GOVERNOR RICK PERRY’S PRAYER EVENT IRKS THE LEFT

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At first I was gonna reply that “It irks some on the right too”. But really. You can be an atheist and a strict Constitutionalist and still have no problem with what Gov. Perry did.

God Bless Perry.

We desperately need all the help we can get. I think it is great when people pray. It should happen more often.

Good post. Perry has as much as anyone else to go to prayer meeting and to pray.

Good for the Christians who showed up by the thousands.

The left is reacting to something they sense: the focus of the prayer includes them, and God might actually break through their depraved shell and give some of them a heart of flesh.

IOW, they realize it’s an attack on the strongholds of darkness.

“At least 30,000 Christians turned out for the prayer event at Reliant Stadium in Houston.”

Emphasis on “at least”: my folks were there and said the organizers had opened the top section because the field chairs and the first two levels were full by the time they left. He also said it was truly apolitical, and Perry made sure to expressly say so. He spoke, prayed and did not try to make the event anything other than a prayer meeting.

Impressive.

I posted this in a thread about the topic yesterday:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2760134/posts?page=7#7

happened first thing Sunday when i walked into the gym, heard it from a left wing lunatic ...”well i guess Perry won’t be the GOP nominee”..”oh?” i asked- “he’s a religious zealot- no one will vote for him”...

i laughed- “yeh- but they’re gonna re-elect a left wing ideologue that’s brought us constant 9% unemployment, unsustainable deficits and $4/gallon gas”....”Perry will destroy obama- left wing media or not” i finished up with...

The left irks me,,, but i never see stories in the news about how they irk me. And not to put too fine of a point on it,,, but the prayer rally had no impact on them at all. They could ignore it and go be a liberal the same as always.

When they do socialist things, i lose personal freedom, to speak, to travel, to act as i please, to keep what i earn, to own a gun, to drive a car, to flush a working toilet, to screw in a light bulb, to set my thermostat to 72, to eat what i please,,etc. So, yeah,,,im irked.

It could irk anyone on the right. Perry could be as phony as Clinton carrying a big Bible to church, just to please the social conservatives in this country.

"Rick Perry's Prayer Event" ?

This was Rick Perry's event? The Governor of Texas had a prayer event?

If you want to make a liberal go totally nuts, send them a link to FDR’s D-Day prayer:

My first question is, has Perry had prayer meetings, in the past, as Governor?

I only ask because I have a problem with, not only politicians, but businesses who use religion as part of their television and radio ad’s.

As a man of faith, I don’t patronize these business because I feel they are USING religion as a tool.

IF Governor Perry falls into this category then I’ll look elsewhere for someone else to support as a presidential candidate.
