An Alan Keyes Two-fer

In video from CBS-2, Alan Keyes
  1. tells us how Jesus would vote and
  2. accuses Barack Obama of using "the language of the master who, when he is displeased with the slave, gives him a whipping."
The video is here
(It's entitled "Keyes Says Jesus Would Not Vote For Obama")

Update from Channel 5:
"Christ would not stand idly by while an infant child in that situation died," Keyes said. "And I'm not the only person, obviously, who thinks if you are a representative of me, I cannot vote for you if you would ignore the dignity and claims of that child's life. So, yes, I did respond quite logically -- you'll see it's quite logical, right -- with the conclusion that Christ would not vote for Barack Obama, because Barack Obama has voted to behave in a way that it is inconceivable for Christ to have behaved."
Update from AP:
Keyes, whose rhetoric concerning gay marriage and abortion has stunned Illinois Republican Party leaders, said Obama's use of the word spanking was "colorful language" and is "the language of the master who, when he is displeased with the slave, gives him a whipping." *** "Christ would not vote for Barack Obama because Barack Obama has voted to behave in a way that it is inconceivable for Christ to have behaved," Keyes said.
