further excerpt....

I testified in 2001 and 2002 before a committee of which Obama was a member.

Obama articulately worried that legislation protecting live aborted babies might infringe on women's rights or abortionists' rights. Obama's clinical discourse, his lack of mercy, shocked me. I was naive back then. Obama voted against the measure, twice. It ultimately failed.

In 2003, as chairman of the next Senate committee to which BAIPA was sent, Obama stopped it from even getting a hearing, shelving it to die much like babies were still being shelved to die in Illinois hospitals and abortion clinics.

(As chair of that same committee, Obama once abruptly ended a hearing early, right before Scott and Janet Willis, the parents of six children killed as a result of Illinois' drivers licenses for bribes scandal, were to testify in favor of Choose Life license plate legislation. I was there for that one, too. The Willises had traveled three hours. Reporters filled the room. Obama stalled. He later killed the bill when no one was around.)

After reading this my first thought was Obama, the anti-christ.

All valid reasons, I suppose. But the more obvious reason is that he probably didn’t exist.

I don’t think Jesus would touch American politics with a 50 foot pole, so this a moot point.

You mean Jesus wasn’t a big-government socialist?

I'll post the answer here, so this thread is not sidetracked:

A: Because Barak Obama directly used the public trust in his office as Illinois State Senator, to protect the practice of infanticide.

Jesus doesn’t have a vote. His Kingdom is not of this world.

would jesus even believe in democracy? We are talking about a rabbi who lived 2000 years ago in roman-occupied judea.

It is not clear to me that the background of anyone in that time and place would lend itself to regarding representative government as a good idea. Are the meek to inherit the earth, or are they to be allowed to vote upon the matter?

Hasn’t come up in the Democraic debates.

What are the odds this issue will be discussed between Obama and McCain??

My bet is that while the Maverick might be rough and tough enough to beat up on his “fellow conservatives” in the Republican primary, such questions might be deemed too “indelicate” to discuss on a national platform.

I hope that I am wrong, yet again.

Maybe I could vote for McCain?

Listen all you liberals who read here daily...Jesus ALLOWING someone to do what they please is not GOD’s Endorsement for that activity.

Just a few things you need to consider, walking around saying that the following actions are GOOD because it helps (fill in the blank) is no excuse, but will be dealt with directly one day.

Abortion (The wanton murder of human life for personal convenience)
Homosexuality (The purposeful perversion of intended nature)
socialism (The purposeful destruction of self determination and motivation to succeed robbing from those who produce and giving to mostly people who can do for themselves)
Adultry (Thanks to one liberal its not sex and thus Okay)

We ALL know that the list is longer than this...but liberals do not care. Their goal is to increase the size of the list and replace God with themselves.

Q: Why Jesus would not vote for Barack Obama

A: Because he’s not a US citizen, and wouldn’t vote illegally?

Christ told Peter, who was already a commercial fisherman to ‘fish’ from the ‘right’ side. Oh and Christ also told Peter he was not fishing for literal fish but for mankind.

However, the days seem to have come when there is NOT a whole lot of difference in the left and right side of any boat.
