So, if history is any indicator.......

[Warph]

I am not prejudiced. Far from it. What I am—or, I should say, who I am—is a man who loves his country so deeply that he is unwilling to stand idly by while our nation allows itself to be completely annihilated by another incoming comet.

Have we learned nothing from the tragic events of 1998, when, under the watch of President Morgan Freeman, this nation was plunged into chaos, and hundreds of millions of people died at the hands of the deadly Wolf-Beiderman space rock? The mere fact that this country is even considering putting another black man, Barack Obama, in the Oval Office proves that we have not.

We can't deny the facts, people. All we will get by electing an African-American is Texas-size space particles crashing into the Earth's surface, mega-tsunamis that barrel into the Appalachian Mountains, and 6.6 billion dead people.

I'm not suggesting that President Freeman was directly responsible for the creation of the Wolf-Beiderman comet or its Earth-bound path. That would be ridiculous. What I am saying is that under the watch of a black man that comet destroyed the entire Eastern seaboard.

So, if history is any indicator, a vote for Barack Obama in 2008 is essentially a vote for the complete and total obliteration of the human race.  Don't we owe it to our children, and our children's children, to use this upcoming election to guarantee the Earth's existence rather than dooming it for eternity?

To even risk putting Mr. Obama in a position where he would insist, as past black presidents have, that our nuclear arsenal is powerful enough to divert the incoming comet would be foolish, to say the least.  Any decision like that would only break the fast-approaching space rock into two very powerful asteroids, both of which would end up heading straight for Earth, leaving all of us who aren't on the small list of people picked to live in the government-sponsored protective caves to burn, drown, or die while in the arms of our estranged fathers.  The only difference is, this time around, the late astronaut Robert Duvall will not be alive to save millions of lives by conducting a suicide space mission to destroy the larger of the two asteroids before it enters the Earth's atmosphere.

In my book, any possible repeat of this extinction-level event is reason enough not to elect another African-American president.  Consider that later that same summer, just two months after the first deep impact, this very country once again faced Armageddon in the form of another comet hurtling toward Earth.  In this instance, under the watch of a white president who sort of looked like an older Dennis Quaid, that catastrophe was avoided entirely.

As if that is not enough, history shows us that, besides carrying the baggage of a guaranteed asteroid strike, black heads of state also give terrorists extra motivation to destroy the United States.  During the presidency of "24's" David Palmer, there were no fewer than four nuclear bombs smuggled into this country. That's four more than under any white president.  Though we should have known better than to elect President Palmer in the first place (he was elected three years after President Freeman left office), the U.S. populace made him the commander in chief because it was swayed by then-Senator Palmer's commitment to change, hope, his no-nonsense approach, and his ability to inspire.  Sound familiar?

Asteroids and nuclear bombs—that's what this nation can expect from an Obama White House.

Need I even mention that former President Chris Rock and his administration's slogan was "The only thing white is the house!"  Though this attitude broke down the stuffiness typically associated with proper White House decorum, President Rock's laissez-faire approach not only made a mockery of the office at home, but made the United States look like a joke abroad.  Sound familiar?

I concede that the United States has had a competent African-American president in the huge black guy from the "The Fifth Element," who did great things for this country by keeping the evil Mr. Zorg at bay. But that is years from now. There is no denying that by 2236, when we have flying taxicabs, this country will be ready for a black president.  But until then, if we want life in this great land to continue as we know it, we owe it to ourselves to make the right choice and re-elect Kevin Kline.

You know what?  That is just about the way most people view what is happening this year.. Either people are so upset, frustrated and totally disgusted... or you look at the whole situation with tongue in cheek.

Me? I'm a swirling combination of all of it..

[pam]

Lol, I just sit there shakin my head and thinkin"God, the next four years are gonna suck"

[sixdogsmom]

All of the above is just a little better than all the other garbage spread on the internet about Senator Obama. At least most should recognize this as tongue in cheek, I hope! Some will not, that is the danger. 

[pam]

surely there isn't anybody out there who thinks morgan freeman ever was president lol. might be better off if  they all voted for kevin kline tho although I thought Beau Bridges did a good job with the earthquake

You might be surprised, have you ever watched those man on the street questions?  Especially on history! It is astounding some of the answers you hear. Education dollars wasted I think.

[pam]

Lol, I know what you mean about those man on the street surveys, boggles my mind the stuff people DON"T know. Not to change the subject but I just now heard somethin that I couldn't believe and that is that people are payin money to come burn off pastures up in that neck of the woods! From foreign countries even, is that for real?

[flo]

  don't know if it's true or not, but your bro-in-law could have used some of them yesterday lol

[pam]
