Not sure who these "liberals" are your referring too.
Nevertheless, the media is the one who coined the label, not these conservatives you seem so fond of blaming. As I demonstrated, the media was using the "messiah" label more than a year ago. Even foreign media was making those references.

Yet, instead of acknowledging this reality, you continue to blame conservatives for an additional 18 posts. Which proves the moral of the story. You are not interested in reality, only assigning blame, and only if the conservatives can be blamed.

Did the democrats label Bush the Messiah or Master when he took the 2000 & 2004 elections?

Unfortuantely for many on CD mainly those who takes issue when they can not obtain agreement from the other side. Juvenile discussions typically takes away from credible discussion.
I agree with you completely...

However - save your breath - for the detractors on this forum will never listen...

You see, Sean Hannity started calling him 'The Messiah' about 6 months ago - and his loyal minions - several of whom are loyal posters on this forum - accepts his word as the gospel truth...

In essence - they are brain-dead automatons... totally incapable of rational thought.

Wishful thinking on their part? Jimmy Carter (JC ) was the closest thing to sainthood that ever sat in the chair, but that didn't work out very well, did it? What if JC were republican? I mean, his positions on many issues were very conservative, but you won't hear a single republican speak a kind word about the man.

To use Farrakahn as an example is far reaching than anything. Hilary is a completely different story.
wow, you're certainly changing your tune now that you've been shown to be wrong. your OP said nothing about 'belief' on the behalf of democrats at large.

first you said:

now, shown exactly what you asked to see, you're claiming that farrakhan is not a democrat? or what?

hilarious as that was, it's clearly poking fun at the sheep, not chugging the kool-aid.

I'm happy to say I ignored all mccain or obama 'people' to make my decision, so I was oblivious intentionally unless they seriously got in my face about it (which never bodes well for any candidate). Plenty of mccain bumper stickers warning of a muslim white house were bad enough. Those bumper stickers have melted in spring thaw it would appear.

Obama's sun positioned in the house of Leo spun an extraordinary tale. Does it apply to all leos? What about republican leos???

Do you not follow politics?

This is just like the racist comments in the presidential election were coming from democrats,racist comments never came from republican candidates, elected republicans in office or the RNC.

The tea party protests idea was first presented by a democrat on NBC from the floor of the stock exchange, and the idea caught on from there.

The messianic references were criticism ot 0bama, coming came from the democrats running against him. Back as early as May 2008 the news magazines and newspaper stories came out with photos of 0bama with airbrushed halos over his head, or bathed 0bama in a celestial glow. Even the European news media picked up on all this before republicans started using the term as a satirical way of poking fun at the idolatry we saw surrounding 0bama.
