Barack Obama to Swear into Office on Homosexual Atheist's Bible
Well, it seems to be official. Barack Obama will be taking the Oath of Office on January 20, 2009, with his right hand planted firmly on the Bible owned by a man who neither believed in a personal god nor preferred the company of women in the bedroom.
That's right. He somehow managed to score the same Bible on which fellow Illinoisiate Abraham Lincoln was sworn in as president…
"President-elect Obama is deeply honored that the Library of Congress has made the Lincoln Bible available for use during his swearing-in," said Presidential Inaugural Committee Executive Director Emmett Beliveau.
"The President-elect is committed to holding an Inauguration that celebrates America's unity, and the use of this historic Bible will provide a powerful connection to our common past and common heritage."
Such a thumbing of the nose at all the good old fashioned family values on which this country was founded will almost certainly come as a blow to all the decent Americans who were hoping that anti-gay rights Christian Pastor Rick Warren's prayer at the inauguration was a signal to their ranks that he would be continuing the current administration's policy of coddling them.
No such luck. By deliberately choosing the Bible of Abraham Lincoln — a man who, if not an absolute homosexual, certainly had strong homosexual leanings, and who believed in neither the Bible nor a personal god — Obama seems to be giving aid and comfort to the enemies of American values.
The day seems to belong to the degenerate heathen sodomites.
Update: Reading through the comments to this post, it occurs to me that yet another tired old stereotype has now been laid to rest…
Liberals are no better at interpreting satire than conservatives are.
Cold, empty, meaningless universe bless America.

On a scale of (low) 0 – 10 (high) on the fun-o-meter this rates at about a 2 for sheer idiocy.
It is just a plain malicious lie. The Bible that former president Abe Lincoln used to swear alligence to the United States of America and Uphold the Constitution Thereof, is not, nor has it ever been in any way associated with either hederosexuality or same sex matters. And, it is just a plain misstatement of facts to say that President Lincoln was a homosexual. As for President-elect Barak Obama, he is a Christian man. As a devout Christian, he is a heterosexual man!
There is an element in our country, sad to say, who practice DIVIDE AND CONQUER, the same theology as radical muslims. The characters who flew four commercial airplanes on 9/11, two into the twin towers World Trade Center in New York City, one into the Pentagon and one that was brought down by a few brave passangers on board, in a field in Ohio. They will stop at nothing in order to discredit the object of their hate; complete fabrications is one of their favorite tools! This is another one of their hate 'crimes'!
Dear GMP:
Writing satire is in fact analogous to flying a plane into buildings and killing thousands of innocent people. I could not agree more with you sir. I'm a visiting professor at Harvard University focussing primarily on international politics and the effects on the gay community. I post this comment in the hopes you will return for I would like to read a thesis on that which you have brilliantly posited here. That takes courage.
No more than thirty pages please if you would like the editors to consider your thesis for publication in our journal. Comment back here and I will post my email address in hopes we can contact soon. Please be more specific as to how you think this article is the functional equivalent of specific acts of the terrorism you refer to. As an example, how would you say Mr. DiClaudio used box cutters in this so-called "satirical" piece. I look forward to your reply.
Best wishes and Merry Christmas.

it isnt even funny.
whats wrong with you????
Obama is a Christian and has a wife.
His swearing on Abe means he admire him
I am an Algerian and I think highly of ABraham Lincoln.
Your post sound racist and meaningless.
What if the news about this Lincoln bible was not communicated to the public? what would you come out with to demonize Obama?
I realize this was intended as satire, but how many knew that Lincoln was essentially the USA's first dictator, declaring martial law and even placing under house arrest a Supreme Court Justice who sought to prosecute him?
I think the North and her historians intentionally got it just a little twisted when they wrote the history books subsequent to the civil war.
See this blog, http://lincolntruth.blogdrive.com/ for more info on Lincoln. They have a great article "Does Obama's Love of Lincoln Make Him an 'Uncle Tom'?" but go to their archives for the real dirt on just who this very racist president "Honest Abe" Lincoln and why the South really wanted to secede… a hint… it was hardly just slavery nor was slavery even a tertiary cause of the conflict.
one for the road:
"I will say, then, that I am not nor have ever been in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the black and white races—that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with White people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the White and black races which will ever FORBID the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together, there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I, as much as any other man, am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the White race."

Whether Lincoln was or was not: He didn't write the bible that Obama is using. That particular bible doesn't have contagious germs that will kill or make any one homosexual or not homosexual for that matter. People! there are more issues that need our attention than the fact of who own that bible. We have to get our country back on track and it will happen if we get together as a country and move forward. We waste so much time on things that really don't help us and we have to find solutions for our country now!
Nice one. But really, a bible shouldn't be used at all in any swearing in ceremony for government office. May as well "swear in" on a Disney DVD or some other fiction.
Could be worse, Dennis. You could have make a funny about the Mason's bible. Oooh then there would have been hell to pay!
