American Idol: Stevie Wonder and Barack Obama

Two nights in a row on American Idol, Barack Obama was getting some love.

Last night, after listening to the judges critique her performance, Lil Rounds said, "Obama!"

Tonight, Stevie Wonder was performing a medley when he shouted, "I love you, Barack Obama!"

Enough with the political endorsements.

American Idol is my escape from politics. This Obama stuff is getting annoying.

Please, no politics.

Also, at the top of the show, Simon Cowell clarified comments he made on the Tonight Show earlier this week.



Of course, Simon was joking about being too busy to have dinner with Obama.

"IT WAS A JOKE," Simon said.

Far left loons love, love, love their god. They hang on each and every word the "one" says. Hoping to hear more about change. But others in the vast middle are beginning to see the true face of, what I can only call evil. This fool, this mad man is a modern day Hitler, who will do anything to consolidate more and more power. He will not be satisfied with just being president, but will try to become a dictator for life. He is a real danger that must, I repeat must be stopped.

RR, come on. Are you for real?

Barack Obama is not a modern day Hitler.

Good grief. I just wish American Idol would be apolitical and keep away from anything divisive.

Stevie Wonder is an Obama fan. That's no surprise to me. I just don't think Idol should be used as a political platform.

The only comparison between Obama and Hitler that could be made is the blind worship bestowed upon him by his followers. Just like the parade of nuts in Oakland this week, where the killer of four cops was being declared a hero, these people will absolve him of any mistakes. If he launched a nuclear attack on Moscow for no reason, these people would say that he must have had a very good excuse. Never in my life have I see t-shirts made featuring a portrait of the entire "first family", but yet, it seems to be the latest fashion craze of certain members of our society...

There are parallels, like the blind worship of a savior and the willingness to follow blindly.

I think that what Obama is doing to the country is scary, an unprecedented power grab. As exhibited in the AIG bonus mess, Obama is willing to shred the Constitution.

That said, he's not as dangerous as Hitler or willing to do anything. He would never sign off on some sort of Final Solution program.

I strongly objected to the Democrats and the Left wingnuts referring to President Bush as Hitler.

I'll do the same whenever someone calls Obama Hitler.
