What The Hell Is Wrong With People?

February 21st, 2009 at 8:50 pm by Preston Taylor Holmes

There is some serious mental illness and stupidity out among the population. The Obamessiah more popular than Jesus? Sure, we have fun calling President Hussein everything from Obamessiah to Urkel Christ to a variety of other names, but this poll demonstrates how detached from reality the idiots in the hopey changey crowd actually are.

John Lennon once claimed the Beatles were more popular than Jesus. Now President Obama has evidence that he’s more popular than both.

Obama topped a new Harris interactive poll that asked 2,634 Americans who they admire enough to call a hero.

Jesus came in second on a list that includes God, Mahtma Gandhi and George Washington.

Other historic or notable figures making the top 10 were Martin Luther King Jr., Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush, Abraham Lincoln, John McCain, John F. Kennedy, U.S. Airways pilot Chesley Sullenberger and Mother Teresa.

Participants named the heroes randomly instead of being shown or read a list of people to choose from. The poll was conducted online between January 12 and 19, 2009.

I have to wonder where Harris interactive found this bucket of losers. Then again, there are 54+ million of them out there. Probably wasn’t too difficult.

    Yo. Holmes… Like I always find myself saying, “i’m surrounded by f@#$!n’ idiots!” Well, I have said that… once or twice. Honestly, our nation is over-run by a proportionately substantial cadre of lazy minds that upload every emotion and idea by way of a tabloid wi-fi connection.

    The end is all kinds of nigh.

    The Jesus that most people have heard about is nothing like the real Jesus. Come to think of it, that’s surely true of Barry Houssein as well.

  4. J David Says:

    Of that “top ten” list there is Jesus(crucified), MLK jr(shot), Lincoln(shot), John Lennon(shot), Ronald Reagan(shot, but too tough to die)…If I was the ‘Bamster I think I’d consider taking it down a notch or two.
