— Ace I was just telling someone how awesome this (old) video is is. But I couldn't find it, since Depeche Mode has gotten it taken off every site where it's appeared.
I found it again. But hosted on a site with dirty porn-type ads.
I'll link it below and hope that no inappropriate ads show up. (At the very end, there is one inappropriate ad bundled in: A racy one for Adult Friend Finder. But it's not so bad (except you know what Adult Friend Finder's all about) and you can avoid it by not letting it run to the very end.)
It's really superbly done. When it was created, it portrayed Obama's campaign as creepily messianic. It still does that, of course, but now it's also bitterly ironic: the testament of a God Who Failed.

I sense that this is happening already. The most cynical of the cool kids are throwing Barry under the bus so they can be the ones to say "I told you so", while hoping that no one remembers that they led the original parade.

I forgot Matthews said he was "new testament".
I guess their kool-aid's time release component wasn't long enough? How did they get that many people that fooled or stoned or whatever? What a bunch of tards.

"Oh, never, never can they feed themselves without us! No science will give them bread so long as they remain free. In the end they will lay their freedom at our feet, and say to us, "Make us your slaves, but feed us." They will understand themselves, at last, that freedom and bread enough for all are inconceivable together, for never, never will they be able to share between them! They will be convinced, too, that they can never be free, for they are weak, vicious, worthless, and rebellious.
[snip]
They will marvel at us and look on us as gods, because we are ready to endure the freedom which they have found so dreadful and to rule over them- so awful it will seem to them to be free."

Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Obama, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

and then
you meet me
and your whole world changes
because everything I say is everything you've ever wanted to hear
so you drop all your defenses and you drop all your fears
and you trust me completely
I'm perfect
in every way
cause I make you feel so strong and so powerful inside
you feel so lucky
but your ego obscures reality
and you never bother to wonder why
things are going so well
you wanna know why?
cause I'm a liar
yeah I'm a liar
I'll tear your mind out
I'll burn your soul
I'll turn you into me
I'll turn you into me
cause I'm a liar, a liar
a liar, a liar
I'll hide behind a smile
and understanding eyes
and I'll tell you things that you already know
so you can say
I really identify with you, so much
and all the time that you're needing me
is just the time that I'm bleeding you
don't you get it yet?
I'll come to you like an affliction
and I'll leave you like an addiction
you'll never forget me
you wanna know why?
cause I'm a liar
yeah I'm a liar
I'll rip your mind out
I'll burn your soul
I'll turn you into me
I'll turn you into me
cause I'm a liar, a liar
liar, liar, liar, liar
