Oh, God, I'm so tired of this.
This is about, what? The one millionth article on Salon trying to equate a preference for Obama as being the sign of being in the clutches of some cult-like worship of the great Obama God, and probably a closeted sexist, too?
Here is a quote from the article: "There is this Obama-mania, where these young men get glassy eyes and start spitting out vague things about how Barack Obama is going to save humanity. Really, have you seen their eyes? It's this faraway look. It's scary."
I've seen that exact same look in the eyes of some Hillary supporters. Both sides have their fanatics. So what? Why does Salon keep pushing this sexism thing over and over?
As for me, for the record, as I've said in other threads, neither Obama or Hillary should be viewed as saviors of the Progressive Voice in America. I'm weary of all this in-fighting. McCain must be defeated, preferably overwhelmingly, a tsunami of passionate rebuttal to the past eight years of total insanity. The victory should be complete and undeniable. Think of the election as hurricane Katrina. The day after the election, McCain and the whole Republican agenda should look like the Ninth Ward, and years later all these warmongering assholes should still be living in toxic FEMA trailers. THAT's what I'm hoping for in November.
THAT is the ONLY fanaticism you will see in my eyes.
