But can he walk on water? (Obama)

According to the Hebrew Bible, Moses enlisted divine assistance to part the Red Sea and allow the Jews to pass through it. King Canute is known to legend as the monarch whose courtiers persuaded him he could command the seas to go back. He is also known as the king who could not stop the sea but stemmed the Viking tide. And now Barack Obama claims the possession of powers that leave them in the dust.

At the end of his victory speech last night in St. Paul, Obama declared that we would be able to look back on his election to the presidency as "the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal." Lest you think this seems a bit presumptuos, he also noted that he makes this claim "with profound humility, and knowledge of my own limitations."

It isn’t Kool-Aid, must be some kind of blend.

I would laugh at this if it were not for the fact that many people in this country actually believe this fantasy man. Barry is a very dangerous man.

It’s isn’t just “people.” It’s the democrat party who is willing to do ANYTHING to get into power, even choosing a Muslim to be their candidate.

Not many seem to have noticed that Hussein said "we and our children" would look back on his glorious miracles from generations in the future (when we will all be dead). In an earlier speech, he saw dead veterans in the audience. The fact that this guy, with his absurd and bombastic rhetoric, has even been considered a serious contender is a testament to the completely rotten state of our educational system.

delusions of grandeur - a delusion (common in paranoia) that you are much greater and more powerful and influential than you really are

RUSH: Sounds wonderful, right? To a lot of airheads, to a lot of dorks, to a lot of dunces this sounds just fabulous. "We began to provide care for the sick." We've got the best medical care in the world! "Good jobs for the jobless." The unemployment rate is 5%! Anybody not working in America today does not want to work. It's just that simple. "...when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal." Ladies and gentlemen, in order to protect the integrity and decorum of this program, I am going to step aside for a moment and bring aboard the Official Obama Criticizer: Bo Snerdley.



SNERDLEY: This is Bo Snerdley, the EIB Official Barack Criticizer, certified black enough to criticize -- and I have a message. Senator Obama in your victory speech last night you declared that this was America's moment that somehow now, if we are willing to work for it -- fight for it, believe in it -- we're all going to look back someday and realize, this was the moment that we began to care for the sick, to have jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans would begin to slow and our planet would begin to heal. This was the moment we came together to remake this great nation. That's what you said. Excuse me, sir. What country have you been living in? Americans have been working hard since there was America! It's that work that made this the world's lone superpower, that work that built a nation that is the envy of the world. And what is this business about the oceans begin to slow? What does that mean? In fact, what do you mean? This is insulting, sir! America is great; it was great before you stepped on the scene. The thing that frightens us, sir, is that you are hell-bent on destroying what is great in the name of liberalism.

Now, a translation for the EIB brothers and sisters in the 'hood: My brutha, O! Big ups on your win, yo. You the big dog now, but yo, listen up, what's up with that speech, bro? Check it out. You running for president or you running to become black Moses, yo? You going to all day like, you know, step on the scene, the world, the ocean's going to part, then start slowing down? Yo, that sounds a little fishy to me, yo. And the joblessness? You want to get jobs for people, yo? Doing what? But if you throwin' down jobs I got a few peeps to hit you up with, brothers and sisters looking for jobs out there better paying money, Rezko, yo? Look, I got news for you, most of us even the typical white people, yo, we already care for sick people -- and dig this, bro. What kind of policy you holding back that can heal the planet? Especially since it's not sick. Between you and me, yo, the earf isn't sick, doesn't really need to be healed. Yo, bro, you need to chill, you know? You're not God, despite yo press coverage.

That concludes our statement.

RUSH: The Official Obama Criticizer, Bo Snerdley.

Anybody with those ears would normally be self consciuos and stay out of public view.
His delusions of grandeur and self importance allow him to Love himself looking in the mirror at that ridiculous, hilarious characature more fitting in a Micky Mouse Movie.

Note this comparison:


A populsitic, charismatic, self-serving individual has a way of mesmerizing foolish people looking for an idol...then and now.

Barack Hussein Obama is the apex of the hate-America, domestic enemy in this country. His election as president would be the greatest coup any enemy has ever scored against this country and could easily lead to the worst, horrific disaster in our nation's history.

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

IMHO,voting for Obama Hussein is like relieving yourself in Arlington National Cemetery. Yet I know there are WWII vets in this area (southwest PA.) that will knock each other down on Election day to vote for this Anti-American Commie.

They will vote away the freedoms they fought for and many died for with a triumphant smile on their face.

Sickening.
