MahatmObama

You may find this article interesting. Where I think the article is spot on is how the break down of the family unit and the removal of God from our public life has lead some people who want something to "believe" and trust in. Since we are being told by many on the left that a family is whatever you want it to be and that God is not where are morals and laws derive from, it is natural for many to be duped into the socialist/Marxist abyss.

So what is the source of this infatuation with Obama? How to explain the hysteria? The religious fervor? The devotion? The weeping and fainting and utter euphoria surrounding a candidate who had the audacity to run for leader of the free world on a platform of mere hope?
If anthropologists made predictions the way meteorologists do, they might have anticipated Obama's astronomical rise to supernova status in 2008 of the Common Era. Consider the cultural coordinates, and Obama's intersection with history becomes almost inevitable.
To play weatherman for a moment, he is a perfect storm of the culture of narcissism, the cult of celebrity, and a secular society in which fathers (both the holy and the secular) have been increasingly marginalized from the lives of a generation of young Americans.
All of these trends have been gaining momentum the past few decades. Social critic Christopher Lasch named the culture of narcissism a generation ago and cited addiction to celebrity as one of the disease's symptoms -- all tied to the decline of the family.....
Here's how a 20-year-old woman in Seattle described that Obama feeling: "When he was talking about hope, it actually almost made me cry. Like it really made sense, like, for the first, like, whoa ... "
This New Age glossolalia may be more sonorous than the guttural emanations from the revival tent, but the emotion is the same. It's all religion by any other name.
Whatever the Church of Obama promises, we should not mistake this movement for a renaissance of reason. It is more like, well, like whoa.
When I here MahatamObama speak, the word "Movement" does come to mind, but the kind where you need a magazine and a candle!

Prophet Obama; World Citizen National Disgrace

If one does not believe Barry to be bad for America, then read what his bill in the senate will do if passed.
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=70308
The U.S. Senate soon could debate whether you, your spouse and each of your children – as well as your in-laws, parents, grandparents, neighbors and everyone else in America – each will spend $2,500 or more to reduce poverty around the world.
The plan sponsored by Sen. Barack Obama, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, is estimated to cost the U.S. some $845 billion over the coming few years in an effort to raise the standard of living around the globe.....if approved, dedicates 0.7 percent of the U.S. gross national product to foreign aid, which over 13 years, he said, would amount to $845 billion "over and above what the U.S. already spends."
And here is the the messhiah Barry in his own words "Obama said. "It must be a priority of American foreign policy to commit to eliminating extreme poverty and ensuring every child has food, shelter, and clean drinking water. As we strive to rebuild America's standing in the world, this important bill will demonstrate our promise and commitment to those in the developing world.
"Our commitment to the global economy must extend beyond trade agreements that are more about increasing profits than about helping workers and small farmers everywhere,"
Sorry messiah B, it is not our job and unfortunately we still support the UN. If private organizations want to donate to the poor of the world, then great. But for our government to do it is wrong. We need to keep our wealth in our country. But Barry Hussein and those like him who want a socilalist or Marxist One World Order are the most dangerous enemy of all: They are inside our gates, they pander to the emotions of people, they tell us how bad and mean we are. That if a hardworking American earns more than $250,000 a year they are wealthy, thus evil. That all people should share in the rewards of hard work and effort, even if they don't earn it.
Bottom line: America is quickly approaching a fork in the political road. Turn right and drive back towards the light of rugged individualism and self support with limited government intervention. Or turn left towards the dark shadows of liberalism/socialism/ Marxism. Where the government is your nanny, providing Pamper to Depends care for all. Where our laws are second to the international court. Where there are no borders. Where freedom of speech is labeled Hate Speech. Plain and simple: It is a path to evil.
