Barack Fucking Hussein Obama!

There still is something very unreal about the fact that a guy with this name is our president-elect. Almost like a sick joke from the powers that be. Who would ever think a black guy with the name Barack Hussein Obama would ever be elected president, much less be an agent for the PTB?

Certainly as predicted, the right begins their total freak-out.

The great irony is that, apart from Obama's race and Muslim name, he's a freaking centrist Democrat who will have some mild liberal streaks on social issues and economics, but will otherwise continue essentially the same undue expansion of power with a very similar overall foreign policy:

Although I expect the coming régime to provide less fodder for high-kick comedy than the current, I expect it to be a much more interesting study in the operation of the modern executive-imperial American state. The ham-handed execution of executive expansion and foreign imperialism under George Dubya will now yield to subtler application of the same policies and prerogatives.

I imagine the death and destruction during an Obama presidency will be less (although I could well be wrong), but I am fairly sure the death and destruction will be more subtle and under more of an international umbrella. But to be sure, the PTB haven't gone anywhere, and they are still as evil as always.
