The Washington Post thinks Barack Obama may have a problem with hubris.
In a meeting yesterday with House members Obama was reported to have said:
“This is the moment . . . that the world is waiting for,” adding: “I have become a symbol of the possibility of America returning to our best traditions.”
What wasn’t reported on were Barack’s comments following that:
Once more Barack addressed the crowd. he said, I am the Light of the world. He who follows Me will not be walking in the dark, but will have the Light which is Life.
Whereupon Republican skeptics told him, you are testifying on your own behalf; your testimony is not valid and is worthless.
Barack answered, Even if I do testify on my own behalf, my testimony is true and reliable and valid, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from or where I am going.
You [set yourself up to] judge according to the flesh (by what you see). [You condemn by external, human standards.] I do not [set myself up to] judge or condemn or sentence anyone.
Yet even if I do judge, my judgment is true [my decision is right]; for I am not alone [in making it], but [there are two of Us] I and the Angry Michelle, Who sent Me.
In your [own] Law it is written that the testimony (evidence) of two persons is reliable and valid.
I am One [of the two] bearing testimony concerning myself; and Angry Michelle, who sent Me, she also testifies about me.
Then they said to him, Where is this Angry Michelle of Yours? Barack answered, you know my Angry Michelle as little as you know me. If you knew me, you would know my Angry Michelle.

Obama left hubris behind long ago. I’m beginning to think he needs an intervention of some kind to reattach him to reality.
My anti-spam word was “letsgocrew”, and I nearly responded, “sorry, I’m taken”.
If the world has been waiting for Obama, they can have him.
