Why does the devil in 'The Bible' look exactly like President Obama?
Daily Mail UK ^

Posted on 03/18/2013 5:22:14 AM PDT by Perdogg

Sunday evening's episode of the History Channel's hit series 'The Bible' threw up an awkward coincidence when viewers noticed that Satan bore a remarkable resemblance to President Obama.

Twitter exploded into life during the airing of the latest edition of the Mark Burnett-produced series with most noting the striking similarities between the 44th President and the devil played by actor Mehdi Ouzaani.

The show has been a surprise hit in the ratings, with the religious mini-series attracting 13.1 million viewers on Wednesday - topping television leviathan American Idol's 12.8 million viewers on Wednesday.

Then again, King Herod looked like Krispy Kreme Chris Christie.

I haven't seen that one, but the AT&T It's Not Complicated ad with little Obama doing two things at once -- shaking his head and shaking his arm -- causes my gag reflexes to kick in and I have to mute or turn the channel. Some of those ads are cute; that one is ridiculous.

Hey, that’s a cheap shot
After all it’s not the Devil’s fault.

It was NOT Satan’s appearance that was so similar.

It was Satan’s temptations!

Obama’s continuous campaign would have us believe we can live on the “bread” the government offers.

Obama offers citizens all they need, if only they will worship him and his government, and deny their faith in God.

Who are the producers of the show? Was this sort of deliberate or a freaky accident?

Considering one of them does Survivor, Trump's Apprentice shows, Shark Tank, and The Voice then I doubt there is a lot of love lost for Obama. I think it was deliberate, and very creative, too.

Are those ads scripted or do they let the kids say what they want?

I am a little surprised at how violent the program is. Especially when the Angels come down to Sodom to destroy the city. Or perhaps the violence doesn’t come across to me when I read the verses. Scary to see a Vengeful God. Hope I never see Him like that.

The producers are a husband and wife team, Mark Burnett (?) and Roma Downey, of "Touched by an Angel" fame.

Apparently, Mark is the producer of at least five #1 TV shows that I've never watched.

I heard them interviewed by Beck before the series launched. They are conservatives, and much of the discussion revolved around being a conservative in Hollyweird.

They downplayed the difficulties, which made me think they were soft conservatives. But choosing Zero to be the devil tells me otherwise.

This is silly. The guy playing the Devil does not look like Obama. This story is simply filler. Ironically, The Daily Mail is showing its racism with an “all light skinned blacks look alike to me” story.

The devil sure did from having watched the “Bible” mini-series, looked like Obama.

A sort of foreshadowing?
