Hey media, Obama isn't 'God'
Edmonton Sun ^ | June 29, 2009 | LORRIE GOLDSTEIN

So, as it turns out, U.S. President Barack Obama is not "God" when it comes to dealing with the Islamic world, after all.

This, contrary to that gushingly inane description of him by Newsweek editor-at-large Evan Thomas, following Obama's June 4 speech in Cairo, seeking reconciliation with Muslims.

Unfortunately, just eight days after giving that speech, Obama was confronted by Iran's deadly crushing of citizen protests over an election now widely seen both inside and outside Iran as hopelessly corrupt.

This would be the same Iran Obama had just finished telling the world in Cairo he was prepared to work with in the pursuit of peace and that he literally walked on on eggshells not to offend.

Hell. Compared to 0bama, Bush is 'God' when dealing with the Islamic world, or the rest of it for that matter.

A woman that I work with is an obama kool aid drinker to the nth degree. To give you an idea about just how completely despicable and ignorant this woman is I should point out that last week, while having a conversation with her and another co-worker, Franklin Delano Roosevelt's name came up and she was left with a blank look on her face. When my co-worker asked her if she knew who he was, she tried to play it off for a moment before replying "he's a captain". I kid you not.

Anyway, this same person has, at various times, shown that she is completely (as in never even heard of) ignorant as to who Kim Jong Il is, the situation happening in Iran, and who Hugo Chavez is yet invariably winds up declaring that "obama will take care of it". Therein lies the problem. With an electorate as ignorant/stupid as this the US is going to get exactly what it deserves. God help us.

No he’s not God. He’s a post turtle. Or a Marxist dickhead. No wait, he’s a Marxist dickhead post turtle. That’s 0bama.

"He literally walked on on eggshells"

He most likely figuratively walked on eggshells, dear.

I know we didn't have a great choice to begin with, but I just can't, for the life of me, comprehend how Obama served a short term in IL, and then became the POTUS. People just hung on to every word, every promise and every sly smile he flashed.

I had the same encounter with a person who worked for the State of CA, Dept of AG. It was mind boggling to even attempt to understand her logic.

And so now we ALL pay the price.

We need to take back the media. It’s probably equally important as Congress or the WH.
