Man charged with threatening Obama on website
Reuters ^ | Jan. 16 2009 | Reuters

Authorities on Friday arrested a U.S. man on suspicion of threatening to kill President-elect Barack Obama based on statements he posted on a website about UFOs and aliens, the Justice Department said.

Steven Joseph Christopher, in three postings to www.alien-earth.org, said he planned to assassinate Obama in Washington "as a sacrificial lamb," the department said in a statement.

"It's really nothing personal about the man. He speaks well ... . But I know it's for the country's own good that I do this," Christopher reportedly wrote.

Frankly, the guy sounds like the stereotypical Obama supporter: Delusional, anti-Semitic, violence-prone, assigns Obama a messianic role, and thick as a brick.

I dont want Obama to be made in to a JFK. I would hate to hear about for the next 30 years and the liberals saying oh things would be better if he had 8 years.

I suppose that is a good "long term" reason...

However, just consider the presidential line of succession, and you'll immediately see that keeping obammer alive and in the pink of health is in our best interests (never thought that would be in print!)

He should be in the black of health.

I hope Hussein doesn’t follow in the footsteps of Lincoln, JFK and MLK.....We’d get another “holiday” and plates to hang on the wall.

And yet he mimics Lincoln...almost inviting the kooks to take a shot...Is he trying to martyr himself for anarchy?

You have hit the proverbial nail with precision. I have no high hopes for this administration. I truly hope that remembering to love the country and not the government will get us through.

Yeah, well I never thought I’d say I wish Hillary Clinton were President either, so it’s a year of firsts.

You’re correct. Obama must not have made him happy on that particular day. He should have beamed up!

Hell I wish McCain was POTUS and that's how desperate I am.

Which agency is he with? FBI? BATF?

Seriously this has all the makings of a false flag or agent provocateur setup.

You mean obammer in prison, not yourself, right?

I don't see it happening. No dem congress is going to impeach, much less convict the Chosen One.

And...in 2010, I surely don't see any decent challengers to dem congress seats by the republicans.

And...if he moves very swiftly...obammer and his holy cohhorts could probably overturn the "two term president" limit. Surely, during this time of euphoria, no one would fight it...and if any did, the "powerless" MSM would crush them.

The last thing we need is martyrdom for Zero. The libtards would spend the rest of their days waiting for his return.

The Left pushed the lie that George HW Bush “arranged” the release of the hostages in Iran to see that Carter was defeated.

Yes, there were people who wanted another 4 years of President Carter even AFTER 8 years of Ronald Reagan.

They cling to their mythologies.

And there were AUTHORS and FILMMAKERS who wrote about the assassination of GW Bush and the media was “shocked” that there was any outrage. The reports of the numerous death threats President Bush received (including 2 on air remarks by Air America host Randi Rhodes) did not generate headlines.

The Democrat terrorists who plotted to firebomb the RNC convention in 2008, no national ink.

It is wrong for anyone to make a death threat against our president. The media is selective in reporting who has been threatened. Such headlines are propaganda designed to demonize those who might criticize. There is a large chasm between criticisim and threats (real or imagined). The media is lumping everyone together. As they did after the OKC bombing when those who listened to talk radio were not only marginalized but branded as the cause of that domestic terrorist action.

Amen....absolutely no good choice this time around.

My choice would have been a Duncan Hunter or McClintock type, but we're told they don't have the celebrity appeal to get elected.

We're in deep doodoo as a nation for a while I'm afraid.
