Obama impersonator crosses the line - Jonathan Martin - POLITICO.com

Did comedian Reggie Brown cross the line?




This is a wake up call for me. Had a white republican said such things, I'd be incensed. However when George Bush was President the jokes were coming fast and furious.  I think there is a double standard.  Just like black people can call each other the "N-Word" but white people can't use it. Fair? No. I think the best way to handle this just like the. N-Word, no one should use it. You can criticize another person's policies and opinions, and decisions without personally attacking their race and character. It seems like our society has forgotten how to do that.

When will people learn to not make comments they don't want a room full of people/television audience of millions to hear next to a microphone? We gotta make sure to think before we speak. Case in point....

Barack Obama's State of the Union Address 2010



WASHINGTON - JANUARY 27:  Members of the U.S. ...Image by Getty Images via Daylife
Last night I watched a lot of President Obama's speech and I liked what I heard. The thing is I hope he is being honest about  caring more about doing the right thing than being re-elected. He most certainly is making moves that are cheesing off people whose support he is going to need to get re-elected - and perhaps avoid the possibility assassination. We really need to pray for out President. It seems like such simple thing he is trying to do if we all work together - balance the budget, keep the nation safe from terrorism,  and heal the economy. He seems to always meet with opposition. Instead of offereing their own solutions they seem to just be intent on blocking him (and not just Republicans). I really agreed with the President's criticism of the Supreme Court. It really was a bad idea overturning limits on campaign spending by corporations. I mean who's butt was kissed for that to happen?!! Obviously Justice Samuel Alito thinks it's a good idea...I just can't say I see any way he could be right. Funny he couldn't contain his disdain for the President's remark. It was written all over his face. Well here is the speech:




And while Alito's reaction was not as extreme as Rep. Joe Wilson of South Carolina shouting "You lie!" at the President, it still bothers me because I wanna know what part of remark he disagreed with.

Dr. Claude Mariottini - Professor of Old Testament: Praying for the Death of the President


Dr Claude Mariottini has written a great article on his blog refuting who is advocating that we prary that God kills Barack Obama. His article is awesome and really exegetically sound. I think its important that Christians stand up and call 's remarks what they are: unbiblical. I would also add that  I think is racially motivated. It can't be because of Obama's religion or policies because the truth is they are not much different than any President we have had up until now.  I loved the graphic Mariottini included in his post. Please read his post.

The Best Obama Cameos in Comics


Two articles that I missed in the Comics Alliance Blog this year highlighted how President Barack Obama has been portrayed in Comics books from America, Europe, and Japan. Read the articles. If you like Barack Obama, you'll like this historical treatise!
