If this is the Messiah, nobody is standing up for the Hallelujah Chorus any more.

The most striking aspect of it was the tone of mockery, epitomised by Mason Weaver’s brilliant soundbite satirising Obama’s dependence on a teleprompter. The prevailing tone of anti-Obama public expression is becoming more relaxed, because his absurd projects are now recognised as a house of cards. Obama set himself the task of turning America into a socialist state: he should have started with a less ambitious project, such as pushing water uphill or transmuting base metals into gold.

Barack Obama is in danger of becoming a figure of fun. His opponents are beginning to hate him less and laugh at him more. That is the most deadly fate that can overtake any politician. If there is one phenomenon that should strike blind terror into White House spin doctors it is the sound of derisive laughter. No political career can survive that.

“Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand.”
......Mark Twain
