Jesus, was not a community organizer, He was a Teacher. Look in the bible and see how many times you find community organizer. And how dare Cohen compare Obama to ” Jesus “

Other wildly successful community organizers:

Benito Mussolini
Adolph Hitler
Vladimir Lenin
Leon Trotsky
Joseph Stalin
Mao Tse-tung
Kim Il-Sung

We could keep adding to the list.

I am shocked that a Politician would compare Obama to Jesus Christ. Mr. Cohen is obviously lacking any real knowledge of the life of Jesus Christ.

I am sure of one thing that Jesus would not allow the murder of the unborn babies that Obama so willing supports up to 9 months and born alive!

Abortion is surely not in line with anything Jesus Christ would stand for! Obama is a mockery of Jesus Christ.

OBama is more like the Anti Christ.

Obama spent 20 years with Rev. Wright and anyone that knows the word of God knows that Mr. Rev. Wright is not following God. Rev. Wright is hateful and angry man that tears apart anything good and right.

Obama is self serving and America will be in serious trouble if people elect Obama! Only God can help us then.

Steve Cohen is a career politician with a J.D. and a million-dollar stock portfolio. Yet, he seems to have a screw loose. Take a look at him SHOVING a journalist: LINK

Cohen is about a week late. That line was among the Romper Rumor Talking Points long ago.

Isn’t a member of the PTA a community organizer? Far more so, I would have thought than somebody who is appointed from outside to do the work.

If I may synthesize a response to this that I saw at NRO’s “Corner” and several other blogs, the meme is scripturally bankrupt, because Christians acclaim Jesus as priest, prophet, and king. He is also (of course), rabbi and — as Peter answers for himself and the other 11 apostles in response to the question from Jesus Himself — Lord.

If there was a “community organizer” in the early church, it was Paul.

As for Pilate being used to cast aspersions on governors two millennia later, well, Pilate voted “present” rather than “yes” or “no” when it counted, and who does THAT remind you of?

They might want to try listening to what she actually said. She did not put down community organizers. She did exactly what Obama has been doing, talking about his original job (in the way he keeps saying she was mayor of a small town.) And frankly, from what I’ve read of his work as a community organizer, the only thing he seems good at is organizing. He sure didn’t accomplish much with the Anneberg funds.

In case anyone’s interested, I put together a brief examination of the “Jesus was a community organizer” school of thought on my blog referencing a book devoted to the subject.

Without Pontius Pilate, there would have been no Resurrection. Everyone has a part to play, people shouldn’t demonize governors.
