Obama on the meaning of life
“I guess what I’ve discovered is that life doesn’t count for much unless you’re somehow giving yourself to something larger to yourself.”
Apparently the meaning of life is that we should all be ants — cogs in the great gear of “Society.” The best part of that quote is the “somehow.” It is arguably the nicest word for “by threat of physical assault and imprisonment” ever used.
It’s sort of sad that so many people are buying into Obama’s hollow message of “change” and “hope” — but then the alternative offered by McCain is essentially one of arrogance, militarism and fear. In the end, both campaigns are offering more of the same: more government intervention and less freedom. Now that’s status quo you can believe in.
