This Class War is Awesome!!

Hey, here's a sentence you've never seen in this blog:

This President is great!

I would list how many great things Mr. Obama seems to be doing, but I'm too tired, what with planning the class war here with Angela Davis over triple shot mochas.

I have no irony to direct at the President though; Clinton at this point in his presidency was tripping all over himself. Barely a month in, this guy is laying waste to the forces of darkness, remaking the national agenda, laying the groundwork for saving the planet, ending the Iraq war, and for our entertainment, providing ample opportunity for the right wing to front like total jackasses.

Most Americans are coming together over the need to fix things: lots of things. And capitalism as cult is over. Even peace seems to be breaking out.

If class war is taking money out of absurd weapons systems and supporting the troops, if class war is the radical Leninist plan of returning upper income tax rates to 90s levels, if class war is rebuilding the nation's health care system so it delivers health care widely, if class war is actually beginning to end fossil fuels' dependency, to take climate change seriously, to inspire the country to work through harder times for a better future, sign me up, Comrade! I'll take a dank recession with Barack Obama any day over that bourgeois bash on credit with Bush.

The GOP is all set, with its critique being led by an expert in demonic possession.

Let's see, we have two choices - a guy who is consistently trying to do the right thing for American, or a guy who says his best friend was possessed by a demon and he helped with the exorcism.

Decisions decisions...
