Amazing how tone deaf the Obamites are. No matter how many polls are taken , no matter o
what evidence is cited , they still insist that no matter what Obama does he is a saint and insist that others accept him as their savior. I have never seen anything like this.I am absolutely revolted. He throw his own grandmother under the bus and compared her to a bigot while defending a racist preacher and they find this "praiseworthy" . And somehow thibnk this will "convert" the heartland in the GE?
I will hand it to them though. They never budge. They just chant the mantra , over and over.They are a cross between a Goebbals inspired mob and the haru Krishnas. Ugh.

2. I must admit...
After yesterday's sermon I was caught up in the moment. Proselytizing can be so effective. I was thinking about going to the altar to take communion (kool-aid). But then I remembered, this is a political campaign and he ain't Jesus.

3. I especially like the threads that try to
guilt us into voting for Obama. We MUST vote for him because it is his time, he is the chosen one, blah, blah, blah.

A couple of weeks ago someone posted that they were awake all night worrying about their child and knowing that Barrack is the ONLY one who can make things alright.

It's just unreal.

8. It's craziness. I think it's a reflection of his feeling that the nomination belongs to him.

10. It's mass hypnosis...
just like the 1930's in pre-war Germany. People were looking for a "savior" and Hitler was there to stir them up. They were ripe for manipulation and when people are in that state they can't be reasoned with unless they're removed from the source.

It's the same with some Obama supporters. I hate to say all Obama supporters because not all of them are as obnoxious as the ones on DU.

I think some of them have the potential to be dangerous--as a group--not individually. In groups they feel powerful but alone they can't stand up to anybody.

11. It's a 3-6 month thing, infatuation. Some are waking up. Some are just starting.
