And So It Begins Again

FBI raids over the weekend in Michigan arrested seven as part of an investigation into a Christian cult militia group called "Hutaree".  If all this seems familiar, you're remembering the period before the Oklahoma City bombing.  These days, that's called Obama Derangement Syndrome.  The Detroit News:
At least seven people, including some from Michigan, have been arrested in raids by a FBI-led Joint Terrorism Task Force in Michigan, Ohio and Indiana as part of an investigation into an Adrian-based Christian militia group, a person familiar with the matter said.

The suspects are expected to make an initial appearance in U.S. District Court in Detroit on Monday.

On Sunday, a source close to the investigation in Washington, D.C. confirmed that FBI agents were conducting activities in Washtenaw and Lenawee counties over the weekend in connection to Hutaree, a Christian militia group. Detroit FBI Special Agent Sandra Berchtold told The Detroit News the federal warrants in the case are under court seal and declined further comment.

Sources have said the FBI was in the second day of raids around the southeastern Michigan city of Adrian that are connected to a militia group, known as the Hutaree, an Adrian-based group whose members describe themselves as Christian soldiers preparing for the arrival and battle with the anti-Christ
But what does that have to do with Obama?  Hmm, wait, now where have I heard that before?
Scariest of all, 24 percent of Republicans (14 percent overall) say that Obama "may be the Antichrist."
Oh, right.  But that can't be the only hook to hang this hat on, right?

In the summary of that same poll it shows 13% of independents think that as well and almost 1/3 think that
- He has done something unconstitutional.
- He resents America's heritage
- He does what Wall Street and
the bankers tell him to do

1/5 thinks hes a racist and anti-American

Also an interesting read into the whole "Obama Derangement Syndrome" that you allude to.

"i>The other 13 are matters of opinion ("He is a socialist," "He may be the Anti-Christ") or speculation about his motives ("He resents America's heritage," "He wants the terrorists to win"), most of which almost anyone would agree cast the president in a harshly unfavorable light. The central finding--that Republicans are far more likely than Democrats to offer assent to truculent statements about Obama--is not exactly stop-the-presses material. "

This is from a Washington Post poll
WaPo Poll results.
He understands problems of people like you. 56 Yes 43 No

He is a strong leader. 65 Yes 33 No

He has brought needed change to Washington. 54 Yes 44 No

He is willing to listen to different points of view. 68 Yes 31 No

These numbers are important. People want a strong leader who they feel understands and cares about their problems. Too many people on Daily Kos, for whatever reason, think people want super-Obama (or they want a hero to worship). Most grown ups are not looking for a super-hero. They want a strong President who cares about them.
So even with 13% of indies with 22% who call themselves rethugs you lonnies still lose.So if the numbers are not on your side how will you take "YOUR" country back?

Um...hope that was directed to the blog writer. My whole sarcastic point was the poll he was citing was selective, even the WSJ link I left was to prove that point.

Also
http://media.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/hp/ssi/wpc/Poll.data.3.29.10.pdf?sid=ST2010032803134

The poll number trend for Obama is going down for those same questions. People are more and more realizing he's not what people are portraying him as.

He's not a great leader.
