Although it is now digital, Newsweek celebrated President Obama's upcoming inauguration with a "cover" that calls the event "the second coming," an apparent reference to the return of Jesus Christ, The Blaze reported Friday.
A post at Twitchy called the cover "creepy," while The Blaze described it as "controversial" and questionable.
The cover highlights an article by former editor Evan Thomas, who once compared Obama to God.
Well, we were the good guys in 1984, it felt that way. It hasn't felt that way in recent years. So Obamas had, really, a different task We're seen too often as the bad guys. And he he has a very different job from Reagan was all about America, and you talked about it. Obama is we are above that now. We're not just parochial, we're not just chauvinistic, we're not just provincial. We stand for something I mean in a way Obamas standing above the country, above above the world, hes sort of God," he told Chris Matthews in 2009.
This is not the first time Newsweek has used such a theme when portraying Obama.

Riding a donkey, eh? Except with Obama being Bathhouse Barry, it is oftentimes someone riding his ass.
Are you kidding, are all those actual covers?
Talk about your timing.
