It turns out that we're the
asses for believing that last Sunday's big Obama Rapture was
real. Crowds as big as a city! Historic
proportions. Shame on me. Eventually I'll learn that everything -
I said EVERYTHING -
about this man is contrived. Oh, the crowds were there
alright. They
just weren't there in those numbers to see some punk politician.
In case you missed the story on NBC News(!), Pajama's Media has it.
Here's a cut from Communists for Obama

They waited for hours under a warm sun, the line snaking for blocks
and blocks through downtown. They packed onto the park lawn, from the
makeshift stage to the waterfront and up to the street. They watched
from a bridge overhead and from pleasure boats on the river,
bikini-clad. They brought their parents and their infants. Some skipped
work. Some wilted in the heat. A few jammed the streets afterward,
hoping for a final motorcade glimpse. Fire department officials counted
75,000 in all, a record for the main attraction, Sen. Barack Obama
(D-Ill.).
Not a word about the popular Obama-supporting band —
which is a shame, because it’s the most interesting development in this
whole episode.

The
group Obama's campaign chose to add zest to his Portland appearance is
a hip local band, The Decemberists. In case you miss the meaning,
here's a hint.

The band’s name apparently comes from the [6] Decembrists,
a group Russian aristocrats who staged an unsuccessful uprising in 1825
to dispose of the czar and establish a constitutional democracy. Some
of them were executed; others were jailed or exiled to Siberia.
That’s right: incredible as it sounds, the band blasts the
Russian-language national anthem of the USSR at the beginning of every
concert. And not the sanitized Putin version either — the old-guard
Communist version that glorifies the Party of Lenin. Do I remember
those lyrics well! As a former Soviet citizen, I have quite an
emotional connection to this music ... .
I would love to see a video of Obama as he listened to this. Did he
stand at attention? Did he put his hand on his heart? Or did the band
can the anthem for the time being, just like Obama canned his longtime
“mentor and spiritual advisor” for political expediency? “Yes we can,”
people.

This
is the event where Obama made this pronouncement
about the world's
impatience with evil America, but what's more significant than Obama's
choice in music is, IMO, the media's neglect in mentioning this aspect
altogether. This contrivance named Obama, in every respect,
belongs to the media. In effect, the overthrowing of
the United States
government is all but complete. If they fail this time, they'll be
back.
