A friend of mine recently went traveling on Southwest Airlines. Like most airlines, SW has a catalogue in the pockets of the seats--gadgets and trinkets and collectibles for sale.

Near the very CENTER of this catalogue, where one might directly open it, you see these two pages...pages that have images of Hussein and Michelle enjoined with Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy. Lincoln's portrait is enscribed "Bravery"; Kennedy's "Courage"; Hussein's "Hope"; and Michelle's "Belief"...this goes, I think, a bit beyond the normal marketing of a President's image for profit.

I think the guy in the NY Post had it right when he wrote about Hussein's appearance on Monday Night Football--and what others have said about his FIVE Sunday show appearances, and his joint session and constant news conferences...essentially, the image is being sold as an icon...as something to expect to see and obey...a constant presence in our lives. For many, it'll become (or has already become) a cult-like devotion to Hussein's desires and demands.

“a cult-like devotion to Hussein’s desires and demands.”

I REFUSE TO OBEY THE “DEMANDS” OF THAT COMMUNIST!!!!

Just $145 for this "diptych."

The term "diptych" originated in the late Roman Empire (e.g. consular dyptichs) and in the early Church (e.g. Peter and Paul, The Angel Gabriel and Mary).

Is this an imperial icon or a sacred icon?

I’ll stick to my Orthodox Christian icons of Christ, the Theotokos, and my patron saints, thank you. “Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.”

Worshipping “the one” is a satanic cult that endangers anyone’s salvation!

Besides that, it should be VERY obvious by now that obama is no Lincoln or JFK-quite the opposite. obama is a muslim communist and a WRECKER who will go down in history as our very worst President. We all need to stand before our REAL icons—or whatever other way you pray to the true God if you are not an Orthodox Christian—and pray that our poor America and we ourselves survive obama.

There was a thread about this topic recently. I don't know who the author of the article was -- someone in the marketing/advertising business, I believe -- but it boiled down to the fact that everything associated with BamBam includes his "personal stamp" -- the red/white/blue O -- that never before in the U.S. have we seen a person supplant his party as the trademark for whatever policy is being pushed.

I'm going to hunt around and see if I can find that thread, it was really interesting.
