#26 — er; when did Obama claim to make the oceans rise…? I must have missed that. Isn’t global warming making the oceans rise…?

Let’s look at mainstream conservatism, shall we? Over on Conservapedia, the entry on Obama says that if he’s elected he will be officially the first Affirmative Action President. This is what conservatives believe. According to their logic, any black man that would ever become president — at any time, anywhere — is necessarily an Affirmative Action president.

Mainstream conservatives are racist? Perish the thought!

Meanwhile, in the upcoming Presidential Debate…

Jim Lehrer: “As previously agreed by both parties, you’ll have two minutes to answer this question, and later another 30 seconds to rebut your opponent’s answer. And our first question is, do you think your opponent is the Anti-Christ, and why?”

(It’s just a good thing that presidential elections never get silly, isn’t it?)

John,

The language from this add comes directly from the Obama campaign (and Oprah’s reference) All us conservitives are doing is using their own words against them. When has John McCain claimed to make the oceans rise?

Well, since it’s in Revelations, we know the antichrist will be able to do a few things:
1. Be really nifty and likable.
2. Will have an assassination attempt that hits him in a vital area — making others believe he’s dead. After 3 days, news will come back saying he miraculously lived. Everyone will be happy.
3. Will unite the world as one — and get everyone to ID themselves happily.

Since we’d need someone to try to kill the antichrist before he can unite the world — wouldn’t it actually be better if everyone held off trying to kill him so he can’t unite the world?

That, and you’d need to actually see the guy come back to life before he’d count.

i’m waiting for mccain to have a post traumatic stress attack somewhere in the campagne, would be enlightening if it happened in a “debate”.

Mack,

All the BS Express aside: What part of “He’s already leading” didn’t you get?

Of course Obama is not the antichrist. Dick Cheney can’t be in two places at once.

#19 – I guess this would also make me anti-tooth fairy, anti-Santa Claus and anti-Easter Bunny too. Shame on me for denying anyone the right to worship their imaginary friends.

If you ever find yourself discussing this with a biblical literalistic, ask them to show the name “Antichrist” in Revelation.

It’s not there.

The term is used in in I and II John but it is sloppy biblical scholarship to link this to Revelation.

Probably the best way to render this term is someone who denies Christian beliefs about Jesus.

This board is thick with anti-christs, for example.

I thought he was the Messiah? Does this have something to do with Mormons thinking Jesus and the devil are brothers?

hmm.. I was told that America leave Church and State separate in American History class. Today I was fixing a TV and left it on CNN HD and all day they talk about damn preachers in governments.

To me it seem that MOST peoples in Americas are NOT American enough.

This early, i really can’t tell which i would side with, but i am leaning towards obama. Furthermore, the GOP base is not even warming up to mccain (of course, i could be wrong) and even though it’s still early in the game, this just proves to show how we see our candidates to-date. i know i will get burned for this, but i think mccain is a warmonger. i get the impression that he doesn’t care to what happens to our troops in the middle east and the other parts of the world. Can’t we just all get along? i think it is time for a purification; i think it is time for a change; i think it is time for obama time. Now that the candidates are set for the US Presidential Election, Barack Obama and John McCain are beginning to set the tone for their campaign.and i just want to share a video that i saw in clashorama try to check it guys
