It's creepy to me because it makes Obama a Roman Emperor and not an American President. The West hasn't worshiped its rulers since the last of the Pagan Emperors died. Reviving the custom *now* isn't particularly advisable from a political, religious, or PR standpoint. And it's even worse when the object of worship is a picture of the man who first dug the hole.....
