   It’s truly disturbing that the liberals have established Global Warming as a religion (with the Goreacle as its highpriest), and now Obama as their messiah.

   This is what happens when you are godless hippies.

    Too staid for my tastes. What about a giant plaster Lincoln head descending from the sky with Obama inside, and once it hits the stage he breaks through out of the top hat like the Hulk? Or how about the lights come up to reveal statues of Jesus, MLK, Gandhi, and The One — except his isn’t a statue, it’s really him and he was just standing perfectly still. Then he comes “magically” to life as the camera hits him. Awesome.

    That Allahpundit cracks me up!

    Could the Invesco Temple of O be a parallel to Nero’s massive extravagant personal palace that took up most of the good space in the middle of the city, and angered the populace?

    The next emperor tore it down and built the Forum in it’s place for the people. Good move.

    And did you read the link which MM posted up top:

    Some 80,000 supporters will see Obama appear from between plywood columns painted off-white, reminiscent of Washington’s Capitol building or even the White House, to accept the party’s nomination for president.

    Maybe the O campaign is looking for a different kind of symbolism…those columns also look a lot like those that adorned the mansions in the antebellum south. The message to black voters…takin’ ova da massah’a house.

    The beauty of symbolism is that interpretations are in the mind of the beholder. Curious that Hillary referenced the underground railroad, and slaves running from those who would keep them enslaved. They’ve opened the door to this type of thought, and elucidation.

    I’m just a regular guy, in a regular Greek Temple, on the 50 yard line of a stadium.

    I’m not running to be president of the United States, but King of the World. People like me, so if you elect me, the world will like you, too.

    And now I unveil my new campaign slogan: “Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s, and unto Obama, the things which are Obama’s.”

    Wha? What’d I do? Oh not me.

    Somehow I find Spinal Tap’s song for Stonehenge strangely appropo.

    In ancient times…
    Hundreds of years before the dawn of history
    Lived a strange race of people… the Druids

    No one knows who they were or what they were doing
    But their legacy remains
    Hewn into the living rock… Of Stonehenge

    Stonehenge! Where the demons dwell
    Where the banshees live and they do live well
    Stonehenge! Where a man’s a man
    And the children dance to the Pipes of Pan

    Hey!

    Stonehenge! ‘Tis a magic place
    Where the moon doth rise with a dragon’s face
    Stonehenge! Where the virgins lie
    And the prayers of devils fill the midnight sky

    And you my love, won’t you take my hand?
    We’ll go back in time to that mystic land
    Where the dew drops cry and the cats meow
    I will take you there, I will show you how

    Oh!

    And oh how they danced
    The little children of Stonehenge
    Beneath the haunted moon
    For fear that daybreak might come too soon

    And where are they now?
    The little people of Stonehenge
    And what would they say to us?
    If we were here… tonight

    Humility is a spiritual principle. Today’s popular culture idolizes and imitates those who narcissistically draw attention to themselves, usually in negative ways. Tila Tequila is an excellent example of this phenomenon. Also, the you-tube kids who video tape fights and dumb stunts, such as throwing a cup of soda back at the server at a drive thru window exemplify this form of social degradation. Likewise, Obama will attempt to draw attention to himself in any way he can. Obama understands the MTV shock culture that worships attention, thrill seeking and immediate gratification.

    Now I’m thinking of the movie Gladiator.

But he faces Maximus, a man who has personally fought the battles for Rome, and has the respect of the nation for it. Hmmmmm……

    Remember the stab in the ribs just before the fight to handicap the great warrior? That’s a parallel for the current media environment. The true warrior has to fight the boy emperor wounded from the start, but he still pulls it off. He did die anyway though.

    Just a thought.

    1. Hopenchange’s high water mark was when he finally slew the Dragon Lady and captured the donkey nomination. After this simultaneous peak-out/flame-out moment, he’s been falling back to Earth at an accelerating rate. The donkey gathering in Denver is in serious danger of becoming either a bounceless convention, or even a negative-bounce convention.

    2. The Invesco-Field-as-Munich-Rally tribute to Hopenchange’s mammoth ego has all the indicia of being his “Jump-the-Shark” moment. Anyone who doesn’t come away from Hopenchange’s over-the-top theatrical celebration of Self is either a Kool-Aid connoisseur or simply isn’t paying attention. There’s no third possibility.

    I can only imagine the hot tempers as people try to navigate the highways, biways and expressways outside the stadium. Completely inconvenienced by “the one” and for no reason except he thinks it’s cool.

    For the first time in their lives, Putin, Jong Il, & Ahmadinejad have all converted.

    They are praying to God that OBummer wins in November.

    Dr. Alveda King, daughter of MLK’s younger brother, the late slain civil rights activist Rev. A.D. King, says, “Senator Obama’s answer to the ills of society, of higher government spending, weaker national defense, continued tax dollars to Planned Parenthood, and support of gay marriage, are diametrically opposed to everything African Americans truly believe and an anathema to the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.”

    A Powerline photoshop of The One says it all.

    The pending Obama football stadium sideshow is taking on shades of the “Dragnet” movie where Dan Akroyd and Tom Hanks rescued the “Virgin Connie Swail”, during the “PAGAN” sacrificial ceremony. If this dolt wasn’t so dangerous he’d be a side splitting joke.

    That picture from PowerLine is hillarious! I particularly like the touch of Obama holding the arugula in one hand…

    Damnit! We need to strategically time our derision as to allow them to self-destuct without our warning.

    If they tear it down now, the “dream” really will be a revealed nightmare.

    Even better:

    There will be no parking at Invesco for Obama’s coronation.

    They want people to bike, walk or take public transit in keeping with the convention’s “green theme”.

    I can’t wait to see 80,000 people making the Obama pilgrimage on their knees, up the steps of Invesco, doing the universal Obama hand sign: the two-handed “O”.
