OK, so the audacity of ego continues. The O Team are going to present their guy on a stage in Denver fashioned to look like a Greek temple...poor photo below:
I don't know about you, but my "Ick Meter" is really getting pegged. It's bad enough we have to do this thing in a stadium...oh, a regular conference hall isn't good enough for the Big O. But now this set. I love what the folks at Political Inquirer ginned up above to truly illustrate the bloated ego of the Big O...and the creepy people that apparently surround him, fawning up to him like Gollum to Frodo in "Lord of the Rings."
I can see his folks texting each other: "OMP (Oh my preeesciouus...for you LOTR fans), he's like a god u no...let's put him in a temple!" Keep it up Dems - this kind of sick adulation will backfire. America will watch the throngs of descamisados swoon in Denver while they barf their dinners up in Akron. Have you already forgotten the Berlin Bounce? Oh wait, there was no bounce. Compared to this clown show, Bill Clinton looks statesmanlike!
All of this for some reason reminds me of the last scene in Patton. Not that there is ANY semblance between the good general and Barry O...merely the following closing soliloquy:
"For over a thousand years, Roman conquerors returning from the wars enjoyed the honor of a triumph, a tumultuous parade. In the procession came trumpeters and musicians and strange animals from the conquered territories, together with carts, laden with treasure and captured armaments. The conqueror rode in a triumphal chariot, the dazed prisoners walking in chains before him. Sometimes, his children, robed in white, stood with him in the chariot or rode the trace horses. A slave stood behind the conqueror, holding a golden crown, and whispering in his ear a warning, that all glory is fleeting."
All glory IS fleeting and I suspicion that the date stamp on Barry O is approaching fast.
Rumble on!
