I'm sure you were outraged these last 8 years then.

How do you do it?

Gee that's funny, JP. I don't see anything to indicate that Steve was outraged by that e mail.

It's quite clear that Obama is seen as a god, a savior, a prophet by a good number of people who idolize him.

Do I get outraged by it? No, why should I? I know he's just an empty suit and many will see that with time.

There is no mainstream idolization of President Bush. Jesus Camp is strictly the wacky fringe. Who cares what they think and do.

Obama on the other hand is running for the Presidency and it is mainstream liberals who are worshiping him. Obama is also quite content to accept all the adulation from his people.

This is also about the indoctrination of children. They heard the words or tone from someplace-home, school, or TV.

Bush on the other hand most likely doesn't even know about these people-if they are real that is, and even if he does it doesn't matter. They're not out influencing people to worship President Bush.

Your equating Obama with Jesus Camp is like comparing apples and oranges.

Here a probable explantion. The kids parents listen to Rush. The kids overheard Rush describing Obama as the Messiah. After all I've only heard right wing, extremist shock jocks refer to Obama as the Messiah.

"After all I've only heard right wing, extremist shock jocks refer to Obama as the Messiah."

Here. Listen to Louis Farrakhan specifically call Obama the Messiah; not as a tongue-in-cheek reference to his cult of personality. So, your problem is solved. Farrakhan is a "great" endorsement, you know.

Now as you also know, the terms "Messiah" and "The One" have always been used sarcastically by those who you describe as "right wing, extremist shock jocks", but Farrakhan was completely serious with his description.

Isaiah 5: 20
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Tom, do you think that Louis Farrakhan speaks for the contemporary left? McCain has been endorsed by worse people, and so too has Obama, I'm sure.

Im sure they,ll have the kids to bow down to him and grovel at his feet and declare hima great prophet and pray in front of his pictures OBAMA THE EVIL FALSE PROPHET

"Tom, do you think that Louis Farrakhan speaks for the contemporary left?"

I sincerely hope that was a rhetorical question. I recommend you re-read my comment and take it at face value.

"Tom, do you think that Louis Farrakhan speaks for the contemporary left?"

Hyper, did you watch the video and see the size of the crowd? Did you not hear Farrakhan say the words "universal" and "youth"? What is your definition of contemporary? You have to be in denial.
