Warning its readers to be prepared to gag, the Scrapbook page of this week's Weekly Standard magazine recited some of the worst over-the-top reactions to The One's ascendance, starting with Time's Nancy Gibbs who opened this week's cover story by comparing Obama with Jesus: Some princes are born in palaces. Some are born in mangers. But a few are born in the imagination, out of scraps of history and hope... In the November 17 issue, she heralded (citing his full name) the greater meaning of Obama's victory:

Obama is as close to a religious experience as these people will ever get. Wonder if Bill Maher has noticed the ‘phenomenon’. . .
He’s just another politician that wants to control everything.
Yeh, well this fraud was born in a hospital in Mombasa, Kenya... unless HE can prove otherwise.
....the greater meaning of Obama's victory: ... more dead babies to start with, it goes down hill from there, if that is possible.
Destruction, decay, corruption are a forms of change.
I gotta do this.
“Some princes are born in palaces. Some are born in mangers. But a few are born in the imagination”
And some were mayhaps were not born in the US. LOL
Mods please let it slide, and thanks if you do.
Don't forget the permanent "Obama Day" that we will certainly end up with; at least we will finally have a holiday in the month of August.
At this rate, we'll probably have a whole month of celebrations around this grand event.
The Cult of The One gets scarier daily...
What a HUGE steaming pile.
This is absolutely disgusting and blasphemy. Unless the Conservatives / Republicans stop fighting among themselves, we’re in for a very long rocky ride.
LLS
okay, i am ready to puke blood....
poor woman needs a man, bad
And some are born of a jackal.
Projecting the Gid complex on to a person is scary.
This can create a situation where some could believe he can do know wrong.
Police state, no problem.
Re-education camps, no problem.
Execucte the unwilling, no problem.
After all he is God.
geesh, quick, pump some psychotropic meds in the water or the air in the states where these clowns live. this cult thing is truly beyond weird and is scary like most cults are.
The Bible talks about 3.5 years of mindless tribulations...
It’s all historicist romanticist language. Obviously the writer either is dum or just wants an easy job and appeals to an Oprah audience in need of grandiloquent word placebos to match the pseudospirit and live fiction unfolding before us.
They can take talk radio out all they want, soon cash register tabloids will look like genius next to Time mag or what not... and they’ll have to ban that along with video games.
We are witnessing the beginning of a great black hole being formed and dragging us down.
Mercy mercy, will they take the mercy hand of the right? The way they hate little babies who live to help them and support worthless whores around themselves, here goes nothing.
Kool Aid Kids.
Always follow the money.
If you loved the freedom and libety you had as an American, THANK A VETERAN
If you miss it a year from now, Thank the a$$holes that voted for Obama.
Time Mag: Obama a ‘Prince’
“When the fairies are displeased with anybody, they are said to send their elves to pinch them. The ecclesiastics, when they are displeased with any civil state, make also their elves, that is, superstitious, enchanted subjects, to pinch their princes, by preaching sedition; or one prince, enchanted with promises, to pinch another.”
(Thomas Hobbes, Leviathan 1651)
"I see stupid people"
At some point at Ayers’s kitchen table, they plotted to pry Evangelicals and other Christians from the Republican base. “Ah”, they said, we’ll promote our candidate as the Messiah... they’ll back him in droves.”
And Voila! As John Kerry would say. C’est fini! Of course, this will fall apart in short order, but they’ve activated blacks like nobody’s business. Plus Acorn, etc.. They’ll get those 40/50 million illegals registered in no time, and it won’t matter who runs next time. They’ve installed a foolproof system to hijack any and all elections.
Of course, if we get hit with another 9/11 during a national election cycle, people might wake up, but Jihadists by then will be installed in every town and hamlet with a mosque on every corner.
I always thought the gag, barf, hurl alerts were a bit over the top, funny bits of “americana”... I apologize.
Not even a “Puke, hurl, barf, mega-gastro-enteric dysentery!” would do justice to such an article.
At this point, I only hope that all this absurd adulation (something we wouldn’t want even for a good and respectable politician let alone this radical-racist mentored product of affirmative action run amok)somehow proves to have a silver lining. And that in due time (presto! Presto!) from the wuthering heights of this Media madness, he goes into a spiraling nose dive.
Forza America!! React! Wake up!!!
Ping your list.
This is Blasphemy beyond belief.
To Chessplayer - the Life of Brian is one of my favorite movies!
To those who believe Obama is the Messiah, they are certainly violating the 1st Commandment
Gee, shouldn’t we be happy the left has finally found religion?
LOL!
Well, there’s a slight bit of truth in there....he is born totally out of the imagination.

"What would the world be without me?"
It’s nice that the DEMO’S finally get some wacko job in the White House - and then they start comparing him to religious and historical figures...
Much like the Yahoo article yesterday on all the wonderful things that are awaiting the 0bama family...
It’s twisted...
Now that they’re in, the press will do every imaginable thing to turn them into Kennedy Family #2.
I have no idea why. None. Not a clue.
Islamic figures are touted as the same in the M.E.
This religious clerics are somehow linked tot he past and propped up in the face of the public - basically stating that these “want-a-be” figures now have legitimacy...
The press want that - they want us 48% that did not vote for him to lay down our common sense and bow down to this guy - just because they wrote some article saying he is mythical...
Communist propaganda — I should sign up to a college course in journalism - I haven’t had one since 1990 - and see what kind of crap the socialist “brick-and-mortar” professors are now saying...
Some might call him the Prince of Darkness, but that would of course be RACIST.
...and some are a product of nether regions.
Somewhat high expectations?
The left is currently self destructing over the GLBT/”racist blacks against our rights”.
The shallow veneer of tolerance is being torn away.
It is a quick downhill slide from here.
the poor folks stuck in the cities will see no change.
The policies will exacerbate all the problems.
It will be hard to watch this happen to our country,
but it will be delicious to see the hate turn on
itself,the excuses,the screaming agony.
When does the media turn on Obama?
They will,that is what they do.
They live for that.
I expect a major form it will take from the old race baiters will be “not authentically black,not descendant from slaves”.
The left will continue screaming,continue spreading misery,it is all they know.
Obama’s fundamental antagonism to free press,open debate will bite him.
The talking heads will begin going after him,it is just a matter of time.
Blasphemy. I wouldn’t want to be this writer the day he’s giving account for his life. That’s some nasty stuff.
I suppose Nancy will be worshiping in the first pew of the Church of Obama for the next four years with the rest of the “secular” sycophants.
Dentist offices across the country won’t need any laughing gas when their patients pick up that issue.
