Thou shalt not take the Obamessiah’s name in vain?
August 2, 2008 American Politics 1 CommentBy Glendronach
A recent report has America’s comedians at last training their fire on Barack Obama’s messiah complex. But why do some of their jests now have the public profile of certain Danish cartoons?
On Tuesday, July 29, 2008 The Late Show with David Letterman was to have featured a list of the “Top Ten Signs Barack Obama is Overconfident”. The list is referenced in the show recap at the Late Show website but the full text appears to have been purged from the site, as described in this screenshot.
As well, in the actual program Letterman says the list is coming up after the commercial break, yet on his return he proceeds straight to an interview with guest Kevin Costner.

Is Obama’s Surge Purge becoming a new fad for celebrity copycatting? Or is His Vast Conspiracy™ spreading?
