Will probably check the album out, but a little surprised at the video

maybe im drunk.....maybe im reading a little too much into the images shown, but still cant work out the purpose for the Obama image at the time it is shown in corolation with the lyrics...

dont get me wrong, I get the comparison between Sadam, china and hitler, but why show Obama at that point in the clip?
lyrics for the song below

Listen close to hooves you hear
Are thunders coming dread
John the Revelator's dream
Had seen a terror vision
Of the spirit led
With wrath to reign
And with slaves to flame
They kneeled and sealed a kiss
Plagues and pain and fiery rain
And blaspheme on his lips

Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals
A pale rider and his horses sing
Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 the rising beast
Bears the mark of Babylon to be

Arising with the beast a sea of men
A bloody moon of red
A whore of Babylon to bleed the seed
And make 'em take the mark upon their heads

They bowed and kneeled a mark to seal
Their souls unto a kiss
With fire and flames and with
Souls to claim
And rise from the abyss

[Revelation 13]
And I stood upon the sand of the sea
And saw a beast rise out of the sea
Having ten horns and seven heads
Ten crowns upon his head
Who is like unto the beast?
(now obama is seen for the first time aside from the initial montage)
Given his mouth great things to speak
If any man has an ear
Let him hear, let him hear
 
From Wikipedia:

In November 2008 [Blackie Lawless] endorsed John McCain in the Presidential election saying, "I will vote for McCain, not because I believe in all he stands for, but as a mandate against Obama, to keep him from becoming President. Yes, I will cling to my guns and my religion, and continue to believe in the Constitution, the Cornerstone of our society and trust that this is STILL a "Government of the People, By the People, For the People".

Lawless is one of these guys who thinks that Obama is trying to somehow dismantle the US, hence why he's in the clip at that point.
 
Blackie's best album in 20 years.
Was Dominator a stinking pile of shit then? I reckon there's not a lot of difference between Dominator & Babylon. However, I agree Blackie has hit the straps again, his Last Command possibly ;)
 
Dominator was good, but this is better.
I dunno man I'm not 100% sure about that but you might be right, Dominator could've done without the Heaven's Hung in Black reprise though. Babylon needs more listens at my end for any further debate. Lets hear some more opinions!
