    The Dems use even a less subtle form or racism calling conservatives "old white men" . Come to think about it... it's sexist too .

    Nice try, but besides his satire the humor is that people he mentioned (Chris Matthews,Lawrence O'Donnell, Geoffrey Dunn - all true incidents) take it seriously.

    Go ask your black friends if they take right wing commentary as serious, or insulting, or as you say, humourous satire.

    You don't have to believe those old talking head white guys liberals.

    We have, over and over... the problem is the average Democrat has an attention span of a 3 year old. They are lucky to remember what they ate for breakfast today much less anything that happened list week or last year.

    Hell some of them think Bush is still in office.

    Naw, it comes off as something he truly believes, then others pass it off as a belief of the others. Weird sense of humour indeed.

    Dude, give it up. You're not being successful at covering up the fact you didn't recognize his style as satire, but then I should have known not enter into a battle of wits with an unarmed person.

    It's odd because are the only one perpetuating this "dog whistle" thing even though it's apparently only a joke... a joke made by a fellow righty.

    Same thing with the messiah thing.. or the emperor thing.. the righties are the only ones calling him that. Are these jokes too? How old are you guys anyway? It shows your level of intellect.

    Dude, you're making less and less sense every minute. I have no idea why you keep trying to make whatever point here it is you're trying to make because it's totally incoherent, which shows your level of intellect.

    Yup. When my little brother had no reasonable argument, he too would start calling the other person names.

    What you thought it was a joke that us liberals have to drag the right kicking and screaming into the future?

    Then they should stop treating everything he says like its gospel from the mouth of the messiah himself.

    He lies constantly... and any thinking person knows it's a lie... but if anyone contradicts the Messiah... its like Muslims over a cartoon of Mo HAM Ed... they get their panties in a knot and start killing people and blowing things up.

    We call it like it is because he's treated exactly like some religious figure. In fact he's treated MORE like a religious figure by democrats than the Pope is by Catholics.

    As if this hasn't been posted before, but the origins of us calling him the Messiah:

    "We have an amazing story to tell," she said. "This president has brought us out of the dark and into the light."

    -- Michelle Obama

    "Obama is, of course, greater than Jesus."

    -- Politiken (Danish newspaper)

    "No one saw him coming, and Christians believe God comes at us from strange angles and places we don't expect, like Jesus being born in a manger."

    --Lawrence Carter

    "Many even see in Obama a messiah-like figure, a great soul, and some affectionately call him Mahatma Obama."

    -- Dinesh Sharma


    "We just like to say his name. We are considering taking it as a mantra."

    -- Chicago] Sun-Times

    "A Lightworker -- An Attuned Being with Powerful Luminosity and High-Vibration Integrity who will actually help usher in a New Way of Being"

    -- Mark Morford

    "He communicates God-like energy..."

    -- Steve Davis (Charleston, SC)

    "I'll do whatever he says to do. I'll collect paper cups off the ground to make his pathway clear."

    -- Halle Berry

    "A quantum leap in American consciousness"

    -- Deepak Chopra

    "He is not operating on the same plane as ordinary politicians.
    .. . The agent of transformation in an age of revolution, as a figure uniquely qualified to open the door to the 21st century."

    -- Gary Hart

    "Barack Obama is our collective representation of our purest hopes, our highest visions and our deepest knowings . . . He's our product out of the all-knowing quantum field of intelligence."

    -- Eve Konstantine

    "This is bigger than Kennedy.. . This is the New Testament." | "I felt this thrill going up my leg. I mean, I don't have that too often. No, seriously. It's a dramatic event."

    -- Chris Matthews

    "We're here to evolve to a higher plane.. . He is an evolved leader.. . [he] has an ear for eloquence and a Tongue dipped in the Unvarnished Truth."

    -- Oprah Winfrey

    We aren't the ones that made him a Messiah, but then you all already know that.
