EDITORIAL: Obama greater than Jesus

czetheday /////// So Bush was, or acted stupid, agreed. But why would this intelligent man, Obama, then continue all of the ignorant things Bush did if he was a good president?

Ah, mojojuju, but you are putting words in my mouth (keyboard) that I did not say. I never said that Obama was a genius. I said that the allegation that he was a moron was ludicrous given not only his academic achievements but also his teaching career.

Bush was a "legacy" admission. In other words, if his application was given a letter grade of "C" when it was received, it would be bumped up to a "B" due to the fact that he followed his father. Furthermore, the selectivity at Yale was MIUCH less competitive in his day than it was by the time Obama was admitted.

The admissions criteria for Obama to get into Columbia were extremely demanding...but a few "morons" doubtless slip through at the undergraduate level. That simply does not happen in the transition from undergrad to Harvard Law. Only the best of the best students make that leap. Then he made Law Review...which only the best law students achieve. But THEN he taught at one of the ten best law schools in the country. Mine was ranked 18th, and I never met a single law professor in three years who could even REMOTELY be called "moronic."

As to the allegations that he was a salesperson and all the rest...fine, whatever...but none of that has anything to do with my post. I was simply refuting the "moronic" tag, not suggesting that he was a genius or a wonderful president (though he most certainly is). On that latter point, I LOVE all the horseshit about how all he does is make speeches. I have lived through nine presidencies thus far...that is all any of them did in public. Some, like the two Bushes, were just really, really, bad at it.

The decision-making and policy analysis is always done out of the public eye. I guess the idiots who make such allegations want to see him dig a ditch or something (I am not referring to you with this statement, BTW)

LOL, Halo: spoken by a true Obamite. I HOPE his CHANGE works for you.

02 Wait until i post the full interview with attorney and his wife. No doubt we're behind it and if you enact terrorism on your own people and then try to use it to take civil liberties, you might be a treason.http://current.com/items/91797141_youtube-evidence-clearly-indicates-staged-atta...

I, personally, liked everything Rev. Wright had to see. It seems Obama wasn't listening to him. Rev. Wright hates him now as Obama denied Him more than three times. Would Jesus stage a false terror attack in Detroit on his own comrades? Somebody in Washington did.http://current.com/items/91797141_youtube-evidence-clearly-indicates-staged-atta...

Obama surely isn't the Messiah, but he is an extremely intelligent man...Numerous people accuse Blacks of supporting Obama because he is Black, and that is a very ignorant assumption..Obama is biracial...He is half White and half Black...I have never heard anyone accuse his supporters of supporting him because of his White bloodline...Most White politicians are supported only, because of the Color of their skin...America is governed by many inept politicians, voted into office not because of their qualifications, but because of their race....You people make stupid statements, the majority of Black voters always vote for the Democratic candidate for president...Most Blacks are from the working class, and they know that the Republican Party is anti labor and pro Big Business....When Obama supporters voted him into office, they knew that he was not the Messiah, but he was .a competent, hard working politician...The majority of Obama's supporters are White...Most of America's debt was left behind by George Bush...

yeah, 02, that would be great, always did like the country better anyway.

SamuraiDave said: "HE wants US to fail so that he can lead the U.N. in a World Government. Documented fact." HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! Sorry it's just hard to take some of the stuff here seriously////Research Dave, research and you can confirm that.

Obama is evil because he's black.
Obama is a muslim terrorist.
Obama hates freedom, love, existence, and beer.
Obama hates white people.
Obama is a communist socialist nazi dictator.
Obama is related to Saddam Hussein.
Obama eats small children.
Obama scares me because I'm a racist.

wow. someone played the "so-and-so died for your rights" card.
that's tired and old.
we understand how shitty it is that people are sacrificed for the motives of our government to the military, but it doesn't make it right.

we are all human beings, allowed to say and do what we want. there is no reason to talk like you do toward someone because your relative died in a war.

the fact is, nobody should have to die in any war. war shouldn't ever happen. it's a primitive act of man that should have died long ago.

for those that have family members that were needlessly killed in war, do you still support the military and aims of our government after their death? i'm interested in knowing.

since this post is more about jesus and Obama, maybe we should keep it that way?

i'm sorry misticdog44, for your loss. it was needless. he, along with the many innocent women and children in the countries that we've occupied in the past several years, never needed to die.

14 trillion by January 2010,That's what they have done.Are you really that stupid? To Call Obama A Hero makes me sick.My brother Died Spilling his blood so ass holes like you can speak your trash.So Take your traitor Obama and go find your N.W.O.else where.

good point. Obama is Jesus.

only better!

plus, he has the whole black thing going for him. perhaps we should have a vote:

Who would like to see Jesus' black skin make a comeback?

kidding. i don't want to take away from the original thread's premise.

Mostly Because He is a Horses ass.DAM REV WRIGHT and all like him

You Do know why Rev. Wright said goddamn America, right?

I am a 47 year old black man from Anchorage Alaska. When Obama became President I and everyone I knew had a real sense of pride. We were finally represented. Finally a voice to be herd. Well It is 4am on Dec.30 2009 and I can’t sleep. I guess I just wanted to tell the world how ashamed I am for supporting Obama. It is not just me. Everyone I know is ashamed because Obama represents our race. I am so so very sorry. I call out to every black person in all of the country and the world to turn our collective backs on this heretic. He must be removed from office and any other public office. No matter what he must be removed!. Never again can we let the color of our skin blind us so badly from the truth.

Wow, I agree with ibrake4rappers again, guess you're not so bad after all, lol. Thumbs up on that one 'brake.

Nettle we want his policies to fail because their axe backwards and fascist. The bailout was meant to fail by design. HE wants US to fail so that he can lead the U.N. in a World Government. Documented fact.

Lurkistan said: Well at least Obama is for sure a real person, so he's got that going for him. ///// Are you sure of that nobody knows if he's Barry Soetoro or Barack Obama and nobody knows for sure where he was born.

Well at least Obama is for sure a real person, so he's got that going for him.

Wow. Interesting allegations being thrown around on this strange little piece. Obama's Presidency is one of many words and few deeds. You mean like compared to the Bush or Clinton Presidencies? Well, they were President for 8 years each. Obama is STILL a few weeks shy of one year. He may or may not wind up being remembered as an average President...but he hasn't even served 25% of one term yet.

And the allegation that he is a "moron" is just ludicrous. I can understand arguments that he is ineffective or inexperienced or even misguided, but saying that he is a moron after graduating from Columbia undergrad, Harvard grad and teaching at the U of Chicago is just inaccurate.

There are quite a few areas in which I think the Obama Administration has failed thus far. That is what I expected, since every administration since I was born (Kennedy) has failed in a (large) number of areas. Some failures (Nixon) were just more spectacular than others.

But Americans wouldn't want Jesus to be President anyway (heck, I am persuaded that if Jesus appeared among us again anonymously, he would probably be crucified even more quickly now than he was in the Bible stories)...what with preaching all that love thy neighbor crap...

That is assuming that Obama is a Christian...Which I don't believe he is...
Obama should realize and remember, only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.

Who is this Jesus person, and is he in the country legally?

Obama is definitely more attractive without hair, just sayin'.

Yes, he does think he's greater, just like Jesus told us the name of the Anti-Christ and Nostradamus told us he'd be a dark man and Benjamin Creme says he's the Maitreya. All hail Obama and then Burn Baby Burn. The greatest deceiver in History. The Great Deceiver. We all know where this goes from now, but, in the end, he loses. He will try, yes, he will try. Eyes wide shut.

Oh my God, I just ate, excuse me for a minute, I have to go blow chunks all over my bathroom.

The article is rather dry and sarcastic and not the idolizing praise certain misinformed people here think it is. On one hand it's making fun of that fact that Obama's legacy is one of few deeds but many words which is actually much like Jesus while on the other hand mocking the strawman of Obama idolization that republicans have built in wanting to believe that Obama supporters see him as a god.

This strawman of Obama idolization is a bit of Republican damage control. they don't want another JFK except perhaps in the end result. JFK has an enduring legacy that even an affair with Marilyn Monroe can not besmirch. With Obama, the first black president at a time of crisis and after a very lackluster presidency, there was bound to be a lot of people being overly supportive of him and pinning their hopes on him. Another JFK legacy in the making. One way to deal with this is to not only attack Obama directly but to attack the support itself and make more level-headed supporters uncomfortable with being associated with the exaggerated/strawman of Obama-worshipping loonies.

They want to distort support for Obama into some kind of blind mindless following akin to those who followed Hitler and Mao. This may explain why some of the rightwingers keep calling him a Nazi Communist - two political ideologies that are incomparable except to those who don't really understand them.

This is ridiculous. If a cult pops up I'm leaving the country.

barack hussein obama, mmmmmmmm mmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmm

and according to Obama, 'caulk' is sexy. mmmmm mmmmmmmm mmmmmmm

Someone tell me what HOPE they have with this kook? (Obama)

Gag me. You've got to be kidding? Did anyone read that article? Health care "reform" hasn't even been approved or decided on yet they are touting it as an historical achievement - wait til the details come out in the final product - details NO ONE has read before they voted on it.

The bailouts? good lord. They're wrecking us and so will health care because it's going to be too expensive for ANYONE once the government sinks it's hand into it. Just like they "fixed" the credit card crisis - all they accomplished was putting stupid demands on the banks to notify of rate hikes and what'd we all get? Triple rates. Thanks dems. I used to enjoy very low rates, but since Obama's credit reform, the rates have tripled. Guess what's gonna happen with health care premiums when they "reform" the system?

Well, as far as the author not giving Jesus the glory for his miracles (too many to be printed in one small book), I'd venture to say God is going to show this blasphemer author just what He is all about. I wouldn't want to be in his shoes on judgement day.

Maybe if we time traveled three or four thousand years, we'd find talking dog colonies praying at a throne of the "Obam" a big phallic-shaped stone column. They never heard of humans.

In comparison to Republican presidents like Bush and Regan, Obama comes off looking like the Messiah....It will take the Messiah and all of the super heros, to repair the destruction caused by these inept presidents..Their policies are the direct cause of our global crisis.....Jesus is the one and only " Messiah ", however Obama is a Savior compared to the rest........

I love how people try to convince themselves that Obama is some kind of super radical.. he's not even a Liberal. Some of you criticize him because you think he's some kind of Socialist/Fascist/Communist/Boogie Monster. He's a corporate centrist, and the only kind of Socialism he believes is Corporate Socialism. Hence the bailouts.

I don't know where that whole Obama/Messiah thing came from. I've never known anyone who regarded Obama as some kind of Messiah. That doesn't mean there aren't Obama zealots though. These are usually knob jockeys of the Democratic Party, the ones that applaud anything the Democratic party does. They're just as bad Republican knob jockeys. A bunch of partisan assholes.

Steve Jobs is my Messiah! =) His second coming has been glorious so far.

But Obama doesn't have any animosity towards the super rich........ He loves them.....

The point of the article seems to be that Jesus really wasn’t that great. If so, what’s the point of comparing President Obama or anyone else to Him?

If Jesus was just some guy that told stories a couple of thousand years ago then every Nobel Prize winner, Medal of Honor recipient or Academy Award winner is greater than Jesus.

If Jesus wasn’t that great then what is the author’s point in comparing anyone to Him at all? This is the “journalistic” equivalent of running naked across a baseball field. Just trying to get shock attention and cause a “scandal.”

this is retarded i voted for Obama and im a democrat i vote seculer not by any religious ideology this is as bad as the stupid crap bush had his supporters believing
Obama is our president and that is all i don't want religion anywhere near my elected officials i don't know what stupider that bush convinced his supporters he was divinely chosen by god or that Obama supporters just assumed that Obama was with out him saying anything
i support Obama as a strong and rational leader who looks to be informed on reality not ideology this country needs to get off religions nuts its sad to see this kind of thing still prevalent in our politics especially in dems come on liberals lets keep our heads here in reality

Obama is no messiah; in fact he is a pretty ineffectual President and World Leader. I can’t explain or even begin to understand America’s fascination with Obama. Granted he inherited a litany of problems from the previous distractions but now its time for Obama to live up to his campaign slogans and empty promises to the American people. Besides, neither Jesus or Obama pay my bills.

The guy who wrote it is a journalist from Denmark, writing for a European audience based in Denmark.

It is neither Republican nor Democratic in origin. It is funny, and curious, and I thought I would share.

Enjoy!

Ha Ha, Is this an Onion article?

Obama vs Mao

Who will be more ruthless in their cultural revolutions?

LOL that's one way to piss off the dumbass Republicans! LOL OH! & Maybe a few jesus freaks too!!! LOL Brilliant!!! Obama might just be the best leader America will ever get,but hell!!! To be rather honest even Jesus wasn't so perfect!!! & another thing Jesus was NOT white!!!

Oh, lulz!

That's not really saying much since as John Lennon said "We're more popular than Jesus now; I don't know which will go first — rock and roll or Christianity. Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for"

So it's not that much competition because while Obama might be greater than Jesus, there is no way that Obama is more popular than the Beatles

Lol @ Republicans who actually think Obama is worshiped as some sort of deity. He's an elected official. A puppet of an elected official, on the strings of corporate masters. Will those lunkheads ever learn?
