Arkady's Thoughts

There has been a wave of videos modeled after the now notorious America Rising theme and their popularity is growing.  It must be the music in combination with rapid image rotation, because you could literally make any video popular. If you use this formula and stick pictures of zebras, unicorns and Teletubbies while threatening a revolution - people will cheer and run to the nearest gun store. This video however is just embarrassing and indicative that a mental plague has afflicted Massachusetts.  Most of us were mortified one year ago at the rumbling Obama train.  We were scared to see so many people move lockstep like sheep and support a man for reasons they could not explain.  We kept hearing the muffled chant of "yes we can" and "change and hope", but could not extract any information out of the unfortunate zombies awestruck by the Deity known as Obama. We have on our hands a similar phenomena, but it is happening to the ideologically opposing demographic....

In what appears to be an act of desperation the Democrats dispatched our president to rally the shell shocked liberals in voting for Coakley.  This is particularly perplexing because it would appear that every poll is suggesting that Brown is guaranteed to clinch the win - so what is Obama doing?  After stumping for Corzine in NJ and speaking on behalf of Deeds in VA, is he willing to further undermine his own credibility here in MA?  Now perhaps these losses are irrelevant to him or do not hurt his standing in any way, but a third loss in a row would suggest that the magical aura is beginning to wear off.  At one point virtually anything Obama touched would instantly turn into gold and Democrats gained an impressive majority riding his coat tails in 2008, but we are on the cusp of a major reversal in fortune. While I am not rooting for a liberal to win this coming Tuesday, whether it be Coakley or Brown, a win that could further hurt Obama's credibility will be f...

I have been somewhat silent on the whole Harry "I am a closet racist" Reid story despite the blatant double standard of the left.  I did not want to compare it to the Lott situation because I think it's different and Reid did ultimately say his racist piece in private, but how quickly he was forgiven by the black community astounded me. Although no two incidents are ever alike I think most would agree that if a Republican uttered the same words, he would be politically dismantled.     So recently Bill and Clyde of PatriotRoom wanted me to use my graphical talent to convey the Reid story graphically.   They pitched the idea and here is the result:

Check this video out!  Apparently it is being hunted down and like a persistent gnat keeps reappearing all over the Internet.  When will people learn that once on the net always on the net?  The video is powerful indeed (mostly the music) and tragic at the same time.  It first starts off suggesting that the creators were Obama supporters -something about trust and hope and change.  Now they feel betrayed.    My initial question to these people, what potent drug were you smoking/snorting/injecting during the 2008 campaign?  Obama made it very clear that he was the closest thing to Socialism that we have ever seen and you voted for him anyway!   Now you make angry videos and promise a revolution in these coming elections?   Who ever you are, do us a giant favor and stay home!  If you were too stupid to understand what Obama was going to do, then you are still too stupid to understand who to vote for.  Stay home and re...

An excellent video I wanted to share you.  Although I was patiently waiting for a "solution" or a dramatic change in tone/color the authors decided to go all the way with this one. What is particularly striking is the fascist tone via the speech and music.  Conformity is indeed requested and if we atttempt to support the third option then we are labeled fringe.  Sure there are primaries in this country, but these primaries are often dominated by the respective party machines.  Oh well, at least someone is talking about it.

This campaign has reached an absolute fever pitch and the atmosphere here in Massachusetts is electric.  I cannot remember the last time we witnessed this kind of mass hysteria over a candidate, oh wait, it was just a year ago when a black president was going to change America once and for all.  Indeed, we have our own mini-Hopenchange rumbling through the state and one emotional radio host have even hijacked Obama's favorite slogans!  Neighbors, extended family members, strangers, homeless people and co-workers are all coming out of the woodwork urging people to vote for Brown and all semblance of debate has been eradicated.  If you think only liberals can blindly worship a candidate, you are sorely mistaken. So what does a Scott Brown victory mean for us Americans? Now I have been no stranger to criticizing Brown and my facts speak for themselves, I have paid the price for going against the establishment so let us consider what the fallout will be as...

An important question to consider seeing that his entire campaign has now been focused on this one issue.  Although the legislative technicalities have already been discussed , I decided that a picture might convey the idea better.  For all the out-of-state supporters clamoring for a Scott Brown victory, this is for you! By the way, Democrats striking a deal to exempt labor unions from the Cadillac tax means that the current version will be accepted by the House - in other words, Brown's vote will be entirely and utterly useless.  At this rate a vote for Joe Kennedy, the only candidate promising to repeal ObamaCare is the only sensible solution.
