Any president, no matter how bland his personality and moderate his governance, is a natural target for humour and satire. The office, more than its occupant, unavoidably attracts it.
The fact that comedians find themselves unable even to poke mild fun at Obama is indicative of something much more disturbing.
You joke about Presidents. You joke about kings. You even joke about the Pope. You don’t joke about God.
Obama is their God.
This is idolatry exemplfied in its purist form.
You joke about Presidents. You joke about kings. You even joke about the Pope. You don’t joke about God.
Oh, you can joke about God all you want.
You NEVER joke about STALIN!
