Republican activists appear to be increasingly leaving behind oil, the economy, and the war as campaign issues in favor of a single campaign issue: Obama is the anti-Christ foretold in Revelations. Only recently, James Bramlett sent out an email warning that Satan was behind Obama’s success. Now, Dutchess County Republican Committee Chairwoman Corinne Weber has sent an email warning that Obama may not just be powered by the Anti-Christ, he may be the Anti-Christ himself. [Update: S.C. Mayor agrees that Obama may indeed be the Biblical Beast]
Dutchess County Republican Committee Chairwoman Corinne Weber sent the email on Friday night in disclosing her biblical/political research into the Book of Revelations. She states that the anti-Christ is clearly a man of Muslim descent in his 40 with massive appeal. Of course, Revelations was written long before the creation of Islam, but that does not seem to worry Weber.
Instead, she asks: “Do we recognize this description?”
She insists that, for her part: “I refuse to take a chance on this unknown candidate who came out of nowhere.” [Notably, thought Weber does not mention this fact, 666 road signs have been disappearing from New Jersey roads — an expected Obama state]
Of course, by her own definition, a person with mass appeal means that George Bush cannot possibly be the anti-christ. Yet, for some pushing the nation into an unparalleled economy crisis, saddling future generations with crippling debt, embroiling the nation into two endless wars, creating an official torture program, and enflaming the world against us would constitute more compelling evidence of a dark force.
Campaigns in Tehran have more substance this year. The nice thing about convincing religious fanatics on the right that this is about fighting the biblical beast is that there is no retort possible. Obama cannot “prove the negative” by showing that he is not the biblical beast since that is precisely what the biblical beast would do. Indeed, as he continues to rise in the polls, it is further evidence that he is evil. Besides, I already identified the biblical beast as Michael Eisner in a prior column.
With the other issues now off the table, the only room for campaigning left to the Obama camp is to run counter ads featuring John McCain’s own dark demonic origins. There does appear to be such a basis. McCain was born in Latin America, causing a controversy over his status as being “natural born.” However, the most serious problem is his resemblance to Itzcoliuhqui: the Aztec dark god. Called “the Twisted Obsidian One,” the God is viewed as ruler of darkness and destruction. Blinded when he was cast down from the heavens, Itzcoliuhqui strikes out randomly at his victims. Using Weber’s own research standard, ancient Aztec stone tablets indicate that Itzcoliuhqui will be a graduate from Annapolis and a senator from a warm state. It even mentions that Itzcoliuhqui is married to a woman who owns her own sacrificial temples in seven different places and adorns herself with gold.
I call upon McCain to prove that he is not Itzcoliuhqui. Otherwise, “I refuse to take a chance on this unknown candidate who came out of nowhere.”

You’re ability to weave knife attacks, numerology, gardening, and atheism into a single entry is an extraordinary accomplishment.
The number ‘7’ is most significant – 5 + 2 = 7 …

That five-inch knife thrust into the skull of the victim, on the other thread, was a mini-chef’s knife.
Mespo ?
I use one for little jobs in the kitchen – like cracking skins prior to mincing garlic cloves and slicing veggies, fruits, and herbs
– fresh out of the gardens for all kinds of yummy Italian, Mexican, and Asian dishes…
… yum
Everybody says Patty’s gardens are the prettiest!!!
I say, as a master gardener, myself, mine are certainly that,
but they are also ‘healthy’ and totally organic – as they have
been for years!
Claiming that “son of Cain” is the reincarnation of Itzcoliuhqui is an insult to the Big Itz!
This is too funny! 🙂
mespo,
You are really dense sometimes! 6 – 5 = 1. 6 + 1 = 7. 666 thus clearly converts to 527. In the first instance you subtract by 1 leaving 5, in the second you add by 1 making 7. The number one occurs twice in the formula (1 + 1 = 2). I can’t believe I have to spell this out for you!!!
Gyges,
That is a great site and I totally agree. Who knew?
You know what the really sad part here is?
Besides I mean a bunch of grown people trying to paint Barak Obama as Damien Thorne?
😐
That the “Anti-Christ” spoken of in Revelations was a guy by the name of NERO, who has already lived, and died, long before any of these yokels were born.
Thats the sad part.
JT:
I would like to be a 527 group. Apparently they are “king makers.” Where does one apply? And do I need a pointy goatee, and horns to apply? Finally, I have it on good authority that the number of the beast is neither “666,” nor “527.” I am told to look for the mystical number “1040A.”
“Or maybe I’m just as insane as these religious nutcases.”
No, Buttercup, not you. It’s them, it’s all them.
I found an intersting observation among the comments on the page provided by Gyres. The poster noticed that the GOP candidate’s name is Mc(the Irish or Scottish designation for “son of”) Cain. Hmmmmm.
Gino,
That can’t be true, because Prince Charles is the Antichrist. The devil seems to be using an old addition of “Who’s Who in World Empires”

I’m so glad we never hear the mild-tempered Democrats spreading such nonsense. Oh, wait …

Of course, in McCain’s case, it’s true and apparent on its face. So it’s just accurate reporting.
According to whistleblower Stephen Spoonamore, the religious right has a firm grasp of our election software, and they will make sure that Chosen Palin gets in office in 2008. In another thread, I explained why the Rove/Cabal wants her in.
All this babbling about the devil, satan, anti-christ: It’s simply laying the foundation for election theft in November. It’s called self-fulfilling prophesy, too.
I wish I could be as light-hearted about it as some are here, but our elections have been rigged since 2000, and 2008 will be no exception.
The Rove/Cheney cabal has control of our future, and until we realize that nothing is as it seems, there will be a pile-on orgy of religious bullcrap and dire biblical warnings between now and November. That way, there will be a “surprise win”, and people will point to The Flock as helping to make it happen.
Or maybe I’m just as insane as these religious nutcases.
Sister Sarah Palin’s religious exhibitionism brings out the fervent best in her followers…from the Wasilla, Wasilla, Bing Bang witch doctor/hunter to the Antichrist Neighborhood Watch Crusaders (ANWC).
These speaking-in-tongues zealots have Ol’ Beelzebub and his witches sequestered behind the Gates of Hell fearing here-he-comes-to-save-the-day Li’l mighty mouse ‘Cain’s pledge to chase bin Laden to their Gated Community.
Onward Christian Soldiers marching as to war
With the cross of Jesus going on before…
Gypes, that is truly frightening. I yield to your superior mystic sources. As for your proposed search, Mespo, I remain confident that the biblical beast will have 527 on its scalp.
JT,
Everyone knows that those stone tablets were meant as coded descriptions of contemporary people and events. Anyway, you can never trust the prophesies off of a stone tablet.
I did recently discover from my study of Nostradamus, Hildegard af Bingen, and “Theoretical Physics for Dummies” that very soon “the Bear” will enlist the aid of forces from another dimension to invade “the land of the moose queen.”
I don’t know about you but I am demanding a full body search for that “666” sign on each candidate. As for McCain and he being the reincarnation of Itzcoliuhqui, that is pure rubbish. Itzcoliuhqui actually knows what is going on!
“Do we recognize this description?”
Yes we do! In the DSM.
Once again, you both are missing the possibility that this is the biblical contest foretold in Revelations. How do you explain that the bible refers to “the biblical beast being funded by 527 groups.”
I love the smell of GOP desperation in the morning.
This is an illustrious example of the inherent problem with all religions. All religions, by their very nature, are illogical, fruitless journeys for the pathetic minded. Faith is a deceptive and disingenuous path that is a stark dichotomy of danger and delusion. I see faith as a poor attempt to bridge the unknown—a lazy one, barren and hostile toward science and reason, intellect and progression. It requires no evidence, or even credibility, but merely faith itself—which is simply an irrational endeavor into self-delusion out of an innate need perhaps, to assuage one’s own internal doubts about life. I find these ideas personally astonishing and crippling—I see them as a hollow crutch for people who have doubts, fears, and struggle with mortality. Accordingly, proclaiming piousness and quoting apocryphal scripture does not give one the privilege to make a statement of fact sans sufficient and irrefutable evidence, of which, in regards to religion or God, there simply is none.
