Wasn't Jesus a community organizer?

Then it cannot be such a bad thing to be. Without an organized community there is no world.

It's kind of a funny point to make too. For one thing, it hits the Republicans where they live: Jesus. They are all Jesus all the time, so that's gotta piss 'em off that they didn't think about it before they started mouthing off.

And for another thing, it drives them absolutely batshit crazy when Obama supporters talk about Jesus because they think we worship him or something. So comparing the work of Jesus and Obama is sure to drive them right up the wall. And that's just good fun.

Jesus a community organizer?
Next the Democrats will try to make you believe that Jesus wasn't white.

Meanwhile, civic knowledge is enhanced by discussing public affairs, taking part in civic activities and reading about current events and history, the group said.


Which is why we have P & R!

Saul Alinsky was a great man. Don't denegrate him. At least he did things to help the world, unlike people who just spout nonsense.

You're right. Its not an actual petition in thetrue sense of the word, but it is an effort to draw attention to Palin's remarks. The more comments, the more media attention.

that's groovy. a petition would be nice, though, just to show her how many people were not amused by her an guiliani's statements (and how is HE getting off the hook for being much meaner in his comments???).

No. Jesus was not a community organizer.
Jesus was about servanthood, and would never have run for political office.

This is getting desperate and quite entertaining.
This post must have been started after people realized the 'GREAT OBAMA ORATORY" receivable a minimal, and unsustainable, bounce.

running for political office is not implicit in taking on the mantle of a community organizer. and are you saying they don't serve their community?

To assert that a community organizer in modern politics and servanthood the that Jesus taught and lived are intrensic is ambitious and likely naive.

I'm sure community organizers do good things, but I am not sure I have enough faith in Barack Obama to believe that for one minute he did it for anything but his own career.

2 memoirs.....no laws/legislation...132 'present' votes. Sounds pretty self-serving to me.

That is one thing you cannot confuse with Jesus

I guess it can't be both helping others and helping your career?
It's why I come to work everyday.
