It just doesn't quit. Even the jaded continue to be amazed at the unbridled worship of Barack Obama. Here, "Newsweek" hack Evan Thomas compares Obama to God and the chalky voice of Chris Matthews chimes in with "Yeah."
Watching Thomas and Matthews is like watching two winos wallow in their own regurgitation. Yes, there is pity and nervous chuckling but there is also the sensation of displaced shame. It is a collective embarassment, not just for the shameless, but for all of humanity. A sobering reminder that human folly knows no limit.
SHOULD WE LAUGH OR CRY?
