Obama is God?

Someday, years from now, somebody will look back on this period and wonder how it came to be that our media went totally insane.  Two years ago, this would have been over-the-top parody.  Today, just another day for the State-Controlled Media.

Newsweek editor Evan Thomas brought adulation over President Obama’s Cairo speech to a whole new level on Friday, declaring on MSNBC: “I mean in a way Obama’s standing above the country, above – above the world, he’s sort of God.”

….

Thomas elaborated on Obama as God, patronizingly explaining: “He’s going to bring all different sides together…Obama is trying to sort of tamper everything down. He doesn’t even use the word terror. He uses extremism. He’s all about let us reason together…He’s the teacher. He is going to say, ‘now, children, stop fighting and quarreling with each other.’ And he has a kind of a moral authority that he – he can – he can do that.” In response, Matthews wondered: “If there’s a world election between him and Osama Bin Laden, he’s running a good campaign.” Thomas agreed: “Yes, he is.”

Three and half years to go.  I don’t think I’m going to make it.

    If we rally, if we can get Americans to reverse their light speed devolution into dumb thinking, we could put a stop to this in 2010 by electing a Republican congress. Sure, the publicans are no better, but at least we could get a partisan split and shut down government activity.

    Here's hoping.
