Last Best Hope on Earth

In an article published in the London Daily Mail just after the election entitled, “The night we waved goodbye to America... our last best hope on Earth,” Peter Hitchens lamented Barak Obama’s election to fill the office of President of the United States.

In the article, Hitchens stated,

“I really don't see how the Obama devotees can ever in future mock the Moonies, the Scientologists or people who claim to have been abducted in flying saucers. This is a cult like the one which grew up around Princess Diana, bereft of reason and hostile to facts.

It already has all the signs of such a thing. The newspapers which recorded Obama's victory have become valuable relics. You may buy Obama picture books and Obama calendars and if there isn't yet a children's picture version of his story, there soon will be.

Proper books, recording his sordid associates, his cowardly voting record, his astonishingly militant commitment to unrestricted abortion and his blundering trip to Africa, are little-read and hard to find.

If you can believe that this undistinguished and conventionally Left-wing machine politician is a sort of secular saviour, then you can believe anything. He plainly doesn't believe it himself. His cliché-stuffed, PC clunker of an acceptance speech suffered badly from nerves.  It was what you would expect from someone who knew he'd promised too much and that from now on the easy bit was over.

He needn't worry too much. From now on, the rough boys and girls of America's Democratic Party apparatus, many recycled from Bill Clinton's stained and crumpled entourage, will crowd round him, to collect the rich spoils of his victory and also tell him what to do, which is what he is used to.”

Obama can’t even pull the wool over the eyes of our British friends! We are the ones duped by this master illusionist! Shame on us for allowing ourselves to be seduced and elect a person unqualified and clearly not ready to provide the leadership we need in Washington.
