Barack Obama a man for change
Over the weekend a firestorm of criticism of Mike Huckabee has taken place because of his remarks about Obama. Huckabee giving a speech to the NRA on Friday said “That was Barack Obama. He just tripped off a chair. He's getting ready to speak and somebody aimed a gun at him and he _ he dove for the floor.” Now the media thinks and thought it would be appropriate for him to apologize. http://www.foxnews.com/wires/2008May16/0,4670,HuckabeeObama,00.html
However, in the context of Michelle Obama's remarks that “As a black man, Barack can get shot going to the gas station” Huckabee’s comments were appropriate. http://mediamatters.org/items/200801160005 Shot??? By who, his white racist grandmother?
If Michelle Obama is going to say such idiotic statements with such asininity, absurdity and false characterizations of the lives the Obama’s live in the black, community then it is fair game to criticize them in any fashion the critics deem appropriate. The Obama’s do not get to reinvent the rules and use the race card whenever convenient
. Remember free speech protects controversial and unpopular speech as there is no need to defend speech that would make you politically popular. Politically correct speech in America is say what you want, because people have died defending that right. This notion of PC is an oxymoron, as politically we have free speech and it “shall not be infringed”, even when the Obama’s don’t like it.
Michelle Obama is the one who should apologize… Barack should apologize for lying. Huckabee was pointing out the absurdity of Michelle’s statements, to an audience at a gun show filled with people who have lost many of their (gun) rights to liberal liars like the Obama’s.
Just a couple of weeks ago Obama chastised Hillary, calling her Annie Oakley etc. That was supposed to be funny and Huckabee’s remarks are offensive?
So the real question in this story is: When is John McCain going to apologize for hearing the Huckabee statement? He’s apologized for everything else the republicans have said or done up to this date.
Obama has reached the status of god, as no one dares challenge him or they be faced with the term racist. The only apology that Huckabee should be giving is to the American people for back peddling after making his statement about Obama. At least have the fortitude to stand by what you say. Advice for Huckabee: say what you mean and mean what you say. That is why Huckabee was not nominated to represent the republicans, he’s wish washy. So is McCain, but we cannot talk about him either because he is old.

Barack Obama for President?
Barack Obama’s pastor Reverend Wright in recent comments said “G—D---- America! It’s in the bible” which if you search the entire bible you will find no reference to G—D--- or references to the new world or America in it whatsoever. Yet while claiming to know and understand the bible Wright and the Trinity United Church of Christ promotes; not tolerates….PROMOTES homosexuality. http://www.tucc.org/ministries.htm On Saturdays they will hook up single homosexuals, in the church.
You won’t find G-- D--- America in the bible; However, you will find: 1 Corinthians 6:9 “Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders”.
Romans 1:27 “In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.”
Jude 1:7 “7just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, since they in the same way as these indulged in gross immorality and went after strange flesh, are exhibited as an example in undergoing the punishment of eternal fire.”
Leviticus 20:13 “13 " 'If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.”
Genesis 19:5 “They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them."
6 Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him 7 and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing. 8 Look, I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do what you like with them. But don't do anything to these men, for they have come under the protection of my roof." 9 "Get out of our way," they replied. And they said, "This fellow came here as an alien, and now he wants to play the judge! We'll treat you worse than them." They kept bringing pressure on Lot and moved forward to break down the door.”
One could argue if the lesson, on Sodom and Gomorrah was about homosexuality or just having wicked heart. However, the fact that homosexuality is an outward sign of a wicked heart the point would be moot; considering that homosexuality is a statement to God that you want it your way and not Gods way regardless of the consequences.
Reverend Wright and anyone who would tolerate the teaching of such heresies should never be considered a great leader, an honest person, nor should they have any opportunity to lead the greatest nation in the world or much less be looked at with Reverence.
1 Timothy 1:3 “As I urged you when I went into Macedonia, stay there in Ephesus so that you may command certain persons not to teach false doctrines any longer” and
2 Peter 2:1 “But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves.” That is in the bible and Reverend Wright should repent for such destructive teachings.
Barack has been a member of the Trinity United Church of Christ for 20 years and yet waited until yesterday, after falling in the polls while running for “President” of the Damned United States and extensive scrutiny of his own ideology from the media and his peers that are also running for President. Barack has been linked to terrorist “William Ayers” when asked about it acted as if associations should not play a part in politics. Coming from a guy like Obama, who has been extremely critical of Vice President Dick Cheney on his ties to Halliburton; can Obama be taken seriously? He only yesterday denounced the Reverend Wright comments after recently falling in the polls.
Obama accused Hillary and John McCain of playing politics because the two are proposing tax cuts on gas purchased over the summer months to try to provide temporary relief for consumers. Obama said “"It would last for three months and it would save you on average half a tank of gas, $25 to $30. That's what Senator Clinton and Senator McCain are proposing to deal with the gas crisis. This isn't an idea designed to get you through the summer, it's an idea designed to get them through an election.” Coming from a guy Barack I won’t wear an American flag lapel, who only yesterday denounced Wright for his anti-American statements….blames the Jews for the plight of the African Americans…..blames the CIA for the drug problems in America. Talk about Politics.
Obama for President? No thanks!

Sgt. Violates "don't ask don't tell"
Army Sgt. Darren Manzella is breaking the military policy of “don’t ask don’t tell”.
Manzella has stated “It has never affected my job performance before. I don't think it will make a difference now. And to be honest since then, I don't see a difference because of my homosexuality."- http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080109/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/military_gays&printer=1;_ylt=AqGfpJvAlgN6iQ.1IN9DccKWwvIE
Manzella says that he doesn’t see a difference of being a homosexual, but then he goes out of his way to bring up the fact that he is a homosexual. If being a homosexual does not affect his job, then why bring it up?
Further, it is not Manzella that the policy was created for; it is the other non-homosexual soldiers surrounding him that have the issue. “Don’t ask don’t tell” wasn’t for the protection of homosexuals, it was to eliminate distraction to non-homosexuals that would serve along side of homosexuals. This is not about homosexuality. It is about insubordination.
Please demand the president bring charges against him: comments@whitehouse.gov

Truth about the homosexual agenda
Why so much focus in the media on hate crimes legislation? Because the people backing the bill are lying. In fact the number one group on the FBI’s site is homosexuals right? Wrong! The number one group is Race: 55.7 percent of the victims were targeted because of a bias against a race and the race targeted the most was blacks at 67.9.
The next highest group targeted was religious groups at 16% and the number one religious target was Jews at 69.5%. The next highest group targeted was ethnic groups 14% and the highest targeted ethnic group was Hispanic at 58.8%. The next group reported was sexual orientation at 13.8% ant the highest group targeted were male homosexuals at 61.3%, but what is funny is that heterosexuals were targeted by homosexuals at 1.9%. Homosexuals were second to last, the last being people targeting those with disabilities which rings in a 0.6%. http://www.fbi.gov/ucr/hc2005/victims.htm
By this they should not be calling it the Matthew Sheppard bill, considering blacks are the number one targets of hate crimes category a full 41.9 points higher than homosexuals.
Compare this with the statistics provided by The Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays website which states a number that is astronomically higher than the FBI hate crimes statistics “The statistics reported by the NAVP differ greatly from those reported by official government sources. It is generally recognized that official sources under-represent GLBT bias related crimes by as much as 75% as victims are often afraid to report the incident to the authorities for fear of further discrimination, and harassment, or for fear of disclosure of their sexual orientation or gender identity to families or employers.” www.pflag.com That’s it? The crime goes unreported is the best argument they have? We can play that game all day long; more blacks would report the crime except they fear retaliation, more Jews, more Hispanics, Christians etc, etc. This is nothing but smoke and mirrors. The fact is homosexuals don’t have the facts on their side so they modify the results to fit their agenda.
So why is such a big deal being made about Federal hate crimes legislation and lies about homosexuals being the number one target; to the point that they are calling the bill the Matthew Sheppard bill? Answer is that the homosexual lobby is getting more and more powerful with sponsors like: IBM, MetLife, Citigroup, Dow, American Airlines, Logo network, PepsiCo, Motorola, Orbitz, Comcast communications and General Motors and many more. Truly congress has access to the real statistics, but they are bold faced lying to the American public because it is always the squeaky wheel that gets the grease. The homosexual lobby is in the face of the media and government giving a daily barrage of propaganda. The networks are co-conspirators, just turn on the TV and look at the programming on the air, you would deduce by an hours worth of channel surfing that there are no heterosexuals left on earth. So what happened to the heterosexuals? They are being blindsided by a homosexual attack to rid America of traditional family values. We are inundated by homosexuals in the media.
In California Arnold Schwarzenegger just signed legislation that classifies “gender” as self identity. So is school bathrooms “gender” specific? Will there be little boy’s going in the girl’s room and visa versa? It depends on the “gender” identity of that particular child. Don’t fall for the lies take action and write your congressman and senator and President and tell them no to hate crimes legislation. Senate.gov and house.gov
Also write President Bush and tell him to veto hate crimes legislation: comments@whitehouse.gov

You will embrace the homosexual doctrine! HR 3685
Barney Frank House Representative from Massachusetts fourth district has introduced a bill to give special protections to homosexuals. This is the same guy who ran a escort service out of his home some years back.
H.R.3685 Title: To prohibit employment discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. But homosexuals are already protected against discrimination in the work place. We are creating two classes in America, and one is being elevated above everyone else.
Homosexuals do not need special protection, expressing ones sexuality does not belong in the workplace unless you are a pornographer. Personally sexuality, heterosexual or homosexual is not a job qualification. In other words if you talk about sex at work there is no doubt that someone will be offended and therefore keep your private life private and your public life professional and so everyone is on an equal playing field. This is just common courtesy and would go a lot further then congress passing legislation that forces Americans to listen to someone’s sexual life in the workplace.
If someone is interested in your sexuality they will ask and that will open the door for discussion without offense, but if they do not ask do not impose it upon them. People get paid to work at work, not discuss sexuality; what are we trying to accomplish turning the workplace into the Disney Epcot center?
Write your representative and tell them vote no on H.R.3685 http://www.house.gov/ Then call Barney and tell him we don't need his morality. (202) 225-5931

Failures in the Church
What is going on with the church today? From inviting worldly non-believing speakers to uniting along side heretics to popularize the church of today, it shouldn’t come as any surprise that we are seeing scandal after scandal in the church of today. Everything from Jim and Tammy Baker, David Koresh and the Branch Davidians, Ted Hagert last year and not in the least of which, child molestation. Which just weeks after the Catholic Church paid out a $600,000,000 settlement, a Dardene, Missouri Church faces allegations of sexual misconduct with a 12 or 13 year old girl by one of their Deacons Jerry Glenn Crabdree. And last year a Shawn Davies, a 33 year old Baptist Music Minister was convicted of child abuse including statutory sodomy.
Jesus calls us to Repent Matthew 4:17 From that time on Jesus began to preach, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near." No matter what eschatological view point you hold, whether you believe that Jesus will pre-tribulational rapture or whether you hold to the Amillennial that this will be the same day of judgment for believers and non-believers, is irrelevant. On the day we meet the Lord, we better be ready to be judged. There won’t be a second chance.
The apostate church since the beginning has been giving people a watered down gospel and mixing worldly thoughts with the Christian faith and trying to make the two mesh. The problem is that they don’t. In Christianity there is only one right view and that is that the only way to heaven is through Jesus’ salvific work on the cross.
Calling Jesus your Savior and Lord means a transformation has taken place in our lives that is shown by our works. This change happens in a moment of time Acts 9:3 Saul was instantly transformed. If you are living a life that does not illustrate a transformation, it would be a good idea to ask to yourself “do I really believe that Jesus is my savior”. Because remember there is a huge difference between saying you are sorry and repenting; sorry has a host of meanings, such as you may be sorry you were caught. Repenting means turning away from the sins that God convicts our hearts of i.e. you stop and change your ways. Other wise what good is it to know the difference between right and wrong. Even secular people set laws into place that are designed to bring awareness and punishment to sins.
The Church today tells only about Gods love for the sinner but the bible has so much more for us to learn about. In fact Jesus talked about hell more than heaven. God is very complex; he’s love, but he’s also hate; he’s justice and mercy. God hates our wicked ways. And Gods love also allows us to be eternally separated from him by our choosing to not accept his love and grace freely. I know it maybe hard for some to believe, but in the end we may not see people that we expected to see in heaven. 1 Corinthians 6:8 tells us “Do not be deceived.” If you want to know what that means you need to ask the question who is he talking to? It wasn’t God, so who is he saying it to? He’s saying it to us, because in the end our clever arguments that we throw out to convince people that what we may be doing isn’t wrong, won’t cut it with God. So it means if you are arguing that maybe there is another way, God is saying don’t be deceived or don’t deceive yourself, because God isn’t fooled by our deceit.
The church needs to take corrective action within the church to avoid falling into heresy. Before you can understand you are saved the church needs to teach what you are saved from; the bible makes it very clear. Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. We all deserve to spend eternity in hell, but if we accept Jesus as our savior we are accepting Romans 6:23 “23For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. We are Clothed in his righteousness, lets start acting like it.
2 Timothy 2:15 “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.” There was a line some years back from the movie Love Story that said “True love means never having to say you are sorry.” That is just wrong; a love for Jesus is an awareness that you have much to be remorseful over and it is time to repent. 2 Timothy 4:2 “Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.” If there is no repenting, correcting and rebuking, how are we ever going to change? Remember works are an outward expression of an inward faith.

We all deserve to spend eternity in hell, but if we accept Jesus as our savior we are accepting Romans 6:23 “23For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. We are Clothed in his righteousness, lets start acting like it.
2 Timothy 2:15 “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.” There was a line some years back from the movie Love Story that said “True love means never having to say you are sorry.” That is just wrong; a love for Jesus is an awareness that you have much to be remorseful over and it is time to repent. 2 Timothy 4:2 “Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.” If there is no repenting, correcting and rebuking, how are we ever going to change? Remember works are an outward expression of an inward faith.
