When a high-profile panel of professors, journalists and civil rights leaders gathered in Louisville, Ky., recently to discuss the Obama presidency and race, one of the academics, law professor James Chen, offered a unique perspective on the subject. Chen, dean of the University of Louisville Brandeis School of Law, has worked for both Barack Obama and U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, though not at the same time.

    I thought it was satire at first. Sadly, it’s not.

    Its true. Both are religious. Their religion drives their values, their actions and their lives. But one is a Christian, the other a radical Islamist bent on destroying America.
 A reporter who is fooled this easily should not be allowed out in traffic by herself.... or was she not fooled... but lying on purpose.

    Suddenly they’re saying how similar we all are. As they try to ram irreversible change down our throats.

    Obama is the spawn of the Marxist, Alinsky-Leninist Alien Democrat Youths (MALADY) of the 1960s campus rabble. With the same money and effort put forth we could have elected a pizza president. 
 How is that like Justice Thomas?

    One a muslim and one a devout Christian. From Chen's view, Thomas is a Catholic and Obama is a Protestant. 
 Obama attended the Trinity Church of Christ for 22 years. The Church of Christ is a Protestant denomination but the Trinity Church of Christ preaches Black Liberation Theology. BLT preaches Communism and racism rather than Christianity. It is rabidly anti-America. That is Obama's "Protestant" background.
 To compare him to Clarence Thomas is a sacrilege.

    Huh? The disgraceful Obama’s name should not even be used in the same sentence as that of Clarence Thomas.

    The defining trait for both would not be race, but religion. Chen said he does not know two more "profoundly religious people" than Barack Obama, a Protestant, and Clarence Thomas, a Catholic. Is Black Liberation Theology a religion? Or is it merely left-wing politics? 
 Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

    If theyre the same them no one will notice if we switch them.All things considered, I'd prefer to them to remain in their present spots. Obama, unlike Thomas, doesn't have a life term. With any luck, Obama, unlike Clinton, will be a one-termer.
