The November 2012 presidential election has evolved into a mud slinging contest with neither candidate offering concrete proposals to remedy America's ailing economy. Moreover, given that we live in an age of narcissism, the hollow nature of the election has created an opportunity for clowns like Sarah Silverman to fill the vacuum and seek to occupy center stage.
In 2008 I recall Silverman appearing in a video in which she informed us that Obama is good for Israel. Well, notwithstanding Hillary's visit to Israel this week as part of a pre-election charm campaign, Obama has refused to show his face in Tel Aviv, despite visits to Cairo, Riyadh and Istanbul. Then, too, there were his attempts to win over Iran and Syria by ignoring their barbarous behavior while concurrently ostracizing Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. In short, Israelis are wary of what awaits them should Obama win a second term.
Well, Sarah's 2008 video was tepid and prim compared with her most recent clip, in which she offers to "scissor" Jewish casino magnate Sheldon Adelson if he will contribute to Obama rather than Romney.
Personally, I would have no interest in being "scissored" by Sarah. As far as I'm concerned, she should go "scissor" herself.
But more to the point, were Sarah to care, while President Obama sought to placate Tehran and Damascus, Iran continued with its nuclear weapons development program and its threats to annihilate Israel. At the same time, Syria expanded its chemical weapons capacity and engaged in a savage campaign to silence enemies of the Assad regime, which has cost more than 15,000 lives.
But I'm certain Sarah doesn't care. It's all about her.

ReplyDeleteOf course.
Me being me, I can't stop here. I am sick and tired of barbaric narcissistic bozos on drugs electing presidents, "educating"/demoralizing youth, insulting decent and educated citizens.
ReplyDeleteI didn't acquire a doctorate and several masters (including one in Jewish history) to be instructed by pre-school drop-outs how to vote, how to view the world, whom to admire or despise.
This is madness.
Bozos like Silverman and Barr (Roseanne) should be in some bozohouse and never let out.
Sorry, everyone gets to vote, or do you favor Republican sponsored voter supression laws?
DeleteWait a moment. Everyone gets to vote, BUT does everyone get the same amount of air/print time these indecent bozos get. Absurd question - a response to absurd statement.
ReplyDeleteNo, I don't favor Republican sponsored voter suppression laws. The fact that Republican politicians are bad doesn't mean that Democratic politicians (and their lackeys) are good.
I know better than that - you don't.
Ad-homenim attacks? If that's what you learned in school you can have it.
DeleteWell, what a comical response.
