Memo To Sen. Messiah Barack: Religious Shrines Are Not Campaign Props

Before Sen. Messiah Barack left Israel today on his way to his followers in Germany, The Anointed One made a customary stop at the Western Wall, one of the holiest sites in Judaism.
Too bad that his youtful (no, I spelled it that way intentionally!) followers turned it into a cheap campaign prop.
Somehow, this was not on Sen. Messiah Barack's annouced schedule. Yet, there they were. Some youts lined up and dutifully hanging a banner and holding a sign. This was no accident. The Sen. Messiah Barack campaign staff does not have accidents or spur-of-the-moment events like this. These youts knew in advance and were waiting for The Anointed One.
What these youts did was akin to a group following a candidate for office at the Vatican or in Mecca and desecrating holy sites with political propaganda.
I know that these are Jewish youts, but in the Holy Bible, there is the story of Jesus turning over the tables of the money lenders in the temple. I guess that the writers, nor Jesus himself, thought that a politician would stoop to have to have his minions thrown over as well.
Be it for me to advise the Sen. Messiah Barack crew, but I will.
No more props at religious sites, OK? It is not cool. It is not hip. It is a desecration.
But I forgot.
The Christian Messiah Barack spent 20 years in the "church" of the "Rev." Jeremiah Wright. Were I am certain there was a little religion in the political sermon of the morning.
Hopefully we will not see this again from the Sen. Messiah Barack campaign staff.
Leave religious sites religious and do what you went there to do. No more campaign props at the holy sites.
