A German who lived through the Third Reich (well, most of it–he was eventually killed but his diary survived) said that at Nazi rallies, some women became so Fuehrer-intoxicated that they ate dirt and gravel on which Hitler had walked.

This doesn’t quite sink to the same level, but it’s getting too close for comfort.

I might have to try a similar tactic at the next Obama event I attend. That is, if they don’t figure out I’m a Republican, first

You’ll never pull it off, S.T. As soon as you don’t swoon like a 12 year old girl, babble incoherently like an idiot, and when you start quoting facts and truth in your arguments, they’ll know right away you’re not a democrat.

Obama’s trying to draw a distinction between himself and Bill Clinton, who as we all know was drawn to BLUE dresses…

It reminded me of the ridiculous moment at the February Burberry show in Milan when my colleague Dan and I spent so much time schmoozing and ignoring the warning signs that we got caught between the aisles

Do these people actually think that this sort of stuff impresses us?? Hell, I would rather gaze a the latest John Deere tractor than see this woman dressed in red. I would definately rather look at a 2008 Shelby Mustang or a 2009 Challenger, and I am a single male. This is the exact sort of ridiculous behavior that is going to turn the common folk away from BO, and thank you God this woman wrote about her idol worship, even if it does make one queasy.

I squeezed up front, but Obama was moving quickly and just passed me by. Then, in a moment of divine intervention, he saw me, clad in my red stop-sign of a dress, back-tracked ever so slightly in his procession, grabbed my hand, and gave that brilliant smile of his.

Does this mean BO is lusting in his heart?? – Lorica

Could it be that Obama is simply drawn to that which is Red?

I would assume a red dress with a Che stencil would get him quicker.

“Divine intervention.”

This is beyond parody.

“Disciple-like devotion”.

Folks, you cannot make stuff like this up. No one would believe it.

Waiting for the black beret to go along with the red dress. Maybe she could give Monica a ring….

I have thrown myself into a new world—one in which fluffy chatter and frivolous praise are replaced by a get-to-the-point directness and disciple-like devotion.

And yet this entire piece is fluffy and frivolous…

“It’s intoxicating.”

Yep, and just wait for the hangover

I remember acting like that at a U2 concert once–I loved Bono but I wouldn’t have voted for him. What’s weird and scary about that piece is that so many people are acting the same way–rationality is slipping away–a large portion of the population is turning into some kind of pod people

Do you suppose that slowly before November we will all succumb to Obama madness? Just like in Invasion of the Body Snatchers–one by one we are taken over and become Obamafied
