"Jesus was a community organizer, Pontius Pilate was a governor."

OK....how am I supposed to go down the road of there NOT being some form of messiah complex when this is being repeated?
It would depend entirely on who is repeating it, and why.

For the record, I have never seen Obama as a "messiah", just as someone who cares more about this country and its citizens than the Republicans.
