Satire By John W. Lillpop Barack Obama seems to have set the world on fire with his brilliant intelligence, captivating charm, inspiring oratory, and charisma. By sheer coincidence (?), Obama seems to possess many of the traits attributed to the anti-Christ by those who research and analyze such things. In particular, the following attributes, culled from a non-political source *, seem to match Obama quite well. (Attributes listed on the site that do not seem to match Obama are not shown below.) Note: The site referenced does NOT state or infer that Obama is the anti-Christ, nor does it imply that the senator might devolve into said rascal at some future date. In fact, Obama’s name is not even mentioned. Still, the match is striking. According to the referenced site, the anti-Christ will among other things: Rise from a sub-national leadership position Community coordinator in Illinois? Have powerful supporters helping him rise to power Oprah Winfrey, Warren Buffet, George Soros, Bill and Hillary Clinton, most members of the Kennedy clan, and approximately 99 percent of the African American population stand behind Obama. A most powerful team! Obama is even more: He is clean and articulate! Be generally different or unique amongst politicians His racial profile makes this a perfect match. Be a great unifier who appeals to people across traditional lines Even some conservatives are buying into Obama’s act! Be a Christian, at least by appearances Notwithstanding Pastor Jeremiah Wright, Obama claims to be a Christian. Be preceded by an aggressive warmonger who will forcefully depose two Middle Eastern governments Even liberals with see the match with this one! Arise from a great nation with unrivaled wealth and power That just happens to be the good old United States of America, mates! Perhaps all of this IS sheer coincidence. Still, in my view, Obama bears careful watching, especially if he starts stamping 666 on the foreheads of adoring masses! ________________________
John W. Lillpop American citizens are generally aware of the fact that eating at McDonald’s can pose a serious risk to one’s health owing to the salt, fat, sugar, and carbohydrate content of food prepared there. But how many Americans realize that dining under the Golden Arches might also expose one to ID theft and financial ruin? That may sound far-fetched, until one considers the news coming out of a Las Vegas courtroom recently. Two executives and the corporate owner of 11 northern Nevada McDonald’s restaurants pleaded guilty to felony immigration charges and agreed to pay $1 million in fines. Company directors Joe Gillespie of Sparks and former vice president Jimmy Moore allegedly hired illegal aliens to flip Big Macs and scoop out greasy, salt-laden French fires. That crime was bad enough, but Gillespie and Moore went the extra mile by providing invading criminals with false identities and social security numbers belonging to Americans! FOX: In addition to the fact that Gillespie and Moore are now convicted felons and McDonald’s checking account is a cool $1,000,000.00 lighter, there is more good news: Most of the illegal aliens have been kicked out of America, sent home to their third world nations of origin! This bizarre episode simply begs for a new McDonald’s motto: How about, “Try a Spicy McDonald’s Taco, With Extra Salsa–to Go!”
Anyone who loves dogs and dog people comes away from “Greatest American Dog” depressed and angry.This sad piece of television-decline has no heart, no waramth, witchy female judges, obviously trying to out nasty each other, beating on a women with a non-purebread dog who likes to dress it up. To best describe last nights idiot shrew of a judge one has only a single question– “How many ways can you spell C-r-a-z-y?” If that is animal abuse witch-judge look at one of the fastest growing industries in the world, clothing for pets. Last night’s show was Dog Owner abuse. Shame on CBS for giving “Greatest Awful Dogshow” air time when we care so much about our beloved pets we’d tune in to almost anything this side of the Michael Vick Thursday Night fight. Dog Lovers can still find “Happy” on Animal Planet and People Loves on the recently revamped “Ellen” show. Keep that TV remove finger warm, unless retooled this show with so much potential has the shelf of cottage cheese. |
