Everybody's a Christian now-a-days. Bill Clinton was a Christian too with his affair, and so was George Bush with his war machine. I am just amazed at the Christian-ness of all these Christians!
Thankfully God actually defines in scripture what a Christian is and what a Christian is not, just to prevent any confusion:
1John 2:4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
Matt 7:
15Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Quest
Your paragraph above reminds me of an email that I received recently. I can't say with any authority whether it's claims are true or not, but with the amount of corruption we hear about in politics, I wouldn't be surprised.
Here it is below:
Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 300
Employees and has the following statistics?
30 have been accused of spousal abuse.
9 have been arrested for fraud
14 have been accused of writing bad cheques.
95 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses.
4 have done time for assault.
55 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit.
12 have been arrested on drug related charges.
4 have been arrested for shoplifting.
16 are currently defendants in lawsuits.
62 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year!
Can you guess which organization this is?
It is the 301 MP's in the Canadian Parliament!
The same group that cranks out hundreds of new laws designed to keep the rest of us in line?!
Which criminal did you vote for?
It's funny too because if you asked any of these MP's during the elections process if they were Christian or not, many - if not all of them - would answer yes. Of course they say "yes" because they know that saying so will earn them votes. But claiming to be a Christian and behaving like one are two totally different things.

Back on the attack again, eh? But that's okay with me, I do hope you continue. Your behavior turns people off and earns credibility for my perspective.

Sanctimonious and pious judgement based on your interpretation of the Bible of course. I prefer to let God do the taliking myself.
LOL.
So he IS the Anti-Christ!
LOL!!!!!!!!!!
Again you presume that I don't.
Which is wrong.
You base your interpretation of the Word to denigrate and lampoon the leader of your country.
How very, very sad.

Awesome! There are so many wonderful truths to be discovered!
Ezek36:
24For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.
25Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
26A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
27And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.

Well, Obama has no problem with abortion, yet the bible says "thou shalt not murder."
That should be enough right there but just in case it is not, Obama sees nothing wrong with homosexuality, the bible tells us differently.
If you can't see these things, then you are so caught up in the world that you can't even look to God, and for that I feel deep sorrow for you.

Obama is the President of the most multicultural and multi-religious country in the world. He is not the Pastor of the country, he is the leader.
What you are proposing is akin to introducing Sharia Law into Great Britain or the like.
He has to rule for ALL of the country, not just the Christians.
You have to get your head around the fact that the USA is not purely a Christian country. As much as that may pain you to accept.
