We're conservatives, we pay our own way.
Times are tough on a lot of us, but if you've got a job, really, $5 a month? You're going to miss that? How about turning off the lights when you leave the room? How about dropping the thermostat a degree while you're not at home? How about skipping that fancy pants coffee twice a month?
All we're asking for is $5 a month. Get out that wallet, input your Debit/Credit card #, set up a monthly and forget about it.
If this ham-n-egger can be a dollar a day guy, you can pony up $0.17 a day. Seventeen cents a day for all the time you spend on FR?
Cerainly, a bargain at twice the price, don't you agree?
You'll feel much better about your time on FR.
What a powerful piece.....that, of course, will be roundly ignored by the Western media.
At the end of the article:
“He quoted British 17th century statesman Edmund Burke, who said, “The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.”
Daubenmire said that in America, “good men have yielded power to evil men.”
“Evil rules when evil men make the rules,” he said.”
Wow. Maybe this will catch on?
We could use a president who is able to admit that he and our nation needs to repent.
Let’s get this guy over here for a speaking tour.
Good grief! They’d run Barack Obama out of their country on a rail.
Don’t forget to vote at the end of the article.
Should a president offer public prayers of repentance for his nation’s sins?
Of course not! There’s no god, so the prayer is a total waste of time
No, “sin” doesn’t exist – it’s just a cultural construct created by society’s elites to psychologically repress everyone else
No, a president is elected to exercise political, not spiritual, authority
No, with so many religions and a wide range of belief and unbelief among citizens, such a prayer can only cause offense
No, prayer is a personal matter
No, each of us must repent for our own sins – no one else can do it for us
No, public exercise of religion has a way of becoming a hypocritical display to get noticed by others and not a sincere appeal to God
It couldn’t hurt
Yes, but if most political leaders were truly repentant, they’d have to resign after confessing their own sins
Yes, but I don’t see it happening – today’s leaders are getting elected by validating sin, not condemning it
Yes, a leader who is repentant before God is far less likely to be a proud, arrogant tyrant
Yes, the Bible says a ruler’s authority is given by God so we may live quiet, peaceable lives – when sin disrupts that, the ruler is answerable to God
Yes. God is real, sin is real, it’s consequences are destroying us and repentence is our only hope – any “leader” worth the name should be eager to pray
Yes. We’ve seen how God judges us when our leaders are wicked – perhaps he will bless us if our leaders repent and acknowledge Him

Homosexual activist groups have criticized the government of Uganda and Museveni for passing laws criminalizing homosexual behavior. A current bill before the Ugandan Parliament increases the jail sentences for homosexual acts and includes criminal penalties for those who encourage or promote homosexuality.
The bill had included the death penalty for those who commit multiple acts of homosexual behavior, but the provision has been removed, BBC News reports.
So all that stuff is gone away now?
No more ubangi in Uganda?!?!?!?
Now, if only we could get our Kenyan "president" to do the same.
Killing them for being gay doesn't work for me, and I am pretty sure Christ would be unhappy about it as well.
A far cry from the Uganda of Idi Admin Dada’s days !
And for those repulsed by the notion of visiting World Net Daily, here’s more of what he said:
“Forgive us of sins of pride, tribalism and sectarianism; sins of laziness, indifference and irresponsibility; sins of corruption and bribery that have eroded our national resources; sins of sexual immorality, drunkenness and debauchery; sins of unforgiveness, bitterness, hatred and revenge; sins of injustice, oppression and exploitation; sins of rebellion, insubordination, strife and conflict,” Museveni prayed.
Next, the president dedicated Uganda to God.
“We want to dedicate this nation to you so that you will be our God and guide. We want Uganda to be known as a nation that fears God and as a nation whose foundations are firmly rooted in righteousness and justice to fulfill what the Bible says in Psalm 33:12: Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord. A people you have chosen as your own,” Museveni prayed.
