27 And Obama went on with his disciples, to the Mall of Washington D.C.; and on the way he asked his disciples, "Who do men say that I am?" 28 And *Don King told him, "Joshua; and others say, Moses; and Lennis Washington, Denzel’s momma who was attending the inauguration in the mall with her son said, “The apostle Paul, Moses, John the Baptist – any one of them other prophets." 29 And he asked them, "But who do you say that I am?" Jay Z answered him, "You are the Chocolate Jesus." The first black President of the United States of America and you have changed my life!”
*Actually Don King was the only man interviewed who ended up making some sense. When asked if Obama changed his life King said, “No. America changed my life. Barack Obama is just a part of the American scene, and what this means to me is that America is looking colorblind. They are no longer suffering from myopia. What we are talking about here is much more profound than just a guy who happens to be American and happens to be black.”
Spoken like true Republican.
Parody based on Scripture: Mark 8:27-29

James, don't be like the liberal media. Tell the whole truth or do you homework so you'll know the whole truth.
The people you're poking fun of where asked by the CNS reporter which Biblical character they'd compare Obama to. They didn't randomly approach this journalist and voluntarily offer to compare the president to Biblical characters.
If not playing into the liberal media game and hyping up that nonsense of deifying Obama, why would have asked that question of "famous" blacks anyway?
Regardless of the answer, don't present it as if these people were running around D.C. babbling about Chocolate Jesus, when you know they were baited by the reporter.

Fair & Balanced,
"Why so serious? Let's put a smile on that face."
I linked to the story, what? People can't read? Did you see the parody disclaimer?
