To this day, every time I see a picture/video of it or think back on it, it really creeps me the hell out. Just who are these freaks that practically worshiped this man? What was going through their brains? It downright scary that these people exist, media/hollywood jerks who participated included. The world would be better off with out them.
It all "creeped me out" at the time …… and it still does.
Obama's 2004 speech was wonderful - I thought at the time, 'this man will be President some day', when he declared he was running for the job 2 years later - I really started looking at his background, his experience (lack of) and the people he surrounded himself with as advisors. Everything I learned sounded alarms. Then the subtle 'racist attacks' against the Clintons alarmed me and the "cultist" aura of "Messiah" became scary. The Obamas', their Team and Valerie Jarrett heavily promoted this cult thing.

Is Obama an enlightened being? San Francisco Chronicle - June 6, 2008



Quote:
Many spiritually advanced people I know (not coweringly religious, mind you, but deeply spiritual) identify Obama as a Lightworker, that rare kind of attuned being who has the ability to lead us not merely to new foreign policies or health care plans or whatnot, but who can actually help usher in a new way of being on the planet, of relating and connecting and engaging with this bizarre earthly experiment. These kinds of people actually help us evolve. They are philosophers and peacemakers of a very high order, and they speak not just to reason or emotion, but to the soul.
Anyone remember all those really creepy videos of children chanting to Obama during 2008?

Gottcha.....

Guess I have a hard time looking at someone (The President in this case) who would let a 19 year old intern take the fall as anything of "GREATNESS!"

IMO it would be better to actually RUN THE COUNTRY than to run down the man running the country. If you don't want to consider UHC for the unwashed masses, then do not, under any circumstances, allow Progressives to get control of the White House. If you fail to prevent that, then you will have to contend with the distasteful task of sabotaging their efforts at health care reform, environmental advocacy, Medicare expansion, infrastructure improvement and <gasp> Climate Change.

Do you notice all of your so called life issues involve taxing the people? All the while the government reaps more and gives more away to countries who treat their people poorly. When will people see the government spends money unwisely, stop thinking Al Gore and he's kind are really out to save the earth and the people.

What do you think of those who run down a man who use to run the country.......some (as in President) can't see the ball has been in their court for awhile now.

Maybe. Maybe not. But what if it does? See, that's the problem you guys have, you want all these wonderful things but you don't expect to have to pay for them... this country has over 400 billionaires and a whole lot of people with net worths in the hundreds of millions. They pay NO taxes. They really don't. When the smoke clears and all the jiggery poker is exposed, the net result of all the chicanery by their tax lawyers is hundredths of a cent on the dollar. About as close to zero as matters. That this results in any revenue at all for the IRS, should give you an inkling into just how much money would be available if some kick ass TAX REFORM were applied to actually getting this country back to First World status.

Government Waste is a separate issue from Government Spending. The way to control government waste, could never be to eliminate government entirely, or reduce it to a ridiculous extreme. The Government gives 3 billion/yr to Israel and what do we get for that? 9/11? Seems a pretty poor return on investment. Just tax the billionaires already and stop making spurious arguments that can be debunked in a single stroke of logic.

How charitable of you to think that Obama has the ball in his court. I know, I know, you all think Obama and other black people have hit the Lottery of redemption and we are living on Cloud 9. Eats you up, doesn't it. Just because a black man is not being ... ... honestly... if I thought that I would have to endure 3 more years of having to whine on the Internet about how awful it is to see a black person moving around in polite society... honestly... its time for a lethal cocktail. End the pain. Waiting it out is not an option... not like this... day after day... ObamaObamaObamaObamaObamaObamaObama... you don't even realize you are chanting Obama's name more than his worshipful supporters are. Oh dear... I guess I've gone and killed another thread... this much logic in one post is too much... time to slink off and start another where hopefully I won't find it... Well... you can try... I've got some vacation coming up... whoo haa. Going to keep it real around here for a few days at least. Obama has the ball in his court... right... it's not possible to make this stuff up...

I agree. In fact, I think Obama got through most of his academia and political career with the graces of affirmative action. Obviously the man is not qualified for much, besides charismatic public speaking, lying and pandering to race baiters.

This picture really highlights the amount of slobbering these ladies did over the president and first lady. Look at the stark contrast between the questions asked of both Michelle Obama and Ann Romney by Barbara Walters during the elections last year. Amazing.

Questions asked of Michelle Obama on the View:

1. Who is your idea of a classic first lady?
2. Do you have doubts about being a classic first lady?
3. I heard your husband tucks you in at night. Is that true?
4. Your husband says he teases you mercilessly. Do you tease him back?
5. If the president is not reelected, would you consider running for president?

Questions asked of Ann Romney on the View:

1. Your husband was prochoice, now is against abortion. Have you changed your views on abortion?
2. Do you think access to birth control and abortions is an economic issue?
3. As first lady, if you get the job, you will have to talk to the mothers whose children are coming home in bags from wars. Doesn't your religion keep you from fighting? How will you relate to those mothers of children who have not come back? How do you explain that your own sons have not gone?
4. Did you and your husband almost break up?
5. I heard you don't watch t.v. What do you do all day?

Maybe Barbara Walters didn't feel Michelle was capable of handling tougher questions. I can see how she might draw that conclusion.

I didn't think he was the Messiah in 2008 and I don't think he's Satan in 2013.

He remains what he's always been--just a well-spoken politician who is doing the country a service merely by keeping a Republican out of the White House.

Walters once bragged about herself on The View saying she was such a good journalist no one would ever guess what her politics were
