I found this blog as I live in the Brainerd Lakes Country and have tried to get others involved. I hope you don't mind, but I am so concerned for our country that Obama will be elected that I am trying to do everything I can to prevent that.

Take Care,

Buck

i think America needs to get off their butts and stop being blind sheep.

Education of the blind sheep is the key to geting America back on track.

There were people from as far away as Oklahoma and Oregon on here yesterday who share our concern for this country. LovelyDenise4ou lives in Norman, Oklahoma and Independent lives in Oregon. I have no idea where the others are from.

Texas and she is a superdelegate and she doesnt like what happened down there in Texas. I have been hearing rumblings from other states as well like Ohio and Montana, where there was some monkey biz by the DNC and the Obama campaign.

I agree...that this not just about religion. It is about protecting this country from a sadistic madman. They call BUSH a madman...Obama and a reign of terror he will inflict on our own country will make Bush look like the pope.

Good luck and keep me informed.-mndapa1

Independent. I am also concerned with those facts, as well as his support of the fairness doctrine that will impose fines and sanctions against christian broadcasting, his stand on gun control and the second amendment, his stance on education, his stance on foreign policy with iran, n. korea, china, pakistan (he said we should invade pakistan, which being an islamic nation with nuclear weapons, would be a disaster), and just about everything else this man stnads for or believes in.

He is running on change. The only change I see he stands for is screwing up America. Politians are already doing a fair share of that in Washington without having a leader who wont stand up for America.

Thanks for your comments. - mndapa1

Hillary was thrown under the bus by that mountebank and the DNC. I understand it since coming down the home stretch she only won all the large battleground states by a wide margin and collected the most votes by any primary candidate in history. Why would we want fairness? The voters spoke loud and clear that Hillary was their choice, but in their wisdom the DNC selected Obama. It's a shame that a candidate is selected rather than elected. If Obama had a spine that wasn't gelatinous he would have acted Presidential and demanded that every vote in Michigan and Florida be counted. I too am through with the Democratic Party after many years and will not vote for the flip flopper.

PUMA rules!

When Hillary came out strong in defense of Israel and warned of anhilation to Iran...I was impressed. So impressed that I would have voted for her in Novemeber.

Although I don't agree with most of what democrats do, anyone of them that runs for office that takes an America First stance has to be seriouly looked at. The most important role of the federal government is a strong defense. Their second role is protecting Americans and our allies world wide.

Hillary and John McCain understand this. With Obamas views, I think he believes he is running for class president..not President of the United States.

Wow! You kind of people are really scary. "Thou Shall Not murder" yet you speak of killing "gay" people and agree with war?
Sheep.
Say horrible things in the name of "Jesus Christ"
You would not be able to recognize Jesus if he came back to try to teach you something. The real Jesus is kind and gentle until an injustice happens, then there is a response of action.
You both are in-Just and fools for sitting on a stack of bibles written by people you don't even know. You have not been endowed with the right to make such harsh judgments on people you don't even understand.
I bet you both lead pretty un-happy lives. Thats because of your karma and atonement.
Sitting on the computer DEBATING about a religion you both claim to be apart of. Not only do Christians judge the whole world for being "wrong" and living in sin but they even judge people of their own faith.
Both of you need to sit and meditate on what Jesus would Really do. Go outside take a deep breath and be thankful that you can even breath. You should stop worrying about this Heaven made only for white, Christian republicans and focus on the fact that God made everybody and everything knowing what that creation would be like. God made everyone perfect and for a reason and it wasn't to deny anyone access into heaven as you call it.
Chill Out

Bet you are too looney to believe in hell, Sodom and Gemorah, and the list of other tributes that shows God is just and a jealous God.

Defend what God's WORD emphasizes is an abomination against Him...see where if you have a walk with Him...which I doubt you do...takes you.

The Bible is literal...obviously you cannot take the WORD at face value and want to write or read into it to pervert to your style of thinking. To some of us. That is not acceptable.

Before you tried to correct anyone on Christianity...shouldn't you know the basic premace?

But just because you go to church, it doesnt mean your church or you are a christian. I have heard the same thing from Jehovah witnesses, mormons, and other sects of religious persuasion.

What I posted was the truth. It is my duty to stand up for the truth and to report it to others who may have not heard it.

The only commandment that Jesus Christ added was the greatest commandment of all. The Greatest Commandment:

But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, gathered themselves together. One of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, testing him. "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?"
Jesus said to him, "'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.' This is the first and great commandment. A second likewise is this, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments."

Matthew 22:34-40

Just because I speak the truth does not err me from the commandment, nor does it not make me a christian. Obviously your church and yourself needs to look at what a real christian is. Because anyone can call him or herself a christian...but the proof is in the not what you call yourself, its the how, when, what, and if. Christ said," I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one enters unto the kingdom of heaven, but by me." Those who are not Born Again, those who haven't made Jesus Christ their personal Savior are not christians...they are imposters.

Ask your Pastor about being Born Again...if he doesn't know...then you are not attending a bible believing church. Find one that does.

As for your last statement...I don't condemn him for his christianity...I question him for lack of it. Christians do not support abortion. Period. Exodus 20:13.."Thall shall not murder."

So please excuse me, but is you and you perpetuating the beliefs of your church and a man you support that is very unchristian.

It appears you are caught up in the I believe and everyone else is doomed to hell syndrom Fred. What church do you belong to?

What is your view on abortion? What is your view on gays, gay marriage?

I suppose you are caught up in the twisting the true meaning of a just society with the social justice mantra of today of tax and spend, big government bureacracy and that government can do everything better than family and communities of faith?

Just reading your comments shows what a Christian you are not Fred. Posting a comment makes the posted a Cherry Picker?

The Church that Obama belongs to, I say belong because I do not believe his resigniation is genuine, violates these beliefs. Furthermore Obama has spoken out against the Church but he has not publicly stated how his beliefs differs. For me I do not believe someone who belongs to a Church for 20 years and not take on some of its ideals. If he was so opposed to the ideals of that Church he would have left years ago. Therefore I say he is not a Christian because his Church subscribes to ideals that goes against religious teachings and I say he is not a Christian because he could have left a Church that violates such teaching.

As a born again Christian, I am terrified for our Country if this man becomes our next president. I’m sure that Bin Laden, many Al Queda, and even Sadam Hussein say or said good night to their children and think they are doing a good job making good people of their children also. False Profit is one of the nicer names for Obama. He is simply a liar to proclaim any affiliation with Christianity. I pray that God will enlighten him but mostly I pray that the Christian community will be enlightened to the dangers he, along with his political cohorts, could do to our country.

Choosing Obama, who does not have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, is a recipe for disaster for America and the world. Obama believes in killing babies through abortion, associates with church leaders who hate America and secretly desperages people of religion as weak and inadequate. He is masquerading behind a facade of “change” that is a false hope based on deceit, delusion and distance from an abiding relationship with the only one who can protect, bless and strengthen our nation.

Regardless of what you think or beleive Fred, Obama is still a flawed candidate, with little or no experience, who is supported by the same type of idealists that voted for Jimmy Carter and look where that got us? We don't need a President who will let our defense down against those like Chavez, Castro, Ahmadinejad or put the UN's needs befores ours at home and that is exactly what this joke of a candidate will do!

When I was in-country, we used to call cowards like you D&C’s (duck and covers). Well, sir, you are a cowardly liar who won’t give up attacking Mr. Obama. I have no use for people like you. Now, you’ve even started a new account just so you can attack me under a new user. That proves you’re just a D&C.

I really have no use for Mr. Obama, either. However, I support those weaker than me as commanded in the Bible. When heathens like you use lies to attack others, it gets my blood boiling! That is why I said I supported Mr. Obama. And I do, as one Christian to another. I’m a Ron Paul man, myself. He is a true patriot, like me. Even though he has pulled out of the race, I will write him in!

So, heathen, you would like to know what faith I belong to. Well, let me just say that I am a Christian and Bible believer, unlike you. What is my view on gays? Let me sum it up by quoting from the good book:

Leviticus 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

So, I think, as the Bible commands, that gays should be put to death. If I wasn’t in a wheelchair from my last tour in-country, I would be following God’s command and putting the homosexuals to death. That’s what God has commanded, Mr. Liar. Are you killing the fags like God commands you to do?

As far as abortion is concerned, the Bible (which I have read cover to cover seven times), is less clear. The only verses that I have found that really talks about are these:

Exodus 21:22 If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman’s husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.

Now, my prayer concerning this verse has revealed to me by the holy spirit that God wants a penalty that certain judges and the husband will decide. This penalty is not death.

From Psalms:
139:13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.

139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

139:15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

So, the conclusion to my prayer is that it is okay to kill homosexuals, but not okay to blow up abortion clinics. Obviously gay marriage should also result in death. Agreed? Killing the unborn isn’t as simple of a problem. The holy spirit spoke to me and told me that killing the unborn results in them being whisked directly to heaven. Why would God want them to burn in hell when they haven’t even been born yet? So, though abortion is wrong, it isn’t wrong to kill a homosexual who should be burning in hell.

There’s another problem in the Bible that I have prayed with my pastor over, and the Holy Spirit spoke to me. It is from these verses:

Deuteronomy:

21:18 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them:
21:19 Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;
21:20 And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.
21:21 And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.

Luckily, I am not capable of having a son, so I haven’t had to cross this bridge. I am sure God will guide others who have a problem with their rebellious sons. I am surprised that more Christians aren’t stoning their unruly children to death. I know I would.

So, Mr. Liar and Heathen, I anxiously await your reply to me regarding an apology for calling Mr. Obama a Muslim, and how you deal with the scourge we call homosexuality. Do you have sons?

Well Mr. know it all...meet my twin brother. But if you grew up in this area, you would know that I have a twin and he also writes letters to the editor in this paper and several others around the state just like me.

"When I was in-country, we used to call cowards like you D&C’s (duck and covers). Well, sir, you are a cowardly liar who won’t give up attacking Mr. Obama."

Well sir,if Obama wants to come to reneck country as you call it an debate a country preacher like me...lets bring it on. I have read his books and his statements given as to his beliefs, and would debate him in a heartbeat. Religion is a debate...be a christian isn't. As for dapa2...thats my brother..and he works in the cities and lives 45 minutes south of the cities. But that's right...know it all like you can't figure out what the truth is.

"As far as abortion is concerned, the Bible (which I have read cover to cover seven times), is less clear. The only verses that I have found that really talks about are these:
Exodus 21:22...etc"

Well maybe you should read it again. i read it cover to cover...EVERY year. I have 90% of it memorized and I can read Hebrew and am working on Greek and Aramaic. I can hold this for a fact, that you know less about the bible than Mr. Obama...and I don't think he is a christian.

As for Abortion. "Thall shall not murder." Exodus 20:13...one of the ten commandments. Is you take the adaptation that the Catholic changed it to...then you have "Thall shall not kill." But it is clear in the Hebrew text, and translated to English...it is thall shall not murder. What this means, is it against God's Law and God's Will that anyone should not take anyones life in a deliberate manner. This is the definition of murder. Did i clear this up for you. Or maybe you should talk to the elders or pastor of your church.

And yes I have a son. And as for my dad. He is very proud of his sons. My dad lives with me. Has since my mom died. I told my dad what you said, and he says you are a delusional fool full of yourself. I tend to agree with him.

Your words are anxious and demure, but they dont bother me. I have heard worse. As for liar...I am not. Heathen...depends on whose definition. But your words and actions do not show you are a christian...but a man full of pride, heresey, and apostacy. Tell someone who cares. I make know apology for my stand on the issues or the candidates.

For one I am not Mndapa1 so you owe the owner of this blog an apology. You think because others have views differently than yours that they will burn in hell. I have seen many like you bleeding for a liberal governmental fix while pretending it to be from a Christian perspective.

Obama may not be Muslim but his father and step father were - are and the sphere of influence surely has an impact on those whom come into contact with that influence. I think that I have also seen claims that Obama's mother was a Christian but I don't believe that to be true either as a quote in Obama's book clearly shows her distaste and distrust of Christians.

A Christian is not afraid to talk about his faith nor is he afraid to share with others of his faith and I don't care you are running for President or the PTA - faith matters.

Then you have the links of Obama to his church and other links to characters such as Wright, Farrakhan, Professor Edward Said and others.... some information here:

But at least part of the senator’s online outreach, “Muslim Americans for Obama ’08,” proposes installing Muslim prayer areas in public places and giving Muslims time off for prayer and has denounced Obama’s colleagues in the U.S. Senate who happen to be Jewish. This segment of Obama's online outreach also has ties to unindicted co-conspirators in terror trials and has recruited Obama supporters from among the ranks of fundamentalist Muslim extremists.

On the blog, which is attached to BarackObama.com, viewers can read about “the Senate pro-Israeli zionist hawk Joe Lieberman,” as well as criticism aimed at Obama himself for getting too cozy with the Israeli lobby. As stated on the blog, that last part was derived from information found on Electronic Intifada (EI), a terror apologist website based in Chicago, Illinois, Obama’s hometown. According to the site’s co-founder, Ali Abunimah, Senator Obama once told him, regarding Abunimah’s anti-American and anti-Israel writings, to “Keep up the good work!”

While the Muslim Americans for Obama ’08 blog is hosted by Obama’s website, it is actually part of another site that goes by the same name, located at muslimsforobama08.com. The registered agent for the site is Zakiyah Omar, a women’s costume designer from Jacksonville, Florida. Omar has been involved in the Obama campaign since December 2006 (She has had the site since February ’07). She too has her own blog hosted by the official Obama website.

On the Muslim Americans for Obama ’08 site, one will find a list of upcoming events, issues and solutions, details on how to join, a links section to sites of interest, and of course, a link to the blog. There’s even a toll-free number to call for more information.

Within the events section, a number of the listings pertain to conferences and conventions being sponsored by organizations that have a number of troubling ties. One is the 44th Annual ISNA National Convention, held in Rosemont, Illinois.

ISNA or the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) was recently named an “Unindicted Co-conspirator” for a Dallas trial that dealt with the funding of millions of dollars to Hamas. Beginning in December 2003, ISNA was the subject of a Senate investigation into the financing of terror groups overseas. The group currently uses its website to propagate violent hatred against Jews and Christians.

Another of the events listed is the 32nd ICNA-MAS Convention, held in Hartford, Connecticut. ICNA or the Islamic Circle of North America, in August 2006, was the top donor to a Pakistani charity that, at the time, had given $99,000 to the head of Hamas, Khaled Mashaal. Four people associated with the ICNA-related ‘Houston Taliban’ were arrested and charged with jihad training with firearms, for the purpose of joining the Taliban to attack Americans overseas.

MAS or the Muslim American Society, like ISNA, uses the web to spread violent hatred against non-Muslims. In April 2004, MAS’s Communications Director, Randall Todd “Ismail” Royer, was sentenced to 20 years in prison for his activities within the ‘Virginia Jihad Network,’ a group that was conspiring with Laskar-e-Taiba (LeT) to attack Americans and Indians abroad.

Yet another event listing is the 2007 MANA National Convention, held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. MANA or the Muslim Alliance in North America was founded in May of 2000, in response to the arrest of cop killer H. Rap Brown, a.k.a. Jamil Al-Amin. The President (Amir) of the organization is Siraj Wahhaj, an individual that was named by the U.S. government an “Unindicted Co-conspirator” in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

According to Muslim Americans for Obama ’08, it took part in “VOTER REGISTRATION/INFORMATION BOOTHS,” at each of the above venues. Taking that into consideration, since Muslim Americans for Obama ’08 is officially part of the Barack Obama for President team – or as the campaign puts it, “Community” – one can conclude that Senator Obama and/or his campaign had sanctioned its attendance at these events.

Further troubling are the following “Issues & Solutions” on the site:

Institute a Law to allow Muslim Employees to take an hour off from work for Friday Jummah Prayer.

Make the 2 Eid’s recognized National Holidays on Calendars with days off from work.

Provide prayer areas suitable for Salah and Jummah, in public and private facilities. (i.e. Malls, Airports, Universities and government buildings.)

Found on the right side of the website’s homepage are a series of links, most of which deal with information about Senator Obama and the campaign. One of them, though, is a link to Aswat Al-Islam, a radical Islamic multimedia outlet. Muslim Americans for Obama ’08 lists it as “Quran (Audio) English Translation.”

Aswat Al-Islam features the works of such Islamist luminaries as: “Uninidicted Co-conspirators” of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, Siraj Wahhaj and Bilal Philips; anti-Christian bigot, Ahmed Deedat; pro-wife beating author, Jamal Badawi; suicide bombing supporter, Yusuf Al-Qaradawi; and the chief cleric of the Grand Mosque in Mecca, who has called for the murders of Jews, Christians and Americans and has described Jews as “the scum of the human race, the rats of the world, the killers of prophets, and the grandsons of monkeys and pigs,” Abdul Rahman Al-Sudais.

According to Muslim Americans for Obama ’08, Senator Barack Obama “is the BEST candidate for the job in 2008.” But being the best candidate should have as a requisite keeping company that is worthy of respect. Recently, Obama has been cited for having a racist and anti-Israel pastor, Jeremiah Wright, and a campaign advisor that has expressed sympathy for Hamas and Hezbollah, Robert Malley.

Deny all you want but there are clear links to Muslim radicals and Obama.

Then there is the claim in his lit piece described here:

You are a fool Fred..... a fool!

It will not be possible for me to vote for Obama (*61). He is a veritable flip flop machine. Because of his behavior and that of the Democratic National Committee who selected *61 as their candidate of choice, I have left the party after many, many years. I am now an Independent who will be voting for John McCain. For any of you interested simply do a google search for Obama gaffes and flip flop patrol.

PUMA

from the sights I found when I googled what you said. Oh my...he is a bigger flip flopper than Kerry was.

He is a fraud and the only change we can count on is to provide pampers to him so that he can be changed.

Hang on folks, David Freddoso is in the final stages of his manuscript for his book, "The Case Against Barack Obama". It sounds like it will take an in depth look at BO's sordid past. I can hardly wait. It is due to be published on August 4th.

PUMA pac

I am really looking forward to the book by Freddoso. It can't come out soon enough.

PUMA rocks!
