There will be 14 Lichters armed with rods, with the Head Lichter carrying the Fascisti, representing that the principe whose way it leads holds the power of life and death over His subjects.

Hmmm, I wonder if the uniforms for White Guards that Nixon once designed, might be made available for this splendid occasion. The more operetta, the better!

[ichabod1]

I just wonder why they went for the “mini” part of it. How much grandeur is too grand for The One? It is impossible to be too grand for The One.

A pic of the Air Force One mockup Obama will be using in the Daily Mail (count on the Brits to do actual journalism!)

I'd post the pic myself, but the FR html sandbox seems to have disappeared, and I'm uh... challenged..

I guess he is now Apollo.

You gotta love this community agitator’s humility.

Has He Lost His Mind? He was turned to steel, In a great magnetic field... [Black Sabbath, "Iron Man"].

For anyone who didn't already immediately get your allusion...dya think that's a person who's going to be helped by explicitly naming the song/band? ;)

[rockabyebaby]

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

No, I heard slick won't be attending the magic negro's coronation!

[skimbell]

Well, with 80,000 Dumbocrats in the stadium, at least he won't have a hard time finding one.

[ichabod1]

I’ve been thinking it would not be beyond belief if he showed up on a donkey. Or how about a helicopter drop? Remember 2000, when Clinton had a camera on him from the moment he entered the building? Or Kerry last time riding the duck boat across the harbor? You think Obamao is smart enough to cool it with the grand entrances? I think he may be smart enough, but I don’t think he’ll be able to resist.

[Revolting cat!]

Will a Judy Garland record play softly in the background. Please persuade me now that Obambi is not, ahem, ‘gay’!

According to the Daily Mail, he’s arriving in a fuselage mockup of Air Force One (actually a repainted chunk of a junked 727).

Columnist In Syrian Gov’t Daily Supports Dems In U.S. Presidential Race

Columnist for the Syrian government daily Al-Thawra Nadia Damiati referred positively to U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and his running mate Sen. Joseph Biden, saying that their campaign slogan of “change and experience” indicated that “the Americans aspire for their country to take a moral stance, be an honest broker, act in accordance with the U.S. constitution, not ignite wars, not spill the blood of innocents in the world, and not deceive the [American] people regarding the danger of terrorism [and the need] to fight it.”

It’s called megalomania.

Obama's Temple

That's the term that keeps going around, but since this speech is being given on the anniversary of the "I Have A Dream" speech, that columnated backdrop seems obviously meant to convey the Lincoln Memorial.

Yep. Hype and pandering on the GRAND scale!

Fiction becoming real.
