We elected a man not a messiah

[Abaddon865]

I'm proud of my man President Obama. He's gonna have to make some compromises, but hey that's politics.

1. I agree. And a presidency is not static, nor is each decision irrevocable and

terminal.

:hi:

2. Who thought we elected a messiah? How do you find one to

elect?

3. Proud of President Obama too.

"Messiah" is a derogatory term used only by Republicans.

8. Guess I'm just pointing out a clash of metaphors there.

9. How so?

Should I have said shot? Because I think that Gandhi was killed by a fellow Hindu, who was upset at Gandhi's peace with the Muslims.

10. Really?

The Messiah was crucified...


I mean, so was Spartacus and a few other Roman era miscreants but "crucified" is usually associated with all things Jesus. Just a thought.

11. Just a nasty way to go

It's just a phrase that people are familiar with as a brutal way to die. Guess I wasn't thinking about the correlation.

12. I am seeing a Messiah in the making right here ....

Thrust onto a cross of his own making ....

Enjoy your stay ....

So you decide to take your dog and pony show here?

I hope you have your asbestos thong on, honey, you are about to get charred.
