They Whisper To The Priest, "Father, I'm Not Going To Vote For Obama"

[Mr. Silverback]

Remember that much of New Hampshire is covered by Massachusetts media markets.

Of course, the fact that he’s having to fight for New Hampshire (which went blue last time out even though Bush won by a much wider margin elsewhere than in 2000) and that McCain and Palin are showing up there a lot tells me that he’s going to have problems all over. I hope it’s enough.

[Mr. Silverback]

I was polled the other day and after I told the woman that I was voting for McCain and a Repub in a local race, she said “You just have a wonderful day now” with her teeth clenched and hung up. If that’s the attitude one gets, it’s no wonder people might not want to tell the truth.

When the AP polled me during the GOP convention the lady was absolutely a pleasure to speak with, and betrayed not a single tell for or against my opinions. Very professional.

I want to answer this question you asked:

How could any religious person vote for a guy who believes in infanticide, on top of what we already know about his character?

Three weeks ago I had a discussion with a good friend. She is quite religious and moral. Yet the results of our discussion left me physically ill. You see, she will vote for obama, despite his baby killing and thieving ways, because he will help more people than McCain. And as Christians we have to help people, right?

And there, sir, you have your answer. A good Catholic woman was failed by her Church. She was not properly taught the most fundamental elements of her faith. With her goes America.

I live in a neighborhood of cops and firemen. They might be democrats but they aint gonna let our street burn. You can take that to the bank.

[bradthebuilder]

Dude, your own daugther said that? Oh, it is so hard to be a good parent....

[bradthebuilder]

I can’t cite the appropriate section, but there are folks here who can show you that the Cathechism of the Catholic Church is not 100% against the death penalty. I think it has something do with the ability to be reformed and resist sin again.

Hoping that many, many see the difference between a Democrat and a Marxist insurgent.

Yesterday I was at a food court of an interstate rest stop. The young, black man working behind the counter asked if I was voting for Obama or McCain. I said, “I’m a Republican, I’m for McCain.”

I was tempted to say ‘none of your business’ but decided I’d rather answer. What he thought of that answer, I don’t know. Nor do I care.

I’m driving in suburban Cook County, Illinois and saw a car with a Kerry-Edwards bumper sticker, a sticker bashing Bush BUT NO OBAMA STICKER.

The next political argument I get in with a family member might be last one because I’ll be done with them.

I know how you feel. I believe the Lord is doing this separating on purpose. He wants to know, who will stay true to Him. Our votes may well be the measure of us.

I am very upset with my family, they are so deluded. With this vote they will have joined hands with the Devil, and they are so deceived they won't figure it out until it's too late. My warnings fell on deaf ears and I only incurred their wrath for daring to criticize their new Messiah.

What they are really saying, is that they believe in Obama more than they believe in Jesus. However it won't be Obama who will be sitting on the Throne of Glory looking sternly at them on Judgment Day. They are selling their salvation to the Devil for pottage (i.e. universal health care). They won't even get that.
