Heckler calls Obama the Antichrist

LOS ANGELES -- A heckler shouting about Jesus Christ interrupted President Obama at a fundraiser before security dragged him out.

It happened at the House of Blues in Los Angeles Monday night.

The man positioned himself up in front of the stage and started shouting loudly right after Mr. Obama started talking.

The heckler proclaimed that, "Jesus Christ is the son of God. Jesus Christ is the son of God."

"I agree," Mr. Obama said, then stayed quiet as the crowd, after a moment, started chanting "Four more years! Four more years!" and drowned out the heckler.

But, as he was taken away by security, the man shouted, "You are the Antichrist."

Later, another, more-friendly heckler shouted out, "Don't forget medical marijuana!" Mr. Obama responded: "Thank you for that."

The Heckler is correct. He is the Beast. You will wake and wonder where we went and why you were left behind. Recognize the truth. He is the way and the light. I am the apostle Matthew and walk amongst you shaking my head. My you see the truth.

I'm David Serrano, and I proclaimed the Truth to president Obama: "The Christian God is the one and only true living God, the Creator of heaven and the universe. Jesus Christ is God. Jesus Christ is the Son of God." And, I called President Obama "an Antichrist", because in 2009 in his speech in Egypt, he said he believed in the Muhammadan lies of Isra and Mi'raj. I repeatedly said the stories of Isra and Mi'raj are false. How come no one quoted me on that? I told President Obama all about it but no one quoted me correctly concerning that fact. Get the story right. There is war in the Holy Land because Muslims believe the false stories of Isra and Mi'raj. The Truth is Jesus is Lord. Amen. The Lord Jesus Christ loves everyone on earth. God loves everyone on earth. Amen. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. The Holy Trinity is one God forever and ever. Amen.

I wonder what they paid him. He sure got the job done! I wish each of you would step outside this picture so you could see and hear your selves. I am ashamed that the rest of the world should read some of what's written here.

>> "Heckler calls Obama the Antichrist"

Is compassion gone from the world? Are we reduced to a society of callous and insensitive self-righteous zealots?? Imagine the humiliation, the feelings of despair, the deep anguish suffered, the horror felt by the Antichrist, being accused of being like Obama.

Obama is such a gentlemen. I have so much respect for him. Too bad ignorant people like you have so much hate and malice to appreciate good people.

Imagine the suffering and horror felt by someone when a decent, honest caring main is caused the antichrist. How would your father, brother or son feel if they were called the antichrist.
