Obama backlash begins

Posted in:

Illinois
Obama

It had to happen sooner or later. Frankly, I’m getting kinda sick of the hype myself. He hasn’t even made a vote yet and he’s still treated as the Second Coming.

Okay Illinoisians, brace yourselves. Chicagoist is getting just a little sick of Barack Obama, or at least the media’s portrayal of him.

Click through for the whole thing. Pretty funny.

I thought that Lynn Sweet was leading the Obama backlash.

Do not fear, Senator Obama, Exalted One. Rev. Eric Zorn is rushing to your rescue by flailing against Lynn Sweet’s temerity to actually raise a question about your Worship. Praise be to Obama the Magnificent, and His faithful Priest Zorn…(shuffling away backward with my unworthy eyes to the ground)
