Spike Lee used to be Obama’s biggest fan. He even compared him to Christ.
In 2008 Spike told reporters, “You can divide history. BB Before Barack. AB After Barack.”

But that was back in 2008.
After three-and-a-half years Spike finally sees that Obama is not the black Jesus, after all.
The Politico reported:

Spike Lee said President Barack Obama is “not perfect,” but that expectations for his first term “were way too high.”

“He was a savior, black Jesus,” the actor-director told CNN’s Don Lemon in an interview airing in its entirety Saturday. “Look, I don’t care who it was. Expectations were way too high.”

Lee accused Republicans of gridlocking Congress to prevent Obama from winning a second term — “a Congress that’s solidified as saying, ‘Whatever you do, we’re blocking that. We’re blocking, and every breath we take, we’re going to do what we can that you don’t get a second term. Bottom line. And if it hurts America in the process, tough business.’”

When asked if Obama has lived up to his promises, Lee answered: “Look, the man’s not perfect. Who’s perfect?”

    I love how they forget that they had 100% control the first two years.

    Blocked? He had a 60 seat majority in the senate and a comfortable majority in the house his first two years. How was he blocked?

    Yet Chris Rock still worships at the altar of the two-tone Messiah, while complaining about the incivility of the Presidential Election:

    Chris Rock Says the Presidential Election Is Getting “Really Mean”

    He declaims money is the problem, so you just know he means that “rich white guy” is the problem.

    We didn’t turn over all industry and our savings and our homes to Spike Lee and the entitled black caucus.

    That is how Spike expected it to go.

    This is what we have to deal with, the left is so wrong. You could tell Lee the facts, but it wouldn’t register. It saddens me to say this, but we are headed for civil war. They can have their socialist/marxist state and we must have our conservative states of America. Then will see which country thrives.

    Spike Lee shows so little understanding of how our Republic and political system work. As if the voters have nothing to do with being bamboozled into electing a fraud and con-man.

    Who’s perfect?

    Certainly not someone sitting on the porch, with the nice clothes and accomodations, sipping iced tea, while keeping the slaves in misery, and working to keep them content with doing whatever Massa Democrat says.

    Nothing changed, Mr. Lee, since the 1700′s. Perfection is one of those things that hasn’t changed.

    Get it yet? Yeah, you do. Too bad the poor slaves who are treated as Michael Vick treated his dogs still don’t, and probably never will — because there are a thousand other porch-dwelling slaves just like you, convincing them to stay in their cages and love Massa Democrat, because “it’s even worse for them outside the Plantation”.

    The shoe fits, Mr. Lee. WEAR IT.

    These “come to Jesus” moments with Celebs Who Worship at the Alter of Barack are NEVER satisfying. It’s NEVER that – “Oh, what he wants is BAD for our country! I’ve seen the light!”, it’s more like, “Well, he didn’t close Gitmo and he should have insisted on the individual mandate, blah, blah, blah….”

    He’s just not LEFT enough for them. Heaven help us if he wins a second term. To the earlier poster who mentioned civil war, boy, I hate to think it but if he wins. If he wins….

    Stella Baskomb commented:

    #1 “I love how they forget that they had 100% control the first two years.”

    Yes. And even after that, the Democrat party held a majority in the Senate and could have maintained effective control of Congress – if only Obama had played it smart. But he and his Democrat party played it stupid and confrontational.

    How were they stupid and confrontational? Time after time Obama and the Democrat Party insisted that “compromise” means “do it our way,” that “bipartisan” means “do it our way, ” and that “reaching across the aisle” means “do it our way.” Mistake. Big mistake.

    In the mid-terms, the Democrat Party lost the House and their veto-proof supermajority in the Senate. How exactly did they lose those seats? It was not some natural force of the universe. It was a predictable political reaction to Obama’s and the Democrat’s arrogance of power that many of the SAME PEOPLE who elected Obama in 2008, switched their votes to Republicans in 2010.

    In other words, Spike Lee is not the only one who has awakened.

    Obama and the Democrat Party continue to go out of their way to stick their thumbs in the eyes of the American people. We’ll see in less than 90 days if that is a winning strategy.

    Uh, it wasn’t Republicans who gridlocked and blocked SOME of Obama’s decisions (the ones he didn’t just put in by executive order anyway)… It was the AMERICAN PEOPLE! And we’re gonna do it again in November.

    As one person put it on another site…… I can see how my kids would mistake Obama for Jesus… Every time I hear him onj tv speaking I am yelling Jesus Christ !!!!!! what a f*cking moron….

    Personally…I mistake him for the devil. I had no doubt this man was evil from the very start. He is a liar, thug, low class jerk off, know nothing, teleprompter reading scumbug.

    Ok Spikey, go look at every piece of legislation brought before Congress and let’s compare which party blocked more…

    Let’s not forget that the Dems actually changed the locks on committee room doors when the ACA was being worked on–just to keep the Repubs out. That act alone is a sign of a seriously sick group of people.

    And let’s not shed light on the fact that Spike Lee is racist. (I know, black people can’t be racist *eye roll*)

    Amazing… It Only Took Spike Lee 3 1/2 Years to See Obama Is Not God
