Hope for Corporate America

If you really think Barack Hussein Obama represents something new in American politics, then the only thing that's new is you to this blog.

Presidential elections are hyped as job interviews in which the sovereign American people decide who's best qualified in taking us toward the direction they want to take the country. Instead, elections are choreographed acts whose sole function is to laminate the ruling elite's unchallenged dominion over us with a shiny coating of legitimacy. Whatever they do to us, we asked for it.

Or so they'd have you believe.

Obama's part of the problem, not the solution. His resume, shallow as it is, tells us everything we need to know about him:

Obama, as you will see if you examine his voting record, has repeatedly rewarded those who reward him. As a senator he has promoted nuclear energy as “green.” He has been lauded by the nuclear power industry, which is determined to resume building nuclear power plants across the country. He has voted to continue to fund the Iraq war. He opposed Rep. John Murtha’s call for immediate withdrawal. He refused to join the 13 senators who voted against confirming Condoleezza Rice as secretary of state. He voted in July 2005 to reauthorize the Patriot Act.

That's why corporate America is so on-board with this leftist -- his public persona will pretty up the military industrial agenda:

The same Beltway lobbyists, corporate donors and public relations firms, the same weapons manufacturers, defense contractors, nuclear power companies and Wall Street interests that give Clinton and John McCain money, give Obama money. They happen, in fact, to give Obama more. And the corporate state, which is carrying out a coup d’état in slow motion, believes it will prosper in Obama’s hands. If not, he would not be a viable candidate. We have come full circle, back to the age of the robber barons and railroad magnates of the late 19th century who selected members of corrupt state assemblies to be their pliable senators and congressmen and sent them off to Washington to do their bidding.

Once again, Corporate America can't lose. There will be an Open Borders interventionist in the White House. Ain't democracy grand?
