Reciting all the messianic nicknames given to Barack Obama, such as "The One," "The Savior," and "The Messiah," NBC's Matt Lauer, on Monday's "Today" show asked the Democratic presidential nominee, how he will "manage" such great, "expectations." During an interview, aired in two parts in the first hour of "Today," Lauer rarely hit Obama with a tough question, instead choosing to focus on recent campaign highlights such as all the recent endorsements for Obama from Colin Powell to the Washington Post.
In the later portion of the interview Lauer recounted the biblical descriptions of Obama:
People have called you "The Savior," "The Messiah," "The Messenger of Change." The expectations have been raised to such a level. Some people say you're partly responsible because of your confident attitude. If you are, as you just say, lucky enough to be elected the next president are you going to have to consciously manage expectations, during the first several months of your administration?

He’s the Mahdi.
That’s why his birth records are so unclear. Born 666 years ago and was hiden in a well for 660 years.
Man crush alert.
He will fail catastrophically and the backlash against him will be furious and vicious beyond belief.
So Obama said he’ll only walk on water on Tuesdays and then Lauer bows down before him.
That’s some tough journalism there.
Where’s the barf alert!
But that is not the case...these days.
OK, that’s it. This article finally convinced me.
0bama’a the Anti-Christ.
A crucifixion would be convincing.
The crucifixion wasn’t the convincing part... :)
Nah, he’s just one of Lucifer’s Little Helpers.
I believe the bible states that the Antichrist will be hailed as the Messiah although he doesn’t claim to be, but he will not correct those who claim him to be. After the first 3 1/2 years, he will be indwelled by Satan himself and THEN he will declare himself to be god and demand obeisance. The mark of the beast is to prove your loyalty to him.
You may have seen this post from a few weeks ago. It is a long read but it addresses the psychological makeup of the Obamanation. The categorize him as a pathological narcissist.
After thinking about these ideas, here are some questions I wrote. It seems they are perteninet.
Great article. It seems like he has IDd the Obamanation personality type well and the cult like actions of a good number of his supporters.
Maybe someone with more experience in human behavior and pathological narcissism can answer these questions:
1. What if the Obmanation loses (especially closely)? How will he react? Will he be magnanimous? Will he be angry? Will he let go and tell his minions to move on? Or will he be in denial and create havoc?
2. What if he fails in his quests? What if the policies & legislation he implements or supports are failures, especially catastrophically so? Example: health care for children in Hawaii. What will he do and how will he react? What does that mean for the country and those that so adamantly supported him? What happens to cults when the leader is “found out” and the cult followers are betrayed? Jim Jones? Hitler in the bunker?
3. It is very clear the MSM is seriously in the tank for the Obamanation. What will happen if they turn on him or at the very least starting telling the truth? What if a miracle occurs and all this nonsense from his past is truly investigated and a 60 Minute special (ha!) on his previous associations are revealed for all to see? When the cat is out of the bag, what will be his reaction? Given that the MSM has shown cult like tendencies in their fawning over the Obamanation, what will their reaction be when he is found out?
4. How will blacks feel when their savior, their messiah fails and fails badly? How will whites react to the Obmanation’s failure and the cult like supporters of the Obmanation? What does this portend for the future of race relations and our country? How will this ever be reconciled?
Glen Beck reminded me this AM that Hillary had said that the Obmanation has never been tested, he had not faced true criticism. Clearly he has not been vetted publicly. From a pathological narcissist perspective, how will he react?

Still, I would really like to see the 0bama-lama-ding-dong-commie hanging out for a while.
Another ‘wet leg’ heard from.

If Obama were a true Christian, he would disavow any attempt to place a comparison of himself to Jesus Christ. This is very disturbing and truly telling of the pyschological profile of this person.
Of course, if Obama isn’t a Christian, he doesn’t care because he probably doesn’t believe Christ even exists or that he was more than a mortal being.
O had such amazing accomplishments in the IL legislature and even more amazing accomplishments during his few months of actually being in the Senate, there is no doubt he will live up to our expectations.
