Tom Delay is connecting all the dots; Barack Obama is a Marxist Theologian

I love this intercourse between Tom Delay and Chris Mathews.

As Crooks and Liars quotes:

"He must agree with the Marxist theology of black liberation theology."

"I tagged Barack Obama as a Marxist months ago. [...] He's a Marxist, or a socialist at best."

He claims that Barack Obama is a Black Marxist Theologian.

Ahem. I want to know how Obama can reconcile Marxism with a Creator.

He says Obama is more left than Gore and Kerry combined. How you transmute a quanlity like 'liberalism' into a quantity.

Also, the real Barack Obama is coming out. Although, why he would come out before the election, I don't know. That's some October surprise.

I think Tom Delay was one of those kids who had one of those connect the dots books, and he didn't just connect the dots that made out the outline, but made a big scribbley mess connecting EVERY SINGLE DOT. Come on guys. The consensus seems to be that McCain is losing because the Republicans could never rally around a single narrative. I think they could switch things around if they just say Barack Obama is MC Ren.

But seriously, when the Republicans lose (as Sarah Palin is counting on,) everyone is going to blame McCain. And he has been running a truly incompetent campaign (just think of what he'd do to this country?--it'd be worse than Bush, though Bush set the bar.) I doubt that the Right and the Washington Press Corps will give the credit due to Obama for running a brilliant campaign. As a wanna-be Marxist Theologian (which conflicts with my Jesus wanna-be aspirations, not to mention my Jesus aspirations), I find Obama too conservative for my tastes. I mean, he taught at the law school at the University of Chicago, the most prestigious right-wing law school in the US. But I can certainly appreciate his political aptitude. I think he's brilliant, and if he loses, it will be due to a conspiracy.

SO SAYS I.

Abby Normal, Pittsburgh, Sentimental Thoughts

I'm in Pittsburgh now, staying with Wendi and Jason; this is after staying a few days with The Errorist and H4ckERDEiTy X in New York. These have been very emotional days. And no doubt when I get to Denver, it will continue to be. I really feel a mental circumnavigation, as if my entire mental and emotional universe has slowly whirled around on its axis.


And I've decided, as blogmaster, that if you are a contributor to this blog, PLEASE feel free to post more, and whatever you want to post about. (Where are you BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE??) I will supply the anger and sloppy. And you can supply the anecdote. Although I feel that maybe a new blog that allows for diverse voices should be started, and I am even contemplating a discontinuation of this one because of my ambivalence towards it. The new blog might be called ZTN. And it will be more of an online magazine. We can put stories, poetry, drawings, pictures and music up on it. But I'm not sure.

But in the mean time, feel free to share your views.

Maybe I will always need this blog. It seemed so right when I started it long ago. As I sit staring at this screen in a Pittsburgh cafe, I feel drained and a bit empty. But I feel ready to really start getting writing again. It was fantastic to play music. My gracious hosts in NY have a piano, and The Errorist and I jammed a lot, and HDX played her earthy bass and it was just very healing. And now I'm with my Boho friends in Pittsburgh, reminiscing about our attempts of being Bohemians, living on our credit cards. And now everybody has jobs. Not me, but I'll be getting one again soon enough. No longer boho. But no longer sobro. (That means so broke.)

Stay tuned for pictures of naked old men.
