I Feel Like Vomiting

Conservative blogger Charles Johnson at little green footballs has been battling against the tide of insanity that seems to have grabbed hold of so much right-wing commentary in the US since Obama's election, from the Nirthers to the Obama-is-a-Muslim crowd. But this one is way over the hill and round back the other side. 

At Free Republic – "the premier online gathering place for independent, grass-roots conservatism on the web": Did Jesus Reveal to us the name of the Anti-Christ?  

Here's the video. It's only 4 minutes. I can tell you, if you can't spare the time (though I recommend watching – yes, people actually think like this, even if they can't spell "heigths"), that it may well be so, based on readings from Luke and Isaiah which, in the original Hebrew, sound just like…..the name of the current President of the United States!

I like one of the first comments:

I’d never heard this before. Whether true or not, I don’t know. All I do know is I feel like vomiting.

    The letter wav in Hebrew as used as a conjunction “barak [wav]Bamah” means “and”, not “from” or “in”. And it will never have the sound of an “o” in that context, but a “oo”.
    So when the stupid idiot says that Barak [u]bama means “lightning from the heavens” or “lightning in the heavens” he is completely wrong.
    The translation would really be “Lightning and Height” which is pretty nonsensical, you ought to agree.
    But maybe Barak Obama is not the antiChrist! maybe it is Ehud Barak! 🙂
    As an aside, lightning from the Heavens would be in Hebrew “Barak MeHaShamaim” and lightning in the Heavens would be “Barak baShamaim”
    If you want to use “Bamah” has Heaven, you really need to twist its meaning a lot, because Bamah means High place, and it is used for example for a Theater stage where the actors play.

    Back in the day it was Reagan who was supposed to be the anti-Christ.
    You see, his three names – Ronald Wilson Reagan – have 6 letters each and
    666 is the number of the beast, man!
    There people who actually believed this.
