I see the partisan warlords have rolled out their warwagons. Because, you know, it’s all about if Our Guy wins. Because of the vast superiority of Our Guy’s views. The ones we already know Our Guy will absolutely lie about today and that won’t be in any evidence come the first of 2009 and thereafter.

How soon we forget, huh? Look. This isn’t about the usual politics. This is about the money.

As in, Obama, after he wins, which he will, will within those first four years become the biggest fallguy for the biggest financial debacle the country has seen yet.

Are you watching the real news? About Freddie, Fannie, Indy, and scores of little systemic failures? About some fifty trillion dollars in unpaid debt and entitlement obligations? About a trillion dollars already gone and housing only a third of the way back down to the basement? About how we make nothing and buy everything on credit and on the wage of a globe full of 3rd world makers?

Solely because, so far, they trust the dollar. Ever wonder what happens after that dollar goes belly-up? I mean, it’s based on thin air after all.

See, we’re just now seeing the first indicators of the obsolescence of the US’s monetary system. The fractional reserve system doesn’t work. The Fed and the last ten administrations killed the richest, most productive, most prosperous and freest nation in history.

So we need a fall guy and I think we know who that guy is. The inexperienced, double-talking, self-centered, idea-less Socialist-in-disguise called Obama will simply inherit the end of our current way of life.

It all adds up. Including why McCain is irrelevant, now, tomorrow, and in the future. Bush got out with his legacy, such as it is, largely intact. The next guy likely won’t.
