Gravitas

As I gaze in shock and awe at the Big Media lovefest surrounding Senator Obama:

Sen. Obama Encouraged to Seek Presidency

I recall that in 2000, according to many pundits, a Yale graduate, Harvard MBA, former fighter pilot and sitting governor of Texas lacked the gravitas to be President. So, what sort of gravitas does Senator Obama bring to the table? Or isn't that important any longer?

Folks, what we are witnessing is a textbook case of what psychologists call projection. I have a great respect for true leadership, but this fawning over someone whose primary qualifications are to have no qualifications to please take over and guide us poor souls to the promised land scares the bejeebus out of me.

The individual is dead! Long live the collective and our Dear Leader!
