. Admit you're wrong and take the wind out of the sails the opposition have set. I haven't read Joe's article yet. Don't need to. If you guys say it's almost good, it fits to what I've said, but I shore do like the intro. The dude can write. No doubt. Okay, if you'all don't spam it into oblivion by tomorrow, I might read it. Mebbe. I owe it to Joe, sort of. btw, 51% is a majority. Democracy sucks, for the 49%. But wait a sec, Obombya wasn't "elected". He too was "sElected". Something is knocking on my head, telling me to turn the TV off, telling me to quit listening to the Ed Schmulz Show, telling me to turn off to tune in. I feel sick. Have I been brainwashed?

    (fat chance, bitches!)

  5. Don't get me wrong, Tony and PD. Joe is never devious, and certainly has not been bought. But there is only so much you can say in 5000 words.

    However, if otherwise omitted, as a constant addendum to the golden bile I suppose he COULD always add, Oh, and by the way, Up yours, Rothschild.

  6. I've read Joe since 2000 when he attacked the Xian fundamentalists and the Bush Regimes. Not sure how he looked at the Clinton Crime Syndicate.

    He understands the duality of things but he like many of us have the trappings of youth and childhood. Joe is an example of dirt poor, dealing with the caste of his station and moved into the counterculture. What a let down that was for me as well. He quickly adopted the front men of socialism as the answer. OUCH!

    Let's think about the scenario had Gore taken office in 2000 and he and Joe Lieberman would have had the reins. What escapades would the world have suffered through then? Anything different based upon these deciders? Unlikely the DC moshpit or COMMITTEE would have drastically changed it's program.

    Lieberman and Gore look today like the leading candidates to bring the Zionist/Banking World Order to fruition. Lieberman the independent should have coined the term "going rogue" long before Palin snagged it.

    The agenda is and has always been oligarchy and has been held by the five families. Buddha was not a good lefty, Joe. Socialism is no more a good working governing philosophy than Capitalism. It requires a taste for suffering, the loss of ego and a adversion to power trips which fanifest historically into totalitarianism under a fascist facade.

    Good luck Gentlemen. Joe can take heart though. It appears that Obama has decided to approach his term in office by unleashing the four noble truths onto the world population and that is a change. We'll come to know the Zen Masters shortly.
