‘V’ aims at Obamamania
Nov 3rd, 2009 by TMH
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…
