Foxx proclaimed on TV and in front a large audience, "First of all, give an honor to God and our lord and savior Barack Obama....BARACK OBAMA! C'mon, stand up for him!"
Foxx did not appear to be joking nor did he act like it was a sarcastic comment.
Now it looks like Foxx is facing a boycott by some of his fans. On twitter, several fans made it clear that they would no longer watch anything he does. Examiner has the full details here on his raging fans.
A Catholic group called the Catholic League of Religious and Civil Rights in the United States had some choice words for Foxx. Bill Donohue said in a press statement: "Foxx's epiphany is startling. It just goes to show that even though Obama did not succeed in stopping the oceans from rising (as he promised to do in 2008), he did succeed in convincing Jamie Foxx, and no doubt legions of others, that God exists. Whether God can survive an ACLU lawsuit accusing him of violating church and state grounds remains to be seen."
Foxx has yet to respond to Donohue or respond to why he said what he said. This goes beyond conservatives or liberal, this is proclaiming that the president is God.
