Congressman Steve Cohen of Memphis, compares Obama to Jesus and Palin to Pontius Pilot.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmnbTBCktoM

article in local paper:
http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2008/sep/10/cohen-compares-obama-jesus/

Cohen is white and Jewish. He won reelection by a landslide in his heavily black district against a young, black, female attorney.

Memphis politics are something else, but what do you think about his comments?

If that youtube link doesn't work, you can find it on the left side of the Commercial Appeal article.

LOL caesu!

I don't know what the man was thinking. Ridiculous and absurd are the words that come to mind. All I can figure is that he was trying to earn points with his local constituents.
