Well hells bells.

I could drown this site with a list of creepy Obama stuff. But, I'll start with the two on the top of my list.
Debate 2 or 3: McCain busted him saying something (I can't remember what it was.) Obama insisted on addressing it even though the moderater was saying his time was up and the topic was switching. Obama insisted and kept going... the moderator allowed it. Obama looked straight into the camera and said, "I did not say that. You did not hear me say that. What I said was..." All anybody had to do was listen in the first place, and soon as he started the verbage your skin would have been crawling. OR, find the flipping taped debate and watch it again. BECAUSE he did say what McCain called him on. It was like the ultimate enabler moment... drunk on his powerful charisma, nobody but McCain challenging any of it.

The changing chant. No longer change we can believe in; now, it is we can change the world.

And the cult followers... almost as soon as he was declared "the winner" started saying expectations were to high for him. What the hell ever. His resume doesn't match the job application.

To quote Die Hard: Welcome to the party, pal!

One of my favorite movie lines, period. And very appropriate.

Now that we're off track, I have to add that I can't understand film critics who give "Die Hard" 3.5 stars, and "Live Free or Die Hard" 3 stars. As far as I'm concerned, there's "Die Hard," and then there's everything else.

It has long been suggested that the media love nothing more than to destroy idols of their own creation. This latest behavior may simply be a form of buyer’s remorse, but we’ll see.

And I love the way Bruce delivers it!

Why didn’t they print this BEFORE the election?

I understand your point but....The Obama thugs have bought and/or blackmailed the MSM. These kind of articles are just for show.

I could care less if Newsweek is creeped out. They’re Obama enablers. They asked for this, and they got it.

Right now time is telling me I’m living in 1933 Germany.

I forget who was on this morning on Fox and Friends, but the woman they had on said that she believes the media will only play lap dog for so long and will want to report the negative because it gets way more play.

They did their job and got Obama elected, now they will turn on him. The MSM are a vengeful and cynical bunch.

We’ll see. If she’s right, it sure didn’t take very long.

As was posted earlier today the Illinois Wednesday pick 3 came up 666. What was not noticed was the Wednesday pick 4 Illinois lottery came up 7779. The number 777 represents the total completion of God, and the number 9 biblically means judgment. So we have the antichrist followed by the end of the age and then judgment.

How about a survey: When will obama jump the shark with (a)the media (b) the general public?

Well within a year. He has made promises he cannot keep, to people who do not take disappointment well. And with the Dems in charge everywhere, he will have no excuses. It may get very ugly in 2009.

Those “honchos” knew what this guy was like all along. Only now it’s safe to tell us how they really feel. Scumbags.

The MSM wants to make money before they want to lay in bed with a candidate with maybe the exception of the sluts at MSNBC. They saw Obama as the perfect money making story as a candidate and as a President. They were with him for his run because they need him to win to tear him down. The MSM knew all these stories (Wright, Ayres, “The Tape”) and didn’t play them because they will need ammo for his presidency. The longer he’s relevant, the more money they make.

Wonder what the MSM will say when the Messiah starts creating his own Praetorian Guard from the SS

I agree. Very scary..especially with a media that will do nothing to stop the destruction of our country. Truthfully, I have been in tears off and on for two days just thinking about how corrupt the American media has become. Not only with Obama but with all of the democrat corruption and blame in the economic crisis.

Our country is in for a very rude awakening. Dow down again almost 400 points!

Given his personal associations and his Harvard/Columbia indoctrination, I'm beginning to think that Obama sees himself as a Hegelian "world-historical figure." Notice the reference in the text to "self-awareness."

This would explain his coldness and aloofness. He sees himself as being above the rest of humanity. Like a Nietzchean Superman, Obama is free to transcend good and evil, as he did with his votes in favor of infanticide.

Those votes indicate that he altogether lacks a conscience, as does the fact that he has contributed nothing to the care of his indigent family. The Bible has very harsh words for men who do not support their families --nevermind baby-killers.
