"Something new brews in Berkeley: patriotic pride; Left wing looks to Obama" by Sasha Issenberg, Globe Staff | January 4, 2009
BERKELEY, Calif. - .... They did not come to challenge the system now preparing to consecrate a new regime in Washington....
Sig Heil, 'eh, lefties? You guys disgust me!
***************
After generations of finding their voice in dissidence, some on America's left wing are adjusting not only to a new, postelection comfort with patriotic symbols, but the political reality they represent. Believing in Obama after inauguration day will mean identifying with the machinery of American power.
Not that it is news, but it is time to realize that the "left" in AmeriKa is nothing but CONTROLLED OPPOSITION FLUNKIES!!
So it is UP to the "right" and the lovers of FREEDOM to carry on the fight -- AS USUAL!!!!
"There's a left-wing tradition of being systematically opposed to the US government, knee-jerk reactionary - most of our presidents have made it fairly easy to do," said Jo Freeman, author of "At Berkeley in the Sixties," a memoir of her student activism. "Those who view everything the US does as automatically suspect already have a problem doing that with Obama."
***********
Not since Franklin Roosevelt turned the federal government into an aggressive agent of liberalism - pushing the New Deal at home and confronting fascism abroad - has the left felt such a deep attachment and invested such hopes in a head of state.
Yup, MORE MYTHS for Amurkn consumption. Don't you ever tire of diarrhea milkshakes from the Zionist AmeriKan MSM, readers?
Mark Rudd, who organized campus protests in the 1960s as a national leader of Students for a Democratic Society:
"For the last eight years - and probably for much longer - most radicals have been mourning for our country. . . . Obviously the empire is not going to fall overnight, but at least there's been a popular vote that changes the direction of the last 40 years."
Really? Where?
Have you seen the cabinet appointments and Obama's subservience to Bush and Israel? Yup, nothing like a DELUSIONAL LEFTY full of crap!
"I think part of the new patriotism of the left is a function of folks recognizing how much certain things mattered to them - the Constitution, due process, separation of powers, basic legal and human rights - once they have been taken away, or at least radically threatened," said Jeremy Varon, a Drew University historian and editor of "The Sixties," a scholarly journal.
Well, WHERE the FUCK YOU BEEN, assholes??
While WE HAVE BEEN CARRYING the FIGHT, all you "leftists" have been ENABLING BUSH and his TYRANNY!!
And now you are going to EMBRACE SAID TYRANNY because he is YOUR MAN?
Hypocrites is too mild a word.
Berkeley Chancellor Robert J. Birgeneau:
"[Students] seem to have realized that working within the system is the way to do so. The Obama victory is evidence to them that that works."
What a bunch of fucking naive fools all those supposedly ejerkatud leftists are!
The SYSTEM needs to be BROUGHT DOWN and a NEW SYSTEM needs to take its place -- just as JEFFERSON SAID!
At Obama's inauguration on Jan. 20, many who have, in the past, used such occasions to rambunctiously question American power are likely to be silently saluting its transfer....
Translation: DO NOT LOOK LEFT for help in the fight for FREEDOM!!
Just like the controlled-opposition media like Olbermann, the "leftists" of AmeriKa are going to be CHEERING OBAMA'S TYRANNY in ACQUIESENCE!! Thanks for the help, assholes!!!!!!!
