What does this mean? Bumpersticker - Matthew was right 14:11 Nobama
I googled Matthew 14 11 & this is what came up

His head was brought in on a platter and given to the girl, who carried it to her mother.


What were these people trying to say??? I just looked at them at with one of these :shrug:

Oh - it was on the back of a SUV. Middle-aged couple.

And can someone explain to me how someone can use verses in the bible to mean harm to the President of the United States?

1. I think I've seen something like that here in red, red Georgia
I never read the Bible and had no clue...but that is weird.

us to come rescue you?

5. Maybe I should get a bumpersticker that says Matthew 14:11 NOBREWER
Only problem is that I don't know what it means :)

I love my state, especially this time of year. Az is so beautiful.
But - if they take away my daughter's healthcare, I just might have to :(

24. Bwah! Brilliant! I don't know what it means either, though.
I don't know where it would be better for your daughter if it comes to that, but I'm betting there isn't any other State that's as bad!

I bet it's beautiful - I always think of it being beautiful all year long.

25. Texas is talking about cutting medicaid too. You talk about death panels.
:cry: :cry:

If they do that here in Az, I don't know what's going to happen to my daughter. It seems so inhumane.

27. Didn't I hear that Brewer was given Fed funds for medical stuff and she turned
it down, now I heard her saying "I think these people should go to the Federal Government and ask for money" - Our whole country is going insane.

There will be somebody some way to help your daughter. Don't worry about something that hasn't happened yet, and might not happen at all. :hug:

Sounds like a threat against the President to me.

6. The 14 was before the 11. Either one, I don't understand what they were trying to say.
If they were calling him Elijah - that's a good thing. But it said NoBama at the bottom.

7. So they're saying that Obama is John the Baptist?
Or maybe they're just saying that Obama should be decapitated. It's near impossible to tell when they take one verse out of it's context and apply it to some random thing that only they understand.

9. Maybe they are trying to communicate to other wackos that he's a Baptist, not a Muslim?
I don't know :P
These wackos keep getting wackier.

19. Judging by the sentiment, I'd argue that the owners are Baptists.
and that they perceive Obama as an enemy.

Oddly enough, it seems the Book of Matthew is the one most ignored by the fundie types--it's full of admonitions against hypocrites, those who loudly and publicly proclaim their faith, and the moneychangers in the temple.

11. That's exactly what they mean....
Decapitate president Obama...

figure a freeper would fixate on one of the most violent events in the New Testament.

8. What would any red blooded American be without a personal
boogey man to drive him towards salvation. IMHO there are many Americans who have been poisoned beyond saving by Faux Snooze and their political heroes.

10. The Story of Salome
Edited on Tue Dec-14-10 09:27 PM by Demeter
John the Baptist insulted her mother, so she seduces her step-father with the dance of the 7 veils to kill John and give her his head.

I can't see any tie-in to Obama....but then again, I'm not batshit, either.

Can't even begin "who is who" in this allusion.

On second thought, and with further research, this is probably Birther nonsense, tying into the thought that Obama's father wasn't a Kenyen, but an American activist...and his mother was palming the kid off on the African she married.

13. "The Merchant of Venice" Act I, Scene III - William Shakespeare
Edited on Tue Dec-14-10 09:51 PM by DemoTex
ANTONIO:

Mark you this, Bassanio,
The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.
An evil soul producing holy witness
Is like a villain with a smiling cheek,
A goodly apple rotten at the heart:
O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!



The Gospel Luke says, basically, the same thing. So, to answer your question, it means whatever their small minds think it means. And I doubt that they really keep up with either Will Shakespeare or the Gospel Luke.

14. Did they change lanes without using
their indicator, while the driver was on the mobile?

28. Palin As Salome?
Bit of a stretch, although she's bloodthirsty enough....way too long in the tooth, though.

18. I think it might have been 24:11...about false prophets deceiving many.
Personally, I think false profits are deceiving many.

20. Self identifying as insane, a cry for help? Off the top of my head.
FWIW I resent lunatics impinging on my policy disagreements.

21. Think this could be reference to John the Baptist who's head was served up on a silver plater after
his execution. This is reference to execution. I would have had to turn them in for their supporting killing our President by whomever may do that out of some group think. They are nuts. Hope you didn't get to close.

22. From what I can find mucking about with the insane and religous...
This is about Obama, the end times, and how he is the Anti-Christ who will bring about the Rapture.

These people are creepy.
