Is Barack Obama the Messiah?

that is absolutely disgusting. In the interest of full disclosure I support Hillary, but that has nothing to do with the fact I find this story and especially the title to be offensive and wrong. To compare any candidate to Jesus Christ is just wrong. He most certainly is not the Messiah and this kind of behavior will only ultimately hurt him. How big of an ego must he have to compare him self to the saviour of mankind.

Friends:Not since the days of Truman, have we faced a more difficult and turbulent time in our history.We are in two wars,one which is justified and the other not, there are fanatical terrorists who are out to destroy our dream, our borders are insecure, the economy is in a shambles,the Chinese and the Arabs are bailing out our corporate giants,the dollar is so worthless that middle class Americans such as me can’t afford to travel abroad,our people are losing their biggest asset which is their home, we have a health care crisis which is on the verge of collapse, the number of uninsured or underinsured Americans are about 50 percent of the population, we are beholden to the oil states and the sheiks, and our environment is falling apart. We have to think carefully about whom we elect as our next president.We should not be carried away by our hearts and use our minds at this crucial juncture.For me, there is only one candidate who can deal with our multitude of problems and that is Hillary. She is a strong and courageous woman who has withstood assaults on personality, character, family, sex, name it whatever.She has a track record for strong work ethic and over the past 8 years in the senate, she has shown that she can work across party lines to negotiate and achieve a consensus. To those who believe that a single person can bring about change that is foolhardy.Our forefathers have created a great system of pride for all of us with the three arms of the government which bring about the checks and balances which protect all of us.Hillary has been at the forefront in the battle for civic rights, children’s and women’s rights, abused children and women, families (“It takes a Village”) and health care.You can blame her for all you want,but she battled to keep her family intact after the Monica scandal.

Jake-
Seriously, a man of your background and journalistic integrity should know better than to publicize this garbage. Obama has never compared HIMSELF to Jesus, this is coming from bloggers and is very unethical the way it is portrayed. I am not supporting him at this time, but I will no longer be reading your blogs.
Please draw a line between interesting notes, and simply promoting the talking points of other campaigns. Absolutely disgusting.

Yes, Barack is the Messiah and Hillary is our Virgin Mary. Mother of the Messiah and it’s time to have Barack clean up his room, while Hillary runs the country.

Anyone who thinks Obama is the Christ, Don’t know Christ, politics or Obama. To evan say such a thing in jest is a sin to our Lord and offensive to all true Christians. As Christians we will not kill or mame the sinners. Like what would happen if someone compared him to Mohamed. But it is offensive and as Christians we should pray for those who obviously don’t know Christ.

This is further proof of the insanity and extreme gullibility of Obama supporters.

From the linked website:
“Jody Klein of Centralia, Wash., about two hours-drive south of Seattle, was near tears as she recounted her Obama experience. At age 20, she’ll vote in a presidential election for the first time.
“There’s just this amazing excitement that’s here,” she said. “When he was talking about hope, it actually almost made me cry. Like it really made sense, like, for the first, like, whoa … how important a time this is for us. It was really exciting.”
LOLOLOL. We should count ourselves lucky that the “youth vote” generally craps itself out by the time we get to the general election. Like, whoa…
Does Obama understand how very offensive all this Messiah malarkey is to a good many voters (you know, like, the ones who actually show up to, you know, vote)?

What kind of journalism is this one?
Please do not keep us posted with kind of stuff. What do you think we benefit from this kind of reporting? Awful!

Obama the Mess-Aya will only get 50% of the whit Democratic Party votes in the general election. This means the rest will stay home or vote McCain. Independant vote will not save our Mess-aya, he will be crusified.

Obama the Mess-Aya will only get 50% of the white Democratic Party votes in the general election. This means the rest will stay home or vote McCain. Independant vote will not save our Mess-aya, he will be crusified.

Messiah ? Oh puhleeezzzzzzzzzz – more like the anti-Christ setting himself up to destroy America from within !!1

I read the other day that highly educated people are easier to fool. Maybe that’s true? They see Ivy League schooling, a lawyer, a crisp suit and arrogance and they are falling down to support this guy. Seems to me these educated fools are the worst kind of sheep. We don’t need another self-righteous newbie, we’ve already had GWB for that. The reason people attack Hillary on these blogs and in the media is because she is the real thing, and the status quo really wants a man that they can manipulate. They don’t care that he’s black, or half black or whatever as long as they can pull his strings to promote their agenda. Change is coming people but it has nothing to do with BARAK HUSSEIN OBAMA. This country needs someone who has the white house experience and sensitivity to manuever us in the right direction,we’ve got a lot of problems to solve. Obama is just leading all these folks down the garden path and will leave them lost in the woods awaiting resuce.
HILLARY IS WHO WE NEED!

What else can you expect from a population that religious nutwings were able to fool for the past 8 years? The American people are well on their way to trade one incompetent Republican with Jesus in his heart in the White House for an incompetent, Democratic snake oil salesman.

MESIAH??? OH NO!!! IT’S THE AUDACITY OF DOPE!!!!!

Are Hillary supporters really this stupid?
Maybe Jake should type slower next time, but hopefully this will clear it up…HE’S NOT SAYING BARACK IS THE MESSIAH!!! BARACK OBAMA IS NOT SAYING HE’S THE MESSIAH. It’s a cheap pot shot at a candidate whose message is obviously more inspiring than Billary’s. Nothing more. Nothing less. You can put down your swords now.

Hitler was more inspirational than Obama, if you warent with him you were againt him.

No one is saying that Barak Hussein Obama is saying he’s the messiah. It’s the attitude of his followers who are acting like he is. At least us Hillary Clinton supporters recognize someone with experience and true commitment over that junior achievement wall street
phony Obama. Stupid? If you say so, we only see in others what find in ourselves.

Actually, I see this whole Obama craze among the youth as similar to the Beatles craze where girls were screaming and fainting about how wonderful the Beatles were. It’s the behavior of the older Obama supporters that’s more disturbing. That fact that many of them trail off into bashing Clinton as to their reasons for supporting Obama. Or make empty comments that have simply become catch phrases for the Obama campaign, “He is Change, We need Change, and We don’t want the same old establishment politics.” (This phrase in particular is actually humorous when stated by 18-22 year olds)… If they are the supposed educated group, they are proving that they are simply apt at taking notes and regurgitating what they were told; a guaranteed “A”, especially if you have egotistical professors. However, one would think educated adults would come up with their on independent comments about Obama’s philosophy or accomplishments as their reasons for supporting him. That seldom is the case.

This is going to end badly when this fraud loses. So many gullible people out there. scary

Oprah gave him “THE SECRET”, hahaha

Cynthia is right. Obama has already been set up to be defeated. He can not shake off the inexperience aspect of his candidacy. Having the young crowd as supporters, doesn’t help either. It is already too late. I think that everyone who knows political science and history; know this. I think Obama knows this. He seems much more angry than hopeful lately. The way he made it into the Senate is up for scrutiny as well. Obama’s stance against the war is completely invalid because he was NOT a US SENATOR. For a certain population of society, there is all this other fun/silly stuff you can bash him with. He is already doomed for the general and the Republicans want him in because the battle plan has been accomplished in much of the Primary. All of this messiah/cult aspect is damaging as well. In fact, it would be a lot of work in playing defense if he becomes the VP. The one overpowering force in that regard would be the numbers. Clinton supporters and Obama supporters could definitely outnumber the Republican attack machine, providing the Independents stay with the Dems. That part of the support is weak when the general hits. Nevertheless; there are a lot more Democrats than Republicans and if we are going to make an issue about Democratic delegates; it is going to be a war with the Republicans. Review the Al Gore race.

Am I losing my mind? The funniest thing that I have ever read was on here a little while age. Where did it go? The department of hope and change… blah, blah blah. It was hysterical. Where did it go?

Cynthia: I will post it again for your enjoyment, and please spread the fun.

A

Peter,
I’ve become a political news junkie. This was the funniest thing that I have heard during this whole election. Thanks, so much. I still want to know why it was there and now it’s not. That was weird.
Maybe the Messiah removed it.

Apparently Khaleel Ahmed who donated to Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.)’s campaign in 2004 is the same Khaleel Ahmed who was arrested in February 2007 with his cousin on terrorism charges.
Just google it, you will see it.

Cynthia,
Apparently he performs miracles, after all he is the Mesiah, the Annointed One by Oprah.

No just the false prophet!!!!!

Is the job of this blog to inform, or just to post controversial and inflammatory comments in order to draw out those of us in this society who can’t help but to spread vitriol and bitterness? I’m just curious, Jake.

This blog is getting as desperate as Billary’s campaign.

And as one veteran of Chicago black politics said to me wistfully: “He is a smart, talented and handsome person, but I am not sure which of those matters most to the American people.”
That is not what he really meant. He knew perfectly well that it was the camera’s power to make Obama shimmer and glow that makes him so important.
And yet a better person might look terrible and sound worse.
How long can the great democracies survive in the face of television’s ability to make some of us look like gods when we are not?
Those who now laud him will probably be flinging abuse at him within two years of his election, and heaven knows how he will be able to continue to be the good family man he is, or walk round to the Hyde Park Hair salon for a trim and a chat with Zariff.
By becoming President he will instantly cease to be what everyone wants him to be.
But by then, of course, it will be too late.

It may be helpful if before making comments about someone’s joke or someone’s non factual response one would do some research on this here great internet rather than babbling mindless response.
Obama is a normal human being like all of us. He did work hard to get where he is and I am sure he did not spemd most of his time on the computer in mindless pursuits.
Go out in to the world and make changes yourself in your commnunity.
A leader may help but to be part of the solution we must stop being part of the problem.The changes will come from us not the elected president, he will do his part,we must do our part. We must demand the changes after becoming educated about the cause we seek to fight for and laways remember the constitution must be defended in this days and Barack Obama was teaching constitutional law, he is the most qualified to protect our freedom.
vote vote vote

At least Mark Halperin is saying what needs to be said: “With the press – as always – ready to side with Obama…”

Bonjo,you got that RIGHT,OBAMA is the ANTI-CHRIST!!!

Just read what Obama said in New Hampshire campaign and find all of this scaring.Did’nt find any talk about policy, just like a minister adressing a crowd of people happy to hear about hope because they are so frustrated. Remind me of Mao adressing crowds that cried and got hysterical.

The messiah? This guy is insane.

what he is? the cool one. the new and improved one. he’s got a great brand, hope, and he’s selling it well.
what she is? herself. she isn’t jfk, mlk, regan, james dean, susan b. anthony, or any other famous person here now or before. just herself. we always want to say, ohh there now is the next clint eastwood, paul newman, lucille ball, or whoever. but usually real people only come around once. however this election goes, hillary will go down in history as a true pioneer in this race for president. long after all the clinton haters are gone, little girls will study about hillary in their history books and be inspired and some will probably hope to be the next hillary.

This guy is a “fake”.
Read his books and you will get the real picture of where he stands.
Clinton 08

Well one would think so if they listen to the media. Obama can do no wrong.
Really are we so stupid to be lead down the path of great speeches. Obama is a candidate of little substance. We need less talk and more action.
I find it odd that a chaotic caucus where little is checked will determine who the candidate will be. Hillary Clinton should be the next president – she has earned the title

I’m an independent voter and I have not made up my mind yet. However, I do have concerns about how people, Democrat’s in particular, are looking at the candidates.
The whole country knows the negatives about Hillary Clinton. What about Obama’s negatives? I suggest people really take a hard look at his background – http://www.unfilteredopinion.com
I’m not saying not to vote for Obama. I’m just saying read every thing you can about him and then make your decision. Don’t just read his book and go to his web site. Check out the other stuff. Is it true? I don’t know, but it doesn’t hurt to ask.
For example:
1) I have no problem with some one going to his church (www.tucc.org). But I do have a problem with a person running for President attending a church that bills itself as “unashamedly black” with a “non-negotiable commitment to Africa”.
Obama supporter or not, you have to admit that if that was a White candidate attending a church that was “unashamedly white” it would be all over the news.
2) His church’s magazine gives a Lifetime Achievement Award to the racist Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam. Obama says he doesn’t agree with the award, but why would you stay at a church that gives the award. By staying, you are basically sanctioning their decision. If he “really” did not like it, trust me the church would not have given the award.
3) What is the extent of Obama’s relationship with Farrakhan. A friend pointed out to me that the Illinois State Senate seat that Obama held covered the Hyde Park neighborhood in Chicago. This neighborhood is dominated by Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam. NO ONE wins that State Senate seat with out the blessing of Farrakhan.
4) Does he really have Nation of Islam members on his Senate and campaign staff. I would have a problem wih that.
5) How is Obama about change? Doesn’t every politician running for office say that? If Obama is so much about “change”, why is his top campaign staff and advisors the same old Washington insiders from previous Democratic regimes?
All of the candidates have flaws, some more than others. I’m just asking you to read all you can about the candidates before you vote for them. Do not vote for Obama because he inspires you. Vote for Obama because he has the right plan with the right details to get the job done. Inspiration alone, is not going to get a darn thing passed with the 435 members of Congress. That’s trench warfare.
I guess I should identify myself as an African-American since this campaign is shaping up to be about race also.
Why do you think Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan and the others have been so quiet and not seen on TV as much? Some White people hate them so much and they don’t want Obama to get painted with that brush.

If you were looking to fill an executive position, would you hire the candidate with excellent interviewing skills but no record of achievement?

Who you trying to fool, Obama’s going to be elected into the oval office and that will usher in the downfall and total destruction of the USA..
not all at once but a little at a time.
Wait and see, everything is already determined.
