This is a post to comply with a request made by a reader.

That is, it’s a post that exists for one reason, and one reason only.

That reader (you will have to read the comments in the July 4 post to find out who I am talking about) mentioned that it was a shame that a picture of one of the most important documents in the history of the country had to be positioned in such a way that it was so close to such a socialist.

It is my hope that this post will create enough space between the pictures that there is no offense to the upper.

(I just checked, and you can still see both pictures at once.

I will have to keep adding lines, until that no longer happens.)

(Man, I can’t seem to add enough lines.

I’ll keep working on it, though.

Wouldn’t want to offend the Declaration.)

(One more set ought to do it.

Last time I checked, the two pictures were apart by one click-roll of the mouse wheel.

Since I use Firefox, I’m going to add a few more lines, just in case someone else has a different resolution or a taller monitor, or another browser, that allows both to be seen at the same time.

I sure hope this is enough.)

Full disclosure: I wrote this post on Saturday, July 5, 2008.

My fellow Americans:

As your future President I want to thank my supporters, for your mindless support of me, despite my complete lack of any legislative achievement, my pastor’s relations with Louis Farrakhan and Libyan dictator Moamar Quadafi, or my blatantly leftist voting record while I present myself as some sort of bi-partisan agent of change.

I also like how my supporters claim my youthful drug use and criminal behavior somehow qualifies me for the Presidency after 8 years of claiming Bush’s youthful drinking disqualifies him. Your hypocrisy is a beacon of hope shining over a sea of political posing.

I would also like to thank the Kennedy’s for coming out in support of me. There’s a lot of glamour behind the Kennedy name, even though JFK started the Vietnam War, his brother Robert illegally wiretapped Martin Luther King, Jr. and Teddy killed a female employee with whom he was having an extra marital affair and who was pregnant with his child. And I’m not going anywhere near the cousins, both literally and figuratively.

And I’d like to thank Oprah Winfrey for her support. Her love of meaningless empty platitudes will be the force that propels me to the White House.

Americans should vote for me, not because of my lack of experience or achievement, but because I make people feel good. Voting for me causes some white folk to feel relieved of their imagined, racist guilt.

I say things that sound meaningful, but don’t really mean anything because Americans are tired of things having meaning. If things have meaning, then that means you have to think about them.

Americans are tired of thinking. It’s time to shut down the brain, and open up the heart. So when you go to vote in the primaries, remember don’t think, just do. And do it for me.

Thank You.
Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.

What are those, and why should we be aware of them?
