(Picture is of "Christian" columnist on Onenewsnow.)
What follows derives from Onenewsnow.com.
This is what "guest" columnist Matt Friedman said a TV cameraman said about Senator Barack Obama:
"Oh man," he admitted more than swooned. "He's a rock star."
Friedman doesn't have much use for "rock stars." He says that the TV cameraman didn't seem to "applauding the concept [of rock star], but he did in fact acknowledge that America seems to be gushing over a candidate with a certain appeal that is viscerally emotional and hard to contain."
Hmm...you know where this is going, right? Friedman claims that people see Obama as the "Lightworker," who "isn't really one of us," with a "powerful luminosity," and "a unique high vibration integrity," or a "Rare kind of attuned being."
"You read this stuff," he says, "and you think, My goodness, some people have finally found their god." Freidman just can't be nice, and turns really nasty, unChristian even, and a liar:
"But then you wonder if this god won't reach under his chin after the election, grab the edge of the mask and yank off the facade to reveal himself as the man who told us in language we weren't listening to and a voting record that was obfuscated by a cult of personality that I am indeed the One."
Oh, my god, Obama IS the anti-Christ!
Just listen to this Friedman character, this fine up-standing Christian:
"The One who promised to raise your taxes; buddy up with our sworn enemies over a latte; grow government in an attempt to assuage every conceivable un-addressed woe; appoint to the courts 'moderates' who reflect the most liberal justices we currently have (thus re-redefining moderation); push further the boundaries of life by supporting partial-birth abortion and even refusing to protect children accidentally born alive because the abortionist missed; and redefine marriage so that marriage doesn't matter much anymore.
"And here's what is wrong. To some people in this nation, that kind of a leader is god-like. Not really just one of us. A rock star. Lightworker. Their daydream."
There's more of this bullshit, but Friedman, the good "Christian," concludes his tirade of character-assassination (all in the names of God and goodness and Jesus, you know) by saying:
"It no doubt surprises some theological 'progressives' that there are still people who believe in devils. Less astonishing is the fact that many of us recognize the reality of political devils..."
Well, Mr. Friedman, you might be surprised that you don't fool us theological "progressives."
We've read your work and we recognize the devil when we see him!

What if Obama was selected by God to lead the nation and the world? Bush was selected and we are not too pleased. God moves in mysterious ways his wonders to perform. Maybe the Devil fooled Bush into thinking it was God telling him to get rid of Saddam. How can we know which it was?
In the meantime, I shall have to imagine that both candidates are mere humans and subject to the vagaries of many other humans.
