Hero worship. Cult of personality.
Scary stuff, to be sure. Names such as Hilter, Stalin, and Hussein come to mind.
We may need to add Obama.
Now, those who know me will say that I'm very balanced when it comes to Obama, and I don't believe 90 percent of the crap that is out there on both sides. Nor do I necessarily blame him for this....but it has to stop.
Could you imagine if this had happened when Bush was in the White House? But it's apparently ok when we brainwash the kids to love our wonderful current leader... (shudder)
So to my liberal friends...you want me to idolize Obama? Sure thing. All he has to do is...well, SOMETHING. He's got the most liberal Congress in memory, goodwill around the globe, and he still can't get anything accomplished.
I'm not blaming Obama for this. What people do outside the White House isn't his fault, or his call. I AM, however, blaming stupidity, and possibly worse than that, naivety. He's not the messiah, folks. Whether or not you're religious, he's really not the savior of the human race. He's a man. A smart one. A misguided one, if you ask me, but smart nonetheless. But he's just a man.
Singing kumbaya isn't going to fix this country. Putting leaders in office who can get things done will fix this country.
