Some more stuff

Okay, it is no secret that I think Obama is NOT the best choice to lead our great country. I find his disdain for all things American to be very disconcerting. Now, I understand that not all things sent through the web and emails are 100% legitimate so I try to take them with a grain of salt. But I got one today that was a picture of Obama holding the book "The Post American World", a muslim view. Scary? Yes, I think so. Now I want everyone reading to know that I do not hate muslims but they certainly shouldn't be telling us how to run our country.

Some other concerns:

He is not only pro-choice but apparently thinks that it should be okay to do whatever necessary to eliminate innocent life (partial bith abortions, refusal to help infants that failed to die while being aborted, and thinks that young women shouldn't have to notify parents of their decision to abort)

He is completely okay with legalizing same-sex marriages. Whats next? Marrying your pet, or marrying an underaged child? After all we should be able to whatever we want without anyone questioning us, right?

And socialism. I am totally not okay with it in any way. We already have programs established to help those less fortunate. Why in the world should the money I work so hard for be taking from me and my family to be given to someone else? Somebody correct me if I'm wrong but don't they already take money out of our paychecks to fund government run programs? If they haven't worked so far why would taking more away from us and giving more to others be better? Just some thoughts....

I usually don't talk politics for fear of "offending" someone. But I had an epiphany. The very people I was worried about are about to take away my freedom. So I will be silent no more. We, as Christians need to stand up and make some noise because some very important decisions about our lives, our livlihoods and our future freedoms, not to mention the moral fiber of our country are at stake. So please pray and vote.

I came across this today and I had to share.


*'Twas the night before elections*
*And all through the town*
*Tempers were flaring*
*Emotions all up and down!*
**
*I, in my bathrobe*
*With a cat in my lap*
*Had cut off the TV*
*Tired of political crap.*
**
*When all of a sudden*
*There arose such a noise*
*I peered out of my window*
*Saw Obama and his boys*
**
*They had come for my wallet*
*They wanted my pay*
*To give to the others*
*Who had not worked a day!*
**
*He snatched up my money*
*And quick as a wink*
*Jumped back on his bandwagon*
*As I gagged from the stink*
**
*He then rallied his henchmen*
*Who were pulling his cart*
*I could tell they were out*
*To tear my country apart!*
**
*' On Fannie, on Freddie, *
*On Biden and Ayers!*
*On Acorn, On Pelosi'*
*He screamed at the pairs!*
**
*They took off for his cause*
*And as he flew out of sight*
*I heard him laugh at the nation*
*Who wouldn't stand up and fight!*
**
*So I leave you to think*
*On this one final note-*
*IF YOU DONT WANT SOCIALISM*
*GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!*

I try to give him the benefit of the doubt and say he may be reading that just to read it. I sometimes read things I don't agree with just because I like to know what others think. However, in case, I just don't know anymore.
You know I'm not the biggest McCain fan, but there were just too many fishy things popping up here, there and everywhere.
Watch out though, McCain is proposing a mortgage buyout that will drastically drop home prices because they're bailing out greedy people who were doing flips as well. This is going to hurt my family a lot.

K, I agree with you.

TM, It may hurt your family but if the country becomes more socialized then we will ALL be hurting in the long run.

I know. I had to pick the lesser of two evils.

Doesn't it seem to this way every election??
Lesser of two evils

Well I supported Obama...and part of me still does, but I took the easy way out and voted for another God-help-us Republican. I guess I can say it was a fear of the unknown. I felt like if I voted for McCain at least I would know it would be the same old crap for another 4 years???
Politics are never pretty. I'm praying for our country!

I agree with you and the other comments. McCain isnot perfect but Obama's plans and stances on certain issues are definitely not good. Regardless of ehat happens Tuesday, God is in control (that's what I have to keep telling myself because I am nervous!)
