Welcome to ‘hope’ and ‘change’ baby… Now, I’m not saying our Dear Leader is an alien lizard who wants to eat us, but I’m not not saying it either… 😉
From: The Chicago Tribune – ‘V’ aims at Obamamania
Key excerpt:
Imagine this. At a time of political turmoil, a charismatic, telegenic new leader arrives virtually out of nowhere. He offers a message of hope and reconciliation based on compromise and promises to marshal technology for a better future that will include universal health care.
The news media swoons in admiration — one simpering anchorman even shouts at a reporter who asks a tough question: “Why don’t you show some respect?!” The public is likewise smitten, except for a few nut cases who circulate batty rumors on the Internet about the leader’s origins and intentions. The leader, undismayed, offers assurances that are soothing, if also just a tiny bit condescending: “Embracing change is never easy.”
So, does that sound like anyone you know? Oh, wait — did I mention the leader is secretly a totalitarian space lizard who’s come here to eat us?
You better believe I’ll be recording NCIS in one room and watching ‘V’ in the other… 8)
