Narcissism, thy name is Obama
2010-02-07
How far will it go? That stage set in Denver made me think about classical history, specifically Rome, and even more specifically Caligula, who became convinced he was a god:

In AD 40Â…Caligula began appearing in public dressed as various gods and demigods such as Hercules, Mercury, Venus and Apollo.

I'm not saying it will come to pass in exactly that way, and that Obama will declare himself to be a deity. In fact, I'll even go on record as saying he won't. Nevertheless, something is very wrong with this man, and it is growing stronger every day.


Read the comments, too.

#8  I'd trust any given horse to be a better, more effective Senator than most of the clowns we already have.

Redneck Jim, you're skating really close to being banned. There are very few things that get people banned here. One of them is repeated race baiting of the not so subtle sort you're indulging in.

Enough.

#5  Caligula appointed a horse to the Roman Senate. Al Franken fulfills half of that role.

#3  I have been lectured in this forum for comparing our White House Wizzard to Emperor Gaius. Others seem to have arrived at the same conclusion however.
