Barbara Walters: We Thought Obama Was Going To Be The Next Messiah

Barbara Walters: We Thought Obama Was Going To Be The Next Messiah By Brian Carey December 18, 2013.

Last night, in a particularly refreshing moment of candor, Barbara Walters shared her disillusion over the ObamaCare failure.

During an interview with Piers Morgan, she was asked why President Obama didn’t live up to his hype. This is a question that would not need to be directed at any conservative, because every conservative knew from the beginning that he wouldn’t live up to his hype.

“He made so many promises,” Walters said. “We thought that he was going to be I shouldn’t say this at Christmas time but the next Messiah.”

Actually, Ms. Walters should refrain from calling Barack Obama “the next Messiah” at any time, not just Christmas time.

However, we do appreciate the acknowledgement of her partisanship. She said “we”.

Of course, by “we” she means 1) anyone caught up in the excitement of a good looking Presidential candidate who was basically an empty suit back in 2008 and 2) every member of the lamestream media, including herself.

This is precisely why you don’t elect “rock stars” or worship politicians.

“We” being the leftist liberal elite, i.e., those having a mental disease.

For the media he has been a ‘messiah’.
He’s put almost 7 trillion dollars into the consumer spending the media takes their profit from.

The media, including Walters’ show, should consider him their ‘deliverer’ during the recession.

Media loves an anti-Chrisitan, gay loving, and “appointment of liberal judges” President. Obama delivers.

Thought? Did you say thought? Has a rational thought ever crossed her mind?

They will drag his corrupt putrefying leftwing failure of a carcass across the finish line and then declare his magnificence for the next five generations.

An excellent example of thinking without proper equipment.

Metallica - Leper Messiah Lyrics 5:41

Spineless from the start
Sucked into the part
Circus comes to town
You play the lead clown

Please, please
Spreading his disease
Living by his story

Knees, knees
Falling to your knees
Suffer for his glory, you will

Time for lust, time for lie
Time to kiss your life goodbye
Send me money, send me green
Heaven you will meet

Make a contribution
And you'll get a better seat
Bow to Leper Messiah

Marvel at his tricks
Need your Sunday fix
Blind devotion came
Rotting your brain

Chain, chain
Join the endless chain
Stinking by his glamor

Fame, fame
Infection is the game
Stinking drunk with power, we see

Time for lust, time for lie
Time to kiss your life goodbye
Send me money, send me green
Heaven you will meet

Make a contribution
And you'll get a better seat
Bow to Leper Messiah

Witchery, weakening
Sees the sheep are gathering
Set the trap, hypnotize
Now you follow

Time for lust, time for lie
Time to kiss your life goodbye
Send me money, send me green
Heaven you will meet

Make a contribution
And you'll get a better seat

Lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie

The Cult of Personality - Living Color

Look in my eyes, what do you see?
The cult of personality
I know your anger, I know your dreams
I’ve been everything you want to be

I’m the cult of personality
Like Mussolini and Kennedy
I’m the cult of personality
The cult of personality
The cult of personality

Neon lights, Nobel Prize
When a mirror speaks, the reflection lies
You won’t have to follow me
Only you can set me free

I sell the things you need to be
I’m the smiling face on your TV
I’m the cult of personality
I exploit you, still you love me
I tell you one and one makes three

I’m the cult of personality
Like Joseph Stalin and Gandhi
I’m the cult of personality
The cult of personality
The cult of personality

Neon lights, a Nobel Prize
When a leader speaks, that leader dies
You won’t have to follow me
Only you can set you free

You gave me fortune
You gave me fame
You gave me power in your God’s name
I’m every person you need to be
I’m the cult of personality

Conservatives know the left and how modern liberalism works. We also know well the left’s propensity for attributing intelligence and qualities that don’t exist to their political pop stars.
