Newsweek: President Elect Obama is "Creepy"!

Barack Obama is my President. He is the President of the United States of America...that's a done deal. This in no way changes what I believe about him. I am just waiting for the day when those who so enthusatistically voted him into office realize they bought into someone who is not capable of accomplishing the things he promised but rather were sold a bill of goods by a very sophisciated used car salesman!

What I cannot believe nor explain is the behavior of most of the main stream media who, even though they were not convinced of Mr. Obama's credibility pushed for his election. Part of the explanation has to be so they could claim at least partial responsibility for getting the first black man elected to the hightest office in the country and pad their diversity credentials regardless of the impact on the country and the world. Sheer arrogance coupled with blatant ingnorance!

Here is the proof of that behavior. Wednesday night on the Charlie Rose Show, Evan Thomas and Jon Meacham from Newsweek are on the show talking about Obama and how "creepy" he is...


MEACHAM: He's very elusive, Obama, which is fascinating for a man who's written two memoirs. At Grant Park he walks out with the family, and then they go away.

ROSE: Mmm. Mmm-hmm.

MEACHAM: Biden's back, you know, locked in the bar or something.

ROSE: (haughty chuckle)

MEACHAM: You know, they don't let him out. And have you ever seen a victory speech where there was no one else on stage?

ROSE: Mmm.

MEACHAM: No adoring wife, no cute kid. He is the messenger.

THOMAS: There is a slightly creepy cult of personality about all this. I mean, he's such an admirable --

ROSE: Slightly. Creepy. Cult of personality.
THOMAS: Yes.
ROSE: What's slightly creepy about it?

THOMAS: It -- it -- it just makes me a little uneasy that he's so singular. He's clearly managing his own spectacle. He's a deeply manipulative guy.

MY COMMENT: These guys, they've been bugged by Obama all this time, they buried it, and only now they are starting to admit how they really feel, "slightly creepy cult of personality about this that just makes me a little uneasy, so singular, clearly managing his own spectacle, he's a deeply manipulative guy." You are hearing fear expressed here. The conversation continues...

ROSE: Watching him last night in that speech, he finishes --

MEACHAM: Yeah.

ROSE: -- and he sort of -- it's almost like he then ascends to look at the circumstance.

MEACHAM: He watches us watching him.

THOMAS: Watching him!

ROSE: Exactly!

THOMAS: He does --

MEACHAM: It's amazing.

ROSE: It is amazing.

THOMAS: He writes about this metaphor being a screen upon which Americans will project. He said they want of Barack Obama; I'm not sure I am Barack Obama.

ROSE: Mmm.

THOMAS: He has the self-awareness to know that this creature he's designed isn't necessarily a real person, and he's self-aware enough --

ROSE: Ahhhhhh.

MY COMMENT: They are now saying Mr. Obams ascends after his speech. He ascends and he watches us watching him. He has a self-awareness to know that this creature he's designed isn't necessarily a real person. What, are they calling him a phony? Yes indeed they are. So...buyers remorse started even before the purchase was made! And now they are afraind of what they bought! This is going to be interesting folks.
