* Obama's Victory--A British view *

* ** A victory for the hysterical Oprah Winfrey, the mad racist
preacher Jeremiah
Wright, the US mainstream media who abandoned any sense of objectivity long
ago, Europeans who despise America largely because they depend on her,
comics who claim to be dangerous and fearless but would not dare attack
genuinely powerful special interest groups. A victory for Obama-worshippers
everywhere. A victory for the cult of the cult. A man who has done little
with his life but has written about his achievements as if he had found the
cure for cancer in between winning a marathon and building a nuclear reactor
with his teeth. Victory for style over substance, hyperbole over history,
rabble-raising over reality.*

* ** A victory for Hollywood , the most dysfunctional community in the
world. Victory for Streisand, Spielberg, Soros, Moore, and Sarandon. Victory
for those who prefer welfare to will and interference to independence. For
those who settle for group think and herd mentality rather than those who
fight for individual initiative and the right to be out of step with meager
political fashion.*

* ** Victory for a man who is no friend of freedom. He and his people
have already stated that media has to be controlled so as to be balanced,
without realizing the extraordinary irony within that statement. Like most
liberal zealots, the Obama worshippers constantly speak of Fox and Limbaugh,
when the vast bulk of television stations and newspapers are drastically
liberal and anti-conservative. Senior Democrat Chuck Schumer said that just
as pornography should be censored, so should talk radio. In other words, one
of the few free and open means of popular expression may well be cornered
and beaten by bullies who even in triumph cannot tolerate any criticism and
opposition. A victory for those who believe the state is better qualified to
raise children than the family, for those who prefer teachers' unions to
teaching and for those who are naively convinced that if the West is
sufficiently weak towards its enemies, war and terror will dissolve as
quickly as the tears on the face of a leftist celebrity. A victory for social
democracy even after most of Europe has come to the painful conclusion that
social democracy leads to mediocrity, failure, unemployment, inflation,
higher taxes and economic stagnation. A victory for intrusive lawyers, banal
sentimentalists, social extremists and urban snobs.*

* **Congratulations America !*
