MSNBC: Obama is sort of a god (politicians, bias, terrorists)

[HappyTexan]

Geeze..they are going a bit too far comparing Obama to a god. They don't even do that to the Pope.

Granted he's a good talker and can wiggle his way out of any promise and change course and no one gets upset but I wouldn't even think to compare him to a god.

That's no where near comparing a person to a god.

A statute of Reagan was erected in honor of his accomplishments. I don't believe I've ever seen anything like this though:

100 days in office, Obama coronated Messiah

The left has their Gods, deities and idols, and the right has theirs... shocking!

Yep. Statues are erected for all sorts of people. Soldiers and political figures alike. If Reagan's statue was erected in the center of town with all roads leading to it, and no buildings within 5 blocks being as high as the statue, that would be idol worship.

He called HIMSELF "the decider"..Others are overly praising Obama.

[HappyTexan]

He's a man who gets 4 years to prove himself and produce on his promises.
That's it in a nutshell..holds true for either party.

That's not why you credited MSNBC with the statement. Be honest....

This is the old campaign attack. Obama is "uppity" so he must be the chosen one.

Not to mention they knew he was speaking metaphorically.

It appears sightings are popping up everywhere:

France gets its Obama moment: ""I saw God before me"

It was when the great Oprah anointed Obama saying, "He is the one." You can find that on Youtube. Since the great Oprah---the voice of the Dem party anointed Obama as "THE ONE" the liberal media lined up to declare him their God, the almighty One, the Omnipotent one, forever and ever amen.

Ooops! He picked up his share of blasphemers this trip also:
