Friday's Rant: Vampires, Mummies, Cultists and Obama

The editorial staff here at the Iowa Blog Cabin has yet to endorse a candidate for president. We're carefully considering each option before we make a decision. But before we do that there's something important that needs to be said...about some - perhaps way to many - of Obama's supporters. Don't take this the wrong way, but they're beginning to scare me. Seriously.

It's one thing to tell me, "I'm voting for Obama because..." and then go on to list a number of things you "hope" and "believe" he's going to "change," but it's quite another to be a cultist. And quite frankly, that's what many of them are becoming.

Oh, but don't take my word for it. Exhibit #1:



This poor, hapless, state senator, to me, represents far too many Obama supporters. Troubling as it is, it's only the beginning. And over the last few months, has only gotten worse. Worse to the point that a quasi-religion has formed around Obama - by supporters that really have no idea who, what and why they are supporting what they are. Exhibit #2:



Spooky. But hey, at least the people that brainwashed these kids stuck in something about what Obama's wants to do with healthcare - as misguided as it is. It gets worse, however. Like the children of some third-world communist dictatorship, many Obama cultist have trained their children to sing their praise for the "great leader" in unison and harmony. Exhibit #3:



Friends and neighbors, I'm not trying to, ahem, preach to you or anything. We here at the Iowa Blog Cabin believe in ideas that lead to truth - not relativism. Truth that is carefully examined, bathed in facts, evidence and rational thought.

All I'm saying is this...If you're going to vote for Obama, great - I'm happy for you. But if you're going to try and convince me that I should vote for him and all you have is some vague "hope" talking about how you "believe" he's going to "change" things - and then proceed to bitch about George W. Bush, all the while providing me no tangible evidence of things he's DONE and why you support him - you need to go and reexamine a few things. No offense.

Breathe in, breathe out...this week's rant is over.
