Exactly...

How can ANYONE! attend a church for 20 Years and listen to the SAME Pastor and not know what the Pastor believes, and what the Church stands for?

He is asking us to Buy a Huge crock of Crap!

Downs was correct, Obama has made some flaky
decisions.
This is a good article, I enjoyed every word.

Add in his friendship with an unrepentant TERRORIST....

that, too, shows he does NOT have the JUDGMENT to be President.

Indeed.

That’s one of the first things I do when look at a perspective church, ask what they stand for.

It’s amazing some of the whacked answers out there. Many pastors can’t even answer the question “What is the Gospel?”

Am I missing something?

The article WND links to is attributed to a “J.R. Dunn”.

J.R. Dunn = Hugh Downs?

I noticed that too. There’s a Hugh Downs ad next to the article on the American Thinker page, but as far as I can tell, that’s his only connection to it.

Les Kinsolving has made a major error in this article.

The article he is quoting was not written by Hugh Downs, but was written by J.R.Dunn!

There is an advertising for things Hugh Downs is sponsoring right below the title... but he is not the author.

Good article, but not by the icon of the US Media that Kinsolving seems to think.

This is pretty good.

We will be entering a twilight zone of smear against Palin/McCain in the next few days.

It is past time to look back at these existing Obama questions. They were never “vetted”, we just lost interest or felt guilty about asking them, but in the wake of Palin attacks, the nation no longer will give him that break.

I don’t know how Hugh Downs got wrapped up in this- the article cited as his is actually one by J.R. Dunn at The American Thinker:

All right. Now I understand. I block ads for most sites, so I didn’t see it.

A flake is not only a screw-up, but someone who truly excels in making bizarre errors and creating incredibly convoluted disasters. A flake is a "fool with energy," as the Russian proverb puts it.

Reminds me of a quote from some WWII German general. He said there 4 types of officers: 1) Those who were intelligent and hard-working were the most desirable, and should be promoted to staff officers. 2) Those who were intelligent and lazy often had the best ideas, and should be listened to. 3) Those who were stupid and lazy were no cause for worry. They did very little harm because everyone ignored them anyway, and worked around them. 4) But those who were stupid and hard-working were the most dangerous kind. They could do the most damage to the army. As soon as they were recognized, they must be transferred somewhere where they could do no harm.

This is an outstanding article...probably the best I’ve seen regarding this fraud of a presidential candidate.

Good article by JR Dunn. Not Hugh Downs.

I agree, Obama is a flake.

Whether Obama or McCain is elected, the final decision rests with the American voter and right now I wouldn’t bet on the outcome either way.

Good observations, but the byline on the original article was J.R. Dunne, not Hugh Downs.
