Like so many liberals, numerous reactionaries appear to believe that Obama's not a willing servant of capital and empire, but that he harbors a secret self, saying what he must in order to be elected.  Come Inauguration Day, the Real Obama emerges, which for liberals is a progressive patriot channeling FDR, and for right wingers, a treasonous surrendercrat, wiping Iranian and North Korean asses with Old Glory.

Gasp! Are you suggesting the free market isn't free????

Not only is it not free, the so-called free market is just another feudal system. Not really. I just wanted to say that. Don't mind me. These aren't the 'droids you're looking for. Move along.
