Obama the Fallen: Enter The Scandal

Nothing sounds quite like the noise made by those who are perceived to be divine as they crash to earth with a reverberating thud; the sound resonates all the more when those they believe to be a god are revealed to be mere mortal. All false gods must endure the day when, in front of the entire world, they are forced either through malice or some fault of their own to exhibit to all who are living that they are not what they have been proclaimed to be. This, to those who venerated the fallen, represents a devastating paradigm shift that forever alters their perception of events to follow. Some refuse to believe, holding true to their religion in hopes that somehow the one they once held in such reverence would miraculously disprove all that their eyes had betrayed; this never happens, for once the god-like have fallen they can never again attain the heights at which they once soared. Others lash out at those who have rent their idol and brought forth such distressing revelations for them to behold; these are the most dangerous of sorts for through their zealotry any number of violent results may arise from the depths of their retribution and despair. Still others sit in silence, pondering all that they have observed, incapable of processing everything that has passed before their eyes; they become numb and simply tune the whole thing out and proceed as if nothing had happened. These are of the worst specie of fool, for to deny the truth when plainly revealed betrays the capacity of a man; showing himself to be both blind and shallow.


Oh how Mr. Obama must feel as he sits amongst the flame and ruin of the Blagojevich Governorship, his well tailored image in tatters and the diadem now fallen from his head. Yes, he will protest and ply his case before the court of public opinion, but alas the die has been cast, the veil lifted. No longer can his most ardent of admirers continue to revel in the unholy glow of their now tarnished idol as to do so would demonstrate their obstinacy as well as their fanaticism. Obama has now been revealed to be human, complete with all the loathsome vestiges that must accompany the mortal throughout this life. Never again can anyone be expected to believe that he is a politician above all politicians, oblivious all of the worldly temptations prone to that profession. No he is just like the other politicians; embroiled in incestuous political associations that were corrupt from their inception. Nay he is no god; he is a mere mortal just like all the rest and more imperfect than most.


And what of this criminal whose association with Obama initiated his fall? What sort of man would openly solicit the exchange of political power for his personal financial gain? There is no better display of the contempt held by our political adversary towards this nation’s political institutions than this. Can it be said that money does truly corrupt when it has been demonstrated that its powers to do so can so easily be trumped by political ambition and the power to anoint? These people do not, nor have they ever believed in the supremacy of democratic institutions and the responsibilities inherent in their administration. They are snakes amongst men; willing to connive and deceive so as to further exploit the authority granted to them by their constituents. It must be remembered that these are the same liars who are so quick to assault those who vigorously peruse the accumulation of capital through honest means. This is the height of hypocrisy for it speaks to the core of our differences. They attack the capitalist and besmirch his reputation out of contempt for his successes, all the while behind closed doors they are selling out the republic for the proverbial thirty pieces of silver. You tell me of which is the worse. These wretches symbolize all that we despise as free men amongst a nation populated with such vile leaders.

How many of us stood before the body politic and proclaimed that this man, Obama, was a product of his associations with other men and his actions could be predicted by the philosophies held by these mentors? Have we not been proven correct? And if not decisively so, then at least have our protestations not been validated? This is precisely the sort of outrage that we predicted when so many about us refused to open their eyes. Scandal leaves a stain on a man, on which he man never remove, carrying it until his final days. He will never again be viewed by his proponents in the same manner that he has enjoyed here to for, unless of course their sycophantic nature precludes them from opening their eyes. Sadly this is most likely the case.
