They elevate. . . . He is not the Word made flesh, but the triumph of word over flesh . . .

That’s not routine. There’s something else going on. I think that Obama, his election to the Senate, was divinely ordered. . . . I know that that was God’s plan.”– Bill Rush “I cried all night. I’m going to be crying for the next four years,” he said. “What Barack Obama has accomplished is the single most extraordinary event that has occurred in the 232 years of the nation’s political history. … The event itself is so extraordinary that another chapter could be added to the Bible to chronicle its significance.” — Rev. Jesse Jackson Jr. ” I grabbed these quotes all-in-a-row  from Obama for Messiah.(cool artwork).  I've posted all of them before, but what the heck. BTW,  the bonus Matthews clip is special. Mary Katharine Ham captured  his over the top sycophancy completely, and early on.. You can see the whole video here. Chris Matthews plays "Don't Say Obama (33 secs)
