Mike Malloy asks, "Is Barack Obama more powerful than God?"
Apparently Sarah Palin claims that God told her He wanted her to be Vice President. But Palin lost. So does that mean God changed His mind, or does it mean Obama is more powerful than God?

Now there's a deep, philosophical question. O8)

1. Since "God" is a figment of man's imagination.... then undoubtedly Obama is more powerful


"Is Obama more powerful than Zeus?" would be an equivalent question.

2. Agree scheming.
What a question. On the other hand, what a remark by Palin.

4. Malloy would probably agree with you, since he's an atheist.
I think the real question here (whether or not you believe in God) is what voice Sarah was actually hearing. :crazy:

6. Most people seek to get help for those that hear voices in their heads
the Republicans, on the other hand, try to elect them to the White House.

8. Sarah wasn't listening
God wanted her to run for Veep and lose. God wanted Joe Biden for Veep. God told me this. God was right!

9. If he were then we would at least have a public option
we'll "take what we can get" doesn't strike me as having the power of the all mighty one. ;)

11. not necessarily
I think God wanted at least a public option, but he ran that idea past Obama and got shot down.

10. Now, she clearly was not hearing Katie Couric
all that well. Why would one conclude she was hearing God correctly either? Perhaps God meant Vice President of the local moose hunting club, and she missed the details. It would hardly be the first time a small detail like that escaped her attention.
