Just because SiriusXM host and alleged comedian Dean Obeidallah isn’t Catholic doesn’t mean he can’t still put out hot Ash Wednesday takes.
While we couldn’t actually see his face as he wrote this tweet out and hit send, we can still picture the look of smug self-satisfaction and hear the sounds of him snickering to himself about how clever he is.
Because only the cleverest sort of person could come up with something like this:
Manchin and Sinema are to the Democrats what Judas was to Jesus.#AshWednesday

Topical! At least we think it’s supposed to be …
Brilliant analysis or something.

We’re a bit fuzzy on that ourselves.
My fave part of this tweet is we get the whole analogy, like if you called Manchema “Judas,” we’d be like “Judas who?” https://t.co/XNtdhpdwm8

Judas Sullivan or…?
— Mary Katharine Ham (@mkhammer) March 2, 2022

Sorry … Dean literally cannot help himself.
If this is your take for Ash Wednesday, I suggest you read about Ash Wednesday again.

This isn’t it, for a litany of reasons.

This analogy is bad and you should feel bad. https://t.co/1HGEoQojFc

Way to compare the Democrat party to Jesus Christ. Unreal. https://t.co/eoxDh5z2zL

I’m not even a Christian anymore and this offends me. How dare you compare Manchin and Sinema to a man that betrayed another (especially Jesus, of all) for money?! https://t.co/vcepwtIh59

It certainly is interesting — not to mention insightful — when someone whose M.O. includes mocking the faithful turns around and uses their religion to make what’s supposed to be a valid and valuable political point.
This is so incredibly stupid. https://t.co/RzUBVx2icg pic.twitter.com/tSnix21LQR

Fact-check: true.
We could sit here all day trying to figure that out and still not come even close to scratching the surface.
But this seems like a good diagnosis to start with:

Most likely beyond repair.
