Tim reur:

"Screaming and carrying on and crying and jumping up and down at rallies is the point. Babbling about hope and change and hope and change is the point. Gushing interviews on Oprah is the point. Sentimentality is the point."

"In all cases, without exception, those who worship Obama refuse to acknowledge he is human. I have never seen anyone who worships him admit he is even capable of being wrong - let alone that there is a policy they disagree with. He is perfect. Criticism and even discussion are even forbidden. He is a pseudo-religious figure."

You are by your words IMO confusing worship with "admiration" condemning "hope" as something distasteful and in effect lumping over half of the American voters into a cohesive group (of commoners) that somehow you fear might wrest control from the "pseudo aristocrats" (royals) you favor.

The thoughts you express bring to mind what could be the marching song of the reformation;

Oh! we aint got a barrel of money

Maybe were ragged and funny

But well travel along

singing a song

Side by side



I dont know whats a-comin tomorrow

Maybe its trouble and sorrow

But well travel the road

Sharing our load

Side by side



Thru all kinds of weather

What if the sky should fall

Just as long as were together

It really doesnt matter at all



When theyve all had their quarrels and parted

Well be the same as we started

Just traveling along

Singing a song

Side by side
