I cannot speak to those that openly show hate for Obama, but to do so is not we as christians are called to do.
Much of what is disliked is the approach, causes and legislation that is being forced apon this nation. The media supports this and as a result much of what is seen on tv or publisized is not acurate.
His support polls show him as low as 18% , and at best 28%. Depending on who has done the poll.
What most of the debate is about is to much goverment, and the loss of personal responcabuility.
Many do support a medical program, but the one perposed is not acceptable. I know first hand what it like to be homeless and what it takes to overcome that situation. We also had no ins, this was several yrs ago, but at that time private contributions were comonplace and helped us to pay most if not all of our bills. Reciently I was helping another that was in a simular situation, when I called to find out about what help was available the sources were severely limited. Not because of the lack of support but because our goverment has made these contributions so difficult to do that many have just looked for other places to donate. Essentually making all dependent on the goverment by force. Most of the donations now go out of the country now because it is easyer to give out of the US than in.
The most frustrating part is the this goverment believes that they know better than the public about what is good for us.
To have this mentality in leadership that has liitle if mostly questionable faith in God does not leave alot of confidence in their choices.
There is alot in the small print that will lead to a social breakdown in time. When people no longer are motivated to care for themselves you soon have a society of failier. In certain states in this country where a socialist based goverment has been in practice, these states have developed the highest poverty levals and lowest buisness developement of any other state.
Any ways, the issue is not wanting to provide for those in real need, it is providing for those that choose to need, and a goverment that is willing to
buy their vote.
This has never been a case of big money wanting more, or wanting to deny help where it is truelly needed. This is a case of indivigual right to strive for what is good and true.
Any person with common sence knows that if you give some one to much without their earning it, knows it leads to that indiviguals personal destrution.
Finnally, from the point of one that loves Our Lord Jesus, the mentallity of this goverment is to deny the rights of the faithfull. One can see the subtle moves that diirection every day. That will always be a right that we must stand in faith for.
Saddly, on tv last night a sudent won the right to have his photo kept in the school yearbook that said, G-d is dead. But at that same school if a student were to wear a shirt saying God is Alive! That sudent would be required to remove the shirt or leave the school, possibly being santioned for their choice.
The hate that some show is wrong, but little is shown of the many good people that stand with dignity and grace against this administration.
Media has worked to show a demented right wing religious crazed group. When the true voice is muted.
All need to be sure of what they are learning these days, truth is hard to find.
Thank goodness, we have Our Lord Jesus!
God bless, pickles

WOW... ABSOLUTE truth! Can I substitue everything I took so long to type with this ?? :p
Amen and thank you for writing.

The reason the United States of America started was because we felt that the responsibilities of the government as an entity should be limited in order to ensure of the freedoms and personal responsibilities of the people. Government provisions come with strings attached, ALWAYS. This is why Americans rejected the system they were under in Europe and very carefully wrote the rules which restrain this government's involvement. Sadly, the biggest reasons we're in the mess we are is because those restrictions on the role of government have been ignored.

American's aren't opposed to helping those who can't help themselves. We're against the principle of punishing those willing to work to reward those who are not. It's a system that, by following the nature of those who founded this country (still generally preserved, although sluggish) we have rejected. There is an inherant cost in asking that people be accountable and responsible for themselves. There is a bigger cost in instisting that no one need be. We only ask to retain the freedom to make that distinction ourselves. As lovers of Christ, you and I step in and bridge that gap. As a country, no other has provided for others more than we have. Those of us who take care of our needy blame already excessive government for hindering us from doing more.

The pilgrims who founded america would all roll in their graves at america of today, they were all community (socialist) centred people fearing God working in unity for the common good of all and not the individual. God sentus Jesus to demonstrate that to a higher level for each of us to live as one.

It is true no other country has provided more and at the same time provided alot of heartache pain and suffering too in the world over last 100yrs in "protecting the american way of life", Condaleeza Rice even gave a half winded apology on the foreign policies of the US for the last 50yrs.
Hey america backed noriega,saddam, Bin Laden,ho chin minh,burmese ,marcos, list goes on and on.
Since early 1900's the government of the people by the people has been taken over by wall street, even thomas jefferson warned in 1800s that the greatest threat to the country was not foreign armies, but the bankers taking control of the fed reserve. just over 100yrs later thats exactly what happened 1913.

If someone is offended by my comments i apologise before hand, if you are, as christians our loyaty to our banner(flag) is to Christ Jesus' way of life and reasoning, not politicians and world veiws. The standard to uphold is Jesus' standard, LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR

1990 George H Bush said this is the beginning of the New World Order, who asked america to impose their will on the world, weve seen americas way of life, doesnt look after its own, sooks up for giving basic health care, millions homeless, this all from once the richest country on earth, now china is, just went from really bad, to getting worse. Praise be to Jesus, come Lord come.

Obama is no different, all the same, oh no, im a national security threat now.
Jesus gives us more than we deserve

The Pilgrims came to America as you say. They did not fight the Revolutionary War and set up a new nation. Things had changed quite a bit in that time. The men who fought that fight and set us up to become the strongest nation in modern history were as I described. Until those founding principles were abandonded, we were doing pretty good as nations go.

Thanks for your civility :)
God bless ya!

by then the rot had set in English/French, greed has and always will be the driving force in the world, no government is Christ centred, if they were we'd have no poverty, Jesus knew this would never be the case hence His words of the poor we will always have with us.

We forget the blessor and trust in our armies to push the agenda. All leads to war. World definition for peace, a time between wars, Gods definition for peace, surpasses all understanding.

Did Osama and company really plan the attack on the world trade center and carry it through.

The people who are setting up the New World Order believe in controlled conflict brings about controlled change and constructive chaos.

They believe in causing chaos to bring about the New World Order for people will only want to make a change if they feel threatened and in danger and believe the change will bring peace.

Former Russian president Vladimir Putin went to the German parliament with other Europeans nations and said that Europe and Russia need to put aside their differences and offer peace and safety for the world and for themselves.

Former United States president George Bush said that Europe and America need to join together in which no power on earth can divide them.

The problem is that the European constitution when they have it established will conflict with the american constitution in which America would not be able to join them.

George Bush said if Homeland Security goes in to effect some of the liberties will go but it will cause all liberties to go and the constitution to be voided out.

George Bush said there ought to be a limit to freedoms.

I believe that the american government is looking for a way to void out the constitution and have a new constitution that will be compatible with the upcoming European constitution so that they can join them and they will use Homeland Security as the excuse in which FEMA will take over.

The people who are setting up the New World Order believe in controlled conflict brings about controlled change and constructive chaos.

mpaper345 you scare me with your New World Order conspiracy. The New World Order is too obvious anyways. They want you to think that so that you don't learn about the illuminati. The illuminati is in control of the media and are really covering up the Free Masons that control the government. The government is however a program created to stop us from seeing that we are in a matrix that was created by aliens to enslave us while they attempt to harvest our souls. but now i'm starting to think that it is also way too obvious...

I've got two coworkers, both professed Christians, both have stated it would be wonderful to see Obama taken care of physicaly and with a lot of racial slurs, it's disgusting to hear them talk.

Then I see these Tea Party movements where they are now turning violent, a lot of tea partiers are christians, go to church.

I haven't seen any single religious authority come out and tell these christians to stop being so hateful and violent.

It makes me ashamed to be a Christian when I see Christians acting like this, and on top of that going totally against what the early church taught and that was love and compassion for everyone, not just those who already have health insurance or fat bank accounts.

Matt
Hate is the same as being in darkness, we are suppose to love our enemy even if it means to tell them the truth. We as christians can disagree with obama but not hate. I personally believe that we arein some trying times in the USA emotions are running rapid people are freaking out. It will only get tougher as time goes on but we cannot let our hearts wax cold and turn from the faith. We must turn to God Almighty for help. Obama cant save us no man can save us. Jesus has the bast health care around called eternal life. Here are some scriptures to share with your co workers: 1Jo 2:9 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. 1Jo 2:10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him. 1Jo 2:11 But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.

Also Remember that not everyone who goes to church is a christian..so do not be ashamed of who you are in Chrsit Jesus never be ashamed of being a Christian Soldier:
1Pe 4:1 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin; 1Pe 4:2 That he no longer should live the rest of [his] time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God. 1Pe 4:3 For the time past of [our] life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries: 1Pe 4:4 Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with [them] to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of [you]: 1Pe 4:5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead. 1Pe 4:6 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit. 1Pe 4:7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. 1Pe 4:8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. 1Pe 4:9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging. 1Pe 4:10 As every man hath received the gift, [even so] minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. 1Pe 4:11 If any man speak, [let him speak] as the oracles of God; if any man minister, [let him do it] as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. 1Pe 4:12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 1Pe 4:13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. 1Pe 4:14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy [are ye]; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified. 1Pe 4:15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or [as] a thief, or [as] an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters. 1Pe 4:16Yet if [any man suffer] as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf. 1Pe 4:17 For the time [is come] that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if [it] first [begin] at us, what shall the end [be] of them that obey not the gospel of God? 1Pe 4:18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? 1Pe 4:19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls [to him] in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.


Mat 7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide [is] the gate, and broad [is] the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Mat 7:14 Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Mat 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Mat 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. Mat 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither [can] a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Mat 7:19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Mat 7:20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

I can't speak for those who "hate" Obama. I am one of those who has some discernment about him though. How about some Godly wisdom applied in deciding if he's a good person to have in charge of the nation?

Do you think it wise to elect someone who's been named by the U.S. Senate as the staunchest supporter of abortions and abortion rights in the history of the Senate? Hillary Clinton is far right wing of this man, and she's psychoticly against Godly policiy. We aren't talking mere non-intervention regulations. We're talking proposals during his senate days to actually insist that even if a baby is accidentally born during a late-term abortion, that it would be strictly forbidden to provide that baby with means of support. Literally requiring that the baby be left in a closet to die because not insisting upon this would "seriously undermine the spirit" behind the abortion decision and the abortion "rights" cause. Obama supporters usually refuse to look up the legitimacy of the positions he's taken on the Senate floor. Instead they look to similar-characters (who endorse him) to summarize and evaluate him on their behalf. Complete disolusionment and blatantly foolish.

Do you think it wise to elect a man who openly welcomes bans on Christians praying in public places? How about his policies to disallow miloitary functions which have been tradition in our country for honoring God and country since World War II because they insist upon giving reverence to God by way of prayer?

Do you think it wise to elect a man who's policies have unequivocally involved the socilaization of manufactoring, the socialization of the banking system, the socilaization of medicine, the socialization of healthcare, and who's sights are on socializing the other sectors of America in the same order by which Hitler was able to socialize Germany to obtain absolute control? I'm not saying the man is Hitler, for those of you who will insist on taking this quote out of context for your own rhetoric. All the while denying he's a socialist, he studied under sociolists, sang the praises of socilaist policies in his first book. His self-proclaimed mentors are self-proclaimed socialists, terrorists, and marxists. Don't take my ord for it - read the book. Unless you simply decide to remain adamantly ignorant and refuse to look into the issue with your own eyes. Heresay? rediculous rhetorical talking points?

Take a look at his policies. He and the other self-proclaimed socialists he's put in his cabinet have rabidly been overruling state sovereignty guaranteed by the constitution that in the same respectwhich he thumbs his nose at God in his policies, he thumbs his nose at the Central document on which all law and freedom in this country is based. nearly half of the states have now filed lawsuits if not actually passing laws which state they reject this new federal mandate and takeover of freedoms as completely illegal and unconstitutional. Why would they do that? The Senators who passed the legislation refer to it as healthcare reform. I've heard the nice things that it will do from the news organizations who endorse these members of congress.

Still not convinced? How smart do you have to be to connect the dots when all of our most steady Anti-Democratic Republic enemies support and endorse fully his socialist policies. Castro thinks it's the greatest thing the U.S. has ever done. Does that mean nothing at all to you? Hugo Chavez thinks he's the greatest president the U.S. has ever had. Does that not give you any indication that you might have been fed some stupid pills?

Okay okay! So stop with the "socialism blah blah blah"... he's better than the last president.
Can you tell me how?
The trouble we have now isn't his fualt! It's the previous administration's fault!

Can you explain to me how taking the previous administration's 4-year total of debt including a war can be outspent 4 times over in this man's first year on obsurd and blatant breaking of the law in bribing votes. Even the left-wing news groups can't sit there and not report it.

When on earth will you get your head out of the sand? So maybe you don't spend that much time looking into this stuff because you're not interested in politics? Fine. How about history? Did you not study and retain anything of value in the history of the different types of government?

I could write for weeks about this stuff, and it isn't because I enjoy it. It's not because I'm filled with hate or jealousy or racial bias. It's because I pay attention, I CARE about truth enough to not take it for granted, and because I care enough about what God says is right to recognize things that boldly stand against it. Look, Obama might be a nice guy. I don't believe he hates America at all. I bet he really feels he's doing the best thing. Problem is, he's driven by foolish principles and rejection of God in every way he has been able. If you take for granted that this bill is even 50% about providing health care for people, then I'm sorry to have to confess, you are ignorant. Having made this claim, if you continue to believe it's a good thing without checking for yourself what's in it (it's available online) then I would have to add to that that you are foolish. If after all of this rant, you defend his positions on policiy which has been consistantly anti-God and anti-constitutional without actually looking into the recorded votes he's made in congress and the programs he has cut, and the programs he's insisted room be made for... then I would add to that you are not a patriotic American.

If you insist still on claiming the man has done God any measure of respect or honor, has in any way given our nation a more righteous position or any more safety, without actually considering the weight of these allegations and checking them out, then I would add you in my mind, and that of any conservative and about every God-LOVING / PURSUING person I've ever known, to a long prayer list of people who, like me, need God's Truth. I pray that He would open your eyes.

I love my country. I will not say that any one else does not. But I will say that regardless of how bad any previous president has been, this president has in this one year, expressly demanded the overriding of the one document that has governed our nation for so long... more than any president in U.S. history. He has spent, in this one year - while we are already in crippling debt - more irresponsibly than any president in U.S. history. You want to take on the world? How about not crippling us financially in such a staggering way that even the vote of a supermajority in ALL houses of government is barely feasable.. not with all the bargaining.. all the political promisses... bribes.. even exemptions from the law from certain states. Even the Senate knows that what they are doing is wrong. Even they are starting to think.. "what the heck are we doing?" If you quote that it simply ensures that all Americans have healthcare, you haven't read it. Don't propagate what other people tell you. READ IT, because the lie that the government has spent SOOOOOOOO much mony on campaining and advertising to you - literally- to just swallow this thing because it's good for you and good for everyone, good for America.. they don't tell you what's in it! If you still think it's all a good thing and haven't at least looked at what's in it and how thr party who supports it even worries about what it will do to our coutry, then you're straight out senseless. Let me know when you're ready to buy a car.. I have one that's PERFECT for you. It's a GREAT deal and you need it.



If you refuse to pray for our leaders, then I question your loyalty to God. We are given that charge. Please pray that God gives us leaders who will humbly submit to his authority and will. Leaders who glorify Christ and enable others to do the same. The things that this man has done in office may not be able to be repaired. That saddens me. I want Christ's kingdom. The best that man can do is still messed up. I don't blame Obama for not trying his best. I blame him for the result.

Finally, if you've actually read everything I wrote, then thank you for being patient, tolerant, and contemplative, even if you disagree. Again, don't hate, but DO DISCERN. LOVE despite foolishness. Pray despite anger over wrecklessness. And PLEASE please ask God for wisdom.

Love in Christ,
Nathan / aka PolarGuyInAK

I do want to speak to those that claim the violent right wing tea parties exist.
The violence spoken to has been little at best. In fact when watching the news the other day where the claim of this was shown the vidio used was limited and had some from over a year ago patched in. I have witnessed far more violence if not consistant violence in the so called peace marches, and protests that claim to be about left wing human rights. The few of ether group do not represent the whole and we all must always keep in mind the manipulation of much of our media. If I were to speak to anything here it would be to pray and be wise in decerning what is presented by our media.
I have first hand seen the true and then witnessed what the media has done with it.
What concerns me most is not the opinions of all here, because I believe in the right all have to voice them. What concerns me is the fact that most opinions are baced in the manipulation of truth.
But when all is said and done the important thing is that we all pray and live as we are called to in Jesus Our Lord and savior.

bro, root of all evil is love of money, power corrupts, the government by the people for the people doesnt exist,they are all the same jfk tried to bring that back, that magic bullet killed him(film footage shows half his face blown off, government account, single shot,), funny how Henry Kissinger groomed Obama and Condaleeza Rice for government since their youth. Closed club, need to be part of it to even run for the presidency. They are all the face of Wall street. Fed Reserve lost its control to wall street in 1913, wall street has determined your economy and rates since. Main street to them are serfs. lol new world order, backdate to 1000 yrs ago, peasants and lords of the land. "IN GOD WE TRUST" which one

Good post pickles. Our media appeals to people's emotions, and completely ignores the facts. All one has to do is label someone as a "right wing nut" for example, and they have a ready audience ready to believe whatever they say. If one looks at the message of the tea party activists, it is not about hatred or violence. It is about returning to the freedoms that were guaranteed us in our Constitutution. Those rights, which have been paid for by millions of lives over the centuries, have been accounted as nothing, and trampled under the feet of elected officials, whose only goal in life is to stay in power and keep their job.

How soon we forget our history. Everywhere that Martin Luther King went there were riots, violence, and people killed and hurt. Not because he advocated it, but because the passions of people often get out of hand. Certainly this was much more apparent in the 60's than now, and yet, who could argue the justice of their cause, or that the result was positive?

Well i would say that after George Bush, I am just glad that the world is in one piece still. About the time they were serious about invading Iran, and where pissed at Kim Jong Il for his bomb tests, I thought of making a fallout survival kit. It seems the bad guys (that are left) want to die and kill everyone else. So I think its weird that we complain about Obama who is trying to please such a free and divided country. I thought the main reason we got Obama was for his potential in foreign affairs. Obama looks a lot better to the rest of the world. We can't just fix a sinking boat then complain it isn't fast enough or that its not pretty anymore. Everything else that is not Obama's main function should be upon the people. They should stop the reason that women get abortions, using the parents, schools, businesses etc. same for health care etc. Obama cannot do everything, Obama is not our God. We believe in God we should have the domestic power. "In God We Trust"
