“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Does The One believe his own press clippings?

Over at NewsBusters, they have the video clip of a revealing comment by an Obama follower, but here are the basics......

The co-chair of Barack Obama's Transition Team, Valerie Jarrett, appeared on Meet the Press this weekend and used, shall we say, an interesting word to described what she thinks Barack Obama will be doing in January when he's officially sworn into office.

Jarret told Brokaw that "given the daunting challenges that we face, it's important that president elect Obama is prepared to really take power and begin to rule day one."


That's right, she said "rule". With all the sickening talk of "the Annointed One", and "The Messiah", and "The One", and "The Savior" that we've had to listen to for the past two years, you'd think the Obamacons would refrain from using terms that reveal what they really think about his being President. Because what they really think is that he's the new King of America. That he won't be inaugurated, but coronated. That his work tools aren't a suit and fountain pen, but a red velvet robe and a sceptre. That the people don't govern themselves by representation, but that Obama rules by imperial decree and his word is the law of the land.

With entitlement-minded sycophants like this around him, I shudder to think of what he might attempt in his first 100days.
