Very funny...Go Obama

Amelia, Global Village, Globe

ditto. April Cornelius, I have been wondering same thing myself. I'm not a church person, but I remember reading a verse in the Bible that said; " And he seduced the masses with his words". This was refering to the Anti-christ. It gives me the creeps especially since the media protects him so much.

pepito, miami, usa

i am so saddenned to see our great country reduced to sheep being led to slaughter. You are electing a president folks, look at the records, look at the associations, Get your heads out of the cool aid jug and wake up! This country will be torn apart and the money is already leaving our shores

john, boca raton, usa

Oh, Mr. Baker - this would have me in stitches...were I a Brit. As it is, it has me nearly in tears! You cannot know how accurately you have caught the tenor of the American media. "O" is quite a speaker. I just wish voters would remember we are not hiring a speaker, but electing a president.

Caral, SoCalif, USA

Are you seriously speaking of Obama as if he is Jesus? I am somewhat dumbfounded after having read this.
Is Obama the Anti-Christ? Many have raised this point and I myself, espceially after having read this article which praises him as he is God himself, truly wonder.
I pray God be with us.

April, Cornelius,

If he isn't elected, we all are in peril due to the riots that have been instructed by the Child. We are damned if we do and also damned if the Child doesn't win.

Cheryl, Gulf Breeze, USA

Mr. Baker,

Kudos. You made me smile during a time that a smile seemed the most impossible of feats.

May I ask? What happens when the villein realize that the Child cannot turn water into wine?

Lisa, Connecticut, United State of America

""If he is elected, he will be assassinated by some heroic American Patriot.....perhaps sooner?""

Does anyone else see how insane this is, or is it just me? Free speech and stupidity are not synonomous.

Christian, Oklahoma City, USA

Remember, this is the guy who just a few years ago said it would be irresponsible to apply for job that he wasn't qualified for. (Obama saying he wouldn't persue the presidency) He needs his big voice and big useless words to prop up the vacuum of a career and pool of knowlege he has not.

Joe, Durham, USA

If he is elected, he will be assassinated by some heroic American Patriot.....perhaps sooner?

Thomas Jefferson, Chicago, USA

Yes, please pray for the USA if Obama gets into office. I am really worried about what is going to happen to our country if this radical (Obama) gets into office.

Mickie, Chillicothe, USA

I love the satyre! If there are praying people on your side of the pond, please pray for us. Obama and what he represents has some of us really worried. His type of salvation will kill the USA; he will finish her.

Pat Ashcraft, Lonoke, USA

I think that whoever wrote this, as tony the tiger says " It's Great "

tammy, kalamazoo, usa

I was going to spend my vacation exploring my British routes.
Was.

Annette Patterson, Jacksonville, Duval

On our side of the pond, only a small percentage truly believe the media garbage; watch the Hwood propaganda films; watch the Emmys or Oscars or Bill Maher. The victories of the diciples and the annointed one are all orchestrated and stolen. The votes are not real and they prevent reform.

Jeneria Lewis, South Padre Island , United States

Sirrah Gerald, even J. Swift would be proud!
However,have you forgotten the Great O of AAron
annointed by Soros and his disciple Daly
to hold up the messiah's hands that are even now
maliciously (oops!) miraculously dividing the Red Sea.
You are assuredly the "Swift boat" the GOP needs.

Sarah Sawyer, Dothan, Alalbama, USA

Thank god for the brains of the British. The gulliable Americans are voting for this anti-Christ and corrupt Chicago leader and the media bar fox (Thank god for Prophet Rupert) are aiding and abetting his endeavor. God bless America!!
Hooray for Hollywood -- and Axelrod & Obama.

Josie Walker, Winnetka, IL, USA

Loved this - I wish more journalists wrote stuff like this, but they're too busy following the "Oh, great one!"

Jeff Webber, New York, NY, USA

I loved reading the piece - it's everything a great piece of satire should be. I am, however, terrified by the comments. As a American living abroad, I have finally come to the conclusion that most Americans don't have a CLUE about the impact of our political process on the rest of the world...

Susan, Veliko Turnovo, Bulgaria

A very intersting story and you put it very well. The "child" has been spreading false stories about McCain and his tribes on the South side of Chicago began singing osana to him. Also,he told the media that he was putting Bill Clinton on work as if he is the Master . Funny very very.

V.Menon, Chicago, USA

I think it was spot on. God save the Queen.

J. R. Shull, North Myrtle Beach, S.C. U.S.A.

j r shull, north myrtle beach, u.s.a.

My favorite part was when you told your sources. Isn't it the truth. lol

Loved it,

Nan, H. USA USA USA All the way

NAN HERR, ATLANTA, USA

The story may be clever and funny to some; but personally I feel, and think it shows disrespect to both God and those who love His Son. Yes, I realize the point of it and I agree with the point of the article; but still do not like the way it was made. Just a fyi.

Pat, Bertha, US

I am concerned that the satrire in thios story is lost on 1/2 the voting population in the US. They (and the fawning media "intellectual elites") are two busy bolstering the deeply engrained guilt that has been driven into our national psyche for over 40 years to see the humor and parody.

Tom, Atlanta, USA

I personally think that this country is going down the toilet and Obama is the Ty-d-bowl man.

Ammy, Peoria, USA

Nick Brown said that Obama would be elected PM of the UK by a country mile. I propose that the UK take Obama and save us the horror that will follow if, God forbid, he is elected our President. Before you jump at this offer, please read up on what Jimmy Carter did to our country. Obama is worse.

Blaine Bonnell, Bear Lake, United States of America

I'd like to congratulate Gerard Baker on keeping the art of satire alive. What a pleasure to read his opinion piece! Here in America, we are far too serious and far too determined not to notice that Obama is black. In any case, I echo the feelings of Roxanna from Phoenix.

Jan, Cincinnati, OH, USA

Does anyone know if there is any truth to the rumor that Obama had the American flag removed from this jet on his trip to Europe?

Lisa, Alpharetta, GA,

If Obama were up for UK prime minister, he'd win by a country mile over any politician here. It's inspiring that he's still in the running against a political machine only slightly less nasty than ZanuPF. If he wins it will restore faith in USA.

Nick Brown, London, UK

I would like to know how Obama can lead Americans when he is embarrassed to be one?

Roxanna, Phoenix, USA

This was very funny and very nice to see Obama didn't fool anyone. I read an article about his speech in Germany and how people walked away basically saying "What the Hell was that Guy talking about?" Scary thing is, there are enough idiots in this country that have swallowed his tripe.

Richard, Santa Ana, CA. , USA

Well Done....You know I actually think the Obama lemmings hear the heavenly choir singing when they see him take the stage.

Dean, Cincinnati, USA

it's sad the average american moron doesn't see in the guy what a Brit can from across the pond.

Owen J. Lawson, Reno, USA

As a vile, vicious, corrupt Republican monster, I say study the history of the end of WWI and see how Mr. Wilson was received in Europe as the Second Coming only to be shot down by us, the vile, vicious, corrupt Republican monsters. He ended in sadness
because he forgot that Europeans have no votes

Ronald Scribner, Colorado Springs, CO , United States

Few people are aware of this unique aspect of the 2008 presidential race; it marks, for the first time, that both parties supported the same candidate.

Angelo

Angelo Fragapane, Lawrenceville,

This is funny, but only because it's a Brit writing rather than, say, Anne Coulter. I'd have lost my sense of humor if I'd had to live in the US for the last decade, when the vile, vicious, corrupt Republican monster has shredded civil debate.

Nick Brown, London, UK

People sometimes claim erroneously that Americans can't understand irony. However Melanie in Nashville definitely can't understand sarcasm, that much is true.

Andrew, Abu Dhabi,

That was awesome--it sounded prophetic!

May I ask if there's chapter 2?

Victor, Los Angeles, USA

No one can do humor as well as the Brittish!

Tom Allen, Brandon, USA

You can't blame us for hoping that B. Hussein Obama would be the candidate of change - we just didn't know he was going to do it every three or four days.

Great bit of writing, keep it up then.

Bruce Jones, Los Angeles, USA

I love it, someone not afraid to make fun of the supposed great one.

Fred, Miamisburg, USA

Obama is the incarnate of all narcissism. But he can fix that too.

lance, highlands ranch , usa

This was really humorous and a very enjoyable read!

MaryAnn Capps, Allen, USA

Brilliant!

Silvia F. Penichet, key Biscayne, USA

Let a sense of humor put all things in perspective. Amen. D from the colonies

nigisha, newport,

I may be mistaken, but when writing in this style, isn't it traditional to be far less factual.

Matt, Antibes, France

Elissa "2 Peter 3:15-17)" Read it again. YOu will see that it tells you that this text has been carefully selected to indoctrinate people in order to enlarge the power base. It is a warning not to change the text or you will be considered a thinker and therefore must be destroyed.

Matt, Antibes, France

A Con mans greatest tool is charm..Obama exudes it plus he's a lawyer.
I shudder for the future.

Robert W. Bell, New York, USA

Hasn't "Private Eye" been doing (a much funnier version) of this for years ?

Esther, London,

There is an old prediction the USA to be demolished at time of 44th president. It looks like Obama is assuming the historical role.

Alexey, Moscow,

Excellently biting satire, Mr. Gerard Baker. I will dare opine that you outdid Rush Limbaugh's "Barack the Magic Negro" as the funniest piece of mockery of Barack Obama I have yet seen in this presidential election.

C.A. Cornejo, Missouri City, Texas, USA

Utter and complete brilliance! I laughed so hard!

jake, redlands, united states

What a brilliant indictment of our American "media". This article was spot on, and too funny for words!

Angela, Los Angeles, USA

You fill the void for an internatinal turncoat.

Fred, Tucson, AZ, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

This is marvelous satire and brought a good laugh!

"For all you Brits who wonder how Bush got re-elected, some of the above comments should clear up the mystery."

John, Huntington, NY, USA

Well-written and funny piece - brilliant comment !

angel , blackpool,

Consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation...as in all (Paul's) epistles,...which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures. Beware, brethren, lest you also fall being led away with the error of the wicked (2 Peter 3:15-17)

Elissa, Mount Horeb, USA

Of course we all know what happens to the holy one.

bernie, carmarthen, wales

HILARIOUS!!!

Totally brightened up my day!!!

Sophy, Birmingham - West Mids, UK

I can not watch Senator Obama without thinking of the 1968 (I think) movie "Rosemary's Baby". His life seems to follow the plot of the movie. Question of the day, "Is Senator Obama the second coming of Rosemary's Baby??? Should watch movie before voting?

Robert, Oklahoma City, United States

Whats even funnier than the article is all the serious comments........maybe its difficult to understand British humour and irony?

Carol, Leicester, UK

how amusing - hat's off :-)

sophia, Brighton,

This is just ridiculous. I've never seen a bigger load of you know what as Obama. I pray with all my heart that he is not our next President, and fear for our nation if it ends up being part of God's plan.

Melanie, Nashville, TN, USA

How blind can you possibly be Obama is NOT the right choice for our country. If you think we've lost rights as American's just wait and watch. We said the Pledge of Alegence every day in school now it's NEVER said. WHY? Think about People. It's not hard to figure out just no one is saying it.

Lynn, Lake, U.S.A

Why do I have a feeling that IF obama becomes president ALOT of REAL Americans will be Imigrating to England?
I really am scared for the future of this country.
GOD help us ALL

Lynn, Big Lake, USA

This is almost news that stays news. Hilarious, and to the point, for as long as one cares to read. I'm a big Obama supporter, and I'm a big supporter of whoever wrote this article. (Don't respond with the name please I'm not THAT interested.)

Brian, South Lake Tahoe, USA

He definitely impresses me, as he fits so well into the enclave of American Politicians (World Politicians of similiar ilk included). Even greater than did Houdini, they all have proven that they are indeed what they appear not to be. Obama, like the Pied Piper, draws them like flies.

Jim Kimbrough, Goodwater, AL, USA

BRIT WIT AT ITS BEST. THIS PIECE SAYS IT ALL -- and to continue in the "biblical" vein: woe betide a society that falls for the false prophet Obama and his empty rhetoric.

Margaret Shinar, London,

He doesn't impress me. As far as that goes, the "DO NOTHING CONGRESS" doesn't impress me either. Talk, talk, talk,. And the press, ha! You don't fool me either. We all see what they are trying to do and it will take more than that to get all of us to roll over and play dead

Sharron Hintz, simi valley, USA

Starts well, but goes on too long and becomes rather artificial and strained by the end.

Tony Hubbard, Oxford, UK

Sounds pretty good. Maybe things will finally get better! :)

Newmans, Amherst, US

"I won't wear that pin upon my chest". My grandmother "was a typical white woman". Then not placing his hand over his heart during the national anthem? This is a person (after 143 days in congress) you want for president? He DOESN'T have the experience ! Don't you get it?

Keith , Seattle, United States of America

Two things; why no "apologies to Private Eye" who have been doing this slant for years on topical subjects? Second, why isn't anybody asking why Obama is there in the first place? This is simply because he is sanctioned by the Daly clan, without which his rise would not have been momentous.

Ian SISLEY, Las Cruzes, NM,

This was great! The comments generated are even better, except for the fawning ones. Glad to see some perspective, and not the U.S. elect-Obama news media (aka. ABC, CBS, and NBC)

Richard Cranium, Snyder, USA

What we need now is for Paul Shanklin to do a parody of Neil Diamond's "Brother Loves Travelin Salvation Show."

Alan Rettig, DeBary Fl, USA

Very Funny,
W is a piker compared to Obama were ego is concerned. Nice to see not every journalist has imbibed the Kool-Aid.

Rick Walker, Columbus, U.S.A.

Joseph Goebbels of the Hitler regime said that if you tell a lie long enough, soon it will appear as truth. How sad that many have come to believe the "truths" of the media. The only truth that has stood the test of time and will stand forever is the Word of God. That is where I'll stake my claim!

Sherrie, Independence, KY, USA

This is stellar! A perfect satire of the image of Barack HUSSEIN Obama that the media has been trying to paint.

Cheers to Mr. Baker for a job well done!

Joseph Brown, New Boston, MI, USA

For all you Brits who wonder how Bush got re-elected, some of the above comments should clear up the mystery.

John, Huntington, NY, USA

I am assuming that this is satire, any other inturpritation would threaten to cause me to loose hope for humanity.

John Taylor You probably think that Iran would stop persuing Nukler weapons if only Israel would get rid of theirs. That would be like the US, at the height of the cold war in the

RIchard Smith, Saint Louis, USA

What's the true meaning of this election?That Dewey's plan of the A H A of the early 20th century has worked to destroy faith in Jesus Chris in the U.S.,the:"that the classrooms will become the new churches, that the teachers, the new preachers in the schools" Hence, no critical thinking skills.

C. Moak, San Antonio, US

If he erects a statue of himself somewhere and people bow down, we will really be concerned.

Martha , Clyde, USA

Get a grip. This article just goes to show what a distorted view of reality that people in the democratic party have concerning this election and world outside of our borders. talk about naive and just plain stupid. It also show's their complete lack of respect for the Bible and it's message.

Mark Nickel, Oklahoma City, USA

Why are we dwelling on Muslim terrorists. No major attacks since 2001 and even the perpetrators of this are in question. You are listening to a globalist speech. Want to get rid of nuclear weapons in the middle east; start with Israel.

John Taylor , Miami, USA

What a classic.! Step aside, Shakespeare!

Wayen Jenkins, Louisville, USA

Cute!

Finally we can have some fun with this election business.

Politics needs to be FUN!

Mike Sevcik, Tama, Iowa, USA

Thank you so much for your blessed satire. Right on target. Kudos!

I wonder... are you getting any blowback from your fellow journalists for breaking ranks and poking a little fun at the chosen one?

Sara, Arlington MA, U.S.A.

The article was great.

meg, Mobile, America

brilliant !!

Daniel Wohlgelernter, Los Angeles, United States

this was absolutely the best commentary I have read quite possibly ever. I laughed out loud and sent it to everyone I know.
So witty, so smart, an excellent example of why I always read the UK press before anything written over here.

Ann, Madison, USA

Guys don't be pathetic. This is one of the classic pieces.

Compare it with nothing.

Enjoy it.

traps, Johannesburg, South Africa

Truth moves hearts and inspires the hope of something better.

Chris, London,

Barrack Obama is not Jesus nor Hitler, he lacks the experience to be either one. He even lacks the experience or wisdom to be President, but then that didn't stop George W. Bush either and look what we got.

Barrack Obama is really the second term of Jimmy Carter, who will bring back gas shortages..

John Proust, Neuralberg,

"Would you please stop making fun of Jesus? This was hard to read without becoming angry. Obama is not Jesus, for those of you who don't know!

Rachel, Montgomery, AL, United States"

Who says Americans don't 'do' irony? Wonderful stuff.

Ryan, London,

This is winging along on the internet over here! Absolutely great article!

Katy, Victoria, USA

The scary thing in all this is that so many people WILL see him as the next messiah, not knowing our True Messiah. As Christians we must remain alert and ready through all of this. Tough times are coming! Always hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

Leslie, Farmington, MO, USA

Even a deflating balloon makes a lot of noise, but in the end, it's just that...a lot of noise with nothing left but an empty bag.
Obama talks a lot but says nothing. Change...change...change..sounds good, but his bag of ideas is very empty. Like lemmings going off a cliff.....

R E Garbe, Palm Beach, USA

That's excellent. I hope he lives up to the hope he engenders.

Let's not see him sacrificed on the altar of greed and corruption, urged on by pious unbelievers.

The second coming - how appropriate that he be a black American, of a mixed marriage no less.

And that his wife is so powerful too.

Sheila Davis, Mudgeeraba Qld, Australia

Too bad everyone compares BHO's skills with Hitler. BHO groupies just tune out. The visceral hatred for GWB has clouded judgment, and they don't realize they're about to elect a fraud. He was in the state legislature when we went to Iraq. He has never had to make a tough decision and defend it.

Phil, Kansas City, USA

Just hope for change, you bigoted, angry, white men who cling to your guns and religion.

The New Messiah has arrived.

So bow down before him and worship him.

Obama '08!

Mark Pitrone, Gnadenhutten, United States

As usual everyone is falling for the Left-Right paradigm. If any of you Americans had any sence you wouldn't be voting for McCain or Obama! They are both 'chosen ones' for the establishment. I noticed that many who read this article and liked it are still going to vote for Obama! WHAT?

Nic, london, England

Marginally clever stuff which reminds me of the dearth of good satire that has come out of the UK since " The Life of Brian." A satire that focused on the fawning & calculating leaders Obama visited would have been more telling. I'm quite sure that Bush has already struck them off his Christmas list

Charles Ridewood, Columbus, Ohio, USA

Would you please stop making fun of Jesus? This was hard to read without becoming angry. Obama is not Jesus, for those of you who don't know!

Rachel, Montgomery, AL, United States

A great speaker does make a great leader. Calling Hitler a great leader is not exactly difficult. He was incredibly effective. The problem, of course, was what he was allowed to do. Frankly, the Republicans should be scared. They have prepared the way for the Antichrist by removing barriers.

Jonathan Gardner, Pasadena, USA

Obama = Not a Messiah.... People are stupid to believe such a thing....

Larry, Anniston, AL,

I am American living offshore in a hostile land wake up American read about other countries-- Bush was great for America. People came to America for a better life-do not try to make it like the rest of the world-- The world wants to look up to America-- keep it the best don't elect a great speaker

l Sloane, Pt Cook , Australia

Does only 143 days in office mean that he is unable to lead a nation out of the fiasco, BUSH? I for one, DO NOT want a "Lifer" politician as President. A fresh set of eyes to see the problems and then the courage to unite America to fix them is what we need now...

Ramon Miller, Quad Cities, USA

What if we don't want either candidate? Seems like if you're not a socialist or conservative, then you lose.

Obama = hype

And no, I'm not a McCain or Bush supporter...

Jessica, Raleigh, NC,

Isn't this how Hitler was thought of a few decades ago?
How eloquent, following is a quote from a Hitler biography:
"Hitler became leader of the Nazi party and built up membership quickly, mostly because of his powerful speaking ability."
A great speaker does not a great leader make!

Lilith, Auburn, WA

"The Annointed one has charisma (much like B Clinton) and fools people when speaking". He lacks experience. Obama was only in the Senate office for 143 days when he decided to run for president. He is counting on Allah's blessing to get him to office of Pres. of US. US are smarter than that. G.J.

G. Johnson, San Diego, USA

With the U.S. media having treated Mr. Obama's vacuous candidacy as the arrival of The True Messiah (the supposed Annointed One of two millenia past was bogus, don't you know), it is refreshing for Americans to read an incisive counterpoint from the far more sophisticated, worldly-wise UK press.

Shane Usary, Johnson City, United States

Thou shalt not make mock of The Anointed One nor shall thou point out the size of His Ears nor that He stole "this is our moment" from Bono. Amen

Charles I, Essex, CT, USA

Verily Verily I say unto thee, Finally thier eyes were opened and they saw the beast.

Mike, Williamsburg, USA

Great illustration of media bias in our country. Although it is fictional, it is not that far from how Obama's followers think of him. I still cannot believe more people do not see this man for the fraud that he is.

Eric Clausen, Proctorville, OH, United States of America

This is a scream! "In the great Battles of Caucus and Primary he smote the conniving Hillary...and their barbarian hordes of Working Class Whites." But one small historical correction: "The One" only won the Battles of Caucus--with the help of his own rowdy hordes of "Creative(cough)Class" Zealots.

Thomas, Tracy, California, USA

Beautiful.

Deby Debelack, Seattle, USA

I'm surprised that lots of people have missed one of the major issues that Obama's visit raises i.e. why is political representation of Black people so poor in the UK? Is it directly linked to the lack of aspiration on the part of some black children here? Dare we talk about institutional racism?

Jon Kourkous, London, UK

Baker and Limbaugh...

Birds of a feather.

Says it all...

G.Jones, S.F.,

OMG! This is the very best satirical piece I have ever read. This piece on Obama is kinto Kissinger when the rumor went around that Kissinger was the anti Christ.

It's nice to see someone from the UK areeing with what Rush Limbaugh has been saying for awhile!!
GREAT writing!! Hit the nail squarely on the head!!!

randy, Broken Arrow, USA

Looks like the McCain trolls are out in force on this one. I swear it's just the same few people posting over and over again. Somehow I think they've missed the actual message of the piece.

Dave, Oxford, UK

It would be a sad world if there were no optimism. People mock inspiration because it is a threat to convenient disappointment. Of course Obama isn't the Messiah. In fact, he's a politician. He just happens to be a politician who is not afraid to try to inspire. Enjoy it, it's rare but productive

Dylan Bry, Carlsbad, USA

This is clever writing to be sure but without substance, honesty, or truth. Bush, Cheney, and all the other cowards that promoted this war (Hannity, Limbaugh) all these fake flag pin lying patriots will enjoy your article. All the stupid unthinking people will love it.

Stephen Bleeds , Houston , Texas

This is the friggin' funniest thing I've read in some time.

Well thought piece, satire with partisan lens rethoric. You deserve credit for your work if you only agree it is satirical for entertainment purposes
Ambrose, Dallas TX USA

Ambrose Mageto, Dallas, TX, Usa

This really will go down as one of the most well written satires of modern English. Amazing though- how many Americans just don't get it. We really do not speak the same language....(will they get that- at least?)

ric, birmingham, UK

the naievity and cognitive dissonance within the conservative american public is really what is disturbing. After the past 8 years you should want ANY change and not a continuation of policy.

I have been justly accused many times of being the consummate cynical cynic and am jealous that I did not write this article. It is a masterpiece!

I'm crying, that was so funny! I would love to see this read by Chris Matthews.

Thanks Gerard for putting to print what the rest of us were secretly thinking. . .great humor and I love it.

Ronda, oroville, california, usa

This is the most fun I've had in a long time. Truth comes through humor. Great writing.

Jeanne, Roanoke, USA

Very well done Gerard; but I'm concerned my friend. Since the 'mother country' has turned herself inside out to accomodate the pagan Ishmaelites, who have taken over your land, do you not think they'll be reoffended again by your prose from, gasp, the bible?

Stephen R. Leach, Lexington, SC, USA

Spot on

Dicko, Brooklyn,

That is one good read ... If I wasn't already a lead singer in the Republican choir, Gerard Baker's sermon would have made me a convert.

J. Welch, Charlottesville, VA, USA

Incredible, hilarious, and (mostly and unfortunately) quite true. Great work!!

You made me laugh so hard that my sides hurt and I'll probably be one of the ones voting for him.

Brilliant piece of writing.

Wonderful piece. I heard it on Rush's show and I couldn't way to read it for my self. Great job Mr. Baker. Keep up the good work Sir.

Jose A. Menendez, Tampa, U.S.A.

I am greatly heartened that someone in Europe can clearly see the Obama truth through all the Obama razzle-dazzle hype. Now, I only hope America can see the same! Fantastic column!

What Blasphemy. wish I had written this. Cheers!

i think for the most part people have no idea what they are talking about. how bout you all visit the middle east before making such blind judgments.

Kathy, Westville, USA

THANK YOU. Absolutely brilliant.

Mark, Binghamton, NY, USA

As a UK resident in the US, I'm a keen Obama supporter and this hilarious piece had me giggling throughout. Sadly though, it seems that many in the US, not being as familiar as we are with satire, have yet again missed the point, and seen in it what they want to - opprobrium. (Look it up, people.)

Elisabeth Davis, Bethesda, MD, USA

Thank you for this accurate and objective account.

Rey, Bangkok, Thailand

Let us pray !!

Thomas Powers, Pine Knoll Shores, United States

Bless you, oh wise one and your silver pen which writes the truth and now, from your pen to the voter's hand.

jamado, Pearland, USA

You're a good writer, but you highly underestimate those who are pro-Obama. We know he has his flaws, but it's not his fault the media fawns over him. It's also hilarious that these people in the comments are using this as one more reason to vote for McCain. A likeable guy as President? Never!

Lauren, Sacramento, USA

Now THAT is satire at it's brilliant best! (Taking notes, New Yorker Magazine?)

Alice Galeotti, Spokane, WA, USA

Ha! I haven't laughed this hard in a long time! Thanks to the author for the pick-me-up!

Ron, Riverton, Wyoming, USA

Mighty fine satire........and fitting.

ONTIME, SUISUN CITY, USA

It's funny...we have a once in a generation candidate who inspires us as Reagan and Kennedy did, and some people want to spin this as something bad. Do you guys kick your dogs when you get home too?

Rob, Minneapolis, USA

Sadly most American university professors would have probably failed you for this creative writing assignment. Regardless, you earned your paycheck today, Mr. Baker.

Torgny, Los Angeles, United States

If y'all are so enchanted by this snake oil salesman then by all means take him-please!

Harley, Pierce county, USA

My God, this is brilliant! If only it could make the blind see again!

Paul, Granite Bay, California

One of the best pieces of Political satire ever written.

Shawn Bozaeth, ellizabethtown, USA

Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.

Annie Hancock, Bath, UK

Absolutely astounding! And I too am voting for McCain.

Miguel Montoya, Spanaway, WA, USA

The finest piece of political satire I have ever seen!!!! Mark Twain is twitching in his grave with jealousy. Fantastic, inspired. Magnificent.

Aloha

Jamie, Kailua-Kona, USA

I enjoyed this very much. However, it can be read not as satire, but as truth. We need leaders who can inspire us. It's been a long time.

Bertrand Jones, Tashkent, Uzbekistan

Outstanding, simply outstanding! and exactly why I'm voting for John McCain.

Roger, New York, New York, U.S.A.

Wonderfully written--give us more!

MaryLee, Colorado Springs, USA

Well put. A breath of fresh, oxygen-rich, air.

Ryan, Maumee, USA

That was hilarious, and I loved the live reading that was on Hannity tonight. Kudos for writing this, it was brilliant biting satire of how Obama is being treated now.

Joe, Mesa, AZ, United States

This is a masterpiece! One of the finest political satires I've ever seen. Every word and phrase is so perfectly chosen. I hope this receives the applause and attention it deserves.

Jeff, Phoenix, USA

Very funny. And I can't wait to vote for Obama.

Oli, Easton, PA, USA

Bravo!

Elizabeth, Warwick, USA

OH Thank you, thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anthony is so right it is a shame that we have to go to a UK paper to get this. Please more!! Finally there is sanity left in the world, if not the US.

Gerad, Cleveland, USA

Thanks for frightening me underneath my bed.

Marsh, sewell, nj, USA

Brilliant satire - on the mark, nonpartisan, biting and, best of all, humorous.

Franklin B. Tucker, Belmont, Mass., USA

It is understood the fear of conservatives as they see Obama sweeping from to coast to coast, while his vision and policies seem as it's going to grab the american nation with a storm - after eight miserable years of failed policy.
But too bad for you conservatives, you fail

Jacob, Brooklyn,

Brilliant...simply Brilliant

BJL, Seattle, US

I think the article is brilliantly funny and uncannily accurate. I'm voting for Barack Obama. The youthful exhuberance alone is reason enough. The stale air of old politics needs to be under the headstone of shame. My compliments to Times on-line.

Bob R, Tulsa, United States

Next time someone says to me the Brit's ain't got no sense of humor I'm gonna show them this smashing piece.
Thanks for the truth with laughs.

Eric, Lakeville, USA

I am an Obama supporter but I did enjoy this witty piece of satire. To the critics who bemoan his lack of specifics: American voters forget that they need to take responsibility and actually research the candidates' specific positions; for the record, Obama's are nicely laid out on his website.

Samantha, Durham, NC, USA

Oh my goodness. You Sir, deserve Kudos for this article. The way you wove so much of the Bible into this, i almost could believe this would be in 2 Hezekiah. :-) Most of us might have been able to do the 1st paragraph, but you really put some thought into this. I love the satire...

steven, sacramento, ca, usa

Finally, a good candidate and no one can stand it,,,.racists, racists all.

Arni, Portland, USA

That is hilarious! Most excellent prose Sir.

Billy, Hoover, United States

A brilliant indictment of the sycophantic American press and a study in mass hysteria as well. Please send this piece across the pond.

Greg Dail, Smithfield, NC, US

Fun and interesting piece of writing. However, reading the comments here I can't help but shake my head but then again this is a segment of the American electorate. Barack is not the messiah but I will still choose him over John McCain anytime. The same people who are crying fraud, voted for Dubya.

Andrew, Baltimore,

I love it. Poetic, beautiful and a great treaure to keep. Yes we can, Amen.

Ndigbo, Boston, USA

I am profoundly speechless...This is incredible. Please,please, please write more columns like this - this is great! Keep up the god work!

Miles, South Carolina, USA

This article was shear brilliance. I loved it and thank you for writing it.
This has made my day. I was afraid you Europeans had all lost your mind.
Terri, De Pere, WI, USA

Terri McCracken , De Pere , usa

Here come all the Drudge trolls!

Lee, London,

I find the article highly offensive. I'm no Obama supporter, but this just isn't amusing at all.

Justin Kase, Martin, GA, USA

Despite being an Obama supporter and critic of the bush-supporting Gerard Baker, I have to say that this is hilarious! However, once in a while, there are inspirational individuals who come around and show us a better way, and it is in the nature of the cynics to tear them down.

Vaseem, london, uk

Wonderfully written!! When it comes to wit, you can't beat the British!!!

R. Rivera, New Jersey, USA

Wow That's so cool ,just awesome wonder if Harry Potter ,people would consider making it in to a movie,I would love to see it.

james , honolulu, USA

Gerard Baker once again reminds me why he's my favorite columnist for any European paper.

Dave, boston, USA

Sounds good; Obama '08!

Eli, Seattle, Omerica

Mr. Baker,

That, good sir, is quite simply a brilliant piece of writing. Bravo!

Austin, Houston, TX, USA

And the Child moved to the right of center and his own did not reject him for they knew his stock.

keith, northampton,

It's almost too close to the mark.

And sadly, I'm sure his followers will not even notice the satire.

Carl Lemke, Trevor, USA

You may keep him over in the UK. Forever!

One SO perfect does not belong to US.

Enjoy! How fortunate you will be. He knows everything.

Except for......but you'll have SUCH joy ...altho not as much as

WE WILL!!!!

Mary, Yorkville, USA

Oh, look. It's yet another article about Obamania. How innovative and creative.

The anti-Obama rhetoric is as baseless and fanatical as the pro-Obama movement.

Ryan Smith, Dallas,

Outstanding bit of wit. It is truly hysterical to watch the Left become caricatures of themselves! It makes this kind of stuff easy to write. Just write what they present to you!

Norma Drew, Charleston, SC, USA

Simply. This is awesome!

Michael, La Mirada, CA, USA

As an Obamaniac from the same City of Chicago as The Child, let me say this is positively brilliant. While the whole parade can get a tad silly at times, I do find it refreshing that optimism has returned to the conversation.

Jason Slade, Chicago, IL, USA! USA! USA!

A very well written piece of satire. I'm sure many of us see it as a brilliant reflection of not just Obama, and the American electoral process, but of our own political "leaders". It's a great pity that such satire is so absent from our television channels.

Mike, Epworth, UK

O Giraldus the Recorder of the ancient land of the hooligans I salute you, you are the One!

Hwntw, CwmHwntiGwmRhydyCeirw,

Brilliant! Incredibly well written article, but missing 2 things: the burning bush and some stone tablets ;)

Greg, denver, USA

Loved the article Mr. Baker. Wish we had you in the US media.

I still beleive that Barack Hussein Obama is a good example of Affirmative Action run Amok.

RW

Ruth, Colorado Springs, CO, USA

The only thing we needed in the article was;

'One ring to rule them all, and in the darkness bind them!'

This just shows that Britannia still rules when it comes to satire!

Well done!

Glubber, Olympia, WA, USA

This is absolutly BRILLIANT! I will be printing this out and sharing this with all my friends tonight! You are a genius!

Ray, Dallas, TX, USA

Religious Right...so people who have uncompromising values about family, life, freedom, and responsibility are terrible? Bush was a moderate at best, he didn't lean Right at all except with tax breaks (god I hate having more of my own money) but he did spend alot....so yes Moderate.

Jarrod, Anaheim, US

Sir, you will surely be cast out of the Tribe for the blasphemous words you have written.

Pinch, NY, USA

This is priceless!!

Mrs. B., Jamesville, NY, USA

Thank you! Wow!

Gary Jones, Alturas, USA

From this Obama Girl: very, very funny!!

Marie, Manchester, CT, USA

Racism at the highest and only to be expected from a trashy Murdoch rag.

George W., Washington D.C., USA

praise be Obama !
Amen

stephen strzalka, Lake Forest, usa

Amen, Amen I say to thee.

The last time I saw that many people in front of the Victory Tower we were heading into a World War. Both orators support a very similar agenda, save the "living space" (watch out Canada).

The best editorial I have heard in decades.

God Bless Gerald Baker

Jim, Grosse Pointe Park, Michigan

This the best written artical in a long time.

go fox, wpb, USA!!!

Congratulations! You nailed it.

texmexgal, Dallas, Tx, USA

Exceptionally well written! I don't think Mark Twain could have written a better political satire piece. I hope you stick with this theme up to the "harvest month of the appointed year."

Mike Harlin, Tustin, California, USA

Blasphemy

Brian, Olathe, KS

If Obama is running for President of the United States of America, what is he doing campaigning in all over Europe? He is a 'citizen of the world'

I don't know about other Americans, but that really bothers me? This article is satire. Unfortunately, satire holds the truth up and makes fun of it.

C Harrison, Dallas, TX, USA

The problem is, my friend, that Obamatians might take this for the Gospel, canonize it, as the New Testament to "Earth in the Balance".

Bob Tackett, Mathiston, MS, US

Great writing, great satire, great work!

John, Columbus, OH, USA

Significant change that takes the form of conflict resolution begins in an atmosphere of trust, hope, faith, love and persistence. These five qualities are not sufficient in and of themselves to lead to salutary effects but they are necessary. Obama vision transcends narrow partisanship.

gibbs, NYC, NY

That has to be the wittiest thing I have read this year. Bravo.

Jacob B., Seattle, USA

Wonderful piece! Thank God there is some sanity in Europe after all. I'm printing this out to show all my friends!

Steve, Anchorage, Alaska, USA

Ha ha ha!! I LOVE it!! Heaven help us all if he wins in Nov......

Shelly, Minneapolis, USA

Spot on.

monkeyfan, Frederiksted, St. Croix, US Virgin Islands

Greg, Blairstown, USA

And verily I was impressed and moved to laughter at such silver tongued eloquence.

Alan of the tribe

Alan, Roswell, USA

Mildly amusing at best. But all the toothless inbreds who believe what the see on Fox "News" and think evolution is a fib and that the world is only 6000 years old should enjoy it.

Jason, Los Angeles, USA

Brilliant indeed. And risky too: Are folks these days familiar enough with the AV (KJV) Bible to appreciate all the allusions?

Joel H., Evans, GA, Occupied CSA

A wonderful piece! After 8 years of being embarrassed by Dubya and his Bushanistas, Obama may just be the man to help the US regain it's dignity.

Bob Podstawski, Butler, New Jersey, USA

like Don Quixote said: "Sancho, the dogs are barking, we are mopving ahead"
the future cannot be stopped.
Obama is the future

Bill O'Reilly, Iowa, USA

Great article...this guy knows at least the surface area of the Gospel....Not be be completely insensitive, but if you are not from the US; just comment on the article, don't tell us who you support over whom...frankly it is not the world's decision to elect either candidate. we don't vote for yours

JB, Orange County, US

Absolutely the most brilliant article written this election cycle. That the depth, insight, and clear understaning had me wishing it would never end. The article should certainly win a Pulitzer Prize. Mr Baker should also be nominated for a Nobel Prize in journalism.

Bruce Colella, Wildwood (St. Louis), USA

Well said ! ! !

k.laughlin, kendallville,in, usa

I love it! Even though I think Obama is going to win because there really is no opposition with McCain, I'll still vote Republican because it is the slightly lesser of two evils. But the satire is the best I've seen in years! See also the Jib Jab skit of the presidential race. Excellent satire!!

AndrewP, Chicago, USA

Our world has grown a lot more cynical since last we heard speeches like this. You could have written the same parody of JFK's speeches, or Martin Luther King's.
What you are making fun of is putting passion and hope into political speeches. It is an art we have not seen in seen in generations.

William Hopper, Kingston, Canada

Right on. Excellent. Creative. You captured the picture perfectly.
Thank You

Dennis, Damascus, USA

I feel sinful after laughing the whole way through this article, for while it is an excellently crafted piece that's dead on, I'm not sure if it crosses into blasphemy.

Chris, Syracuse, NY, USA

Satire at its finest!

Teresa, Illinois,

Yes nothing good can ever happen! The US can never have an eloquent, intelligent president who can give a stirring speech. Instead let's elect someone who makes one cringe when he speaks, graduated 5th from the bottom of his class and thinks Iraq borders Pakistan. That's a reality we can believe in.

Donna, Boise, US

No Roy all of that is not a crime.But neither does it qualify him to be President. These same things could be said for someone who gives speeches for a living . As for war, lets not forget BO's comments about Afghanistan also Pakistan.

Geoff, Illinois, USA

Why do Americans forget there are plenty of people to vote for other the Republican and Democrat....if you dislike both candidates find one you do like. Don't let them monopolize the country

DJ, Seattle, US

This article is spreading across America by email right now so I have a feeling you will be getting your well deserved praise for an excellent article.

David, Dallas, TX, USA

The Brits really know how to write satire. This is excellent. I hope this writer can be featured in America.

KT, MN, USA

What a labored, heavy-handed attempt at satire this is. You've outdone yourself in pomposity and condescension, Mr Baker.

Caroline, New York, US

How easy and comfortable it is for those whose profession's intellectual demands are to think about syntax and concerns, such as, "will the masses think I'm funny?" A terrible waste of energy and distastefully arrogant in tone and perspective. Try politics and see how funny real life can be.

Michael, Kansas City, USA

Hilarious, clever. Will definitely pass it on to all of my friends.

Ingrid Soldan, Melvin Village NH, USA

Excellent. I wonder when the media swoon in the U.S. will be over for Obama? Probably not until February of '08 when they see he hasnt solved global warming, brought about world peace and de nuclearized the world by waving a magic wand. Lord help us if he is elected, it will be 1976 all over again

Roger, NYC, USA

You realize, nobody who's voting for Barack actually thinks he's any kind of "messiah"... it's only the detractors who think we believe that. It'll be great to have a respectable president who doesn't embarrass us overseas once again... one who can actually speak with clarity and intelligence.

Diana, Houston, TX, USA

I guess having intellect is a crime. I guess having the ability to translate ideas and thought into words that are cogent is a crime. I guess inspiring people not to apathetic is a crime. I guess not seeing war as the solution to every problem is naieve. Bring on ww 4.Bring on Mcain the new caesar.

roy, Goodyear, USA

As always, thanks must go to Matt Drudge, the real king of all media. He puts it up, some people see it there. Neal, Rush, they find it there, then suddenly, 30 million people know about it.

Bake, Atlanta, GA, USA

Just watch. The world will soon see that America's true soul will emerge at the polls and this so called "Mesiah" will be truly identified as a "pariah".

James, Phoenix, USA

Superb, simply superb in every way - a keeper for sure!

Joanne, Niagara Falls, Canada

I have sent this to my liberal cousin in Norway. Hopefully she will start to understand this this guy is nothing but a confidence man.

miles, Punta Gorda, Florida, USA

Great job Mr. Baker, you really proved a point. I'm sure this piece will be regarded as one of the greatest works of satire of the 21st century.

People should never be excited by anything, let alone politics.

Smitty, Los Angeles,

And more excellent still. For it is told the disciple of unbriddled expectation will fill the land with great promise. And the land will become wet with gasoline and the people will rejoice for now they are only paying $3.50 per gallon. And the lion shall eat the lamb, it is hungry and more powerful

Lloyd, Dillon,

You're just jealous because we actually elect our leaders...

Luke, Philadelphia, PA

Outstanding! It's wonderful to see that someone has escaped Jonestown Part II!

Chris, Columbus, OH, USA

Neal Boortz just read the whole article on the radio...perfect!

Seth, Durham, NC, USA

A literary masterpiece ! A shame few in our media will dare tell the truth about this con artist.

Tim, Phoenix, AZ, USA

Satire is funny stuff. This is funny stuff. Will Obama's supporters see that or will they wig out like they did on the New Yorker cover.

MikeF, Iowa, USA,

Why does it take only a few not so brainwashed media folks to see through this Elmer Gantry of a politician? He's nothing more than a revival preacher who is a phony. As other astute posters have pointed out, Obama isn't about substance, he's about more nebulous things such as change.

Erin, Virginia, USA

A most excellent assessment and article. Lofty rhetoric comes cheaply, but as one of our fast food commercials pointedly asked "Where's the beef?" All I see is repackaged bread crumbs. One of our political cartoonist had the senator saying in Berlin - 'Ich Bin ein Beginner.' God help us!

Mike, Memphis, USA

Funny because it’s satirical and ridiculous. We think this because we know Obama isn’t the divine being portrayed and the acts described are far fetched and laughable? But we gobble up similar works about someone born ~2008 years ago? Why is one piece obviously fiction and the other not?

Bill, oyster bay, USA

Excellent, excellent, with a side of more excellent. One of these days I have to visit the UK.

Anthony, Philadelphia, USA

There only seems to be a few poster who actual get the point of this article. It isn't pro or anti Obama, it's merely revealing the way in which some sections of the media are portraying him. Satire at it's finest. Bravo Mr Baker!

DaveCottle, Shrewsbury, UK

A great article - wish you were American media - we need you!

You captured the world tour perfectly. Quite scary - but Americans are wise in the end. November will be the proof.

Kay , Birmingham, AL, USA

Great satire. And great satire only happens when it contains the truth. Brilliantly written and good to see that not everyone over the pond is taken in my this snake oil salesman.

Pat, Flemingsburg , USA

Great satire. And great satire only happens when it contains the truth. Brilliantly written and good to see that not everyone over the pond is taken in by this snake oil salesman.

Pat, Flemingsburg , USA

Simply brilliant!! A riotously funny indictment of our media and the people of our times.

Helen, WVA, US

Smashing! British wit and wisdom at its best. I'm afraid, however, that too many of your American cousins will
miss the message.

R.C.Oates, Brookhaven, MS,

Great work BUT Barack Obama is the BEST politician to step forward since JFK !! He is NOT Jesus Christ but he is better than BUSH, BLAIR, McCain and The Queen.

joe citizen, Anywhere , USA

Absolutely brilliant!!

Melissa, Dallas, USA

Very cleaver, and lots of hidden and not so hidden truth.

Larry Whitaker, Oakland, OR, USA

Great fun to read; That's why we watch Fox.

I got it on Fox News that the great crowd we saw in Germany was do to the people waiting to see some bands perform. Just like the Dems to make it look like they're there for Obama.

Sher, Philadelphia, USA

Brilliant. Brilliant. I'm thinking of buying ear plugs. Wherever I go I hear the word, "Obama". When I turn on the tv I hear the word, "Obama". The radio, "Obama." We Americans are the second most brain washed nation in the world. The other nation being North Korea.

Mike, Los Angeles, USA

Verily, verily I say unto you, let us all pray that the young messiah shall bring forth your message to all the infidels in the new world as he makes his trek on top of the waters across the ocean. Hillarious.

John Mark, Pearland, TeXAS, USA

The thing that makes great satire"great" is when it rings true. That's what makes this funny but quite scary at the same time. Perhaps the bright light eminating from Mr Obama has smote the masses blind so they can't see him for who he really is. God in heaven help the USA if/when he gets elected.

Paul, Manhattan, Ks, USA

This must be one of the most entertainingly well written pieces I've ever read. A truly great piece of satire that cuts deep into the myth of the Annointed One.

Bryan, Los Angeles, CA, United States

Wonderfully written!
