My dream that Obama really was the anti-Christ, and that the end-times were at hand were all shattered last night. Today is a day of mourning for me.

Interesting. That's a higher percentage than come to my site via that search, and I actually have a thread dedicated to it.

I see that Huffington Post wins the "Obama anal sex" google. Unfogged is not even in the top 10. For shame!

He does look a lot like the AntiChrist, if you ask me. I don't why people are joking about this.

It's surprising the number of people - many of whom have what would appear to be credible educations - who really believe that he might be the antichrist. I know of some people - they live in Texas, though perhaps that goes without saying - who were convinced that it would be a sign of the end times if Bush had not been reelected. Honestly and truly. The crap these people believe is frightening.

Can you tell from the logs how long those people stay on the site? (Google Analytics does this for me.)

These are the same stupid motherfuckers who sat around on December 31, 1999, with their survival kits and their shotguns and shared detailed fantasies of the collapse of civilization. If there are enough of them to steer our nation I'd like them to go ahead and assert themselves in a detectable way so that I can find a new country.

Hi, stupid motherfuckers!

The management, needless to say, is not responsible for my purely peanut-gallery views.

We have Google Analytics here, too, but honestly I don't care enough to check. I use textism's "refer" for this stuff--it's a much faster way to get an idea of what's happening.

While if he had to do so it would almost certainly mean that he's going to lose, it would almost be worth it to see how Barack would formally respond to the rumor that he is the antichrist. I hope it would involve a smoke machine.

I love to daydream about the walk of shame the morning after some screwball rallies the cult for The Real End Of Times, This Time, No Kidding. Heading back down the hill, dejected, lawn chair packed up, kids back in the car seats. "We thought we were done with car seats!"

The Antichrist cannot be a Bears fan. A Raiders fan? Maybe. But a Bears fan? Unlikely.

I can see Tim Russert asking the questions now:
OK so you say that you are not the Antichrist, but as you know the Antichrist is responsible for all human suffering. Knowing that if he did endorse you would you reject and denounce his endorsement? What if the Antichrist is black? What if a black person within two degrees of separation said something good about the Antichrist once? What about Harry Belafonte?

Glenn Beck asked John Hagee what the odds are that
Obama is the Antichrist. Thanks CNN!

7: who were convinced that it would be a sign of the end times if Bush had not been reelected.

So who did they vote for?

Anyway, I'm not sure this belief is so unreasonable. The guy is unstable, dumb and ruthless, and he has access to nuclear weapons. I'm a little nervous about the period between the general election and the inauguration.

Devotees of the book of Revelation will recall that the Beast has a sidekick, whom Hal Lindsey (IIRC) dubbed the False Prophet, and who bears a strong physical and spiritual resemblance to Dick Cheney.

[11] And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
[12] And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
[13] And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men ...

Obviously, the "deadly wound" was losing the 2000 election. The fire from heaven should appear any time now ....

So Barack Obama is left handed, which may mean that he is the antichrist, given that the Bible says the devil is left handed. Given that I am left handed, might I also be the antichrist?

Also, I'm glad to see that this is a resolved question. No need to think about it anymore, I guess. It's resolved.

18: At least Hagee said "no," so it'll be credible when Obama denounces and rejects the demons of Hell.

(Sifu, there was a very funny parody of the "denounce and reject" question in the comments at The Poor Man, but I can't find it again. Do you know where it is?)
