Most Dems and leftys seem to think that there's nothing odd or wrong with the coronation of their Messiah.

After this firestorm of coverage, I’ll bet good money that by the time of the speech tomorrow, the “Temple” will be covered in American flags.

[Signalman]

There will be 8 maidens carrying Obama to the stage on a caravan, and tossing grape leaves at him, while 100 doves are released into the sky.

Chuzpah!

Has He Lost His Mind?

He was turned to steel,

In a great magnetic field...

[Black Sabbath, "Iron Man"].

[Ronin]

Triumph of the Will?

I wonder if someone is channeling Reni.

It's going to work great - for McCain - as posted on CNSNews....

The problem for Barack Obama is that it isn’t his mistakes that are killing him -- it’s his triumphs of marketing and messaging that are destroying him. Every time he gets out his message, he loses voters. And that’s a recipe for electoral disaster. _____ How better to do that than from a miniature Greek temple? Talk on - BO - people are getting the message!

Just like the Left to defend a candidate with delusions of grandeur... they miss the point in attacking Charles Krauthammer's post. In America we don't have Caesars, Emperors or Kings!

“Hey-Sanna O-Bama, Sanna Sanna O-Bama, Hosanna O-Bam-A,
Hey B-O, Will You Smile At Me?, Sanna Hey-a-sanna O-bam-a!!”

Sung to the tune of “Hosanna” from “Jesus Christ Superstar”

[Semperfiwife]

Someone in his close circle had to have read the “Left Behind” books. This is straght out of the pages. Creepier and creepier!!

Krauthammer weighs in....

[Proud_texan]

Ya figure he’ll ride to the podium on an ass?

Yea! Everyone who criticizes Obambi is a NEOCON.....shiver.

In this case, this is a failure of image. Obambi is going to look ridiculous. I bet a heterosexual chose this theme because it’s a football field. With all the gay designers in the Dems camp, this was a serious mistake.

[garyhope]

My very first thought was the “Stonehenge” and dwarf in “Spinal Tap”.

[Cindy]

Really?
Do you have a source url for that?

[WellyP]

Delusions of grandeur! This is not serving the people, this is serving Obama!

Back in 2004, there were numerous stories about Democrat head-scratching over how to handle the (large) segment of voters who identify themselves as religious believers; these people vote in large numbers for Republicans. There were many stories in the media about "re-framing" the Democrat message in order to reach these "values voters." I remember a story on NPR at that time, in which they had a sort of round-table discussion on the subject. Anyway, here's the thing: I think the whole "Obama is Messiah" thing, with the religious imagery, including the "Temple of Obama" staging for his coronation address, is one of the results of the Democrat party's thinking and analysis of this problem. This is part of their effort to reach the "values voters." They actually think this will excite emotions deep inside the hearts of voters who believe in G-d.

Someone in the crowd should start chanting “Toga! Toga! Toga!” when the speech starts.
