Barack Obama Is a Muslim Anti-Christ, Without a Real Birth Certificate. There, I said it. Phew. I don’t believe a word of it, but I said it. I’ve been stewing over this since the election.
Last night, my wife and I went out to have a lovely anniversary dinner. Thank you, thank you, it’s been seven years. We went to our little favorite Italian restaurant and were seated next to a family there for a mom’s birthday.
I don’t like to be seated close to people in restaurants because you can overhear conversations. I like to listen, but I don’t like to be heard.
So anyway, we’re talking, they’re talking, and I hear a reference to the Red Faction terrorist group that perks my ears up “nice obscure terrorist group reference,” I think. Then the table’s conversation shifts to politics in general, I’m listening with one ear.
The birthday Mom: “Well, you know he’s the anti-Christ.”
An older lady at the table, her mom or maybe even grandmother, “Oh, don’t say that, he’s our President.”
Birthday Mom: “You’ll see, we’ll ALL see. He’s the anti-Christ. We’ll all see soon enough.”
I nearly spit my pasta out.
Then the older lady said something like, “Well, I always say don’t talk about politics or religion, it always gets you in trouble…”
The conversation toned down and they left soon after.
I voted for President Obama, and was proud to do so. He’s had a tough time, and I haven’t agreed with everything he’s done. He said it wasn’t going to be easy, and he’d stumble along the way, and he has.
I respect that birthday mom has an opinion, and she can have that opinion in our free society, but she doesn’t need to be blasting it across the restaurant. And it’s not just because I disagree with her, but she should keep her ignorance to herself. Save it to corrupt her poor toddler son who was running around the table. Of course, we do live in Temecula California where “No On Prop 8” demonstrators lined the streets.
What makes President Obama the anti-Christ? Really, what is it? Is it because he’s a Democrat? Is it because he’s part African American? Is it because he’s a different kind of politician? Is it because he wanted to try and change things? Is it the horns, forked tail and pitchfork? The constant quoting of Revelations and the “Left Behind” series and his aversion to all things Kirk Cameron?
To loosely quote one of my favorite politicians, Sarah Palin, “How’s that hope and changey stuff workin’ out for ya?” Just fine so far Sarah, but it’s going to take some time. How’s that governor job working out for ya? Oh ya, that’s right, you QUIT. How are those ETHICS probes workin’ out for ya? Oh ya, ONGOING.
Obama was my first Democratic vote. I’m no Republican either my friends. I’ve been an Independent for years.
Obama is hardly the anti-Christ, we all know that’s Bill Gates. Or Sarah Palin. Or Paris Hilton. Or Will Smith. C’mon, think about it, no one is that lucky. Tom Cruise is out of the running; he’s had a rough few years.
Obama’s also not some Muslim terrorist, who is going to open the gates and let Al Qaeda in. We won’t be wearing turbans and burkhas. Don’t worry. His father was a Muslim, and young Barack briefly went to a Muslim school. I went to schools in Germany. I’m not a German. Plus, what if he WAS a Muslim. It’s a RELIGION. It’s radical Muslims we should be worried about. Funny how no one seems to be worried about the RADICAL CHRISTIANS how have taken over the agenda of the Republican party.
And then there’s the birth certificate thing. Obama doesn’t have a real birth certificate so he can’t legally be President. Do the Teabaggers really think someone didn’t check this out? Do you really think this was overlooked?
“Age, check! Money, check! Application to be President, check!…OK, you’re good to go!”
It’s easy to find plenty of proof that a valid birth certificate from Hawaii has been supplied and verified. Oh, but it MUST be fake! The anti-Christ wouldn’t have a birth certificate from Hawaii; he comes from the deepest bowels of HELL!
Is Pres Obama a closet Socialist? A Marxist? Is he waiting to open the floodgates of Communism!? Most folks if they read actual communist/socialist theory under a different name probably wouldn’t think it was so bad, BTW. Unfortunately, we’ve never really seen it in wide practice, and it either gets perverted (Marxist-Leninism, Maoism), or just doesn’t WORK (the Soviet Union). I know, what about China? Well, what ABOUT China? Cheap toys, bikes and Kung Pao chicken, I say!
I’ve never seen any backlash towards a President in the years I’ve been following politics. Not even when President Bush Jr. supposedly rigged and stole two elections.
What we really need to fear is the swing towards right wing extremism and unreality. Things like saying ANY President is the “anti-Christ” or a “Muslim,” or that after legitimately winning an election, he’s unqualified because his birth certificate is fake.
Is it so shocking that Barack Obama wanted to be President to try and bring hope and change, and a different type of leadership? He became part of a system so stagnated, corrupt and archaic, and hit “stumbling blocks.” Is it so shocking to think that he’s a patriotic American trying to do what he can? Part of his style is communication and compromise, something new to our politics and international agenda as a whole. It IS different and necessary.
Is it so shocking to believe no President has been Evil with some Evil agenda? Perhaps President Bush jr was sincere in thinking that two wars were necessary…plus Saddam Hussein tried to kill his Daddy.
WAIT, Barack Obama’s middle name is Hussein!
Maybe Bill Clinton wanted to bring some change, and get some sweet BJs along the way from the weakest zebra in the herd interns.
OK, I’ll give you Richard Nixon as Evil President with an agenda. That’s why he’s perhaps my favorite President!
It goes both ways though…there’s the extreme Left as well. Like the 9/11 conspirators. This one gets me going almost as much as Barack Obama is the anti-Christ. I mean really? REALLY? Even Willie Nelson is a 9/11 conspirator. How much pot have you been SMOKING Snoopy Nelson?
I find it impossible to believe that the US government would crash two planes into the World Trade Center, one into the Pentagon, and then try to get another to crash into the Capital or White House. Of course the conspirators would say I’m being naïve. They would say, “have you seen the videos?” The Internet videos of the supposed FAKE planes crashed into the WTC? The video of the MISSILE shooting into the Pentagon.
Yes, I’ve SEEN the videos, the planes look pretty real to me as they did over and over when the whole thing happened, Sept 11, 2001. The missile video didn’t look too real though.
I’ve SEEN the videos. I also saw the giant hole in the side of the Pentagon. You could see it from my father’s grave at Arlington National Cemetery when he was buried. I’ve also been to Ground Zero. I was in New York City 3 weeks after 9/11/01. So I’ve been there, all looked pretty real to me. Plus, I know people who knew and lost people in the Towers and on the planes.
From what I know, the conspiracy goes that the Bush Jr administration planned the whole 9/11 attack for an excuse to go to war with Afghanistan, and then with Iraq. Supposedly the heat from a jet explosion wouldn’t be enough to melt the tower girders and make them collapse in on themselves the way they did. Hmmm…I’m no demolition expert, but I’d think two jumbo jets could cause some damage to a couple of decades old skyscrapers. Especially after King Kong hung on them in “King Kong 77,” weakening the structures.
I don’t think President Bush Jr came up with this plan as justification to go to war with Afghanistan and Iraq. I think Al Qaeda came up with a plan to crash planes into the WTC, Pentagon and the capitol or White House hoping to cripple the United States’ political, financial and military infrastructures. The plan didn’t work. I think Pres Bush Jr went to war with Afghanistan as the Taliban had harbored Al Qaeda.
I also think the whole WMD in Iraq and Iraqi ties to Al Qaeda were trumped up so the US could go to war with Iraq. This doesn’t even take into account we’re now fighting groups and governments we used to support and give money and weapons to. We supported Iraq in their war against Iran, and Bin Laden, and Afghani factions in what would eventually become parts of Al Qaeda and the Taliban in the 80’s war against the then Soviet Union. Oh, the Cold War was so much easier with the clearly defined enemies!
But, once again, I don’t believe the US government is responsible for 9/11 as an excuse to go to war. That’s as unbelievable as the events of 9/11 themselves. Before 9/11 if someone came up with that idea for a movie, it wouldn’t pass muster. Too unbelievable, they’d just remake an 80’s movie like Die Hard. Or maybe that WOULD be Die Hard IV. The truth is stranger than fiction, but not as strange as conspiracy theorists would like us to believe.
Call me naïve, but I think President Obama truly wanted to try and change the way things are done in politics and the world. He’s not a traditional baby boomer politician. He’s not from the WWII or Vietnam era politicians. Those guys, like John McCain, are getting old and crusty. It’s a new generation leading. Our leaders are not going to be all war veterans. We can’t blow up whom we want anymore. The enemies are not black and white. Love it or leave it, we’re reaping some of what we’ve sown. The political stage domestically and internationally has changed. Things are different.
Will I vote for Obama in 2012? I don’t know yet, depends on who else is running. I WILL vote AGAINST Sarah Palin. You bet’cha!
I don’t think Pres Bush Jr was Evil either. Dick Cheney, maybe. Apparently that black heart keeps conking out on him. I think Bush wasn’t the sharpest tool in the White House and was taken advantage of by guys like Carl Rove, who have been taking advantage of Republicans for years. You can be smart, have jowls, and still be evil. Whose REALLY running the show? Conspiracy theory!
Anyway, what do I know?
Like the lady at dinner said “don’t talk about politics or religion, it always gets you in trouble…”
Of course, if Barack turns out to be a Muslim Anti-Christ Socialist Without a Real Birth Certificate, never mind.
