BHO, Congregants, And Easter 2010

Not much makes me gasp anymore. But this blasphemy does. And on the holiest of Christian Holy Days!

From this posting at Infidel Bloggers Alliance (citing Politico 22):

Congregation Sang "Alleluia" When Obama Entered Church for Easter Service

The first family attended Easter services Sunday at Allen Chapel, an African Methodist Episcopal church in Southeast Washington...

...[W]orshippers stood, clapped and sang "Alleilua’" [sic] when the first family entered via a side door at 11:05 a.m., according to the pool report.

[...]

[The Rev. Dr. Michael E.] Bell [pastor of the congregation] referred to the president as the "most intelligent, most anointed, most charismatic president of America," and called Mrs. Obama "his beautiful wife — TV cameras don’t do her justice."

I heartily concur with Z's comment over at Infidel Bloggers Alliance:

Oops...I thought he's not attending churches because he creates too much of a diversion? Right? Isn't that the excuse he uses so he doesn't have to attend the churches most American presidents have attended while in DC?
But, the diversion was fine as long as they were praising HIM?
Any decent man with any respect for our God would have stood up and thanked the crowd but asked them to please remember who they're there to worship and to just treat him and his family like the 'normal folks' he likes to refer to himself as.

And as Brooke pointed out in the same comments thread:

Would you not fear the Lord if that occurred in your church? Would you not RUN for the door?

The first of the Ten Commandments, a commandment cast to the side on Easter Sunday in Allan Chapel:

Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

This Obama worship will come to no good end.

This Morning On NBC's Today Show (video added)

(Two posts today. Please scroll down)

Something very like this from CNBC's John Harwood as he and the show anchor we discussing that parents shouldn't be concerned about BHO's upcoming national address to schoolchildren on September 8:

"Parents who object to the President speaking to schoolchildren aren't able to raise their children very effectively."

This is what the majority of Americans accept as news and words from an expert?

1. The mainstream media will not say anything negative about BHO's power grab and appointees. See Epa's post at Infidel Bloggers Alliance.

2. Having concerns about "The One" means that you are an unfit parent.

Get the picture?

Dangerous Thinking

From this letter to the editor of the Washington Post:

It is now up to us -- the people who voted for him -- to show massive support. It is up to us to put pressure on our senators and representatives to pass this budget.

If this budget fails, then it is we who have failed, not Mr. Obama.

Read the entire letter here.

Now consider the following information excerpted from the book Captive Hearts, Captive Minds by Madeleine Landau Tobias and Janja Lalich:

In cults and abusive relationships, those in a subordinate position usually come to accept the abuse as their fault, believing that they deserve the foul treatment or that it is for their own good. They sometimes persist in believing that they are bad rather than considering that the person upon whom they are so dependent is cruel, untrustworthy, and unreliable. It is simply too frightening for them to do that: it threatens the balance of power and means risking total rejection, loss, and perhaps even death of self or loved ones.

This explains why an abused cult follower may become disenchanted with the relationship or the group yet continue to believe in the teachings, goodness, and power of the leader.

Let's go back to a year ago.

Video made before the November 4 election:



CNN video, February 15, 2008:



The signs of The Obama Cult were present. Like all cult followers, those caught up in the momentum of the cult did not see the danger signs — nor do BHO's followers and defenders see the danger signs now, as evidenced by the letter to the editor cited at the beginning of this post. How does one reason with these people?

Instant Bestseller: Pocket Obama

(With a hat tip to this posting by Midnight Rider at Infidel Bloggers Alliance)

Now the Cult of Obama has its own little pocket "holy book," so that the cult followers can carry around with them at all times the important words of "The One."

The book went on sale on January 8, 2009, and is already sold out at Amazon. From the Amazon web site (emphases mine):

Product Description
Printed in a size that easily fits into pocket or purse, this book is an anthology of quotations borrowed from Barack Obama's speeches and writings. POCKET OBAMA serves as a reminder of the amazing power of oratory and the remarkable ability of this man to move people with his words. His superb and captivating oratory style has earned comparisons to John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, and this collection presents words that catapulted his remarkable rise to the American Presidency. Includes themes of democracy, politics, war, terrorism, race, community, jurisprudence, faith, personal responsibility, national identity, and above all, his hoped-for vision of a new America. This book is truly a primer for readers who want to examine the substance of his thought and reflect on the next great chapter in the American story. It is an unofficial requirement for every citizen to own, to read, and to carry this book at all times.

Midnight Rider made the following astute observation and has the screenshots to prove what might disappear from Amazon as complaints and satiric reviews appear at the web site:

Particularly disturbing, when you roll over other images beneath the main, Chairman Mao's Little Red Book comes up.

When John F. Kennedy was elected, his book Profiles in Courage became required reading for many students in high school and at the university level. But Kennedy's book was never lauded in the same manner and, as far as I know, never had a special little edition of "The One's" words to carry over one's heart. In other words, Kennedy's book did not begin to approach the tone of cult. After he was assassinated, yes, the Cult of Camelot arose. But, again, that particular cult never carried the impact and extent of what we're seeing right now before Barack Hussein Obama has served even a full week in office.

We are witnessing the Cult of Obama as it grows and grows and grows. Dangerous. Dangerous in the extreme.
