If the fawning coverage for Candidate Obama weren't enough, the over-the-top worship of President Obama is too much. Our nation's media has always played an integral role in securing our freedom, serving as an independent "watchdog" on those in power. The watchdog which was so much the pit bull during the Bush administration is now a sycophantic lap dog. Witness these statements:
Newsweek's Evan Thomas:
Reagan was all about America, and you talked about it. Obama is - we are above that now. We're not just parochial, we're not just chauvinistic, we're not just provincial. We stand for something, I mean in a way Obama's standing above the country, above above the world, he's sort of God.
MSNBC's Chris Matthews (he of the "tingling leg"):
"Joining me now a couple of heavyweights. Howard Dean the man who really laid out the path for Barack Obama. He was the St. John the Baptist, I'd say, leading for that fellow, not to make any further reference there to the Deity."
Heaven help us!
