the apostle Peter was crucified upside down

Yes, but that was because Peter did not consider himself worthy of being killed the same way as Jesus.

“On his trip to Cambodia, a country he claimed didn’t deserve a visit due to its strongman government, first lady Bun Rany greeted Obama with a traditional “sampeah” pressed-hands greeting reserved for servants, a little dig that was probably lost on him but not to Asians.”

That was flipping the bird to the Catholic Church hierarchy (just as he tends to do in certain televised speeches)

Huh??? Who does he think he is? The pope?

No, just another shining example of how to him, nothing is sacred, except his own mutilated sense of self-esteem. There's really nothing of worth inside the dank recesses of his soul. He reminds me of Matthew 23:27

"Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of dead men's bones and everything unclean."

Doofus or Dufus is suitable. Besides choosing between evil or stupid, I would offer “classless”, which allows for plenty of both.

He did the same thing last year, he really thinks he’s the messiah.

Obummer is guilty of a hate crime; ergo impeachable and for trial at the Hague- under his own U.N. position.

UNITED NATIONS - Muslim foreign ministers called Friday for laws against incitement to "religious hatred" as they condemned an American-made film mocking Islam that sparked deadly protests.

UNITED NATIONS - Catholic foreign ministers called Friday for laws against incitement to "religious hatred" as they condemned an American-president mocking Christianity sparked no deadly protests.

It`s under suspicion as being a hate crime. Religious hate crime is any incident perceived to be on the ground of religion or faith by the victim or any other person. Report any hate crime to us as soon as it becomes evident.

The "time has come to establish denigration of all religions and their followers as a hate crime. We have to take swift measures," the PM of Turkey added. Happy Thanksgiving!
