At the dentist office I read the responses from yet another article in People Magazine about BHO after he won and the idle worship towards this man is alarming. The responses were basically from Women and men who were in tears and all stated that he was the man to lead the nation back into glory and undo the damage from Bush.
On TV there are numerous commercials now about Obama coins and paraphernalia for sale. I have seen at least two different ads for commemorative coins for this historic election and the man who has restored the confidence in this nation.

Then on my way to work I saw two different stands on the corners selling T-shirts, mugs, pens, bumper stickers, posters, plates and on and on. People at work have their cubicles decorated with BHO paraphernalia.
I have never seen such nonsense before, not even when Clinton took office.
Did they offer these commemorative coins when Clinton or Bush took office? I don’t recall seeing anything like this before.
And the worse thing is that now with this scandal about the Governor in Illinois, BHO supporters think it is no big deal and can’t understand all the fuss in the media. Some have gone as far to say this story as been manufactures by Fox News and Rush.
And it now appears we can now use Obama’s middle name. I’m sure infomercials about BHO will be right around the corner.
Someone wake me up when it is over please because I can’t take it any longer.

And to think we only have eight short years to endure this...
You’re citing the organs of propaganda in their myriad manifestations. What do you expect them to do?
A good friend of mine just bought ten Obama presidential dollars, the guy isn’t even President yet...
You aren't alone, GH....I see it daily. The world has found their "savior" - and they will one day wake up to see where he has led them. In that day, Obama-worship won't be voluntary...he will demand it. And by that time...it's too late.

heh. Obama is a forty-cent piece, so I reckon your friend got swindled.
If people think Bush has “damaged” our nation, all I can say is they ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
What gets me the most is the insipid “O” symbol Obama uses, and pictures of his followers making the symbol with their two hands.
Interesting how all the pop-culture references to fascism, from the Oink Floyd movie “The Wall” to the recent film “V,” employ a ubiquitous symbol, some suitably angular design, to stand in for the swastika.
The Obama folks were wise to keep any “sharp edges” out of their design. It looks nothing like a swastika.
But the hysteria and hero worship, the styrofoam Greek columns and the night rallies, are vivid and disturbing echoes of something the world has seen before.
Oink Floyd = Pink Floyd
Everything that goes up must come down.
“The One” has a lot to live up to and he WILL fail miserably.
He is already failing. We see bits and pieces of it before he ever enters the White House.
Yes, the leftist media will cover for him. Yes, the worshippers will not want to believe any of his wrong doing. But the fact remains that he can not possibly live up to all his “promises”.
He’s not smart enough to govern, not experienced enough to lead, and no amount of charisma will be enough to change those facts.
He has a bunch of thugs covering for him right now, but eventually those same thugs are going to want some retribution and they will throw Obama under the bus. He’s not worth it to any of them in the end.
This Obama worship is dangerous!
We are still undoing the damage Jimmy Carter brought.
Yes - And I do not recall a politician ever having and emblem before like Bama.
I'm wondering if he will replace the carpet in the oval office with a custom carpet with his Obama sign.
And what is with the sign on the podium that states “office of the president elect”? There is no such thing. The ego of this man has no boundaries. It reminds me of Saddam Hessian and Hugo Cheves

0 is our first black president. Plain and simple marketing. Let people make some money. He’ll be taking it back eventually.
45 years after, "we" are judging a President by the colour of his skin, not the content of his character. A huge chunk of that "we" so judging, are the very folks who normally claim to be opposed to racism and discrimination.
This nation's worst racists are leftist, urban democRats ... many of them with very dark skin. The flood of democRat hypocrisy following Zero's nomination has been astonishing.
The dangerous part comes when he fails to produce what he promises (and what people are expecting him to deliver that he didn’t even promise),
and he either has to take the heat himself, or find some group to blame.
Guess which he’ll do. Happens every time in history.
I think it goes much deeper than the color of his skin.
Have you seen the Obama Victory Plate commercial?
The only other time in History that this kind of histeria and euphoria I can recall was with Adolph Hitler in Germany.. It is truly scarey.
