 | Dodging the flak over his description of typical small-town rednecks as those who turn to guns and Bibles if left without government supervision, Obama has once again skillfully turned the tables on his opponents with the same maneuver he used during the Jeremiah Wright "controversy": he returned to Philadelphia and delivered a sweeping speech on the legacy of rednecks in a post-redneck society and the importance of establishing a full government control over the redneck territories - a speech that political strategists agree hearkens back to those of America's founders, and deserves a similar place in history. Obama, who grew up in the redneck-free paradise of Hawaii, could have easily stepped into a cultural void of corporate middle-class indifference if he hadn't embraced the winning theory of class warfare and challenged the country to do better - to drop the old redneck values of self-reliance, and to accept the State as an absolute, in comparison with which all individuals or groups are relative, only to be considered in their relation to the State. |

Howard Zinn, historian:"We the people, in order to form a more soviet union..." With these simple words, social workers and community organizers had traveled across the ocean to establish a state of planned economy and redistribution of wealth according to everyone's needs.
The state they produced ultimately remained unfinished. It was stained by the presence of corncob-smokin', banjo-strokin' chicken-chokin' inbred hillbilly rednecks, who undermined the great American experiment with their distrust of a strong government. They continued to cling to their guns and Bibles, and refused to sacrifice their personal liberties to the Common Good as defined by the government. The rednecks brought the creation of a perfect society to a stalemate, and so the founders gave up and postponed any definitive solution to future generations.
Of course, the answer to the redneck question was already embedded within our Constitution, which has at its very core the subjugation of the individual to a strong centralized government, requiring the surrender of all unauthorized guns, Bibles, and incomes.
Our founders Marx and Engels believed that the government was endowed with unalienable rights to regulate life, ration liberty, and dispense happiness - and that to secure these rights, governments must decide what's best for the governed, redistribute their property, and indoctrinate their children.
Now, the rednecks will argue that the Constitution says something completely different. But we mustn't allow rednecks to rewrite our Constitution. We mustn't allow some small-town, god-crazy, gun-humping non-people to inject bitterness into our brave new world of collective hope, planned tolerance, and organized compassion.
Today, when the promise of the parchment has almost come true, it is up to this generation to find a final solution to the redneck problem. We must redouble the government's efforts to control lives, ration liberty, and dispense happiness. We must close the gap between our ideals and reality, even if it means shredding the reality to pieces. Can we do it? Yes we can!
It is up to this generation to make the word "redneck" a non-word, completing the construction of a post-redneck society.
I hope none of you are rednecks.
I shall conclude my historic speech by addressing critics who say I'm out of touch with reality.
I would like to show them a letter of support that was sent to me by a nice small-town family of hillbillies. It consisted of only a few lines scribbled over a black and white photograph - a large redneck family in front of a shabby old cracker house. The house needed some serious renovation and was probably in danger of foreclosure. The haggard faces of adults expressed bitterness and determination to fight for whatever little piece of entitlement the government can give them. The children's eyes revealed the sadness of a child who had been robbed of the true love and compassion of a caring social worker. They were the typical small-town Americans in need of guidance and support of big centralized government - exactly how I had always imagined them.
The note on the photo said,
Y'all cum n'save us, Bawrock Whosane Obomber! We done fell through the Clinton gubbermint net, and the Bush gubbermint net too, so's we is a gettin' bitter as bitteroot, we cling to silly ol' guns, that ol' time religion, and we been shootin' folks that ain't like us, as a way to 'splain the lack of gubbermint supervision over our po' simple redneck lives.
Jus' don't give nuthin' fer free to those gawddam McCoys.XOXOXO,

How do you do that morphing Che/Borat thing?Adobe ImageReady has a tool for image animation. Once you get the hang of it it's not hard. Just watch the file sizes, they can grow too big. This Prophet/Messiah image (author unknown) was almost 700 KB, and did only one-way transition. I changed it to make a two-way transition and brought it down to 80 KB while keeping the same dimensions. The quality is only a little lower, but in this case it's not important.

I was just lurking around the dKos, and came across a little nugget that goes directly to the heart of the sentiment of Obama's statement. The article is Poor, White and Pissed: A Word or Two from Mr. Bageant - make sure you also read the linked article (at the bottom) in it's entirety. The Obamob over there are exhibiting the disconnect between Liberals and "regular folks" we are so joyously satirizing. It's especially evident in the comments, where we find stuff like this:

I love Joe Bageant. What I don't understand is why he (and his posts) don't get more replay here (currently only 13 comments)... He is wise and understands that the poor working class is a vital part of the Republican base. He is always exploring the many reasons why they consistently vote against their own interests.I don't know. Let me know if I'm off base here, but I think these clowns just don't seem to get how snobbish and, dare I say elitist, these statements sound. "We Liberals know what's best, but the stupid rethugs won't even listen to our suggestions..."

ME: Just 'cause we is all screwing our sisters-in-law, he thinks, we is bitter. Hell, he ain't seen my sister-in-law!!!!
HILL: I have to piss, which way to the men's room?
ME: You mean the lady's room?
HILL: Can't you see I'm wearing pants, asshole. I can piss further up on the wall than you can reach on your tippy-toes.
ME: The girls 'round here sit down to pee.
HILL:**Whips out 1911 .45 and shoves muzzle under my nose** Girls do...I don't!
ME: Ummm....the boys go outside under the stars.
HILL: I'll be back!
HILL: I didn't TAKE a piss I LEFT one. [cackle-cackle] Hey, bartender, another round on my friend in Pennsylvania, and make 'em doubles. [more cackle]
ME: But what about that Balack Nobama guy?
HILL: I dodged sniper-fire for that pussy-whipped clown. If he had any sense he'd bitch-slap his uppity wife. She acts like she wants to be co-president or something.
ME: Well, I see it's midnight and my sister-in-law's husband has the graveyard shift over at the paper cup factory. Better go see if she needs anything.
HILL: Hold on... buy one more round and I'll come with you.....

Help us Obomer we R stuk in a smull tuwn.Has u gotts big gun? Iz u bored and bitter? Get u sum.
To show my heartfelt apologies, I have taken the liberty to inject some Barry White into the most typical White movie of all time.
Now it has soul. No pea knuckles though.
I don't know if it's good or bad. The Pope poster cost $99.00 (editions of 666 are signed and numbered). The Obama poster is free everywhere for all to see on the bus stops.
The creatures that made the Pope poster turn out to be rather progressive animals. They style themselves as creative punk-rock intellectuals and consider McCain much scarier than Obama or Hillary. There's a name for them in the Party lexicon: "useful geniuses."

Help us Borat Huzany Obomba.
Is Comrade Bardot a Party professional? I can't seem to find her record in our files. Has anyone seen her Greater Good(TM) balance sheet? Perhaps if she were to register on the People's Cube we could review and upgrade her status. Until that time she shall remain a mere francophone septuagenarian thoughtcriminal and should keep her wrinkled trap shut.
Pitting animals and Muslims against each other... I don't even want to go there.

I can't seem to find her record in our files.Sorry, I was looking at the pictures
and forgot to put it back. Some facists would no doubt assert that even a broken watch is right twice a day. From her dossier:
"Political incorrectness has dogged Bardot in recent years, being fined by the French government no fewer than four times in recent years for "inciting hatred" with her books. Her views that gays are "fairground freaks", that racially mixed marriages are an abomination, and that France is being "Islamized" have been problematic, as has her denunciation of the ritual slaughter of sheep during the Muslim feast of Eid. Bardot was an outspoken supporter of France's failed fascist presidential candidate Jean-Marie Le Pen."

Brigitte Bardot defends animal rights but speaks up against Muslims? How can she make such a choice between the two equally oppressed minority groups? There is a rigid party-approved hierarchy of victim groups whose rights must be protected, and both groups are in it. Pitting one group against the other is prohibited to anyone except qualified Party professionals for the purpose of raising funds and controlling the election process. Then it is allowed because it is for the Greater Good(TM).Is Comrade Bardot a Party professional? I can't seem to find her record in our files. Has anyone seen her Greater Good(TM) balance sheet? Perhaps if she were to register on the People's Cube we could review and upgrade her status. Until that time she shall remain a mere francophone septuagenarian thoughtcriminal and should keep her wrinkled trap shut.

I think she only supports French animals' rights.
P.S. It would be really cool if one could animate this pic of Comrade Bardot to blink infrequently, like every few minutes or so, to make people think they are hallucinating. It would be really creepy. Post it on a prole web site; some would catch it and some wouldn't, adding to the mass hysteria.
