Nerds For Obama

NERDS FOR OBAMA.

Think! Use your brain meats to do it. Dateline: now. Ruinous current administration has so damaged national psyche that there is NO CHOICE AS AMERICANS but that we hold hands and stand around like a bunch of [redacted language] hippies, twinkly-eyed over notions of hope, hearts brimming, fulfillment within our grasp. Feeling like a sucker while we do it is PART OF THE LOVE. Get vulnerable, America. Wipe that moisture from your eye edges and EXPOSE THOSE VISA CARDS. That's what I did. And I disburse cash only when vital for democracy.

I do not like WALNUTS! who is also known as McCain. I do not want him to be president. If he somehow manages to get himself elected, we will have another round of terrifying Justices and escalating war. That would be bad, right? Yes, correct, bad! Electing Obama, on the other hand... the nation is instantly transformed into a magical paradise! Okay, that's ridiculous. But sane control of the military, four or eight years correcting of the badly rightward-tilted federal judiciary, and a leader who has the genuine potential to inspire a generation of Americans, to lead us towards the work and sacrifice that might make a better country for all of us: these are the guarantees. The hope that we'll see substantial progress towards national health, education reform, tax fairness, and job creation... these things are just gravy. One candidate, one president, can't realistically promise all of these things to us. But he can lead a nation. Maybe he can convince us to promise this kind of progress to ourselves. Maybe he can inspire us to see it through.

I know, I sound like I'm using my heart meats and not my brain meats. Why should any self-respecting nerd buy into this nonsense? I have one little piece of logic with which to compel you: Obama is the most talented politician of the last hundred years. He took out the most powerful brand/dynasty in Democratic politics. He convinced the national media that a black man has a viable shot at getting elected. If you like progressive politics, get behind him. The Dems have never had a better hope.

There's plenty of work to be done to see our man get sworn in. His crew has to put together a tremendously expensive education campaign to counter all the email-whispered lies (e.g., his secret musliminess, how much his wife hates America, etc etc). And they have to shine his awesome charisma into every dusty little corner of the nation. That means television, glossy flyers in the snail mails, radio noises, and every aspect of our intarwubs. It will cost. We will put the money up.

EAT IT, FORCES OF EVIL!! WE ARE ELECTING THE SUPERSTAR OF THE LEFT.

To aid! Sacrifice your own scant resources to donate towards OBAMA'S already massive fortune cabinet. The link has a big thermometer on it. To indicate hotness of donating.
