I just don’t get…

By E.J. Keene

Filed Under General on Jun 7 

How a guy who repeatedly distances himself from any overtly religious references throughout a 2 year campaign (although “Messianic” is still in play), especially Christian or Muslim, can now come out and declare a vast affinity with Islam and himself a “brother” to the entire middle eastern world?

How a guy who never fails to mention that he inherited a big debt goes out and justifies quadrupling that said debt by his own ‘emergency’ actions within record time?

How a guy who doesn’t want to come across as weak and pansy-like in national defense can then consider the idea of freeing hardened terrorists into the US on tax-payer dime?

How a guy can assure the Israelis that he’s got their back when he then sanctions Iran’s nuclear ambitions as peaceful and positive?

How a guy who can declare that nuclear power is risky, unsafe, and not a future option for the US as a primary source for energy can turn around and encourage other countries to build all they want (especially the ones with the oil we will still need when it’s all said and done)?

How a guy like him can still have 60% positive approval rating?

Feel free to add to the list…

    How a guy, who claims to know the Constitution backwards and forwards, can nominate someone to the Supreme Court because she shows empathy to the downtrodden rather than justice for all. (Oh, and she’ll make better decisions than a ‘white guy’.)

    “Cult of Personality”

    Look into my eyes, what do you see?
    Cult of personality
    I know your anger, I know your dreams
    Ive been everything you want to be
    Im the cult of personality
    Like mussolini and kennedy
    Im the cult of personality
    Cult of personality
    Cult of personality

    Neon lights, a nobel prize
    The mirror speaks, the reflection lies
    You dont have to follow me
    Only you can set me free
    I sell the things you need to be
    Im the smiling face on your t.v.
    Im the cult of personality
    I exploit you still you love me

    I tell you one and one makes three
    Im the cult of personality
    Like joseph stalin and gandi
    Im the cult of personality
    Cult of personality
    Cult of personality

    Neon lights a nobel prize
    A leader speaks, that leader dies
    You dont have to follow me
    Only you can set you free

    You gave me fortune
    You gave me fame
    You me power in your gods name
    Im every person you need to be
    Im the cult of personality
    Look into my eyes, what do you see?
    Cult of personality
    I know your anger, I know your dreams
    Ive been everything you want to be
    Im the cult of personality
    Like mussolini and kennedy
    Im the cult of personality
    Cult of personality
    Cult of personality
