Mickey McClean at WORLD Mag writes this about Newsweek's Evan Thomas
'Obama = God' statement:
Since the presidential campaign, conservatives often have pointed out that the left and its acolytes in the mainstream media worship Barack Obama as their messiah, a claim that has been dismissed as partisan rhetoric. Now Newsweek Editor Evan Thomas flat out admits it. On MSNBC’s Hardball Friday night, he tells Chris Matthews, “In a way, Obama’s standing above the country, above the world, he’s sort of God.” To which you hear Matthews in agreement, saying, “Yeah.”
Then, in an appearance on WJLA’s Inside Washington this weekend, Thomas continued his adoration of Obama in messiah-like language: “We’re understanding what Obama is. He’s the great teacher. He is this guy that stands above everybody . . . and says, ‘Now, listen. You people have to stop blaming each other unreasonably. You have to get along here and I’m going to show you the way.’”
