Obama Messiah Complex

Barack Obama is just another same ol' politician. He tells different people different things. He says he's not going to run negative ads and yet he runs a mudslinging ad on TV against John McCain. He's polished when the prompter is on but if you shut it off and have him speak off the cuff, Obama stutters and stammers and fumbles, just like George W. Bush. And that's when it occured to me:

The opposite of Bush Derangement Syndrome is the Obama Messiah Complex.

What are the marks of Bush Derangement Syndrome? Blind hatred. Demonization. Reflexive opposition to any Bush proposal, policy, or position. With the Obama Messiah Complex we have the exact opposite: blind acceptance, exaltation, automatic acceptance of Obama proposals, policies, or positions.

I'd say this is how Obama emerged victorious in the Democratic Party primary - Obama Messiah Complex is positive (whereas BDS is negative). People got all wrapped up in hope, change, new politics, and so forth. No surprise then that the more radical portion of the left backed Barack early on (whereas Democrats we could call more moderate leaned toward Hillary). If you have BDS, you probably also have Obama Messiah Complex. The combination is a political bipolar disorder.

Hi Josh,

When money, religion, and politics fail dramatically in the very near future, only truth, justice, and verifiable wisdom are going to save humanity. Politicians and politics are about to become one of history's great lessons in folly.

When the full scope of human civilization is analyzed, it becomes abundantly clear that its pillars are money, religion, and politics. Of the three, money is by far the most important because politics and religion rely on it for existence. All three are great deceptions (strong lies) secretly managed by the Vatican and its secret society cohorts. This fact has been expertly hidden over the last two centuries. Money, religion and politics are Machiavellian deceptions whose common purpose is mass exploitation. Very few people understand that all three are tightly synchronized and interdependent logic traps. Consequently, to continue trying to win at such long-term and highly developed shell (and shill) games is absolute folly. Until we turn away from such obvious delusions, humanity’s great struggles and suffering will never end.

Here is Wisdom !!

That blog comment experimentally falsifies what I had previously held to be an upper limit on the density of crap... in a blog comment.

Yeah, I would have trashed it, but it was such a remarkable load of crap. It's like driving by a car wreck - you have to look.
