Barack Obama, Come to Save the Day

From my pal, Foutsc and his buddies over at Nietzsche is Dead.



Kind of foolish our expectations of Presidents and political folks of all stripes, if we'd step back to think about it, a moment.

The lucky thing is that they can only be in office, and swimming in the waters of their own bullshit, for a short time. And then we can move on to a new Messiah.

Kind of dumb for Americans to behave this way, don't you think?

Maybe we're better off standing on our own two feet.

And expecting our government to treat us like grown-ups rather than like wards of their largesse. And power.
