As the 2008 Presidential election campaign is heading into the stretch, one can't help but be aware that the presumptive nominee for the Democrat Party has up until now, with the help of the mainstream media, been able to protect his identity as the Lone Stranger remaining in the race.
All the other candidates, and would-be contenders for the Presidency of the United States of America, which is without question, the most powerful and important executive position in the entire world, have been fully vetted, had their individual and personal beliefs examined, and have, for the most part, been cast by the wayside. Amazingly, there is one glaring exception to this political vetting process, namely: one Barack Hussein Obama!
As women swoon and faint, and male talk show hosts feel tingling sensations under their pants at the very sound of his voice, those of us who seek to take a more sober approach to the implications of his call for change and hope, are left to wonder exactly what horse the Lone Stranger has rode into town on. The fact that any attempts to get information about the direction in which he would lead our country, and the policies he would enact, from the mainstream media is like trying to get blood out of a turnip, we are left to the construction of our own idea of who this man is by gleaning some insight, via youtube.com or other blogspots, of his cadre of mentors, advisors, and other radical-leftist/Marxist associations; then, only because of their precelebratory orgiastic verbal eruptions drawing attention to their very vitriolic hatred for all things American and which are not included in the "black liberation theology" worldview.
Anon, with the continuing verbal ejaculations of his spiritual mentors and assorted anti-American, anti-Israeli terrorist friends and advisors, the Democrat hero is being forced to give the American public "snippets" of explanation and denounciaton. He has, lately, even seen the necessity, as a result of his anti-American associations, to wear "that thing" (the American flag pin) on his lapel, in a desperate and rather tardy attempt to show that he is indeed patriotic, after all! Never mind that his church (until yesterday, of course) has a history of disseminating Hamas literature in it's very church bulletin. In a speech at a Veteran's Pancake Breakfast in South Dakota this morning, he even had the "audacity to hope" that he could champion the cause of veterans of the United States military by proclaiming his devotion to them.
This is all well and good, but his vows of solidarity with all these white South Dakotans doesn't jibe with his twenty-year allegiance with Trinity United Church of Chicago and it's ideology which blames American soldiers, white people, and America in general, for everything that is wrong, racist, and oppressive of all the world's people of color.
In his townhall meeting in South Dakota yesterday, the Lone Stranger left unanswered the question of why he joined Trinity United Church of Christ in the first place. Take this exchange in a question and answer session after he resigned from Trinity yesterday, after another of his 20 year associates, Chicago radical Catholic black theology loving priest, Michael Pflager, as a guest speaker this past Sunday, did a Rev. Jeremiah Wright reenactment sermon full of racially divisive rhetoric against white Americans was exposed, once again, on youtube.com.:
Reporter: Senator Obama, there's been a lot of speculation that when you joined the church (Trinity) twenty years ago, it was a good opportunity for you, based on what you wanted to do at that time. What do you say to those who say that this is just more opportunism on your part because, as you embark on this new venture, the church has now become a problem for you. What do you say to those people?
Obama: First of all, I guess, I would challenge the initial premise. It's hard to understand how exactly the church was helpful to me in what...ooh...uhh...you're making...ahh...uh...Please expand on your argument. What was your argument? When I joined this church twenty years ago it was doing what?
Reporter: That as you were starting out as a community organizer it was a crucial church in the community and it afforded you a lot of contact with important people in the community and things like that...
Obama: Yea...that's actually...yea...there are a lot of big churches on the south side of Chicago...come...come...come...come to the south side sometime. There were a whole bunch of churches that were better connected politically...uh...you know...so, I reject that notion that I think is a very cynical one, that I would join a church simply to maneuver politcally, I...and...and...I'm offended by the suggestion; Point number one.
Point number two. If I had wanted to be politically convenient, then presumably when the problem surfaced with some of Rev. Wright's statements...uh...the day of my announcement, presumably that's when I would have thought about distancing myself from the church. I don't think that anybody can...uh...suggest that...uh...I have really tried to make this work because I've cared about my relationship to the people of that church...uh...who I care for very deeply.
This exchange is somewhat revealing, not so much in what is admitted as in what is not.
Question number one: If he did not join this church in order to become politically connected, then why, with all these other big churches on the south side of Chicago, did he choose to join this one (Trinity United Church of Christ) that practices such a racially polarizing orientation and whose pastor is radically anti-American?
Question number two: If not for political expediency, and presumably because of his caring for the relationship to the people of the church, isn't he referring to the people who we witness, while viewing these racist and divisive diatribes, standing, shouting, and amening the filth that is coming out of the mouths of these hateful pastors, and therefore, he is as much as admitting that he still has a place of his own in the amen corner of Trinity United Church of Christ?
I think this will not be the last of the revelations about the real identity of the Lone Stranger before November 4, 2008 roles around.
Although, his duplicity seems to be strange, indeed, I don't think the Lone Stranger can remain a stranger to the American people. This masked man will, I pray, be unmasked before Americans make a grave blunder in electing this pretender to the highest office in the world.
