I am waiting for Obama to start blaming the Jews for everything.

Is there anything on that list you care to dispute?

Jesus. Though Jerusalem didn't have stadiums, he drew a big crowd at the beach and on an olive hill.
* An uninspiring background before meteoric rise - Check
Jesus. With the exception of his 12-year old temple trip, he came out of nowhere.
* Creates his own new symbols of power - Check
Jesus.
* Associates with racists, hatemongers and violent radicals - Check
Hitler. Though Jesus mingled with the controversial, the adultress had nothing on Nazis.
* A propaganda machine willing to show him only in the best possible light - Check
Hitler. Jesus was ratted out by a disciple and one of his most trusted denied him three times.
* Uses, “glorious leader” style Agitprop posters common in totalitarian nations - Check (see German campaign poster for example)
Hitler. The literature didn't come out for some time after Jesus was gone.
* Wants Secret Police force - Check
Hitler, unless you count the Danites.
* Somebody powerful people think they can control - Check
Jesus. A lot of people have been wielding Jesus for illicit purposes.
* Often dismissed as a light-weight by his opponents - Check
Jesus. Boy did they underestimate him.
* Seeks to replace God with the State - Check
Hitler. Give Jesus credit for recognizing the difference between God and Government.
* People adopting his name as their own - Check
Jesus. Everybody has met a Jesus.
* Inspires adoration art - Check
Jesus in a landslide.
* Appropriates symbols of past German glory - Check
Hitler. I don't believe Germany was around in 0 A.D., but I could be wrong.
* Never plans on giving up power - Check (Obama to be president for the next “eight to 10 years”)
Jesus. Eternity is a long time.
* A narcissistic megalomaniac - Check
Hitler. Jesus wanted to give honor to the Father.
* Brazenly Takes credit for other people’s accomplishments - Check
Hitler. Jesus just wants credit for his accomplishments.
* Wants to build “youth” movement through State service - Check
Hitler. Jesus just uses EFY.
* Acts as if in power before he is - Check
Hitler. Jesus first saw John the Baptist before he acted in his role.
* Some followers believe him to be divine - Check
Jesus. In a landslide.
* Worshiped and aided greatly by the media - Check
Hitler.

Frightened yet?
Hitler -11
Jesus -9

There we have it. Barack Obama is Hitler by a nose. I am officially frightened.

I don't know- Jesus has been worshiped and aided by the media too. The Bible and the Book of Mormon have to combine for the most book readings of all time. Plus, you have Fox News out there. I give that one to Jesus.

10-10. It is a coin toss. Tex was almost right- Obama is half Messiah, half Hitler. An odd mix, but he can bring back the Jews immediately after killing them. Not too shabby.
