my life as a artist
obama osama o mama can this really be the end
Saturday 22nd November 2008 7:32 PM
The symbolic value of having a black African president of the US is mighty indeed, (Doonesbury 4/11/2008; White American soldier to black American soldier 'He's half white you know' 'Hey, man' says the black guy, 'you must be so proud!'), and it's something I celebrate. It all seemed so unlikely. 'Barack Hussein Obama'. His first name has military connotations and is a synonym for aggressive jeering, his last name is halfway between 'bomber' and 'Osama' and his middle name might as well be Hitler. With a name like that, it's a hard sell, and it's no wonder the election campaign was so expensive.
Obama's election campaign was orchestrated by the famously convicted Scrabble cheat, Zbigniew Brzezinski, who was once Jimmy Carter's national security adviser, and who, in a 1998 interview, defended his part in the creation of Al Qaeda and the Taliban, (in order to draw Russia into an empire-sapping war) by saying, 'What is most important to the history of the world? The Taliban or the collapse of the Soviet empire? Some stirred-up Muslims or the liberation of Central Europe and the end of the Cold War?' I don't know, Zbiggy, but creating your own terrorist organisation and then spending billions of dollars attacking it is just plain weird.
Although I'm happy to have a black man in the White House, and grateful for the heartening image it presents, and the message it sends out to the world, I'm not convinced, in practical terms, he's going to change much at all (although, out of camera-shot, he might possibly change into a twelve-foot lizard). The US is run by a corporate dictatorship, with no concern over ethnicity, and I'm afraid that Obama might turn out to be the ultimate exercise in re-branding. New world order! Now available in brown!
Today Jack Straw, whose atrophied organs of joy hang like haemorrhoids, cancelled a comedy workshop, that was taking place in a Cambridgeshire high security prison, containing 'evil' al Qaeda terrorists. Fundamentalists, although quite good at 'da mental' stuff, often miss out on the 'fun' bit, and aren't noted for an easygoing sense of humour. I think it'd do 'em good!
Don't let your hearts harden,
be willing to pardon,
it's a sad thing to wish a man dead.
Take that Osama Bin Laden,
he's been living in my garden,
I gave him the keys to my shed.
I've said 'no more twin towers,
or abuse of dark powers',
I've been teaching him how to tell jokes,
and he's spent so many hours,
growing veggies and flowers,
he's turned out to be a really nice bloke.
He was used to being feared,
but I like to think that I've steered
him someway to being more meek,
and he still looks a bit weird,
with those eyes and that beard,
but he's quiet,
and he mows the lawn
once a week.
