2008-06-18 \Barack Obama\neocon reality inversion http://www.sadlyno.com/archives/9695.html Visiting The Old Country Buffoon &ldquo;The â€˜Obama gaffesâ€™ thing is a right-wing chant of the eternal shifting Now. Its meaning is that â€˜gaffesâ€™ are a bad thing as applied to John â€œGaffer Oâ€™Blabby McGaffalotâ€ McCain, but if you take out â€˜John McCainâ€™ and substitute â€˜Barack Obama,â€™ then. . .opposite! The idea, as with all of these chants of theirs, is to repeat it a lot, winkingly for awhile, until they forget that itâ€™s just something they made up to be saucy and pugnacious. Then it becomes true, and thus are worlds created through gradual accretion. It will become a fact through which other facts can be proved. ... Plus, â€˜gave money and housingâ€™ is the best-ever framing of putting someone in prison that has ever been attempted. Did you know that the Bush administration is giving money and housing to Khalid Sheikh Mohammed? ZOMG.&rdquo;
