For those who believe in traditional values, Christmas, and the holiday season in general for all those of faith, represent a very special and even sacred time of reflection, gratitude and hope.
Unless of course, you are one of the leading voices of the liberal mainstream media and you want to intimate yet again that Barack Obama may be at least a figurative deity here on Earth.
Said multi-millionaire, literally limousine-liberal Barbara Walters in response to CNN's further left-leaning Piers Morgan's question about why Obama is struggling so much at the moment:
"He made so many promises. We thought he was going to be — I shouldn't say this at Christmas time — but the next Messiah."
Wow! Well, Walters did just say it at Christmas time. Why?
First, who is the "we" she is referencing? That would be the other ultra-wealthy liberals from Hollywood, the media, entertainment, the new social-media billionaires and most tenured and unionized academia who have deluded themselves into believing this to be the case.
From their insular bubble of privilege where they are sealed off from the vast majority of their fellow citizens, they turned the unquestioned worship of Obama into a new theology. Once that virtual house of worship was created, they believed Obama could and would do no wrong.
Unfortunately for them, they made this assumption from a platform of pure ignorance coupled with a complete lack of intellectual curiosity. Even now, five years into his presidency, Walters — like the rest of us — knows next to nothing about Obama.
Like so many from the left, she has assigned him the title of being "brilliant." When you ask them how they came to such a conclusion when Obama himself has refused to release his college transcripts, SAT scores, IQ tests or any evidence whatsoever, they fall back to the same explanation over and over again: He reads a good speech from a teleprompter.
Now, many of these same ignorant or unquestioning liberals are concluding that maybe they were sold a bill of goods and their self-proclaimed deity on Earth might have feet of clay.
As so many of us already understood, they are also coming to the realization that Obama was actually placed into the protective bubble of political correctness at about the age of 20, and has had much or all of his "success" handed to him every step of the way with various people behind the curtain writing the words, crafting the real estate deals and creating the legend.
As Walters now seems aware, her deity on Earth was elected to an office where there is no time for on-the-job training and where inexperience, narcissism, lack of a work ethic and being out of touch with the most common problems of the average American are quickly exposed.
Human nature dictates that we tend to embrace the truth right up until the moment it reflects poorly upon ourselves or our cause. With that truism in mind, there can be no denying that many from the mainstream media deliberately ignored certain truths or shortcomings about Obama because his beliefs dovetailed so nicely with their own.
Now, a growing number of liberals in the mainstream media who — unlike Walters and various Hollywood and entertainment moguls — do have to worry about paying their mortgage, feeding their children, keeping their jobs and having good, non-socialized health care are beginning to at least acknowledge Obama is flawed and human after all, and his policies might run counter to their own welfare.
During the "Christmas time" Walters mentioned, maybe she and the majority of the mainstream media can cease worshipping their false "Messiah" and instead give their fellow Americans the best present of all — the truth.
"Quickly exposed" meaning five years, unfortunately.
Would love to see this media and life whore just plain go away. Maybe get her speech impediment fixed while she’s gone. Don’t know how she even made a dime in this business unless it was because she tramped her way on her knees.
People are reading too much into this. Baba Wawa discovered that Obama is not the messiah they’ve been waiting for. Now, its time for Hillary the Messiah to rise.
Progs never change their politics. They only change the person that they believe embodies their ideals.
Profound stupidity.
How can someone who has spent decades in the political arena
remain such a uniformed bubble head. Rush understood before Obama took office
Shows you what idiots liberal are. I liked Reagan but no way would I have equated him to Messiah status.
At least he’s “Clean and well dressed ...”
I believe and always have Obama is the opposite of what Walters thought.
You are right. Somebody has to finally get the full Marxism right so that they can get on with creating their paradise.
They thought they were gonna do it with Obama. But, I suspect Hillary will not be successful at working her Earth Mother Goddess magic either.
SO wait... because he made ‘promises’ that you fell for, he was somehow devine?
Baba Wawa you are stupider than we imagined
It wouldn’t be the first time Barbara Walters laid upon her back and let a black man jump between her legs.
Anyone who would call a politician a “Messiah” especially one who’s a Marxist should be tied in a straightjacket and thrown in a padded cell. Does this stupid ass b*tch know the history of Marxism or is she that senile? She should read “The black book of Communism” and then think again if she thinks Obama is the “Messiah”.
>>You are right. Somebody has to finally get the full Marxism right so that they can get on with creating their paradise.
I had a very progressive pastor (UMC) in 2008. When Obama was elected, he confided in me that he thought that the Kingdom of God was finally at hand. Progressive “Christians” don’t believe in the actual return of Christ. They believe that the kingdom will be fulfilled when all bellies are full and everyone has a roof over their head and free health care.
So, that was 2008/9.
Fast forward to 2012. He could see that Obama was ushering in something more like the Great Tribulation (that he didn’t believe in either—Progs believe that the bible needs to be reinterpreted for each generation) than the Kingdom of God. He actually went crazy and had to be hospitalized for about two months for anxiety-related disorders and then he retired on disability. He went on regular retirement last June.
These Progs REALLY did think that Obama was the Messiah. It isn’t just a figure of speech.
Bingo.
"We" are the RATagandists, who should be charged with crimes related to slander, fraud, deception and journalistic malpractice.
Those existing iconic disinformation bureaus should be allowed to collapse due to lack of public support, and new, honest components of the "fourth estate" should rise up and take their rightful place.
The First Amendment does not mean we should have an official ministry of propaganda, but rather a constant din of whistleblowers and yapping media-watchdogs.
And along being ugly it goes all the way to the bone.
And HANDSOMELY REMUNERATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Down with the skinny black homosexual Marxist!
Long live the fat white lesbian Marxist!
HOPE AND CHANGE! HOPE TO CHANGE! CHANGE YOUR HOPE!
(What-ever!)
