I try to avoid hit pieces on Democrats, particularly in times such as these, in which electing Democrats is of monumental importance.

But when I heard about this, I knew I had to act fast, so that people truly understand the sort of evil we are dealing with here.  I'm not talking about the kind of ignorance-fueled, delirious evil currently on the throne in the White House, or the calculating, sadistic evil oozing from the Veep.  This sort of evil has ancient roots, and because it is very difficult to detect, it is one of the most sinister traits known to man.

Please, see below, before we make a colossal mistake.

The evil associated from being left-handed has its roots in the Bible, and before.  In the last supper, Judas sat to the left of Jesus, and we all know what sort of fellow Judas was.  Satan was also to the left of God before his attempted coup and subsequent damnation.  From there, religions were divided into "Right-hand Path", such as Christianity, and "Left-hand Path", such as Satanism.

In the Bible, the preference towards the right over the left is a dominant theme.  For example:

   And he shall separate them one from another,
   as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats.
   And he shall set the sheep on his right,
   but the goats on his left.
   — Matthew 25: 32-33

These examples of evil being on the left contributed to the origin of the word sinister.

  1. threatening or portending evil, harm, or trouble; ominous: a sinister remark.
  1. bad, evil, base, or wicked; fell: his sinister purposes.
  1. unfortunate; disastrous; unfavorable: a sinister accident.
  1. of or on the left side; left.

Sinister- the Latin word for 'left'.  Left is evil.

For those of you who may realize that this is only one example, and that ancient Romans might just have been unjustly prejudiced towards left-handed people, think again.  This conclusion is not found only in Romantic languages.

  • In German, the word for left is links.  The adjective link, based on that word, means devious.

  • In Chinese, the word for left means improper, and, like in many cultures, children are forced to learn to write right-handed, so they are not conspiring with the devil.

  • The Inuit believed that left-handed people were sorcerers.

The phrase that we know of has "two left feet," meaning clumsy, really means you have two bad feet, and is mirrored in the Dutch twee linkerhanden hebben, literally "to have two left hands", which also means being clumsy.

So, left is evil, and those who are left-handed do evil deeds (such as Osama bin Laden and Adolf Hitler).

Why am I telling you all this?

BARACK OBAMA IS ALSO LEFT-HANDED!!!

So, unless you want another bin Laden or Hitler as President of the United States, DO NOT VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA!

Thanks for playing along.
