‘I Love You, Barack’
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 02/11/2009 4:56:16 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Wall Street might have blown Barack Obama a big collective raspberry for the underwhelming performance of his Treasury Secretary yesterday, but there are clearly still some passionate fans of the president out there.

Perhaps the dramatic highlight of yesterday’s town hall in Ft. Myers, Florida occurred when a woman described herself as homeless to the president and asked for help.

Pres. Obama asked the woman’s name, embraced her, and promised to do everything he could to help her. The president’s display of compassion manifestly moved another woman in the audience. Keep your eye on the woman in white in the left-hand side of the frame.

I saw that when it happened! My first impression was that she was worshiping him!

I bet you could transpose her into the front row of praise/worship service and you wouldnt be able to tell the difference!

Or and Elvis concert.....

In the RV building capitol of the world and also the nation leader in unemployment, 0 threw out the smoke and mirrors and had the crowd believing he felt their pain even though he would prefer we all drove around in golf carts. The deception is incredible. And, the worship of him is disgusting.

If Julio is the future of America, we’re finished.

Did you note his “KING OBAMA” t-shirt? Sounds like his fondest wish is to be ruled by Good King Obama.

“We’re going to do everything we can to help you” The WE is the taxpayers, you can bet anyone who won’t help get his own half brother out of a slum won’t spend a dime of his money on Ms, Hughs.

I Honestly Love You
Artist: Olivia Newton-John

Maybe I hang around here
A little more than I should
We both know I got somewhere else to go
But I got something to tell you
That I never thought I would
But I believe you really ought to know

I love you
I honestly love you

You don’t have to answer
I see it in your eyes
Maybe it was better left unsaid
This is pure and simple
And you should realize
That it’s coming from my heart and not my head

I love you
I honestly love you

I’m not trying to make you feel uncomfortable
I’m not trying to make you anything at all
But this feeling doesn’t come along everyday
And you shouldn’t blow the chance
When you’ve got the chance to say

I love you
I honestly love you

If we both were born
In anoother place and time
This moment might be ending in a kiss
But there you are with yours
And here I am with mine
So I guess we’ll just be leaving it at this

I love you
I honestly love you
I honestly love you

Barry-O, Fallen Star (based upon “Jesus Christ, Superstar”)

CROWD
See my eyes, I can hardly see.
See me stand I can hardly walk.
I believe you can make me whole
See my tongue, I can hardly talk.

See my skin, I’m a mass of blood.
See my legs, I can hardly stand.
I believe you can make me well.
See my purse, I’m a poor, poor man.

Will you touch, will you mend me Barry?
Won’t you touch, will you heal me Barry?
Will you kiss, you can cure me Barry!
Won’t you kiss, won’t you pay me Barry?

Amazing. Every time Obama gave him some affirmation, the guy gloried in it.

“Pres. Obama asked the woman’s name, embraced her, and promised to do everything he could to help her.”

He’ll get her a house share with his Aunt Zeituni and brother George Obama?

Look at this guy from the same event. He makes the woman in white look like a most sane person in the world.

It’s a cult.

Isn’t this fun? All this melodrama and no real solutions. It’s government by Oprah.
