'OBAMA IS ... GOD'

This should be a great way to start off your week. Just listen to this Obama-fawning editor of Newsweek proclaiming that "He's is sort of God." Evan Thomas, in this same interview, said that "Reagan was about America," and "we're above that now."

Well .. isn't that special. We've finally gotten over that "America" thing. Isn't that grand? Yup, with Obama in office we're finally above that "America" stuff. And not only are we beyond this "America" stuff, our president is way way above it, in fact, he is a sort of God.

The media is in love with this guy. I know, I didn't have to tell you that, did I? This is the first time Newsweek has had a touch with religion in quite a while, and now that they've proclaimed our Dear Leader to be a sort of God, how can they allow him to fail?

Some people are going to actually be upset that Thomas said "sort of." Obama is, you know, a true God. And America is the world's largest Muslim country (in case you didn't know).

What others are saying

  • Pharaoh Obamahotep
    Given his godlike status, as Evan Thomas has indicated, should we now crown Obama "Pharaoh Obamahotep"? Obamahotep could be translated as "Obama is satisfied". Well, not yet, but he is working on it... God, the real one, help us all!
  • Obama is God!!!
    What nerve! What a sheep. Obama is a weakling and so are his followers.
  • Obama is god
    While living in southern Italy, I am reminded of an ancient society who worshiped their leaders. Sounds like we are going to repeat history.
  • Obama above America
    I'm surprised that the word God was in Newsweek (cancelled years ago) Not surprised that they associate it with "their chosen one". Don't be surprised when Newsweek goes the way of the NY times.
  • He really IS a sort of god...
    "I am become DEATH, the destroyer of worlds". This refers to Shiva, but Kali is also a possible candidate for the god that Obama has become. If you insist on staying within the Christian pantheon the only real contender is the Anti-Christ.
  • Obama vs. God
    Didn't God give us free will and aren't Obama and congress taking that away every day?
  • As I've Said Before...
    All hail Barry the Christ! Speaking the Good News from the Teleprompter on the Mount!
  • All About American is Wrong?
    I would hope the president of the United States would be ALL ABOUT AMERICA. I don't want to live in a country where my leaders aren't concerned about me.
  • If Obama is God
    Is this a retraction by NEWSWEEK of the TIME MAGAZINE COVER April 08,1966 that stated, "GOD IS DEAD" ???
  • I love America.
    I love traditional America not Obama's America. Guess he and his cohorts should start designing a new flag. Attend a 4th of July tea party. And lets start voting these socialists out in 2010 mid-term elections. They are not Americans.
  • Newsweek SUX
    This type of reporting and editorializing is why I cancelled my Newsweek subscription years ago.
  • Muslim Nation....
    ...folks, saying that "America is one of the largest Muslim nations" in any relevance is disingenuous at best and wholly inaccurate.

    Forrest, by raw numbers we dont even make the "Top 50" ...we make 52 out of 60. And if you want to count every nation on the list having at least one Muslim as part of the population, then you are fishing for skewed data with a penchant for bending analysis.

    Percentage of population provides a far more accurate cross section and the U.S. has a 0.8% Muslim population overall...even the U.K. beats us. Next thing you will want to compare is number of Muslims per square mile of area by country (by the way, the Solomon Islands would beat the U.S.)
  • Evan Thomas
    this is funny coming from the SAME guy who, in 2007, said "Well, our job is to bash the president" when responding to a question on whether the media's unfair to Bush on the TV talk show Inside Washington, February 2, 2007.

    http://newsbusters.org/node/10631

    As if we needed more proof that the MSM is biased, hypocritcal, and pushing an agenda.
  • Obama as God
    Evan Thomas' god is very, very small.
  • face D.C. and on your knees
    Of course he is: I lay out my United States Constitution doormat/rug (facing D.C.), wipe my feet on it, and pray 5 times a day.
    Recite the prayer “oh great and knowing Obama, the great savior of the underachievers, the light of the government educated, the all knowing on how business is ran, will ensure they will not fail, only those he deems are too big to fail. We the followers hear the great speaker and are mesmerized by his generalities and the thoughtful pauses and intellectual umm’s and ahh's, oh great leader, we are not worthy to be looked in the eyes when you speak to us, your profile is all we are worthy to see as you read from the two pillars of your message teleprompters. The great and powerful Obama will provide for those who supported and believe in the great savior, and the achievers and productive will feel the wrath of the all powerful for not following the choosing one” Obama (“Amen” has been officially replaced by the great word “Obama”)
    (Insert sarcasm where necessary… like the whole thing)
  • Implied meaning of words
    Since words DO matter, saying that we are one of the largest Muslim nations "implies" that we are a Muslim nation. You do not refer to a nation that only has a small percentage of any given minority as a nation of (insert your favorite minority). If a nation is predominately Muslim, it would be proper to refer to it as a Muslim nation. We would not refer to America as a Black nation, a Latino nation, an Italian nation, a Buddhist nation, a Chinese nation, or even a Caucasian nation (lord, now how much trouble that would cause). So why would the Harvard educated most powerful man on earth even use the term "Muslim Nation" when talking about America? That is the real question. He could have easily said, "America has a large population of my Muslim brethren within her borders." That would be a more accurate statement.
  • worth worshipping??????
    Hey neckid,settle down. I hear ya.
  • worth worshipping??????
    hey! I happen to be a non believer (atheist). do I have to bow down to osamabama? welllll go a head and chop my friggin' head off now....
  • the frog price
    apparently, the requirements for godhood have dropped considerably...
    http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2469396/Frog-that-changes-colour-worshipped-in-India-as-a-god.html
  • Get it straight y'all
    I am NOT an Obama fan but in all fairness, his statement was the US is ONE of the largest Muslim countries...and he is RIGHT. We are 30th on a list that includes every country on Earth. When you take into consideration how many countries there are you have to admit we ARE one of the largest.

    Now for all you OBAMA fans out there...can you see how his statements can be taken to mean more than one thing?

    This is a man who cannot and should not be trusted.
  • All I know
    is that this is going to get very very ugly very very soon.
  • msm and ron paul
    the other day i talked about america was a mediaocarcy. here's some proof

  • To: Jubilation
    "How do you tell if a politician is lying?
    b. Copyleft immediately posts here to agree with said politician."

    Umm, that joke would've worked better if I had actually posted anything agreeing with the comment.

    Reading comprehension, Jube; work on it! (grin)
  • Herod
    These comments remind of the story in the Bible of Herod, son of Herod the Great where people were saying that he was the voice of god. Then God himself struck him down with worms. Maybe Obama is opening up a can of worms so to speak.
  • WOW
    Ya'll been busy while I was gone! So many funny statements would like to comment on each, but I have work to do. But Gator Steve, the Unholy Trinity gets top prize dude!!! I was spewing coffee on that!

    How do we go from a few million Muslims to being a Muslim Nation? I don't care if it is "one of the largest" or not. It isn't true either way unless you want to completely ignore all the other groups. Hell, the agnostic/atheist group is larger than that!

    Stupid comment.
  • What Obama Said
    What Obama actually said was that, if you look at the number of Muslims in this country, America has one of the largest populations.

    What he also said is that America is not a Christian nation. And he's right. This is a secular country, and it will always be so, and if you don't like it, then leave.
  • Not to stir the pot or anything...
    but what if Obama ended up actually being the second coming...
  • I could have lived w/o that this A.M.
    I may puke. Who is John Galt?

  • the pretender is
    more like hitler, chavez, satan, castro than any god. For those who worship him need to read the bible and find out what happened to those who reveled around false Gods while Moses was on the mountain - they were sent to hell. I am offended that anyone believes this man is a god. - disgusting and frankly I am sick and tired of the media fawning over him. What else does the media do? get down on their knees open mouthed on a routine basis?
  • How do you tell if a politician is lying?
    a. The politician's lips are moving.
    b. Copyleft immediately posts here to agree with said politician.
    c. All of the above.
  • Obamessiah
    I guess the Obama thrill is running up more than one MSM leg.
    This whole thing reminds me of watching Beatlemania documentaries (well after the fact) when I was a little boy; except instead of screaming, semi-orgasmic young girls, we have talking, semi-orgasmic newsmen.
  • it's not just Evan Thomas
    Check out the report of the Obamas having foie gras, lamb, and steak with shallots. The owner of the dining establishment said "I saw God before me, because I saw this smile that a million people have seen around the world."

  • While accurate, BHO was sending a message...
    "And one of the points I want to make is, is that if you actually took the number of Muslim Americans, we'd be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world. And so there's got to be a better dialogue and a better understanding between the two peoples." -- Barack Hussein Obama

    * And if you took the number of Christian Americans, we would be one of the largest Christian nations in the world.
    * And if you took the percentage of Muslim Americans, we would be one of the smallest Muslim nations.
    * And if you took the percentage of Christian America, we would STILL be one of the largest Christian nations.
    * And if you took the number of people owning an iPod....
    * And if you took the percentage of people owning an iPod...

    Draw your own conclusions.
  • being a "Muslim nation"
    There is a rather large difference between saying we have one of the largest muslim populations in the world and saying we are one of the largest muslim nations in the world.
  • ibid
    Deism and the founding fathers

    Deism was a religious philosophy in common currency in colonial times, and some founding fathers (most notably Thomas Paine, who was an explicit proponent of it) are identified more or less with this system. Nevertheless a number of early presidents are sometimes identified as holding deist tenets, though there is no president who identified himself as such. The following Presidents are often identified as having some degree of deistic beliefs:

    George Washington
    Thomas Jefferson
    James Madison
    James Monroe
    John Tyler
    Abraham Lincoln
    Note, however, that most of these identifications are controversial. Washington in particular maintained a life-long pattern of church membership and attendance, and there is conflicting testimony by those who knew him.
  • Joyce, Charlie,
    Right you are - as is butt neckid with his DRIP slogan (I think it's his) ... BUT ...you guys know the MSM drives the outcomes of elections now. (that's not a question).
    BTW - don't get me wrong here as an Idolhead (cause I'm not), but if the theory on Adam Lambert's and Susan Boyles' losses are correct (basically, a recoil against their merits and some favoritism being shoved down the throats of the viewers/voters), how in the hell did obama get elected? Is some muslim loving leftie out there going to tell me that the MSM's deep throating of America WRT obama wasn't (isn't) real, like the Holocaust wasn't real?
  • Clapton
    David,I'm not sure everyone got the Clapton comment,being an Audio Eng,it hit home hard. I had coffee coming out of my nose.LOL.
  • @ Anonymous
    Thanks for posting that link, I did go and check it out. After reviewing this, I still think that Obama made a fair statement. Here's why:

    Per your link:
    -- By one estimate, there are about 6 million Muslims in America. That would put the U.S. at No. 34 in the world.

    -- By another measure, the Muslim population may be closer to 4.1 million -- No. 41 globally

    Given that there are about 200 countries on Earth, both of these statistics put the US as a nation in the top 25% of muslim populations. If we were, by definition, not one of the largest muslim nations, we would be in the lower 50%, but that is not the case.

    Again,
    I'm not looking at it as a 'by percentage of population,' I'm looking at it as strictly numbers of people. From that point of view, I think it is fair to say that we're one of the largest muslim nations by population.
  • oh.my.obama.
    Did anyone else find this disturbing about Reagan being all about America and how we are not that anymore: "parochial, chauvinistic, provincial"?

    I disagree with Forrest- I didn't think his body language or tone was sarcastic- I thought it was when he was talking about Reagan tho.

    As far as "Obama Beach"- I saw that he didn't even flinch or look puzzled when Brown said it- kinda reminds me of my dog who only really understands his name and likes to hear it when being petted. it makes him feel comfortable.
  • Obama
    Evan Thomas of Newsweek can choose whomever he wishes to be his God. But for me, my God has never let me down, Obama has. " Always put uour faith in principles not in people because people will let you down every time."
  • Obama god
    obama sort of god, joe biden sort of jesus, nancy pelosi sort of the virgen mary... OMG the unholy trinity!!!!
  • No wonder they are so touchy about their patriotism.
    I'd be too, if I ever got "Way above," America. He's had rectal cranial inversion syndrome for a long time, I'm not surprised he thinks worship of a leader, or the state, is above the worship of an immortal omnipotent being. I wonder if he'll bow to hussein like williams, or kneel and try to kiss his ring.

    Evan thomas was the one who admitted the msm bias in the '04 election would be worth about 15 points to kerry. No doubt he considers himself a patriot in the vanguard of the world revolution.

    He also said, "Well, our job is to bash the president, that's what we do almost --" in reference to President Bush. Thomas said President Bush "lost whatever support he had," when he discounted the Iraq Study Group and continued what turned out to be(and already apparent at the time he said itearly in 07) the winning strategy in Iraq.

    And they wonder why so few bother to watch or read their propaganda any more.
  • Ivan @ 06/08/09 09:00:46 AM
    I hear you brother,but this American is wide awake.Hell I don't sleep at night anymore,I stand watch.

    Hey Joyce,(I don't care if Obama fails personally.)Hell, I'm going to do everything in my power to help the boy along.
  • Question
    Aren't we a Deist nation?
  • To stepcousin
    Obama's puppet masters are the banker finanicier oligarchs. They own this country and our leadership. They control literally everything. They are tired of just merely playing with all the money. They want direct control and power. They will complete liquidation of America by the end of this year. The question is what are you going to do about it?
  • Newsweek
    Newsweek? What, is that a magazine or something?
  • Well, this isn't a lie - he said
    "Americans are ready to join with citizens and governments, community organizations, religious leaders, and businesses in Muslim communities around the world to help our people pursue a better life."

    uhhhh, no I'm not.

    and that's okay lefties, because some people don't like dogs, for others it's cats, for others it's skunks or snakes. See, we all get to "not like something" in this here free country - for me it's muslims - okay?
  • the
    the press/msm does seem to have a history of building up someone then they can tear them down. I think this is just msm's way of demonstrating their power in most cases as in "we made you and we can break you".They may have bitten off more than they can chew this time with Obamas push into gov. control/ownership of everything.The media business has not resisted government influence so far and it is not a big move from MSM to Obama Stream Media. Mike M: I like it but the right's arguement that "separation of church and state" doesn't exist would be turned against us. Maybe his god status is a safe guard in case the "not a natural born citizen" argument ever gets traction. God status would over rule "born" with "always existed"
  • Obama, the puppet
    "Reagan was about America"

    That says it all. Liberals expect Obama to become king of the world. What they don't realize is he's playing the Steve Martin role in "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" .... basically a dolt playing the role of a smooth operator, manipulated by puppet masters.
  • Not that it matters...
    But I thought we only had two million Muslims? Don't care, we are NOT a muslim nation.

    And Charlie, that is just depressing! Probably true, but still.....
  • Skata
    I agree....I will find my Newsweek at my local library and encourage all here to do the same, and pass it on!!
  • Copyleft
    Ok Copyleft, here is your chance to show that you have some intelligence...Forrest gave you credit for the largest Muslim nation error on Boortz part....lets see you defend what Evan Thomas said....if your going to call BS to one..the intelligent thinker would call BS on the other..
  • Hello, Joyce
    I agree with your assessment that we basically should not vote for the career politicians.

    Now, if our votes only counted.
  • obama is god
    Anyone have Eric Clapton's responce about this.
  • Forrest
    We really cannot even be considered one of the largest. Am I allowed to post a link? If so, you can read here...

  • Obama 98 pound weakline
    Obama is being seen by the world as the 98 pound weakling who is having sand kicked in his face by North Korea and Iran. When the U.S. stops fawning over his romantic date nights which I doubt he had when he was only a community organizer or senator then maybe they will start paying attention to what a joke he is.
  • His church, not mine
    This clown at Newsweek has admitted who he worships. It's not a surprise that he does, just that he now feels comfortable saying so openly. Is he also still claiming objectivity and independence on the part of his publication?
  • Obama is God???
    Is this why Brian Jennings bowed to Obama?
  • To Jimbo...
    The media help the NWO divide Americans. How could it be a good thing right now for Americans to be divided on issues? This is the time when we should be on the same side. Right now it should be us vs the government. Not left vs. right. That is what they want. The longer they keep us divided the easier it will be for them to prepare us for the NWO. That is what all of this is about. This is the time when the NWO will be presented as an alternative to depression. Once we agree to let it happen our lives will never be the same. You will be chipped slaves. You will have mandatory government service. You will have government eyes in just about everything you do. Just wait until TV set top boxes get more advanced. They will literally be able to feed you marching orders through the TV. The Russians have been experimenting with this technology for six decades.
  • Obama is God
    Not only that, apparently they're renaming historic places after him - re: Gordon Brown's wonderful speech in which he referred to "Obama Beach" rather than "Omaha Beach"... what a disgrace
  • Obamadulation
    Okay, we're the greatest nation on earth. We are NOT North Korea, Stalin's SU, or anyone's whipping boy.

    I recommend that everyone go "find", (not purchase) a copy of Newsweek, note the sponsors, and give them h-e-doublehockeysticks.

    Let's send this slavering mad dog off to the professional oblivion he deserves.
  • Got to agree with CopyLeft on this one...
    Have to agree with Copy, Obama didn't say we were the largest, he said we were one of the largest. At 7 Million Muslims, that is a fair statement. We're a larger muslim nation than say... France, Lebanon, Kuwait, Myanmar, the UK, Sri Lanka, Spain, and we're just short of the population of the United Arab Emirates. There is a difference between largest muslim nation as a percentage of the population, and the largest by population. We're a fair player when it comes to the number of muslims we have in the US, and I think he made a fair statement.
  • I'd like to see the full interview
    This looks like it could be taken out of context. His body language to me says there is a certain element of sarcasm going on. I don't believe he was sincerely calling Obama a god.
  • re: MikeM - Church & State
    Great point Mike! I love it.

    If we can catch the anointed one admitting it, then we can demand he resign.
  • Oh my
    And I thought there was a liberal media bias. Looks like it's all out media worship. Obama.. the new golden calf.
  • Seriously...
    Evan Thomas is sort of a jackass and Newsweek is sort of irrelevant in terms of 21st century political reporting.
  • So now you're repeating outright lies?
    "And America is the world's largest Muslim country"

    C'mon, Neal... you know better, even if your listeners don't. Obama never said that.
  • Obama as god.
    You realize this is the first step in his destruction. I have Nothing personal against the man. But when you place an individual that high up, then impulse to bring him down is irresistable and inevitable.
  • President God
    Obama's greater than God, because he has a wife who can dunk.
  • I say it again
    I don't care if Obama fails personally. I care that AMERICA succeeds. A president, regardless of who is in office, is an employee, a temp at best. It is WAY more important that Americans are able to succeed or fail on their own without government interference. Government interference has been our biggest problem for decades and everyone in Washington, except for a handful, needs to go because if they haven't gotten the message by now, they are not going to convince me they have, just to get my vote.
  • This is NWO propaganda...
    Alot of you will call this left wing crap and whatnot, but it isn't. This is New World Order propaganda. They want you to put Obama above all else and solidify him as almost Godlike. They want all the spotlights on Obama while they continue to loot the country. The media is complicit in the Obama propaganda. Bilderberg has been busy taking everything from the American people. They cannot afford for the American people to wake up and realize who the real criminals are.
  • Obimbo
    Golly... Did I miss the transfiguration of the Anointed one?
  • Obama is God?
    Wouldn't our separation of Church and State pretty much demand that Obama immediately resign the Presidency?
  • obama god
    I prefer to have a president who is all about AMERICA.
