No arrogance like religious arrogance...”

“Pops does seem to be full of his view of himself as THE man of God and all alone. All he really is, is a quitter.

I can’t remember his name, but there was a prophet in the bible who ran and hide in a caves, believing he was the last man of God. God then told him he was wrong. There were thousands who hadn’t bent their knee to ba’al.

Sound like anyone we know? But I wouldn’t compared him to a biblical prophet.”

I happen to be a woman. (POPs= parachutist over 40.) I have been actively interceding for our country since the 1980s, pretty much daily. God wants us to repent, but we don’t, so we get Romney or Obama, virtually the same thing. With refusing to repent, we’re getting judgement whether under Romney or Obama. I won’t vote for a slightly lighter shade of evil, period.

Then you’ve quite. You’ve given up on the belief that anything can turn around and accepted this horrible world you see. You’ve given up on believing God can turn things around and you’re just waiting to die. Remember that God said the race is to those who finish the race.

Well, I’ll go with my brothers and sisters on FR that still want to fight. This may be a fight we can’t win. But I would rather fight a hopeless battle, and even make mistakes in the fight, than surrender. You talk about repentance. Most of us do repent. We also stand against sin every day. I’ve lost count of the number of times I discuss the selfishness of abortion. But all we can do is the best we can do. And trust God with the rest. We trust God to take what effort we give and do something great. It may be that this nation is doomed to a slow death. The bible said that in the last days, it would be as in the days of Noah.

You aren’t the only person disappointed in Romney. I felt like throwing up. I often use the joke about three men walk into a bar. A business man, a liberal, and a conservative. the bar tender says, “Hello Mitt.”
If you have a better plan to serve this country, I’d love to hear it. I almost threw up my hands too and said, “Go ahead and reelect Obama.” But I won’t quit doing what I can. Right now, that means pinching my nose for Romney, and voting to primary him in 2016.

If it helps, think of it this way. All of the liberals and far lefty's hate Romney so he must be doing something right. Also, if you think he was so easily swayed to left in the Communist Land of Massachusetts, think how easily he can be pulled to the right because he has to count on the conservative vote in order to be elected and then reelected. The libs aren't going to support him at all. They hate him. With a Republican house and hopefully Senate, we can do wonders with the Kenyan in chief gone. But with only a possible slim majority in the Senate, Congress could never override the Obama veto. I do not believe for one instance Romney would veto Tea Party and Republican driven legislation to repeal Obamacare and to pass a more conservative friendly agenda. With 4 more years of Obama, we would more then likely never see Obamacare overturned.
