He never said Obama was God--he said he was like God in that Obama is taking a more worldly approach to his administration as compared to Reagan or Bush. America is not alone in the world and Obama portrays that in his administration. He is not Reagan and Bush (republican) protectionism, and understands that America must work together with the world--not alienate the world.

Scooty, while I agree that this appears to come from left field it was part of a broader conversation from FandF.
You see Crow denied that any left wingers were refering to Obama as a god.Well here you have two left wing news sources in MSNBC and Newsweek saying that Obama"hes sort of a god" It is really pathetic.
As far as damage control for Thomas, nice try.He said what he said.It wasn't inaccurate to quote it back at them.Inaccurate would be to say Sarah Palin said she"could see Russia from her house" which anyone with a brain knows was Tina Fey.
I think even left wingers such as yourself would be worried about the medias love affair with Obama.Wake up.

What he's saying is that Obama isn't like Reagan in that he's only looking after America; Obama's looking at working with everyone. He's realizing that America isn't the only country on the map and--shock of shocks!--we might maybe just need to work with different countries and maybe not be looked at as assholes that invade other countries for no reason.
It's also nice to see Sean Hannity's "fair & balanced" take on this matter. As usual, Hannity's head is up his ass and he's making smart, decent Republicans look bad. Keep up the good work, Sean!

Thanks for bit of context, John; I don't tend to read the ForF's so I missed it.

Hey John,
Nice double standard, eh?
When I say Palin said stuff like "I can see Russia from my house," you say I'm plain wrong b/c it's not Palin. It didn't matter to you then that essentially, the concept was the same.
Now suddenly, he said what he said and intent doesn't matter?
Typical.

John illustrates the fundamental reason why Republicans (and there WTF-ideology) should stay away from positions of power. Unless you want to bring about our exctiniction, you would vote for someone with a functional brain.

@John: Matthews isn't agreeing with the idea that Obama is god. He's agreeing with the idea that Obama is looking at things from a non-isolationist point of view.
He's agreeing with the analogy's point, not the literal contest. It's pretty clear on both fronts.

I disagree with Thomas. Obama is not like a God, he is God. Merely using a simile is blasphemous. BOW DOWN, GOP SINNERS.
