In the eyes of his followers? Mr. Fu says followers, because he has not seen any clear indication that anything Obama could do would disqualify him in their eyes. Bill Clinton enjoyed this kind of assumed infallibility from the Left. It is even more apparent in Obama’s movement.
One difference of note, conservative, restorative, and generally right of center people tend to want to hold people accountable, no matter what their position. There were Republicans that wanted Nixon investigated. Republicans like Duke Cunningham were not endlessly propped up by those who in general would support them. No Leftists do not hold their own to any standard other than loyalty to The Party.
For example, the Patriot Act. Many rightists are / were concerned about this powers included in this, as were many Leftists. But if this had been proposed by Bill Clinton, and indeed, similar items were, there would be little opposition from the Left.
So what would it take for Obama to be held accountable by the Left, including the media. Certainly not his participation in torpedoing our economy. Or his outright lies. There is a danger in this lack of accountability. The Left will defend him up until the point that he starts cutting their throats, and maybe even beyond that. This cult of personality serves no one, not even Obama. Not that he, or the Left, will ever see that.
