This is most certainly a display of so-called professional journalism at its worst.

Yeah, he gets on his knees before him once a week or so. Just like Larry Sinclair.

If Obama is a god he is Baal. (Baal = Ba’allah = Allah)

I don't think these people care about being considered "journalists" anymore.

Just look a Chris Matthews for proof of that.

Anybody really believe these clowns will ever expect “god” to be subjected to the laws and traditions of mere mortals?

Remember this one?

On August 9, 1932, the government decreed the death penalty for those convicted of ‘political’ murder. The next night a band of Nazis invaded the home of a Communist worker in the Silesian village of Potempa and stomped him to death, kicking his larynx to pieces. When the killers were arrested, tried, and sentenced in accordance with the new law, Hitler responded with threats and demonstrations. On Sept. 2, the government gave its answer: the death sentences were commuted to life imprisonment. The killers were freed by Hitler next year.

The civilized men in the country did not know what to do. In the words of one historian, the moderates voiced desperate "appeals to reason… [But] their techniques were distinctly out of tune with the wild emotionalism that seemed to have gripped a large part of the nation." The civility cherished by the civilized men had finally been defeated by their ideas, although they did not know that this was the cause.

After years of preaching contradictions and of evading principles with an anti-ideological shrug, these men were astonished to see the nation conclude that man cannot live by principles, that reason is no guide to action, and that anything goes. After years of institutionalizing interest-group warfare, which they had justified as sacrifice or collective service, these men were astonished to see hostile gangs take to the streets and demand one another’s sacrifice. After years of undercutting the mind by preaching the primacy of gentle feeling (whether ‘progressive’, religious, or skeptical), these men were astonished to find that they had nothing more to say, and that there was no one left to listen. The moderates were helpless. The authorities were helpless. The killers were taking over.

On January 30, 1933, after due attention to every requirement of German law and of the Weimar Constitution, Nazi rule was made official… It took six months for the Chancellor to transform the country into a totalitarian state."

It’s also just childish what he was saying, even without the deity reference. He is crediting Obama for the incredible feat of telling both sides that they must stop fighting and compromise.

Just silly that he is so impresed with this, when any sensible person would ask whether such a simplistic approach can work.

He didn’t say “godlike”, he said “sort of God”. In other words, God. Period. He called Obama “God”.

Bwahaha! ... yes, you could almost say -- like an 'angel of light'...

2 Corinthians 11

13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

Newsweek has officially declared/transformed to their new model of journalism: 100% op-ed. That's not hyperbole:

The American magazine Newsweek has announced its new format. From now on, it will focus on editorials, opinion columns, interviews and essays. In other words, the magazine had better consider a name change as well...to Punditsweek.

Even was a red diaper baby.

His daddy was a Stalin-loving commie rat traitor who ran for president lots of times on the Socialist Party ticket.

That red apple didn’t fall far from the tree.

Some sort of mass delusion going on here. It makes great comedy.

Evan is Norman Thomas’ son? Thomas is famous for saying that the Democratic Party had adopted the Socialist Party’s platform.
