Barack finds himself in the position of most Democrats running for political office. They can’t say when they really believe. If they did, they wouldn’t get elected because they are philosophically as out of touch with mainstream America is the mainstream media is out of touch with most Americans.
And when you can’t speak to what you truly believe, the job is incredibly tougher. Your memory every minute of every day must be sharp as a Ginsu knife.
You’re in the position of a liar who has to remember every lie.
This is the strain Barack is under, and it’s the strain that’s getting him down. The SS Obama, like the German warship Bismark, is no longer the hunter, she’s the hunted.
Moreover, Barack knows that the media’s treatment of Sarah Palin is dealing a slow death blow to the media. They’re shooting their wad at Sarah, and when this election is over, the mainstream media’s credibility quotient will approach the number in Obama’s inner circle who now know what their creative strategy needs to be. Zero.
The first torpedo shot at the SS Barack was fired by McCain simply by selecting Sarah Palin as his running mate. But it hit above the water line so it wasn’t fatal. The second torpedo was fired by Palin at the convention, and caused The Obama to slightly list to one side.
The latest torpedo was fired not by the McCain crew by rather by Obama himself and was directed at the McCain’s sister ship, the Palin.
Obama indiscriminately fired a cheap shot; (she’s a pig) using a torpedo that missed. However, Obama, like the Russian sub commander in “The Hunt for Red October” turned off the time fuse so the torpedo keeps running till it finds a target.
Obama tried zigging and zagging, defending himself, saying he didn’t mean to take the shot at Palin, but most everybody, surely his audience, knew precisely what Obama meant; that Barack was calling Palin a pig.
Now women across the country are taking their own pot shots at Obama.
Obama and his two Daves are standing on the bridge of their damaged ship, and seeing ordinance being fired at them from all directions.
They can’t abandon ship.
Ordinarily they’d turn to Obama’s mouth to save them. Unfortunately, Obama’s Harvard Law trained mouth is what got them into trouble. The “Put lipstick on a pig and it’s still a pig torpedo, aimed at Palin, has found a secondary target; it’s about to blow the SS Obama right out of the water.
