The Force is With Me
Church of the Ascending Obama
"The likes of Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, Lehman Brothers and Morgan Stanley early on paid for Obamite Church property, pulpit and pews."
Obamamania might as well be a religion. Its African American denominations are rooted in faith - not facts. In some respects the Church of the Ascending Obama's dogma is the reverse mirror of those doomsday religious sects that preach "the end is near" based on no worldly evidence whatsoever.
Like all belief systems anchored in faith and little else, the Obamites scorn hard evidence and treat bearers of facts as heretics and servants of Evil. The difference is, the doomsdayers take it as a matter of faith that the end of the world as we know it is imminent, while the Obamites rely on faith alone to predict that their spiritual leader will usher in a glorious era of "change." You can't tell the Obamites any differently, even though their Holy Man is hopelessly surrounded by and beholden to international finance capital and their global protectors, the U.S. military-industrial complex.
If African American Obamites and their purportedly "progressive" non-Black brethren would get their heads of the clouds and survey the earthly landscape, they would confront the fact that the forces opposing change are far more influential in the Obamite church than the long-suffering masses of voting congregants. The money-changers are in charge. The likes of Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, Lehman Brothers and Morgan Stanley early on paid for Obamite Church property, pulpit and pews, long before the multitudes had ever heard of Obama or had a chance to tithe a portion of their hard-earned wages to him. Obama makes regular pilgrimages to shrines of imperial hegemony like the Chicago Council on Global Affairs. There, in the bosom of the permanent corporate rulers of the United States, Obama has repeatedly pledged to increase the already obscene U.S. military budget.
"The money-changers are in charge."
Do the Lords of Finance Capital fund Obama because they desire change? No! They give millions in campaign funds now in order to secure hundreds of billions in bailouts later, when The Obama has risen. That's their idea of salvation. Do the bankers and global money manipulators seek a new dispensation for the average citizen, a break from the past? Of course not. It is they who were the architects of the mega-corruption of recent decades, and who stand to lose the most from fundamental change, real reform. Have the militarists and their factories of mass destruction been converted to "change" that any peace loving person can "believe in?" Never. They want more of the same, more money for weapons, more troops, more tools of global domination. Obama blesses their gruesome enterprises - a benediction for the Anti-Changers.
The only change desired by the rulers of the United States, is a change of face, a new-and-improved packaging of the same old corporate domination and imperial lawlessness. And if not Obama, they will be happy with John McCain. The only thing the average Church of the Ascending Obama parishioner can expect on that Great Gettin' Up Inauguration Morning...is a cheap prayer cloth.

If Obama loses significant black support .. it's over.
What About the Black Community, Obama?
