Kay also reported that Keyes called Obama a "socialist and a liar" on a cable access news show on Monday. Obama said he wants to win big to give Keyes a spanking because Keyes wages a scorched earth campaign. Keyes then went into a very long analysis of the word "spanking" and suggested it might be related to slavery and insulting to African- Americans. He would not answer when asked directly if he was insulted.

Reporters also pointed out that Obama had said Bobby Rush had spanked Obama in the Congressional race when Obama ran against Rush in 2000. Obama said Tuesday night it was tongue-in-cheek and that everyone knows he wants to win the race for working people. He also said no one has run a more positive campaign than he.

Keyes, who has focused his campaign on abortion, said that his statement about whom Jesus would vote for was based on Obama's pro-choice votes in the Illinois Senate.

"Christ would not stand idly by while an infant child in that situation died," Keyes said. "And I'm not the only person, obviously, who thinks if you are a representative of me, I cannot vote for you if you would ignore the dignity and claims of that child's life. So, yes, I did respond quite logically -- you'll see it's quite logical, right -- with the conclusion that Christ would not vote for Barack Obama, because Barack Obama has voted to behave in a way that it is inconceivable for Christ to have behaved."

Hey! I think I just saw Jesus Christ at the polling booth! Wow, it looks like he voted for Hillary, I guess I'll become an atheist now.

1. I did not know that Jesus expressed any politcal preferences aside from Render unto Caesar

I do know that he had a great deal to say about our duty to help the poor. What would that make him?

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

2. This news is from 2004. The reference to Keyes running against Obama should have been a clue.

I'm not sure what relevance it has now.

I'm not sure what relevance Keyes has had at ANY time, or if anyone ever actually listens to this guy or cares what he says, aside from maybe Jon Stewart because it gives such fodder for his show.

[Edweird]

3. I think it's pretty safe to say that christ would find ALL politicians unworthy.

[C_U_L8R]

4. Where's that Good Old Testament God

to make Alan Keyes tongue rot out for such sanctimonious bullshit

[NNN0LHI]

5. These fanatics slay me n/t

[LynnTheDem]

6. But "lock & load" Christ would vote for the bush regime & their

illegal invasion of a nation that hadn't threatened us, hadn't attacked us, hadn't in fact been doing a damn thing against anyone...

Republics; stupidest MFers ever.

[tanyev]

7. They better make Jesus present photo ID 'cause I don't think he's a citizen of the U.S.

[uppityperson]

18. That was my thought also

[trumad]

8. I'm guessing Alan never had Jesus's vote either

during all his Presidential runs.

[Philosoraptor]

9. Vote for me, Jesus did.

Would also have accepted, 'vote for me, I don't believe in evolution'.

[deutsey]

10. Well, Christ is omniscient, right? Therefore, he already knows who will win

so why would he bother to vote?

:evilgrin:

[Philosoraptor]

11. He could use an absentee ballot.

But why vote when you know the outcome? Ask a horse racing fan.

[deutsey]

12. I figured, too, that being disembodied and all might be a factor

I mean, I've worked as an election judge before and I would question the legitimacy of a voter who floats in to the polling station as a disembodied spirit.

[bluerum]

13. Keyes has not swallowed his own head yet? eom

[Philosoraptor]

14. .............

[Warren DeMontague]

15. Alan Keyes also says that that Earth Creature has stolen his illudium p-32 space modulator.

[Cha]

16. But Christ would vote for

the fucker alan keyes?

[mudesi]

17. It's a good thing Christ isn't around anymore

Honestly, why do people let others decide their vote?

[Kelly Rupert]

19. Socialist?! Everyone knows Jesus hated sharing. n/t

[Left Hook]

20. Christ would never vote.....

period. I never believed that Jesus would be into politics at all.

[MODemocrat]

21. Alan Keyes wouldn't know his own ass from a hole in the ground

Since when does Christ discuss politics? Keys sounds as if he is as dumb as a rock for even making a remark like that. :+ :evilfrown: :mad: :eyes: :spank:

I don't like the cheap shots at Obama or Hillary just because they happen to be very intelligent.

[Pyrzqxgl]

22. He probably knows Christ isn't registered.

[tabasco]

23. No doubt! Everybody knows Jesus is against estate taxes!

He's got a really big inheritance coming someday.
