Also Creepy

So the racism thing didn't stick. Accusing McCain of using phallic symbols in his adds didn't work either. Hmmm...Let's try a different angle. I know:

An Anti-Christ Obama in McCain Add?

Wait a minute, I'm confused. I thought Karl Rove was Satan.

First off, after 8 years of comparing President Bush to Adolf Hitler, Guantanamo to Auschwitz, US troops to concentration camp guards, and conservative bloggers to brownshirts, is the left seriously going to whine about Obama being compared to the anti-Christ? The McCain add, "The One," strings together absurdly narcissistic quotes from Obama and uses Obama's own words to make him look foolish; sounds like clever campaigning to me.

Second, so Democrats nominated a candidate that reminds bible beaters of the anti-Christ, how exactly is that McCain's fault? Obama's own campaign intentionally built the cult of personality around Obama -- the face posters, mass rallies, chanting, idiotic sloganeering, large crowds of adoring Germans. I wouldn't call him the anti-Christ; personally, he reminds me more of Lenin sans the goatee. However, the point is, to quite a few people, Obama's campaign is starting to look a little creepy. Actually, it's really creepy.
