Remember When Obama Was The Messiah?
The Daily Caller ^ | 11:25 PM 11/01/2014 | Eric Owens

Posted on 11/02/2014 2:12:42 AM PST by Cincinatus' Wife

President Barack Obama had an approval rating of just 38 percent as of late September and he is having a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad year.

This week, the man who once filled arenas like a rock star suffered the indignity of Wisconsin Democrats walking out on him as he stumped for another struggling Democrat, Mary Burke. Obama’s visit to Wisconsin coincided with the disappearance of Burke’s modest lead in statewide polls.......

......The atmosphere has got to be pretty glum in the White House and in various leftist hothouses.

The Daily Caller wants to help.

Here, then, is a fond tribute to those halcyon times when a bunch of dupes waxed ridiculously about Obama as if he was some kind of worship-worthy deity, not a crappy leader with no experience.

Obama’s speeches “enmesh you in a grander moment, as if history has stopped flowing passively by, and, just for an instant, contracted around you, made you aware of its presence, and your role in it,” parochial Washington rube Ezra Klein spouted in January 2008 in The American Prospect. “He is not the Word made flesh, but the triumph of word over flesh, over color, over despair. The other great leaders I’ve heard guide us towards a better politics, but Obama is, at his best, able to call us back to our highest selves, to the place where America exists as a glittering ideal, and where we, its honored inhabitants, seem capable of achieving it, and thus of sharing in its meaning and transcendence.”..........

Reid: Senate hinges on Iowa "........The PCCC [Progressive Change Campaign Committee] has dubbed its preferred candidates the “Elizabeth Warren Wing” of the Democratic Party and warned on Saturday that a loss by Braley in Iowa would be devastating for Social Security benefits. Adam Green, the group’s co-founder, said it was approaching channeling nearly $100,000 in donations to Braley and hoped to make 150,000 phone calls on his behalf.

Reid instructed PCCC callers not to lose their cool with Iowa voters that have been besieged with millions in negative advertisements during one of the closest Senate races in the nation.

“People have been swamped with phone calls with emails,” he said. “They are getting really tired with us. That’s why you have to be patient and extremely courteous.”

They are wrong and have been for quite a while.
The Baboon was never even close to a messiah.
He can't even run a lemon-aide stand and never has . . .

The Democrats have become their own worst enemy. It was just a matter of time, but it always happens when one gets too greedy. Serves them right.

I know at least some of those cult members quoted in the article still think Obama is god, but I wonder if any of them now have doubts since they waxed so eloquently. Matthews perhaps. Not sure about the others.

These types of articles are not just great for reminding us what dunces and dupes the ideologically driven Democrat Party is. They’re great for also reminding us that they’re amusingly doltish dunces, dupes and ideologically driven.

The libs know he’s a public failure now, and that it can’t be concealed. When they have to trot out BJ Clinton to rally not just gullible whites but even BLACKS to support Obama’s agenda, it is a sign of pure desperation. I hope Clinton is getting paid well; he knows this fraud stole a job that his wife was sure to win if she hadn’t been scammed by the racial grievance industry hustlers...

“They are getting really tired with us. That’s why you have to be patient and extremely courteous.”

Why not use the tactic in Iowa as they do elsewhere - threaten their voters.

----Reid instructed PCCC callers not to lose their cool with Iowa voters that have been besieged with millions in negative advertisements during one of the closest Senate races in the nation.

If it's a live caller, I stop them and tell them"I'm not playing". I get some real interesting answers. I just leave them confused.

One exception; One caller asked me if I had voted yet, and I told them I would vote on election day. They said something about "early voting", and I asked them what the Constitution had to say about it.

The way I see it, the Constitution says we will all vote on the SAME DAY. To me this means THE SAME DAY.

. . . and those speeches that “enmesh you in a grander moment, as if history has stopped flowing passively by, and, just for an instant, contracted around you, made you aware of its presence, and your role in it,”

which would be impossible without his teleprompter.

FRAUDSTER

Some still think he’s their messiah - I tell them they’ve been “Blinded by the Blight”.
