Bob is not drinking the Kool-Aid at all. Can’t people think for themselves today in this Orwellian society? The thought that FEAR be replaced with HOPE scares many of the conservatives all over the world. The cowboy antics of the current president have set the USA apart from the rest of the world. Living in that vacuum of fear the last 7 years has been one of the worst parts of my existence. Seeing war tear into the fabric of towns I live near, hearing about soldiers wounded for the Bush cause, seeing gas prices and our economic collapse are nothing that this Anglo-Saxon male is proud to witness. The ones who drink the Kool-Aid are hiding in their Presidential bubbles. Dick Cheney, Bush, Rumsfeld, Colin Powell all had parts in this current Iraqi debacle. Everyone from the last sentence has propagated fear and other worldly LIES for the sake of politics and big oil monies. They are sick human beings! Yet, whenever a fresh faced African American politician comes to the scene we all should be scared to death because of him encouraging HOPE into the bitter abyss of FEAR. OH NO THAT CANNOT HAPPEN! Not in today’s point and click circle jerk society! I will take Barack Obama’s HOPE and CHANGE any day over the Geritol McCain. I don’t need a musician to tell me how to vote, but I am glad Bob Dylan feels the need to speak out about the goodness and qualities the Barack Obama possesses.
