Well, the San Francisco Chronicle's Mark Morford out does himself with sycophantic, hyperbole over his Obammessiah, today, February 27. He so revels in hero worship for The One, it's amazing that the White House doesn't feel compelled to get an order of protection against this creepy columnist.
No one in the Old Media is more sold on The One and less credible for his girlish crush than Morford. He is a fount of mush as he wonders if he should be scared of today's problems or suffused with lust in his heart for Obama (if you'll remember the Carterism).
It goes something like this: Do you allow yourself, even now, to feel any sort of ongoing, relieved, merciful joy that Barack Obama actually is sitting in the Big Chair in the White House? That this elegant, articulate, Zen-like man whose integrity is rock-solid and whose ideas, while certainly not in perfect alignment with every ultra-lefty vision on the planet (clean coal? Please), are astonishingly ambitious and brave, is leading this nation during one of the worst economic times in its short and paroxysmal history?
One would expect such gushing from a teenage girl writing to a teen idol, not a grown man talking about a mere politician.
Seriously, Morford wasn't finished...

So was Jim Jones.
So was Hitler.
So was Mussolini.
It’s a strong delusion....a depraved mind.
"and the natives cried out, "Obama, Obama, don't step in the Obama!!' "
He’s badly in need of a hero.
Of biblical portions.
Definitely, the most powerful example of "strong delusion" I have ever seen. The only thing that remains to be seen is whether this is a case of "A" or "The" strong delusion.
SODS - I believe it is the latter, because it’s on a scale that we’ve never seen - and worldwide. Even Hitler had to work at it over time. Obie-the-wan arrived on the scene having done nothing, and yet the masses were convinced he would save them. He brings havoc and chaos, and still the people adore him. His grip on the spiritually blind is so great, I can see how it might be possible for even believers to let down their guard.
G-A-Y
Liberalism is a mental illness.
I am rereading Shirer's Rise and Fall of the Third Reich (still in vol. one) and, as you say, Hitler worked overtime and still suffered many setbacks before gaining power. Even then, Hitler's power was maintained and reinforced initially by the Brownshirts and later by the SS and SD.
Obama, on the other hand, seems to cast a spell on liberals and it is that difference between his position of deification and its "visible means of support" (or complete lack thereof) that can be used define the degree of "delusion"...and it is huge.
That said, I am still waiting for some kind of definite sign to conclude that he is THE "Lawless One."
I appreciate your comments on this subject because many (too many) are willing to dismiss it too quickly IMO.
The dismissive folk (scoffers and mockers) were also foretold. I’ll take the risk - knowing that it’s foolishness to those who are perishing. I’m willing to talk about it for two reasons - the fields are white unto harvest AND to leave “messages-in-a-bottle” here on FR that some may recall later.
In the meantime, take a look at this article from abroad (it’s becoming increasingly difficult to find credible or relevant American reporting on anything in these days). Israel is practically begging for a “peace agreement” - that’s the locus of attention now.

This sicko is another disgusting little pederast hunting his next young boy in order to express his love and provide a lesson in tolerance of the most deviant kind.
You’ll note he’s a San Francisco “columnist.”
‘nuff said.
