Re: A Leader of the Light has arisen
I think Occam's Razor explains everyone's fascination with the guy.
Look at what the United States has endured over the last eight years:
Two stolen elections.
A false-flag terror event.
The collapse of our economic system.
The Patriot Act.
Patriot Act 2.
Use of torture.
The Iraq quagmire.
The Afghanistan quagmire.
Domestic spying.
The last eight years have been one long psycho-trauma thanks to the Bush/Cheney cabal, and country, and the world, is sick of it. I don't think its a conspiracy, I think it is a collective sigh of relief. Plus, if you are an African American or some other minority, or a woman, living in the United States, his victory represents a pretty sharp break with some of our more ugly traditions.
As for smugness - I'd be pretty smug with myself for taking on the Repubulican neo-conservative reich that has destroyed this country, and coming out on top.
