Look – “Obamessiah” was just a figure of speech; a reaction to some of his more overwrought, hyperbolic (?) supporters. To stuff like Michelle Obama saying he was the only thing that could save this nation’s soul – that kind of thing.
So try to track me here:Â Just because we joke about something doesn’t mean you have to live down to it.
Please tell me it’s a fiendishly-effective photoshop.
Please.
That is all.

[…] Looks like it was real and intentional Borders’ Obamessiah moment What section would a bookstore put some junior-reader biographies of Barack Obama? A Borders store in Dallas found the perfect spot (via Mitch Berg and Psycmeister): WND contacted Borders’ national office and got this response:Borders corporate spokeswoman Ann Roman told WND there was no intention on the part of the staff to associate books about the Obamas with religion. “We are a completely politically neutral organization,” she said. “As you can imagine we carry every political perspective, authors from both parties. “What happened here is those books were for kids and they were put under an overarching sign. Our team did not mean to imply an inappropriate classification,” she said. Hot Air Blog Archive Borders’ Obamessiah moment Now for the members here who thought that it was otherwise they really need to learn to think for themselves. The fact that some employee thought this was a good idea shows that we are seeing an infestation of those who hold Obama up as a savior. Just yesterday in the local paper there was a section that deals with asking people on the street questions and people on line can also participate The question was do you think the bailout will work. They ask six peope on the street and they post their pictures with their responses. Five said “that now that we have Obama the bailout will work” and the one left said that we will have to see. Those five people were black and the one was white. This exemplifies that some think of Obama as a savior and thus it can be assumed that we will see such behavior from some. After all we have seen those who have placed Obama on a pedestal and want to name things after him and have a holiday in his name . . __________________ Sam […]
