An Unhealthy Sense Of Self
President Obama’s epic egotism is reaching such stratospheric heights that it now rivals that of even the mighty John Edwards, self-proclaimed Most Beautiful Man Alive™.
According to Fox News, the president has managed to talk about himself 1,198 times during a mere 41 speeches so far this year.
Not bad!
But, really, what better topic is there?
The choice is either to speechify about the myriad problems afflicting the US (boooorrrring!) or wax lyrical on an issue of which he never tires – his very own self.
This should come as no surprise, after all, from the man who saw fit to give Queen Elizabeth II an iPod stuffed to bursting with a variety of photos/songs/speeches, all of which centered around, erm, him.
Sure, he’s a member of pretty much the most elite club going, but one’s achievements are amplified by modesty and diminished by pride, a lesson that the 44th president has yet to learn.
Could it perhaps be that the popular worship of the president, led by the ever-faithful MSM, is contributing to his exaggerated sense of self?
Just try telling me that this shrine wouldn’t make you believe your own hype.
Enjoy it while you can, Mr. President, because nothing lasts forever.

Pagan idolatry always ends badly.

His constant need to revel in his perceived wonderfulness reveals a person that has a deep-seated sense of doubt and inadequacy.

Kevin Smith said of Prince, “He’s been living in Prince land a long time…” in reference to Prince’s need to have a live camel delivered to his house in the middle of the night. I think Obama’s been living in Obama land too long.

Can I get a copy of that ipod upload? I just drank some Kool Aid and I think it would be great fun to listen to ALL OBAMA, ALL THE TIME.

chicken – great analogy, love it.
Candle – indeed, he’s lived nowhere but Obamaland, where all is sweetness and light.
ithitsthefan – couldn’t have put it better myself.
Ray – you’re set. Was your “Good God” in recognition of Barry’s super-overexposure?
Opus – be careful what you wish for!

Ridin high in April, shot down in May. It’s the way of the world.
I can’t wait. Even liberals can recognize when they become uncomfortable sometimes.

I love the Obama Time Magazine shrine. They’re about due, aren’t they?
Seems today at the U.N. was another big “All Obama, all the time” moment.
