Hero worship

Journalists rose up and clapped President Obama after his News Conference in London.Women in France were so Happy to reach and touch him. One lucky woman even got a chance to kiss his cheek.Europeans are thrilled that Mr.Obama is American President.God! It looks like Messiah has come and all our earthly problems would be solved soon.Would it be wonderful if he is the President of Europe! Four years ago, he was an unknown state Senator in Illinois,before that he was a community organizer in Chicago.Then he became a Senator,not any legislative achivements because he was on the road all the time,after becoming Senator,running for Presidency. He is a great communicator. He did not run anything and hope he would learn to be a reasonably good executive and help America get out of this economic mess we are in.But hero worshipping like God is silly,ridiculous and stupid.

"Brit masses mourn working-class princess" is a headline in one of the New York news papers referring to Jade Goody, a foul mouthed, brash and uneducated woman that became famous after appearing in a reality show "Big Brother" and for her racist remarks to actress Shilpa Shetty. I am sorry she got cancer,died at an early age ,leaving two young kids.It is sad. But making it as mass national mourning!!!!!! Goodness Gracious!
