“What is it about Barack Obama that caused his vice president Joe Biden to fall asleep during the president’s speech Tuesday? […] I submit it is something quite simple — he has nothing to say. He is a boring person, the quintessential “hollow man” in the T.S. Eliot sense. He is kind of a socialist, kind of a liberal, kind of a multi-culturalist, kind of an environmentalist, kind of globalist, kind of a budget cutter — but none of them with any real commitment. Basically, he’s a vague and uncommitted person pretending to be otherwise. He is the man that voted “present”, now in the presidency. The fact that he never specified the targets of “hope” and “change” during his election was far from a campaign ploy and more typical than we ever dreamed. There never was a there there. And now, I strongly suspect, there never will be.” [emphasis added]

SNAFU: situation normal —all f*cked up. It was true during World War II. It is true today. It is hopey-dopey.
I know I've been beating a dead donkey, except that the donkey is very much alive. So the only thing to do is to keep beating it until it either destroys society or self destructs. Preferably the latter.
Our democratic society is such a glutton for punishment. It is like a poor woman, habitually abused by her overbearing idiot-husband, and unable to muster the will to end the abusive union. Elections come and go; political creatures ooze out of the woodwork with the same tired "promise them anything, but give them bullshit"; and the masochistic electorate continues to eat shit. And, worst of all, the shit-storm is usually greeted with the lament, "How did this happen?"
There is no mystery here. The Obamas of this world have been honing their tools-of-the-trade forever. And their strategy works almost every time. About once per century along comes a Washington or a Lincoln. That's it. The best and the brightest tend to keep a low profile, so as not to defile themselves in the public arena.
Do you blame them? It would take a near-saint to endure the self-absorbed hubris-driven enmity of our electorate. It may be trite, but we do, as a society, deserve the government we get.
Deal with it.
