Book Review: "Barack Obama: Son of Promise, Child of Hope"

As usual, my busy schedule does not allow me the luxury of reading books. But I can nevertheless assure you that this is THE book that you want your child to read.

I don't recall anything notable about children's books about, say, John Kerry or Al Gore, but I can assure you that "Son of Promise, Child of Hope" is worth it!

The book is so penetrating, so compassionate, and so poetic that I am willing to accept that there might be a God who has been guiding Barack Obama along his monumental journey into our hearts. For even as the book acknowledges, God has in fact spoken with Barack. And as we know, if a child's book says it, then it must be true.

For his journey is our journey, one of overcoming oppression, overcoming racism, and overcoming the slave-chains of the corporate war-whore Zionists and their capitalist lackeys.

In a few weeks, all of us will be the happy subjects of God, as He reveals himself through the body of President Barack Obama. President today, President tomorrow, and hopefully President for Life. (No, not that kind of life, you murderous Christianists.)

God for Life.

I am ready to obey.

Teachers: Please please please persuade your school to spend its budget on several copies of this book for each child, so that he/she (or any combination of transgendered children) can have multiple copies for home, the playground, or wherever their National Service detail happens to be.

I have already filed a lawsuit with my university to replace its library with a new "Barack Obama Library" to contain nothing but this book.

Soon, the Hitler-Chimp will be replaced by God.

Religion vs. Progressivism

This table clearly shows the difference between religion and progressivism. The gulf between the two shows how far we progressives must travel to reach our goals.

Barbaric Religion	Enlightened Progressivism
Trusts an all-powerful make-believe god to make decisions to help us.	A benevolent government will make decisions to help us.
Idiotic religious rituals.	Recycling, protest marches, veganism.
God is watching and will punish you if you sin.	We are watching, and will protect the People from your hate speech.
Creationists claim that life is to complicated to have evolved; all was created by god.	Professors know that economies are too complicated to have evolved; all is created by government policies.
God knows everything.	Government committees and political leaders know everything.
God is good and merciful.	The leader is wise and kind.
Sacrifice for your co-religionists.	Give all for your community.
Enemies of god will be dealt with.	Republicans will be dealt with.
Suffering will bring rewards.	Higher taxes will bring justice.
Faith trumps reason.	Global warming is the biggest threat to Earth.
Time-wasting religious services.	Productive community meetings.
Will not integrate with people of other religions.	Mingling with beautiful diversity at the farmers market and the food co-op. Buy local.
Compels non-believers to join.	Fight for labor unions; smash the open shop.
Incoherent and meaningless religious dogma.	Sustainability, empowerment, social justice, community action, grass-roots activism, and of course, progressivism.
