Barry thinks he IS Jesus.

No kidding! Barry's "Agony in the Garden" was that fumbling attack on SCOTUS on Monday.

Didya happen to notice he had a guy on either side of him during that?

One commenter at site:

Give me your loaves and fishes you rich bastards, and stand back. I’ve got a miracle to perform… (spreadin the wealth around)

And for my next trick, I’m gonna smite the SCOTUS from the temple of justice…

If only one thing goes my way for the rest of my life, let it be Ubama fading into the Sharia sunset on November 6th.

Obama has cited Jesus and his Christian faith as an animating force in his life.

I suppose it was Jesus and Obama's (alleged)Christian faith that animated him to stand for infanticide in the Illinois Senate.

Did anyone need the Heimlich Maneuver after he said that? I know I would have either choked on my eggs, or the coffee would have gone done the wrong pipe.

Well, he and God do have one thing in common, one cannot find a legitimate birth certificate for either.

You know, when I said Barry thought this week was about him, I was just kidding.

Well in this case, I wish God WOULD take the cup from his hand.

“But he says that’s precisely when he recalls the “triumph” of the Easter story, and Jesus overcoming his doubts and fears before the crucifixion.”-from the article.

Two points that concern me tremendously about what Obama said.
One, that’s a pretty poor understanding of the Easter story. The triumph had nothing to with Jesus overcoming doubts and fears before the cross. Jesus suffering in the garden had nothing to do with doubt (I don’t want to start a theological debate, but I don’t think an omnipotent God can doubt- he knows.). Jesus was agonized by the knowledge he would soon take upon himself the sin of all mankind and be forsaken by God the Father for three hours of darkness of the cross. The triumph of East is the resurrection, the empty tomb- The Risen Savior.

Point two, consider the agony Jesus faced in the garden when he couldn’t get even the closest of the disciples to stand by him and knowing that they would all desert him when the time came. It is arogance of the highest order to compare any minor earthly suffering to the mighty suffering Jesus faced.
To compare oneself to Jesus is a bit too close to Isaiah 14:14 “...I will be like the most high.” We know who said those words.

Obama: When I struggle, I just think of Jesus’ agony in the garden

That kind of statement, especially coming from Obama, is enough to "gag a maggot on a gut barrel".

Moochelle is the only one you know Obama that suffers agony in the garden.

Wearing those designer shoes while tramping around in the mud is agonizing.
