A new poll by the Public Policy Polling group of New Jersey voters is out, here. An impressive 32% of conservatives believe that President Barack Obama is foreign born. With an additional 19% expressing uncertainty, that brings the figure to 51% of the polled citizens expressing the belief or suspicion that he is foreign born and not eligible to serve a President. Another 14% of Republicans and 18% of conservatives believe he is the Antichrist. That is by no means contradictory since the Antichrist is also foreign born.
I have some doubts about the view of these conservatives since I previously wrote a column identifying Michael Eisner as the AntiChrist and biblical beast, here.
Of course, Obama’s decline in popularity may indicate that he is not the AntiChrist. In the Bible, the AntiChrist is quite popular.
“And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?” (Revelation 13:4).
At his current poll numbers, Obama may have to be downgraded from AntiChrist to demons or rebellious angel. (Rev. 12 7:9:
“And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8 But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. 9 The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.”).

Better yet, you can hear the hidden messages to Satan found in his inauguration speech:
Or this video walks you through the Biblical references to Barack as the AntiChrist:
If that is not enough, consider the fact that he is a White Socks fan and only wears White Sox caps — long known to Northsiders like myself to be the most obvious sign of a tool of Satan or Satan himself. Case closed.
@D.D.Driver: But Bush did have advance notice of 9/11 and failed to do anything about it. Remember the report: “Bin Laden Determined to Strike in US”. Bush’s response: “OK, you covered your ass, now go away.”
Other than reluctantly seconding Bob, Esq., I have nothing more to say on this thread. Then again, why does everyone always assume that the Antichrist is a male?
lottkatz,
Thank you for posting the Maddow interview with Frank Schaeffer.
“The election broke their brains.” — Bart Simpson
Mr. Schaeffer appears to have outgrown his experiences with the Christian Conservatives. I don’t doubt his prediction concerning violence.
billy,
“I really wonder if “they” actually believe this absurd rhetoric?”
I’d say about as much as some Longhorn fans believe 17.5 pts may not be enough.
billy, it’s a peg to hang their fear and ignorance on.
This probably has something to do with it too. A great interview by Maddow with Frank Schaeffer, author of “Crazy For God”:

The people who buy into these conspiracy theories are showing true ignorance. I really wonder if “they” actually believe this absurd rhetoric?
To quote the title of a book I HAVEN’T read, but that seems to apply to these strange people:
“Too Soon From the Caves, Too Far From the Stars.”
…and 35% of democrats think Bush had advanced knowledge of 9/11 and didn’t do anything about it.

The take home lesson? About a third of each party is fucking crazy.
The fools who believe the claptrap about Obama’s supposed non-citizenship are proof that our educational system has failed us, as we have an inordinate amount of mis-informed, gullible citizens buying the bull shit. It has to be a failure of our educational system, we can’t have spawned that many mental defects naturally.
No has yet to criticize BUSH, aka “The Decider”, for deciding to turn over the reigns of power to a foriegn born Anti-Christ. Wasn’t “W” a Born Again Christian? He couldn’t detect AL Quaeda’s attack on 9/11, even though he had the PDB saying so, and now it turns out he couldn’t recognize the evil destroyer of the Gods earth after having conversations with the Almighty. Boy, you’d think Republicans would lose some votes and supporters with blunders like these.
Despite this poll, there are only 49 people in the U.S. who truly believe Barack Obama was not born in Hawaii and only 12 who sincerely believe he is the Anti-Christ. Both groups should be institutionalized to save the body politic.
The rest of the people espousing these beliefs are plain ole racists – with a vote.

Remember the Moral Majority agenda, which was neither.
This is the Authority Minority, same hot air and will dissolve when exposed to scorn, mockery and ridicule. All together now.
Funny how this has come up today. After Jack Black Led a prayer at the MTV Awards. The audience actually bowed their heads and held hands while Jack prayed. I believe he’s a registered democrat.

a foreign born anti-Christ? Where have I been?
They must be from Missouri.
This stuff is just plain non-sense and should not even be repeated.
C’mon Bob, don’t you think you are being a little to critical on this point? The boob-cathchers who believe this are obviously boob-cathchers, but not all Homo sapien sapiens subscribe to this type of rubbish..
And you thought herding cats was tough.
There are at least two takes on this. The first assumes that the people left to themselves would stay reasonably united, and therefore harder to control. Thus division is engineered specifically for the purpose of dividing the nation so as to keep it weaker against government forces.
Bob, Esq. points out the other take on it.
How many times do I have to say it?
Mankind has not evolved an inch from the slime that spawned him.
