Was Jesus a "Community Organizer"?

At the Republican National Convention, Rudy Giuliani and Sarah Palin mocked Barak Obama for claiming that he has the experience needed to be president because he was once a "community organizer." Well, that got the Democrats all ticked off, and a bunch of them started saying, "Jesus was a community organizer, Pilate was a governor!" just to take a stab back at Governor Palin.

Okay, there are several things wrong with this idiotic statement. Firstly, three of our past four presidents were (gasp!) former governors. George W. Bush was Governor of Texas, Bill Clinton was Governor of Arkansas, and Ronald Reagan was Governor of California (by the way, all three of them served two terms). So, making fun of governors by comparing them to Pontias Pilate is pretty stupid.

Secondly, the liberals are always the ones who never want conservatives to mention Jesus. They spent eight years mocking President Bush for talking about his faith. And yet here they are, invoking the name of Jesus Christ (a name they usually want banned from the public forum) to support their own agenda. How very hypocritical.

Lastly, Jesus was NOT a community organizer. What did he organize? Did he organize pep rallies or bake sales? Did he organize protests or groups to lobby the government? Did he organize a rebellion against the Romans? No, he didn't do any of those things (although the Jews wanted him to). Jesus acted on his own, and people followed him. He taught on his own. He healed people on his own. And the last time I checked, there was no community group hanging next to him on the Cross. Jesus led by example, and those who followed him did so because Jesus knew what it meant to bring real hope to mankind.
