10 Reasons Why Obama Represents Business As Usual

1. Obama supports tough diplomacy (and admires George H.W. Bush’s advisers)

2. Obama bashes Vietnam War-era activists (and those opposed to imperialist wars of aggression and occupation)

3. Obama loves Israel (and defends atrocities committed by the apartheid state)

4. Obama favors eviscerating the Fourth Amendment (and empowering federal agencies to implement authoritarian surveillance policies)

5. Obama supports the death penalty (and voted to expand the list of death-eligible crimes)

6. Obama makes terrorist threats against other nations (and will increase the size of the military)

7. Obama is fond of Joe Lieberman (and even campaigned for him in 2006)

8. Obama favors fighting drug wars in Latin America (and building fences along the U.S.-Mexican border)

9. Obama votes for every Iraq war appropriation bill in the Senate (and will keep troops in Iraq or elsewhere in the region to carry out strikes if al Qaeda attempts to build a base within Iraq)

10. Obama loves courting power in Washington (will do nothing to disappoint or alienate the ruling elite)
