Obama the Messiah
by ~Aaron on Oct.10, 2009, under Not Politcally Correct
Well, I have kept my mouth shut for awhile now, but I just can’t do it anymore! I’m back at the keyboard and probably going to offend someone! OH WELL!!!
I’m back on soapbox about Obama. This time, as you know, he has won the Nobel Peace Prize. And for what? Was it the record high budget deficit we hit this year of $1.4 trillion? Was it because he still hasn’t closed Guantanamo Bay? Was it because he still hasn’t brought our troops home from Iraq? Was it because he spent $787 billion on bailouts and stimulus packages that most of us never saw any results from? Was it his lack of support for Israel and his insistence that they give up Jerusalem? No, I don’t think so. I believe that all of this and more was overlooked! I believe it was simply because he made some speeches that sounded good with a lot of great promises that he still hasn’t kept! I also believe that it was because he is “black”, the first “black” president of the United States of America!
Go ahead, call me a racist! You won’t be the first! But let me assure you that I am no racist! Unlike the majority that elected this guy, I don’t see color as a problem or a validation. None of us chose what color we were going to be, so what does it matter what color someone is? It doesn’t. A person’s color doesn’t make them any better or any worse than another person. What they believe in and stand for is what makes the person. I don’t see that Obama believes in or stands for anything but himself!
I read some comments on a popular social network today. I just want to share them with you. I find some of this to be really troubling:
“Can you people be proud for once that we have a great leader? He is not perfect, nobody is, but for god’s sake he is rebuilding what Bush ruined, and Bush ruined A LOT.”
A great leader? Really? Where has he lead us? What has he done?
“We are finally doing things we can be proud of, yet the American people have tried everything in the book against him: he’s a commy, a muslim, or a fascist. He wasn’t born here. He is hiding his grades from school. He is a liar. Did I miss anything?”
What have we done that we can be proud of? Have we never done anything else that we can be proud of?
“I think Obama becoming president is a great thing to have happened for americans”
“Congratulations Obama!!! He is a messiah !”
This one really bothers me! There is only one messiah! His name is Jesus!
“Congrats to the American people for having this great leader as their President”
“I must live in an alternative reality. What exactly has President Obama done to receive a Nobel Peace Prize?
What conflict did he end? For what historic issue has his leadership provided a breakthrough?
Congratulations to him, but I thought prizes of this significance were awarded for high achievements. His presidency has promise & potential, but at this early juncture, I fail to see any milestone to justify this honor.
If talking nice & playing well with others is what now constitutes the criteria for a Nobel Peace Prize, then I nominate Big Bird or Burt & Ernie.”
They call him messiah, but will he die for your sins?
Yes, these people are serious. Some of them are not even from the U.S.! I hope you all get the point that I am trying to make. Obama cannot be the messiah! But, he can be something else. Remember this, he is also the same one that said that the Bible was just not appropriate to try to live by in this day and time. I cannot support anyone that holds this view. The Bible is the most appropriate thing to try to live by today or any other day! If you don’t believe in it that’s your choice. Realize that just because you don’t believe in something, doesn’t mean it isn’t real. When Colombus sailed around the world for the first, no one believed it was round. Their disbelief didn’t change what was real.
I hope that I have not offended anyone, but if I did, then you probably needed to be offended!
Just my thoughts…

I could not agree more. I am not an Obama-hater or slammer, but the reality is that he really hasn’t been President long enough to have accomplished anything of the magnitude to constitute something like being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. And I don’t know of anything prior that would warrant this either. I am disappointed in those making these decisions, and feel it will only serve to fuel more anger and turmoil b/t the races. How unfortunate. It would have been nice to have awarded the President an award if and when it was earned, but now this decision will change even more opinions about him, our government and our society. As far as the Messiah thing,…that’s just wrong on so many levels, but as far as I know, Obama has not referred to himself as the Messiah. Consider the sources. Good work, Aaron.

Okay, I thought about what you said about Obama not having referred to himself to as the Messiah, but it is fairly common knowledge that he has been referred to as such and I have yet to see address it or deny it. I’m not looking for the negative in this, just keeping reality in perspective. I think. Sometimes I think what doesn’t get said is just as important as what does. He did, however, say that the Bible was not appropriate to try to live by in this day and time. That didn’t set well with me…

These left wing progressives running the white house and Pelosi have stuffed the country up, $14,000,000,000,000 is the US debt,Do you think theres any return to glory for America???? It is not possible when our politicians (from both parties) are only motivated by getting reelected???? Just to blame Bush on the other hand is just as dumb but certainly plausible! Today we are still treading water, the next time the market bottoms, we will all know what a real depression feels like.
