President Mack the Knife

By Michael Moriarty
web posted December 13, 2010

May Day would be too obvious a moment to pick for the Liberal airwaves to broadcast three of our greatest American pop stars, Sinatra, Armstrong and Darren, singing Mack The Knife, but I guarantee you, should President Barack Obama be reinstated to a second term in office, Mack The Knife will seem to be all you hear.

Bertolt Brecht, the savagely Communist playwright, sprang to his greatest American success with Louis Armstrong’s version of that legendary tribute to Communism’s Mephistopheles, Mack The Knife.

Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear
And it shows them pearly white
Just a jackknife has old MacHeath, babe
And he keeps it … ah … out of sight.

Those words are the Bobby Darren version … so, between Satchmo, Bobby and Frank you know, Communism’s theme song is a super hit sung by American superstars! Even Glenn Beck’s hero, Michael Bublé, sings it.

How more stupidly super can American superstars get?!

Freedom of speech, remember?

But Sinatra, Armstrong, Darren and now Bublé performing it?

The tributes to all four of those stars seem endless. Here.

Here.

Here.

And here.

All four of them, at one time or another, have featured and honored Mack The Knife.

Mack The Knife has actually become Communism’s version of White Christmas.

Thank God Bing Crosby didn’t sing Mack The Knife … at least, I don’t think he ever did.

Maybe in the shower.

When will the “Knife of MacHeath” no longer be out of sight?

When President Obama is elected to a second term.

Obama’s smile that we see here and its unchanging and ubiquitous availability?

Ya know when that shark bites, with his teeth, babe
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves, though, wears old MacHeath, babe
So there’s nevah, nevah a trace of red.

Frank Sinatra’s version let’s us know all the Americans chiming in to play and sing Mack The Knife!

While pumping up the Sinatra version, an offer springs up on my screen to put Mack The Knife as a ring tone on my phone!!

Wow!!!!

And they say the Icey Pee, the International Communist Party, doesn’t know how to market itself?! They have their White Christmas all ready to spring on us the second Mack The Obama is reelected. And the President’s home was Chicago!!!

Many of Brecht’s deadliest plays such as Arturo Ui and The Jungle of Cities, are set in Chicago. An early play of Brecht, written in his early twenties, Baal, is briefly described here.

The plot is encapsulated in Wikipedia as:

Baal roams the countryside, womanizing and brawling. He seduces Johanna, who subsequently drowns herself. He spurns his pregnant mistress Sophie and abandons her. He murders his friend Ekart, becoming a fugitive from the police. Defiantly aloof from the consequences of his actions, Baal is nonetheless brought low by his debauchery, dying alone in a forest hut, hunted and deserted, and leaving in his wake the corpses of deflowered maidens and murdered friends.

Years later Baal resurrects in Brecht’s imagination as the profoundly urban, sophisticated pimp, Mack The Knife.

Barack Obama’s “Robot Smile” is enshrined in this video which you must see!

What might Barack Obama as Mack be pimping with that smile?

“The fundamental transformation of the United States of America!”

And the elevation of men like the New Black Panthers to heroic stature?!

The real voice of Obama may be King Samir Shabazz.

The rainbow style, however, is all B’rack The Knife.

With the clear evidence of Obama’s manipulative genius and the preparatory rituals of Bertolt Brecht as Barack Obama’s very own prophet, the Communist version of John The Baptist, that voice in the Red wilderness of East Berlin that prepared us for the coming of the Communist Lord?

In the Christmas of 2012, following the November election, if Obama wins a second term, White Christmas will be resoundingly replaced by the Armstrong, Darren, Bublé and Sinatra versions of Mack The Knife.

And at the White House Christmas receptions you will particularly hear this version of the final verse:

Oh, the line forms on the right, babe
Now that B’racky’s back in town
Look out, old B’racky is back!

And who foolishly thought that the only prophets worth listening to were Biblical and the only advertising giants were on Madison Avenue?

Stalin’s Moscow has outdone St. Patrick Cathedral’s New York and is now closing in on the Bible’s Jerusalem.

If B’racky’s back in 2012, the Judeo-Christian Civilization will be more than on the run.

As I’ve said one thousand times at least, the Communist triumph began, not with FDR’s Progressive vision, but with the Supreme Court’s Roe v Wade Decision.

Macky and B’racky first came back as legalized abortionists.

Unwittingly … or, in some cases, very wittingly … Communist contract-hitters.
