Heckler declares Obama the antichrist at House of Blues before getting carted off by Secret Service

What can I say? I just like the title. It's not of import; it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. It's just one of those little things in life that makes you say Holy Hell, but there are a lot of crazy people out there.

Via Talking Points Memo, Obama was speaking at a House of Blues event in Los Angeles when ...

"The end of Don't Ask, Don't Tell is the signature achievement of our time," [ master of ceremonies Tyler] Ferguson told Obama and the crowd.

At that point, a bearded man standing in the front row closest to the stage began shouting: "Christian God is the one and only true living God, the creator of Heaven and the Universe," according to White House pool coverage of the event.

Someone then threw a jacket toward the stage.

"Is that his jacket?" Obama quipped.

The guy was still ranting while being carried out by Secret Service: "I love Jesus. Jesus Christ is God. Jesus Christ is the son of God." [...]

The man was still on his way out yelled one final epithet: "Jesus Christ is god, Barack Obama is the antichrist!"

Obama then made a point that he too believes that "Jesus Christ is Lord," before getting back to his stump speech.

This is one of those events that's both funny and scary. Funny because hey, it's not often the antichrist is identified while speaking at the House of Blues (though it probably happens more often than you think), and scary because the Secret Service does not like crazy people in the same room as the president of the United States.
