He ventured forth to bring light to the world
The Times (London) ^ | July 25, 2008 | Gerard Baker

And it came to pass, in the eighth year of the reign of the evil Bush the Younger (The Ignorant), when the whole land from the Arabian desert to the shores of the Great Lakes had been laid barren, that a Child appeared in the wilderness.

The Child was blessed in looks and intellect. Scion of a simple family, offspring of a miraculous union, grandson of a typical white person and an African peasant. And yea, as he grew, the Child walked in the path of righteousness, with only the occasional detour into the odd weed and a little blow.

Dang, I thought you were posting a link to the video of the author reading it on Hannity and Colmes. Instead it’s just the same ol’ same ol’.

Here is the REAL light. Second reading for Sunday, August 3rd.

Reading II
Rom 8:35, 37-39

Brothers and sisters:
What will separate us from the love of Christ?
Will anguish, or distress, or persecution, or famine,
or nakedness, or peril, or the sword?
No, in all these things we conquer overwhelmingly
through him who loved us.
For I am convinced that neither death, nor life,
nor angels, nor principalities,
nor present things, nor future things,
nor powers, nor height, nor depth,
nor any other creature will be able to separate us
from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The amazing thing is, if you read the comments after the article, the Obamaites think it is a positive piece!

Well, yes, of course they would.

After all, it make more sense than the crap they've been listening to from Obama!

Funny piece, from someone who must be Bible-familiar.

Funnier still, right off the bat, the first reader comment:

I enjoyed this very much. However, it can be read not as satire, but as truth. We need leaders who can inspire us. It's been a long time.

Dude, if you think this piece is truth, you're in bad shape.
