I kid you not.

"I mean in a way Obama's standing above the country, above - above the
world, he's sort of God..."

This seems to be the general opinion of the Nutroots. Which is kind of
interesting when you think about it. All that laughing about those who
have faith and believe in a God and they were so jealous, they had to
go out and invent their own.

Amazing world we live in isn't it?



All things considered, I thought his Cairo speech was well done. It is a
tough balance between mending fences without totally capitulating.

He's making a lot of promises to the world that he better be prepared to
deliver on however. Otherwise he may find himself in deep doo-doo. I am
afraid that other countries may not endorse his "can't we just get along"
promotion. History says they won't, and he had better be prepared to take
care of Number One.

His only promise is that we'll be honest brokers while protecting our
interests, unlike previous leaders.

The middle east knows that talk is cheap but good intentions have
value and, in Obama, we have a leader who's capable of brokering
honest dialogue.

It's refreshing to have a politically savvy leader who can help more
than he hurts.
