I think all the notice of Obama's Messianic label, applied by his sheep, is an excellent example of Dutch paying attention to things outside his sphere. Own it, dude... he's your Messiah... don't hate on Dutch for your god's failures. - - - Updated - - - Long ago I read a book about that very thing. It's really funny how many people who seem so determined to convince people there is no God... are often worshipping other things instead. They'll all deny it, of course.... they have to. Often they don't even realize it.
it is why most if not all communist regimes try to get its population to abandon religion so they will worship the state instead

Yeah, I've noticed. I like Submarine, and have no problem when he or anyone else posts only a link. Doesn't matter which "side" they are on. They have a reason for it, so take it for what it is, or ignore it. It is often all that is needed to be said, for that poster, in that response. I do the same with memes sometimes... but I sense someone putting a stop to that. Seems like someone is getting a bit "edit-happy" is all....which of course would never apply to certain people. This will of course be deleted as soon as it's noticed... but I sense a ban coming for even saying this I'll live.
That was covered in the same book. It is strikingly similar to the left trying to remove everything "Christian" from the schools and government... while at the same time denouncing anyone and everyone who dare speak against their President. People worship different things..... but everyone worships something. Which many of them will now deny.....
liberalism is a theology a belief not based on facts or empirical evidence not so much different then a religion but for the theology/beliefs to work it cant have any competition any differing beliefs
Walters may be the only big public figure who has copped to the Messiah complex that the childish morons on the left had about Obama but undoubtedly the mass delusion was quite real. http://michellemalkin.com/2008/06/08/obama-the-lightworker/ The next time leftists try to tell you are smart they are remember how they swallowed the snake oil and then smiled, licked their lips and asked for more.
She's too stupid to even realize that what she's actually tasting while kissing President Ball-less Mommy Pants' arse is Putin's "leavings"....
Certainly in the future Democratic Party voters might insist that the potential future president actually have a meaningful background of national level equivalent experience and even -- dare might one dream -- of at least some significant accomplishments aside from having voted 'Present' all the damn time as a State Senator and then having spent only 140 days as a first term U.S. senator actually performing his duties. Meh . . . but again, maybe not. I mean that WAS a speaking voice to get Obamagasmic leg tingles over . . . and in leftwinger world, apparently that counts for very nearly everything of any real importance.
Jesus long ago advised us to feed the poor. Why are you blaming him because people ignore the message? Seems like misplaced anger. That's what people who have never worn glasses say. You might as well wear leg braces because polio victims are hip.
If he was white.... they would have cared more about experience and credibility. All they cared about was getting their "first". Same reason we will see the "first" female in '16.
Oh 2016 is probably going to be an absolutely riotous hoot for us political junkies. But the question that really intrigues me is not so much 'has the Left learned a non-emotions-based lesson where Obama is concerned' but if an equivalent charismatic (all image and no meaningful experiences) type on the Right were to rise in 2016, would countless GOP voters similarly go off the logic-rails and vote their emotions rather than along commonsense lines?

If Obama were a white Republican, conservatives would be hailing him as the messiah.
Just a coupla things.... first, all those things are super awesome, but honestly, I expected more from the second coming of the son of God. second, I dont think its a good idea for you to be bragging about obama providing material support to known al queda affiliated terrorist in Libya. That kinda think is commonly referred to as "treason"
Not at all. - - - Updated - - - It wouldn't be a good idea and it would be false. Hence your making it up.
Yeah... I don't see it. There is no way the GOP would overlook the abilities of a candidate and settle for celebrity instead. It's a tough road for a Republican to make it to the front (despite McCain making it ). On the left, it's a different story. Obama breezed through with not an ounce of experience to back him... and Hillary is a predetermined shoe-in. Not because of performance, either. The DNC has her acceptance speech written already.
I knew that would be the first response. Both of them were governors. Both of them had the experience and ability. Neither of them were 3 year senators, who just voted "present" all the time... whose only experience lied in organizing a community. Or a SOS who bailed when the kitchen was getting too hot. So, no. .
No, obama provided material support to know terrorists aka al queda, the same al queda group whose flying their flag over the libyan court house, and the same al queda group who assassinated our ambassador, for a "youtube protest" Thats why obama and pals lied to the American people
Prove it. - - - Updated - - - Neither the actor nor the president's son had any experience in foreign matters or with the federal branch of government. Obama was a Senator. So, no.
Both had LEADERSHIP SKILLS. Both had EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE. Obama was a donut on both metrics. He didn't and still doesn't know dick about leading or running and organization. But speechifyin', he's aces.
