I’d trade a horse in the senate for Kennedy or Kerry. Okay, with Kerry, it’s a even trade.

Obama: "We are God's partners in matters of life and death"

"We are God's partners in matters of life and death"

So, unless I'm mistaken, he has taken the sacred words of their religion and bastardized them into something eerily reminiscent of the Third Reich? And the rabbis are apparently mesmerized by the man? This is beyond sick and it is perversely ironic. I just do...not...get it.

Wow...”God’s partner?” The sad thing is I’ll bet he believes that. Unbelievable.

Wiki says that only the third stanza is the Anthem of Germany

It would be interesting to know if the whole song was played on the conference call.

But even if only the third stanza...who does that in the US???

It makes no sense.
Had to be intentional and someone should investigate.

Or as another poster said..Maybe God is the one that put it on the track of music.

If Obama knew he would have substituted "Tommorow Belongs To Me!"

“We are God’s partners in matters of life and death,”

If Obama said this he is WRONG from the word GO! God is NOT partner with Obama or anyone else who is for abortion. No way...no how!

Is this part of the magic act, too? Hiding the cross. Not hiding the cross. Not being a Christian nation. Appealing to religious leaders—including Christian leaders. Communion in DC. Church. No church.

Playing “Deutschland uber Alles” to the rabbis on hold...and somehow the clerics’ tweets had ‘technical difficulties (per Politico’s commenters)

I am surprised the guy doesn’t combust at the mention of the Almighty. Also, I must admit the course of hurricane Bill heading toward New England & Nova Scotia is worth an ascerbic smile. Even the name is ‘Bill.’

Obama went to the church of God Damn America for 20 years.

He is no Christian. He is a deceiver. One not of Christ but of an antiChrist.

To the narcissist, God and he are partners, as long as God serves the narcissist's needs. When you compare the following excerpt to Obummer's behavior and his large band of cult-like followers, I dare say a shiver will run up your spine, rather than a tingle down your leg. - OB1

Excerpt based on the book "Malignant Self Love - Narcissism Revisited" - Sam Vaknin :

God is everything the narcissist ever wants to be: omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, admired, much discussed, and awe inspiring. God is the narcissist's wet dream, his ultimate grandiose fantasy. But God comes handy in other ways as well.

The narcissist alternately idealizes and devalues figures of authority.

In the idealization phase, he strives to emulate them, he admires them, imitate them (often ludicrously), and defends them. They cannot go wrong, or be wrong. The narcissist regards them as bigger than life, infallible, perfect, whole, and brilliant. But as the narcissist's unrealistic and inflated expectations are inevitably frustrated, he begins to devalue his former idols.

Now they are "human" (to the narcissist, a derogatory term). They are small, fragile, error-prone, pusillanimous, mean, dumb, and mediocre. The narcissist goes through the same cycle in his relationship with God, the quintessential authority figure.

But often, even when disillusionment and iconoclastic despair have set in -- the narcissist continues to pretend to love God and follow Him. The narcissist maintains this deception because his continued proximity to God confers on him authority. Priests, leaders of the congregation, preachers, evangelists, cultists, politicians, intellectuals -- all derive authority from their allegedly privileged relationship with God.

Religious authority allows the narcissist to indulge his sadistic urges and to exercise his misogynism freely and openly. Such a narcissist is likely to taunt and torment his followers, hector and chastise them, humiliate and berate them, abuse them spiritually, or even sexually. The narcissist whose source of authority is religious is looking for obedient and unquestioning slaves upon whom to exercise his capricious and wicked mastery. The narcissist transforms even the most innocuous and pure religious sentiments into a cultish ritual and a virulent hierarchy. He prays on the gullible. His flock become his hostages.

Religious authority also secures the narcissist's narcissistic supply. His coreligionists, members of his congregation, his parish, his constituency, his audience -- are transformed into loyal and stable sources of narcissistic supply. They obey his commands, heed his admonitions, follow his creed, admire his personality, applaud his personal traits, satisfy his needs (sometimes even his carnal desires), revere and idolize him.

Moreover, being a part of a "bigger thing" is very gratifying narcissistically. Being a particle of God, being immersed in His grandeur, experiencing His power and blessings first hand, communing with him -- are all sources of unending narcissistic supply. The narcissist becomes God by observing His commandments, following His instructions, loving Him, obeying Him, succumbing to Him, merging with Him, communicating with Him -- or even by defying him (the bigger the narcissist's enemy -- the more grandiosely important the narcissist feels).

Like everything else in the narcissist's life, he mutates God into a kind of Inverted Narcissist. God becomes his dominant source of supply. He forms a personal relationship with this overwhelming and overpowering entity -- in order to overwhelm and overpower others. He becomes God vicariously, by the proxy of his relationship with Him. He idealizes God, then devalues Him, then abuses him. This is the classic narcissistic pattern and even God himself cannot escape it.

Wonder what God thinks of his new “partner.” Mostly Obama is a partner of Death and the guy who sells it.

Amen!

I’m glad I wasn’t the only one that noticed that. Isn’t that the reason satan was thrown out, because he considered himself the equal to G*d?

Where does the Bible say that the government is my brother’s keeper? Is this a sign that the Jews are accepting Obama as the Messiah? Or will they properly reject his claims to Deity as blasphemy? Obama’s demagoguery now reaches a new high water mark. Will religion continue to accommodate Obama’s claim to Deity? Will the Jews continue to be the government’s partner in matters of life an death? We know that the liberal fascists believe themselves to be God, and to have the right to play God in every aspect of human life, but they rarely admit it so proudly as Obama has done.

If my name was “Lightning” I wouldn’t go around calling myself God’s partner...reminds me of the last creature that tried that.

ZOT.

This only shows that that particular Reform Rabbi is an illiterate. Yes, Hitler commandeered the tune. It happens to be part of a Violin Concerto by Josef Haydn. Leave it to a liberal not to know that.
