Hypocrites on the Left

This Metroland cover from last year's Halloween issue is a telling reminder of the double standard and hypocrisy that emanates from the left. In some ways however it has it right. The left hates Sarah Palin (perhaps because they are scared that she might actually get leverage and that her plain sensible common sense values might "horrors" resonate with the American people) and they hate Christianity (which of course is one of the motivators of Sarah Palin and other people of faith. Moreover it seems quite appropriate to depict Obama as a vampire. He sucks the blood out of people. Currently he is sucking the blood out of the economy by generating record and unsustainable debt. He is sucking the blood out of the insurance industry and the health care industry as he prepares to transform American health care into a single payer (read "rip off") system and put it under the control of yet another government bureaucracy. Do we really need another? So I think the odd thing about this is that I think in a strange sort of way it accurately depicts the left and their fears. They are vampires that suck the lifeblood out of people and who hate the light, especially the light of common sense and Christianity. Hmmm... yup!
