Understanding Obama: The Making of a Fuehrer

“When cheering for someone turns into adulation, something is wrong. Excessive adulation is indicative of a personality cult”

Somebody is already on top of that cult of personality thing.

Barack Obama Cult of Personality

Everytime I hear about Barack, I think of that song.

Ironic and nothing to do with nothing, that song is performed and written by one of the only black hard rock bands.

Dear. God. In. Heaven.

I just read the whole thing, every word, and I feel even more helpless than before. I have never had such a sense of doom and dread as I do now. The stakes are so high.

I planned to read it and then make dinner, but I have no appetite now. It was that pic of the Germans piled up and leaning in to listen to Hitler that put me over the edge. I really am ill now.

When was the last time somebody ran for President who wasn't a narcissist, though?

"Too many words. The Sheep will never read it."

I'm not the author and I agree that it is quite long. Even if the sheep read it they still would not believe it. That's the behavior of people in a cult. They deny that what they are involved in even is a cult. I thought it would help Freepers understand the mindset of Obama and his disciples.

You didn’t read the piece, long as it is. The author speaks to that, and quite logically.

I know and I really liked it when it was released. The band is Living Colour.

The stakes are high and that is exactly why you can’t give in to those feelings of doom. I felt a bit sick when I read it too. I also feel the same way every time I see Obama or his supporters on TV. I just makes me want to fight even harder for what I believe in. The opposition is counting on people to give in to their own feelings of discouragement. Fight on!

Of course, the following is in poor taste, but since we’re talking about Obama as Hitler anyway, it’s good for a cheap laugh or two.

Chilling coincidence. I hear the same song whenever Comrade Brother speaks. Also, "We don't need another hero" Tina Turner from Mad Max beyond Thunderdome.

Cult of Personality by Living Colour
(prophetic lyrics) with [comments]

Look into my eyes, what do you see?
[ACORN, Rezko, Rev Wright, Ayers, Inexperienced, not ready for prime time as well as Misguided]
Cult of personality
I know your anger, I know your dreams
I've been everything you want to be
I'm the cult of personality
Like mussolini and kennedy
I'm the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights, a nobel prize
The mirror speaks, the reflection lies
You don't have to follow me
Only you can set me free
I sell the things you need to be
I'm the smiling face on your t.v.
I'm the cult of personality
I exploit you still you love me

I tell you one and one makes three [1 + 1 = 3, BarackObonicsMath?]
I'm the cult of personality
Like joseph stalin and gandi
I'm the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights a nobel prize
A leader speaks, that leader dies
[MLK, not Comrade Brother Obama]
You don't have to follow me
Only you can set you free

You gave me fortune
You gave me fame
You gave me power in your gods name
I'm every person you need to be
I'm the cult of personality
Look into my eyes, what do you see?
Cult of personality
I know your anger, I know your dreams
I've been everything you want to be
I'm the cult of personality
Like mussolini and kennedy
I'm the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights, a noble prize
The mirror speaks, the reflection lies
You don't have to follow me
Only you can set me free
I sell the things you need to be
I'm the smiling face on your t.v.
I'm the cult of personality
I exploit you still you love me [Drink the coolaid, Obey Obama!]

I tell you one and one makes three [I believe Comrade Brother!]
I'm the cult of personality
Like joseph stalin and gandi [HOLY COW!]
I'm the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights a nobel prize
A leader speaks, that leader dies
You don't have to follow me [Enough, enough Obey Obama!]
Only you can set you free [VOTE McCain/Palin, set Obambi free. Is this the end of Baracko? (Rocko)
[also, visualizing scene from Hellraisers (antique puzzle box), go back Barack (Pinhead?) to Hell ]

[Special Request: Would a Freeper construct Sen. Barack Obama as Pinhead photo in color from the Hellraisers movie?]

You gave me fortune
You gave me fame
You me power in your gods name
I'm every person you need to be
I'm the cult of personality

These lyrics provide a natural commentary for ex DJ Rush Limbaugh. Enough, Enough, Enough!!!

Wow, I just sing the chorus (I loved that song alot when it came out back in what? 1989? Anyway...) Reading the lyrics of the entire song is amazing. As I said, the one hit by a rare black hard rock band describes perfectly the first black candidate nearly 20 years later.

Hitler was demon possessed. Herr Obama isn't yet, but he sure does like to hear his own rhetoric.

Those old pics have reminded me of something I am having trouble finding...Pictures of faces in the crowd at Hitler rallies. The faces with the delirious looks, the wild eyes. Darned creepy.
