Moloch the Plutocracy high society correspondent, Dutch Buckley, reports on the the goings on among the Noblesse Obligé, those beautiful billionaires that make life so worth living.
Dutch Buckley (Charlotte, NC) The Democratic National Convention concluded on Thursday night with an uninspired speech by President Barack Hussein Obama, but on Wednesday night, former President William Jefferson Clinton addressed the crowd with a speech the liberal media is calling a “masterful work of oratory.” I would hardly call a speech that was so dependent on facts a masterful work of anything but nitpicking.
I attended the convention with my dear friend Alastor Balberith, Chairman of the political action committee Patriots for American Families United for National Security and Freedom in Restoration of Faith. And I have to say without corporate sponsors the event isn’t half as jovial as the Republican convention. We watched the Clinton “speech” from a monitor in catering because we could take full advantage of the Pule cheese.
Clinton used his undeserved moment in the spotlight to spout fact after fact of how the Republicans, in particular vice Presidential candidate, Rep. Paul Ryan, had misrepresented the truth at their brilliant convention. What Democrats and Mr. Clinton fail to realize is politics in no way depends on facts to garner support from the American people. Politics is salesmanship plain and simple, and one would think a politician as experienced at rhetorical subterfuge as Clinton would understand this key concept.
On Tuesday night, Michelle Obama wowed the convention with what amounted to a self-congratulatory pat on the back as she touted the so-called “accomplishments” of her father and her husband, but like Clinton, Mrs. Obama failed to adequately spin a convincing sales pitch. Although the liberal media gave Mrs. Obama high grades for her boring display of egomania, former President Clinton was by far the favorite of the left wing punditry.
One of the reoccurring themes in Clinton’s speech was “shared prosperity and shared responsibility.” While it is easy to criticize this unrealistic notion by pointing out the fact that we will all share the responsibility of paying for President Obama’s out of control tax and spend presidency, and I still get a bad taste in my mouth saying “President Obama,” I will instead focus on the assault on the free market made by Bubba Clinton’s ideas of “shared prosperity.”
Any true American has capitalist blood running through his veins, and would have no problem comprehending the basic natural truth that there must always be winners and losers, and that competition is the single most important facet of any stable capitalist society. Clinton would like us all to believe that we are somehow better off in a society based on collectivism. How can any decent hardworking American believe that competing with his neighbor is somehow counterproductive to attaining true liberty and freedom? After all, our nation was made great by people trying to gain more material possessions than the guy next door. This is what makes America exceptional.
I could address the senile rantings of Joe Biden, or the ponderous ideological musings of Elizabeth Warren, but not one of these unbearable displays of socialist rhetoric, not even Obama’s thinly veiled promotion of Marxist doctrine came close to the recrementitious nitpickery of Bubba Clinton.
Mr. Balberith and I were fortunate enough to talk with distinguished journalist and FOX News contributor, Charles Krauthammer, and political mastermind, author, and FOX News contributor, Dick Morris, in catering as Clinton finished his speech. When asked if he had enjoyed any aspect of the convention, such as the Pule, Mr. Krauthammer replied that he was suffering from irritable bowel syndrome, so he could not try the cheese, and shared his disappointment with the lack of marketing in the convention. Dick Morris remarked, “The Republican convention is to Disneyworld what the Democratic convention is to Food Bank Day at the community center.”
On the last night of the convention, some security issues arose, and many convention attendees were locked out of the arena. While we were grateful the hoi polloi were barred from the event, we still found little to enjoy, as Obama sufficiently bored us with his bromidic elocution, and we could not have a drink, because the bar was closed early.
I hope the Democrats find a sufficient means of entertain in the next four years, so that I will have a reason to attend their convention, when they nominate President Romney’s opponent.
