Obama the Clinical Narcissist

@wandeljw,

In my opinion, the idea that Obama is worshipped is found in extreme-right propaganda, not in the expression of actual Obama supporters.

I'm not so sure about that-- I'd say the worship goes into the issue of style and worship with Liberal leaning magazines -- Vogue, Vanity Fair, Huffington Post.

Maybe Afghanistan is going to be for Obama what Vietnam was for Johnson. I mean, Obama is "carefully considering adding more troops", which I interpret as: "You want to pass your initiatives then you better give us our war..." I hope I'm wrong.

Bullshit...er... I mean (ummm) could you please give some examples

I read the Huffington Post. They are often quite critical of Obama-- for example on Health Reform and DOMA.

I think you are confusing these with the Conservative leaning magazines (who do, in fact, have a cult-like response to anything Obama).

@Gala,

Just as a sanity check, this is the leading editorial on Huff Post today: Barack Obama Is Doing My Job; Why America Needs Him to Do His. If this is coming from his worshipers I hate to see what is coming from his detractors. Oh, wait... I have seen what's coming from his detractors. Yeah, this guy's got it easy.

It is no use engineer... it seems like Gala has already swallowed the sweet Kool aid of Obama hatred.

Dude, nobody is worshiping Obama in that clip. Why did you even post that?

My guess is, a lack of ACTUAL examples is why you posted it.

Or any other of ebrown p's posts really. Most of yours as well.

@Cycloptichorn,

The stupid thing about McGentrix's "example" was that this was actually one of the examples we were talking about... people getting out ahead of Obama and pushing him away from the center.

@McGentrix,

Ridiculous, I might as well say that you worshiped Bush, because the vast majority of your posts including him were positive ones.

The truth is that the 'cult' meme was started by your side in order to rob legitimacy from us who genuinely like and agree with the guy. It seeks to paint people as unreasonable, when in fact our positions are quite reasonable.

I think that, as was stated earlier, there's more evidence of a cult of Negativity towards Obama coming from your side of the fence, bro.

@Cycloptichorn,

Did you watch the video with the sound on? If you did you wouldn't say such nonsense.

I did, and they weren't worshiping Obama. It's a ridiculous comment on your part.

What does the following mean to you?

“HEAR OUR CRY, OBAMA!”

“DELIVER US, OBAMA!”

@McGentrix,

There are a few flaws to your logic:

1. Requests for intervention aren't the same as worship.
2. Borrowing the language from church is not the same as transferring worship from the church to an individual.
3. A single anecdotal piece of evidence is not compelling. It's like holding up John Hinkley as an example of how everyone hated Reagan; it just doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

Get a grip. Obama passes gas just like the rest of us.

@DrewDad,

So, what, according to your logic, would be Obama worship? Do they need an altar with candles and a picture of Obama while wearing cloaks and on their knees praying? That would seem to be a rather narrow sighted perspective and assuredly hard to find evidence of.

I guess my definition would be a bit broader. But, it's out there and denying it doesn't make it go away.

@McGentrix,

I'm saying that every celebrity has his or her fans. "Fan" comes from "fanatic".

Even if he has some fans, people aren't worshiping Him.

Not too long ago, you were a fan of Bush. You wouldn't hear a word against him without jumping to his defense. You might try contrasting that behavior with the Obama supporters on this board and think, "who is more fanatical?"

And where do you think Bush 2 will end up on this list?

Somewhere in the neighborhood of Warren G. Harding.

@ebrown p,

What's with the hostile knee-jerk reaction?

I'm talking about the Style section of Huffington Post, that part is worshipful. Vogue had Michelle Obama on the cover, Vanity Fair pretty much had their love-fest in February...

I'm actually on the fence about how he's doing as president. It's hard to know if he's strong or not.

The conservatives loathe him, which has given rise to all the ridiculous Tea Parties.

Lighten up, I voted for him and was an early supporter-- nonetheless, as you've seemed to exhibited here, the man does not walk on water. So touchy.

@Gala,

She's on the cover because people are interested in her, not because of some love affair they have for her.

She sells magazines. If the Octomom sold more magazines, she'd be on all the covers.
