Excited States in Full Hysteria Mode


The American elections are always way more fun than our own, if for no other reason than the sheer "bizarro" factors.


Oprah, that arbiter of all things cultural (books, food, sex, fashion, charity), is stumping for Barack Obama.


Why? Because she can and because he is black.


Football fields will now be hardly large enough to hold in the throngs.


No question Obama is an attractive, intelligent and interesting man and candidate. And no doubt it is time for America to elect a woman or a black as President.


But, as always, not because the candidate is a woman or black.


On the other hand, in the Southern eastern Seaboard states, white people have no embarrassment at all about telling the TV cameras that nobody they know will ever vote for a black man. Nice.


Then, there are the Republicans who cannot find a pew or a pulpit fast enough to declare their religious belief systems. Mormon, in; Baptist, out. Today.


No doubt, tomorrow, the Pentecostals will have the glory.


What happened to the separation of church and state? What happened to policy? What are your ideas for government?


No. Just tell us which Jesus you believe in and how deeply and how often.


George Bush, the worst President in history, a complete puppet of the evil men around him, prays all the time. When he isn't sneering, he's genuflecting. And what a wonderful time he's brought us all.
