Lastly, pharaoh was considered a God, and dang it, if it doesn't just seem that many of his supporters feel that way about him.
Moses? Moses was a deeply religious man, lived a life of wealth and privilege, then gave it up and lived as a slave and as a wanderer. No, I'm just saying that Obama more closes resembles Pharaoh than Moses if you want to compare them.
But I have heard him called "Caesar Barrackus Obamus", maybe that's a little closer to the mark.

Hmmmm, you make some interesting analogies here. I like the one about the infrastructure. Here's hoping Obama's structures are as well built and last as long as the pyramids!
Gotta wonder about this idea, though:

I bolded the part that struck me. Why do you think we'll have more plagues, trials, and tribulations under Obama than under McCain? Are you saying something about Obama's policies will stir up Bird Flu? Or maybe his global warming program will result in a plague of locusts?
