Barry Obama — A Symbol of Something, All Right…

The magnitude of this man’s hubris is unparalleled.

Though, when he has the entirety of the main stream media fawning, gushing, and lusting after him — and shamelessly working to elect him — is it any wonder Obama is starting to believe in his own messianic destiny?

In his closed door meeting with House Democrats this evening, presumptive Democratic nominee Barack Obama delivered a real zinger. According to a witness, he was waxing lyrical about last week’s trip to Europe, when he concluded, “this is the moment, as Nancy [Pelosi] noted, that the world is waiting for.”

The 200,000 souls who thronged to his speech in Berlin came not just for him, he told the enthralled audience of congressional representatives.

“I have become a symbol of the possibility of America returning to our best traditions,” he said.

Oh, you’ve become a symbol of something, all right Barry…but it has nothing to do with America’s greatness (something you know nothing about)…

How sad that he doesn’t believe in America’s greatness. Only the greatness that could be if only he were our Leader.

  1. It’s funny that a media that is “fawning, gushing, and lusting after him — and shamelessly working to elect him” would twist a humble quote into something malicious.

    The entire quote:

    It has become increasingly clear in my travel, the campaign, that the crowds, the enthusiasm, 200,000 people in Berlin, is not about me at all. It’s about America. I have become a symbol of the possibility of America returning to our best traditions.

    They came for the beer and the free rock concert, the beer, the brats, and don’t forget the beer.
    Oh…and for hopiness and changeyness.

  3. Right. Like the 75,000 people in Portland who flocked to see a band that is usually lucky to fill 1000 seats.

  5. Will there be Communists for Obama in 2008? It seems that there already are 75,000 in Oregon. Oh well. There will always be the People’s Cube.
