from "Rules for Radicals" by Saul Alinsky, who deeply influenced Obama.

Don't be so sure. Any half-conscious person knows now what they new before the election about the radical, evil socialistic nature of this administration and congress - and they still voted for them. What is different now?
Hitler only came to power because of the people followed him Obama followers have the same mind set.
“Let me be clear: I am not saying that our public officials are demons. I am saying that they are acting like demons. Demons lie, cheat and steal - obsessively.”
I agree with everything he says in the first paragraph; and, then, he wimps out with the quote above, and that lost me. If they act like demons, which they are doing, they are demons of one kind or another. Don’t wimp out-Obama is here to divide and cause great damage to this once great country-it can be great again, but Obama and his crowd have to be taken down(obligatory, politically, of course.).

Thanks.
Demons can possess a person without his consent.
Messiah of the Church of Whatever Works For Me.
Could you please elaborate (great topic BTW).
Anything other than this would violate the basic but universal "law of free will."
This position is supported by many, many discussions with theologians, priests, and ministers and by writers on the topic of possession and exorcism like Malachi Martin (Hostage to the Devil) and, to a lesser degree, Scott Peck (People of the Lie).
That said, it is possible that something, some exception, has been overlooked.
I don’t believe that the average voter that voted for them knew what they were all about. They voted for a novel idea of having a black as President without looking at the individual and what he stood for. However, they are learning real fast.
Indeed.
” Evil has clearly taken over our country. “
Yes, it has. You’d like David Kupelian’s new (Feb. 2010) book, “How Evil Works”.
It offers solutions to these things.
The only Person with the power to control the fallen angels is Jesus Christ and if a person chooses not to accept Him as Savior, then they are vulnerable to anything happening to them and they have no way to defend themselves and no protection.
That said, there are many people wobbling at the Crossroads...and Satan is working on them feverishly (just as God stands stalwart like a Rock, ready to open the doors of Salvation to those who will accept Him).
But ultimately, acceptance of evil goes hand-in-hand with the rejection of God.
The one thing I have noticed about the successful exorcisms I have read about and heard about is that the possessed is, by the process of the rite itself (and by the Power of the Name of Jesus), taken back by God (but that too requires a decision, an agreement, on the part of the possessed).
Let’s Add the following:
Isaiah 41:10 (God is speaking): “Do not fear (or look around in terror), for I am with you. Do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with My victorious right hand.”
God gave me this scripture on 9/11.
As we all know well, acceptance of our Savior does not stop Satan from pouring on the temptation.
And I have seen some people I thought were so incredible lost they could never be saved miraculously turn to Jesus when they hit bottom.
Demons cannot possess a person who is saved because that person is indwelt by the Holy Spirit and are therefore protected. Demons, as we know, tremble and flee before God and can't stand to be in His presence.
No one is beyond the salvation that Christ offers provided they choose to respond to the wooing of the Holy Spirit. There have been hard-core atheists who have chosen the freedom and forgiveness offered by Christ so there is nobody who can't be redeemed.
Amen.
