So, the Magical Misery tour [kudos to guy on team Romney that came up with that tagline] - no, not the absurdity of it being an obvious campaign event paid for with public money the impropriety of which not only does not seem to bother the MSM all that much but is indeed encouraged by them given their active and preening participation in it [I guess as the first black - sort of black - president they feel Obama's deserving of this illegal indulgence][did I just imply something racist? Well, Anderson Cooper will say yes indeed it was racist and therefore it must have been cause of course as a gay man if he's like to be outraged over a perceived act of intolerance it must then be intolerant][did I just imply something homophobic? Well, again...]
But it's not that absurdity that gets my attention - it's Obama out doing, in the dire midst of a protracted economic downturn and a full year removed from the nitty gritty of the coming elections, out doing the only thing Obama does well: self promotion, indulging and preening for an incestuous press, massaging perceptions of his enlightened loftiness to dullard voters too vapid it seems to realize he's more celebrity to them now than president - this is the man's only proven gift, talent, and apparently the only thing he really cares about in the political sphere - and what dumbfounds me is how it is only now after three failed years as president that people are finally starting to wake up and notice - the man's all hat and no cattle - well, maybe I should be cautious here - I'm not exactly sure that he's merely an egoist whose only real goal was to be the first black [sort of black] president and glory in the renown and fame that would then fall his way from that historical comeuppance of ye olde colonialist bastards - and I think jointly along those lines as a secondary motivation he wanted or fancied to be seen as a global transformative personality - not so much because he believed in a world changed for the better but rather that he believed in a world that honored him for offering his services in the ostensible improving of it - I mean, I tend to think that's his real game, but I'm not entirely sure those were his prime motives - cause it certainly is possible that he indeed is or sees himself as an uber lefty activist that has expertly conned his way into uber power and avows and swears and pledges that just so long as he remains in the big chair giving big speeches that keep the blinkered masses all awed into submission by his utter wonderfulness that the revolution will surely come, surely it will - he could be less superficial egoist and more cunning revolutionary, I can't say with absolute certainty that's not the case - although one could certainly safely opine that the cunning revolutionary is almost always as well a flaming egoist.
