Obama - 100 days in office, coronated Messiah  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 80/100. whiteheather39 (15570)   ranked 195 out of 3,985 in politics 3 years ago

I thought I had seen it all but this takes the cake. I also find it to be blasphemy!On his 100th day in office, President Obama will be "crowned" in messianic imagery at New York City's Union Square.
Artist Michael D'Antuono's painting "The Truth" – featuring Obama with his arms outstretched and wearing a crown of thorns upon his head – will be unveiled on April 29 at the Square's South Plaza.
According to a statement released about the portrait, "The 30" x 54" acrylic painting on canvas depicts President Obama appearing much like Jesus Christ on the Cross: atop his head, a crown of thorns; behind him, the dark veil being lifted (or lowered) on the Presidential Seal. But is he revealing or concealing, and is he being crucified or glorified?"
Even the title of the piece, "The Truth," suggests a play on biblical themes, as Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."

I just post on this a couple hours ago,you can read a couple comments at my discussion.
One person I spoke in person with this morning in regard to this Barack Obama painting to be unveiled in New York on April 29,2009 said they are ashamed to be called an American citizen and I had to fully agree,the United States has kissed the face of SATAN and the end results will with out question total destruction.
The United States is suffering the cuss of God Almighty as we speak,moral decay and financial failure one after the other, and we have seen nothing compared to what is coming, the American people will be mopping up the blood of their own children in the day's ahead,ROSE

shocked I agree with you. God will not be mocked and all throughout the history of man ,we have seen God's response. This reminds me of the Eygtians when they refused to listen and refused to accept God's laws. The wrath will come upon all of us and if he condones this, God's anger and sadness will be shown. It is extremly sad.

Looks like a mockery to me, unless of course the artist is saying that this is what Obama thinks of himself. I do not like it. It seems to be poking fun at faith.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kareng (3747)   ranked 384 out of 3,985 in politics  3 years ago

I agree somewhat, but has Obama endorsed this painting? Or is this just the artist's portrayal of Obama? Id does seem like mockery of faith and I find it in very poor tastes. It is a slap in the face to all Christians. I wonder what faith this artist is?


myLot reputation of 80/100. whiteheather39 (15570)   ranked 195 out of 3,985 in politics  3 years ago

So far Obama and his sycophants have managed to squash anything even slightly detrimental to the Obama image. Therefore I am quite convinced he approves of this latest piece of crap

Blasphemy...a victimless crime. :)

It's probably actually mocking Obama followers in that it compares them to Christians praising their Lord's every word and action.


myLot reputation of 99/100. GardenGerty (35296)  3 years ago

That is possible. The artist says that it is up to each person to interpret what they feel. I do not think the article says if Obama endorses it. I do not know if he will say anything at all.

Obama's narcissistic ego will love the comparison.

This is sicko! The man is actually that infatuated with Obama. I have read stuff that he wrote because I thought it was supposed to be kind of an insult to Obama. It is not. He like Farrakhan think Obama is the Messiah. I do not even believe in the christ and I find this offensive. I can just immagine what the christians think.

Shalom~Adoniah

Mar 13:22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.
Yes it seems that Obama wants to take the glory from Christ and put it on himself. This is blasphemy. He makes himself equal to God. A very dangerous man. And there are those who enable him. America is going to sorry four years from now if something is not done sooner.


myLot reputation of 80/100. whiteheather39 (15570)   ranked 195 out of 3,985 in politics  3 years ago

I agree...we will all, including Obama followers, be very sorry. He does not bode well for this US of A


myLot reputation of 78/100. suspenseful (19610)   ranked 218 out of 3,985 in politics  3 years ago

It seems it is getting worse and worse. Already the Senate has approved a hate crime bill and the only reason that Obama will veto is because part of the bill it is on the back of is approval for certain military airplanes. So he is more interested in the privileges of a certain lifestyle then making the military more effective. And the cap and trade bill will certainly bankrupt many Americans, but it will not effect Obama and his family and his minions, safe behind their ivory tow= I mean the White House, attending the best schools, having the best of everything.
And thanks for the best response. happy

I saw that and I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Do we need any more evidence that 0bama worship exists and it is out of control?


myLot reputation of 80/100. whiteheather39 (15570)   ranked 195 out of 3,985 in politics  3 years ago

Sadly his followers are blind to any evidence. However I am very surprised that none of his congregation of fools have responded in adoration!

I'm too busy throwing up after seeing this blasphemous trash to leave much of an intelligent reply. Suffice it to say that if anyone didn't beleive that 0bama has a cult like following complete with cult mentality, here is the proof.


myLot reputation of 80/100. whiteheather39 (15570)   ranked 195 out of 3,985 in politics  3 years ago

....and that cult mentality is what is going to destroy our country.

The painting almost looks like a satirical cartoon. I tell you though, there are people ready to annoint him the next coming of Jesus and those who say he's a complete failure as a President and the biggest thing I see from your post is 100 days. The man has been in office for just 100 days. He hasn't been around there long enough to save the world or f*ck it up yet.
If he survives martyrdom he will do his eight years and move on, but it's almost like things are being pre-scripted that he'll go the way of Martin Luther King.
I neither like or dislike the guy politically. I just hope things get fixed where people can work and you don't have mortgage the farm to fill your car with gas.


myLot reputation of 62/100. AngryKittyMSV (1913)   ranked 281 out of 3,985 in politics  3 years ago

In 100 days he's done PLENTY to harm our country! THAT is why people are so concerned! He is advancing the far left agenda at a heretofore unimaginable breakneck pace. He's bad mouthed the American people all over the world, apologized and bowed to people who despise America, plans to set terrorists free from Gitmo into the United States and give them welfare, seeks to remove a person's right to legal counsel in the event of an arrest, has spent more taxpayer money than all the leaders in the history of the world COMBINED, wants to take over private industry and place limits on what employees can be paid (in areas NOT seeking government aid), is using taxpayer money to fund FORCED abortions in China, put a huge TAX CHEAT in charge of the US Treasury and the IRS in addition to a whole host of other tax cheats being appointed to various important cabinet positions, put a person in charge of homeland security who has labeled our own soldiers and veterans as potential domestic terrorists, and that is just a small sample of some of the destructive things he has done in such a short time!


myLot reputation of 80/100. whiteheather39 (15570)   ranked 195 out of 3,985 in politics  3 years ago

Angrykitty what a great comment!!thumbup You put the whole dreadful actions of the first 100 days in a nutshell. I am now terrified of what the next 100 days will bring.


myLot reputation of 92/100. ORyansBelt2012 (2111)  3 years ago

Maybe I'm just stupid.
I can't see how someone can screw something up that badly in so short a time.
Y'all are making me sound like a democrat, friggin defending Obama. I was a Bush fan.
Here's the deal, for the next four year, you're stuck with him. Like Hillary said before a congressional committee last week, "Like him or not he won the election, he's our president."
Spending the next four years all piissed off at him is just going to put anger lines on your face.
Hopefully, maybe he'll fix what's broken. If not, then in four years we find someone else.


myLot reputation of 62/100. AngryKittyMSV (1913)   ranked 281 out of 3,985 in politics  3 years ago

It's our civic duty to speak out against actions any govern met official takes that may be detrimental to our country. You know, there were people in Germany not too far back in history who remained silent against tyranny because they thought perhaps that you shouldn't criticize the leader of your country, and look what happened! Six million people died and a whole bunch of people had to live with the fact that they said NOTHING.


myLot reputation of 92/100. ORyansBelt2012 (2111)  3 years ago

You're right about your right to voice your opinion, free speech is a coveted right - three rights in one sentence, doesn't that make a left?
More than 3,000 Americans died on 9/11 because we ignored the warnings from terrorists in the 1990s.
I'm curious... (and I'm a Bush fan so I'm not being inciteful here)... but did you voice your same outrage of George Bush when the mortgage market crashed, the housing market went bellyup and No Child Left Behind fell on its face? The economy right now is in the crapper because of things we did over the last eight years. Bill Clinton (and I'm not a Clinton fan) left us with a balanced budget while he was doing Monica. It's not so much Bush's fault, but Congress. But Bush is the guy at the wheel so he gets the blame.
I'm not trying to be argumentative, I'm just trying to know where you're coming from.

While campaigning his motto was something like "change, we can believe" i think. America has all this policies for long and they need a change. All these agitations are expected when change is about to happen, people want what they are sure that it works, they are afraid of change. I think the man made it clear during his campaign, he wants to bring change. So why all these.......
