Invesco: Barack Obama Is The Conquering Greek Hero
OBAMANIA Watch - Anorak’s look at Barack Obama in the news…
Hail to the living Greek God! Barack is among us
Says EU Ref:
Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s big speech tonight will be delivered from an elaborate stage resembling a miniature Greek temple. The stage, similar to structures used for rock concerts, has been set up at the 50-yard-line, the midpoint of Invesco Field, the stadium where the Denver Broncos’ National Football League team plays.
Some 80,000 supporters will see Obama rise up appear from between plywood columns painted off-white, reminiscent of a Holy Shrine Washington’s Capitol building or even the White House, to accept the party’s nomination for God president.
He will stride out to a raised platform to a podium that can be raised from beneath the floor to the singing of a heavenly choir. Courtesy of Cartago Delenda Est, we have a preview of his costume.
The Archaic period is almost upon us…

Anything Graeco-Roman like this is just going to evoke memories of the Colonial past as in the film Gone With the Wind!
Some daft twat hasn’t thought this through. Black slavery comes to mind.
So Gone With (a bag of ) the Wind springs immediately to mind. Even the choir bit is going to evoke genetic memory of how things used to be!
Bad marketing all round really - in my most humble judgement.
Wrong way to impact on the red-neck supporters of the Democraticals.

My husband is a true Greek. This is so dramatic. Is this the prelude to what Obama truly is, an act?
