Investor's Business Daily has put up a pretty good article on the creepy cult of personality created by President Obama.

First, that tells you a lot about the people who both create this kind of image, and about those who follow him.

Second, imagine something like this coming from George Bush.  Can't.

From the article:

In totalitarian countries, leaders can force their greatness on unwilling subjects because they own the press, they own the entertainment industry and they own all the schools.

But here in the U.S., we don't worship our presidents. We hire them to do a job for us. And we only pledge allegiance to the flag — the one with 50 stars and 13 stripes.
