Holy crap

It’s election season and DNC week; it is definitely time for some more hysterically overblown Obama deification. Arise, ye Ozymandian structures! Peddle, ye swappers of swag!

I don’t know; it seems to me the DNC is dumbing messiah down. Meh, some Anointed One: can’t even earn a letter grade on the economy (semantics: you don’t earn Fs), can’t stop the storms nor calm the seas, and can’t even take a joke.

But I must acknowledge that the Old Testament reference nicely balances out Chris Matthews’ likening Obama to “the New Testament” even if it doesn’t grant Obama his own, new chapter in the Bible, let alone place him greater than Jesus.
