On my drive in, listening to conservative talk radio, they were talking about this new phrase, showing up on bumper stickers and t-shirts, and which seems to be all the rave among Lefties.

I’m not ridiculing cafepress.com. They are capitalist in the truest sense of the word, selling T-shirts and Bumper Stickers for both parties. (They have some great McCain/Palin stuff) – but I find the phrase absolutely disgusting, and wonder what sick and twisted mind first thought of that phrase. Sounds like Ed Schultz of AirAmerica to me. I actually hope the lefties do buy this shirt or bumper sticker. I think the average American even those to the left of center, would be very turned off by the comment and it would do Obama no favors at all.

Senator Obama, I serve Jesus Christ. I know Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is a friend of mine. Senator, you’re no Jesus Christ.

Kind of reminds me of Whoopi who said Palin and republicans are scary because they kind of remind her of Nazis.

I guess Whoopi doesn’t know Hitler had babies with Down Syndrome killed, as Liberals would.

Palin gave life to a Down Syndrome baby and calls him perfect.

The link between Obama and godhood is complete. Now instead of merely thinking it, they are publicly proclaiming it.

Yes, please, let us have this discussion.

If Jesus was a “community organizer”, what “community” did he “organized” and by what beliefs and behavior can we tell those people from others?

Let me count the ways, starting with the Ten Commandments.

For those who are only familiar with them as a icon of what the followers of Jesus want to “impose” on others, they can be found in Exodus chapter 20, which is towards the very front of most Bibles.

The Ten offer a wonderfullt succinct summary of the values taught by Jesus. Indeed, he made direct reference to them in his sayings. But with respect to the current debate, we can look at three of the ten, the ones that forbid LIES, COVETING AND THEFT.

Again, as the things that Jesus said that touch on the current election, the Bible says that people who love and teach lies cannot inherit eternal life. That is found in the last chapter of the last book, in Revelation 22:15.

Right there, we can be relieved to know that some day, everyone we now see who loves and practices lies, even if it is for a purpose they think is good, will not be around much longer.

Jesus says in Revelation chapter 2 and 3 that one of the ways you will know of his followers is that they “cannot tolerate evil”, they “persist steadfastly”, they “cling to my name”, they have “love, faith, service and steadfast endurance”.

This does not sound at all like a Chicago neighborhood receiving handouts from government.

Let’s see now...

Obama compares himself to the Messiah, but he isn’t.

That’s a bit like the Antichrist, isn’t it? And the Beast, too — isn’t the Beast and the Antichrist on the same side?

Right. Now for the False Prophet... could it be AlGore?

Spooky stuff!

Pilate was indeed the governor. But it was the chief priests of the Jews that were the community organizers, as Mark 15:11 reminds us:

 9 "Do you want me to release to you the king of the Jews?"
 asked Pilate, 10 knowing it was out of envy that the chief 
 priests had handed Jesus over to him. 11 But the chief 
 priests stirred up the crowd to have Pilate release 
 Barabbas instead.

So Barack == Jesus.

That's going to go over well.

Adolf Hitler was a community organizer-his beer hall putsch was an example of his “community organizing”.

"Jesus was a Community Organizer, Pontius Pilate was a Governor"

This brings to mind California Governor Pat Brown's statement, in apparent reference to to his opponent for re-election, actor Ronald Reagan, that "it was an actor who shot Lincoln."

Jesus suffered for His people
Pilate listened to the chanting crowd

Jesus took a stand on tough issues
Pilate voted “present” (washed his hands of them)

Jesus was the Son of God, he wasn't in any political party or category. He was unique and stood alone.

Don Corleone was a "Community Organizer".

Seriously, this is fantastic! We’ve got the Obama nutbags calling Palin the person who killed Christ.

Are you kidding me? How much more could they do to help us win over evangelicals and religious conservatives?

Suddenly, all governors are Pontius Pilate?? Sebelius? Napolitano? Schweitzer? Blagojavich? (okay, I’d agree with you on those....but)

They are so insanely off their rocker that they are accusing Sarah Palin of being anti-Christ. That ain’t gonna play in those rural and suburban counties in PA, OH and MI. The hippie scum really stuck their foot in it this time.

Lenin was a community organizer. Reagan was a governor.

Saddam Hussien was a community organizer as well. Looking at what the south side of Chicago looks like right now with all the murders and mayhem will tell you what Obama is "organizing" for.

Al Capone was a community organizer, and Jesus wouldn't like it.

"T-shirts, and Bumper Stickers with these words: "Jesus was a Community Organizer, Pontius Pilate was a Governor"

Yeah, but what these nincompoops fail to realize is that Jesus' 'community' was the entire world.

'Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father , and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost (Matthew 28:19).

If they're going to use our Lord's holy name as an analogy for their own "messiah", Obama, they might try actually reading the Bible before interpreting it.

A “community organizer” seeks to force a secular government to change, through public agitation.

Yeshua never as such a person.

He said to change the human heart and he had no interest in secular rule for himself or his followers.

A “community” may have “organized” around Yeshua, and according to his teaching, in the religious sense, but NEVER in the secular political sense.

Unlike the latest pretend messiah, when offered the keys to all the kingdoms on earth (secular rule), Yeshua refused, reminding Satan that His Kingdom is not of this earth. He did not seek secular power, for himself or for those who follow him - it is a fools errand.

What happened to this story on abc news? It was up earlier, and now I can’t find it anywhere. Google even tracks it to abcnews.go.com but there is no cache for it.

Two things:

Obama without a teleprompter speaks in tongues.

Obama supporters realize that every time Sarah speaks, she nails him.

Don’t you love it when the anti-God left tries to tell Christians who Jesus is?
