Obama, Being of Light

Mark Morford is one of the zaniest moonbats in San Francisco. He writes for SF Gate, an online publication of the San Francisco Chronicle. Last Friday his column about Obama wasn't as much praise as it was worship. I think ol' Moonbat Morford has started a new religion. This must be what they mean by the Obamessiah.

Morford writes:

Here's where it gets gooey. Many spiritually advanced people I know (not coweringly religious, mind you, but deeply spiritual) identify Obama as a Lightworker, that rare kind of attuned being who has the ability to lead us not merely to new foreign policies or health care plans or whatnot, but who can actually help usher in a new way of being on the planet, of relating and connecting and engaging with this bizarre earthly experiment. These kinds of people actually help us evolve. They are philosophers and peacemakers of a very high order, and they speak not just to reason or emotion, but to the soul.

He makes Obama sound like Obe Wan Kenobe, or some spiritual being with a third eye in the middle of his forehead, a first cousin to Vishnu. I feel like burning incense and chanting, while plunking out exotic notes from a sitar (doiiiing, doiiiiing, doing). I really do. Ommmm, Ommmm! That's just my mantra, don't be alarmed. The last time I felt like that it was the 1960's and I was beginning to suspect the pill someone gave me was not a Certs breath mint after all.

A few weeks ago I wrote about how Obama is a kind of political ink blot, a Rorsach Ink Blot, as in the psychological test of old, where mental patients would review a random ink blot and project their fantasies onto it. To some, the ink blot looked like a butterfly, to others, Dick Cheney.

Obama the Ink Blot is still working. Moonbats are still projecting their fantasies onto the empty suit, not only imagining that he is an intelligent, purposeful candidate, but that he is some kind of spirit being. No doubt it helps if you're high on something before meditating on the Obamessiah.

Assume the full lotus position, please. Ommmmm, Ommmmmm.
