Davis Guggenheim's recently completed film biography presents an unstintingly glowing portrayal of President Barack Obama. There is, to quote Guggenheim, “no downside to this man save the enmity of his enemies.”
“Only one other person in the history of the world has led a comparably exemplary life,” Guggenheim asserted. “Jesus healed the sick. Obama gave us healthcare. Jesus fed the multitudes. Obama has put more people on food stamps than any other president. The parallels between the two men's great works are uncanny.”
Guggenheim expressed some anxiety that “like Jesus, Obama may be crucified for his efforts. Every day, right-wing fanatics stir up hatred of the President. Just as Jesus was denied mercy by mobs outside of Pilate's palace, talk radio agitators like Rush Limbaugh urge voters to deny Obama a second term. The very idea that we could be repeating mistakes made 2000 years ago sends shivers up my spine.”

Spot on.
Very well done!
(or Newt, or Rick, or an old pair of socks even!)
What I found fascinating about Obama and his “Christianity” is that he misuses scripture like Satan did. When he made the “brothers keeper” gaffe I was amazed that he continued (and continues) to run with it.
Does he realize he’s using Cain’s words to God when asked about Abel’s whereabouts and Cain says, “Am I my brother’s keeper?”
As a single gaffe, this would be bad enough. But using “we are our brother’s and sister’s keeper” as a campaign meme is an insult to Christians.
I’ve had several people, out of the blue, both when I lived in Seattle and here in Kentucky, ask me if I thought Obama was the beast in Revelation. I tell them all that he is either a complete fraud, and will go down hard, or he is the beast and it will take God to fix it, and Obama will go down even harder.
