    Russia's New President is age (42) 4 Years younger than Obama....

    Do you hear the Russian World or the International World Worry about his "Religion or his Age ?

    No You Don't and you Won't...

    Religion: No Politician is a Relgious Man or woman, No more Religious than those that live and Breathe.

    Religion: Is a MYTH, Concoction, Rite of Political Passage, But not REAL....

    You People need to STOP BELIVING your own LIES, DECEPTIONS & ILLUSSIONS...

    Santa Claus, The Toothe Fairy, Peter CottonTail, Liprechauns, Elves, Ogors & Dragons Don't EXIST !!!

    Politicians are Oppourtunist with Great Ambitions and that is, to not be AVERAGE, To Control things...

    Ask Bush Jr & Bill Clinton

    The Bush & Clinton Families are family Friends and the Jokes on You.

    The CFR, The Council ion Foreign Relations, The Tri-latteral Commission & The FED Control this Society and No Man has Figure Head power in this country without david rockefellar's Approval and Your Approval does Not Matter....

    David Rockefellar's Approval does means something

    Reality is a Mother huh !!!!

    John Mccain: Whore Monger

    This Week, Mccain said during his Townhall Meetings, that he remembered the names of the Pittsburg Steelers Team, when he wrote in his book and the TV Movie, in fact it was the Green Bay Packers.

    The Man is either the Biggest LIAR or he's SEMI-SENILE !!!

    A Constant Philanderer: Left his 1st Wife for his now Rich Wife.

    Integrity: War Heroe ?? You must save Lives, During a War, in order to be Branded or Awarded Heroes Status, McCain does not fit that Mold at all.

    Fact: McCain gave up Classified Information. John Mccain Graduated Last in his Class at the Naval Academy. John McCain Crashed (6 Planes) John Mccain is a Poor Calculating Political Oppourtunist.

    George W. Bush Never Served in Battle, he in fact Dodged Viet Nam via Affluence of his Father and Served in the National Gaurd, Draft Dodger as well as D!ck Cheney.. Bush nor Cheney have any Combat or Heroic Records and you Lame Brains Voted their A## 's as President & Vice President.... TWICE !!!!


    Bill Clinton has no Military Record at all and you Voted his A## President ...TWICE !!

    Thats with all of Clinton's Philandering History, which was Well Documented Before, During & After his Presidency.

    Goerge W. Bush Sr. had the CIA Experience, the 2 Terms as Vice President under (Mr.666 Himself) Ron-ald Wil-son Rea-gan and his A## only lasted 1 term as President of the USA.

    Bush Sr. left the Oval Office with Very Low Public Ratings, with all his Prior Military & CIA & VP Presidential "Experience"

    Just think, his Son George W. Bush Jr. has out Done him

    His Son Buh Jr. had only 1 term as Governor (State-Regiona Experience)

    Governors: Bill Clinton & Jimmy Carter had only State -Regional Experience as well, Not National or International "Experience"

    Sorry

    So much for "Experience"

      Omarr, you reveal your ignorance and uncouthness with every post. Why don't you keep your fingers off the keyboard and let intelligent people present their views. Go climb back under your rock.

    Who cares about what politicians believe! IT IS NOT IMPORTANT!! THEIR BELIEFS IS NOT WHAT'S GOING TO MAKE OUR LIVES BETTER! WHEN ARE AMERICANS GOING TO UNDERSTAND????

    What???s significant, but which NEVER will be highlighted in a political campaign is that Obama developed his moral vision -- his ideals of working for the poor and striving for justice rather than the large salaries made possible by his education ??? long before he became a Christian. He got these values, from his secular humanist, non-religious upbringing. Being a Christian was politically essential for his career, but Obama is certainly one politician who knows that non-believers can be highly moral and great idealists.

    I find that it is strange that we are even discussing this. Since Obama's reliegion is sanctioned by the constitution and is not posing a threat to the United States, what ever has happened to "Freedom of Religion" in this country. Not all christians adhere to the tenents of Christianity, nor do all muslims, or Islamic adhere to the tenents of their faith. It is only because there is a question of Mr. Obama being affiliated tieh the Islamic, or Muslim faith that we bring up these comments. In America, we have been propagandised, and brainwashed that all muslims are terrorist and are out to destroy this country. It is through blackballing of the "Black Muslims" led by minister Farakham and things attributed to his follwing that we are in this scare situation today. Maybe we need to truly adhere to "Freedom of Religion" and not be selectively embracing some and disallowing others. Is this a nation of hypocrites. Seems like we tout our human rights programs around the world and try to influence other countries to adhere to theml, what about us.

    And for those of you who think you know everything about Black Liberation Theology (you obviously don't know much of anything about it if you fear it), here's a little information for you, from the International Herald Tribune: Mr. Wright preached black liberation theology, which interprets the Bible as the story of the struggles of black people, whom by virtue of their oppression are better able to understand Scripture than those who have suffered less. That message can sound different to white audiences, said Dwight Hopkins, a professor at University of Chicago Divinity School and a Trinity member. "Some white people hear it as racism in reverse," Dr. Hopkins said, while blacks hear, "Yes, we are somebody, we're also made in God's image."

    • Posted By: mypov123 @ 07/13/2008 2:46:17 PM

      To me, Black Liberation Theology means that as a Black person, I am liberated in knowing that I am as good as, not superior to (as some of you would like to think BLT teaches superiority) someone from any other group, that being Black isn't something to be ashamed of, I am liberated in knowing that I am just as worthy, and just as capable as anyone else.

      • Posted By: eternity875 @ 07/13/2008 2:58:35 PM

        What about Cone's assertion in BLT that a God who sees all people as the same and loves all people equally is not a God they believe in...how do you explain that as being unifying of all races...it isn't...unfortunately, that is Obama's message and it doesn't ring true based upon the "brand" of supposed Christianity he practiced for 20 years.

  • Posted By: thefurnacedude @ 07/13/2008 2:19:18 PM

    If Senotor Obama is so intelligent, why did he stay in Trinity Baptist for 20 years? Listening to Reverend Wright for 30 seconds, I could tell the guy is a LUNATIC!!!!

    • Posted By: Enough @ 07/13/2008 2:58:12 PM

      The same could be asked of those who attend the churches or listen to extremists like Hagee, Robertson, Falwell.

  • Posted By: thefurnacedude @ 07/13/2008 2:57:57 PM

    Let's be intelligent and vote for change, because we need change. If we vote for Obama we will get change. What is the change? Has anyone noticed Obama never says anything. We need to change. We can do a better job. We need to get a long better. HOW??? How is Obama going to change Washington? Do you have any evidence of him ever working across party lines? Voting for change because he says he is going to change, doesn't mean that he will change anything. What we have seen mostly in this election cycle is that he is willing to compromise his core beliefs constantly, time and time again to the politically expediant side to maintain popularity.

    I can relate to this article because I have worshipped different religions and it all comes down to the root of what you believe in. I believe in one God. I was baptised a Catholic. I attended a Christain church up till I was 14 years of age. My family got away from the church altogether for a couple of years and then we started attending a Mormon church. Now that I am married and have a family I attend a Catholic Church. My wife and kids are devout but I just attend services. I guess what I am trying to say is that it doesn't make a man less committed to God if he worships different religions he becomes more educated about how those religions think about life and God. Whatever your committment to God is is your own choosing and what you believe is what you engrain your soul into believing. I would rather have a well rounded candidate that has different views of the world than one that steers clear of diversity in cultures and religion. This is not a Protestant nation anymore than it is Catholic, Muslim or Athiest it is all of these into one. May God bless the candidate that can understand that...

    The story passes over the most troubling part of Obama's "religious" experience... 20 YEARS @ 3 times a week with Rev. Wright... a devout Marxist and Bigot. How come nobody is asking Obama how he justifies his Marxist practices with his centrist rhetoric? 80% of this country is employed by small-medium businesses and their tax rates and regulation are promised to increase 3-fold under Obama. How can anyone with a family possibly justify voting for the devout Marxist Obama when their job is at stake? Do you really think he can force these business owners to keep you on the payroll when they can no longer afford to pay you? Careful what you wish for people and at the very least try to understand the repercussions. "Equality" at the Expense of Liberty is Communism. ALSO...WHY DID THE AUTHORS CHOOSE TO REFER TO OBAMA'S MOTHER AS "ANN" WHEN PRESENTING QUESTIONABLE PRACTICES AND "MOTHER" WHEN IT WAS POSITIVE? IN OTHER WORDS, A KNOWING BIAS OR SUB-CONSCIENCE?

    How much fawning coverage can Newsweek give Obama? With each glossy cover the magazine surpasses itself - I cannot believe there is not someone in the Newsweek organization who cares about objectivity anymore. I have never seen anything like this - Time and U.S. News would never be so blatantly for any candidate. I reluctantly cancelled my subscription.

    Posted By Veteran from New York City:
    After I read some of these comments, I feel compell to reply about how ignorant some people really are. It is so sad to see even some intellectual people are in the same mindset of pre-historic America. The level of ignorance of these people kept America Hostage. Some people will prefer America to sink like a Titanic instead to vote for Change. Barack Obama is not America's Savior like some people would like to think but at this moment in history, He is the only best that America can offer. Sad to see the media, the intellectuals, the ignorants let their feelings override their common sense. People if we really love America like some of you pretended, if we love to see America regains her Leadership position in the world, we should support Obama. John McCain is a great man that deserve a happy retirement in Arizona after so many years of public service. His philasophy about America is not the best at this time. The old way of thinking made us losing our grip in the world's affair, that is why some courntries like Venezuela, Chile, Zimbabwe, Iran, Russia, China try to riducule and have no respect for America because of this current administration. Certainly Supreme Court made the wrong choice by choosing Bush to be President,and we also made the wrong choce by electing Bush for a second term, people we cannot afford to make another catastrophic mistake again by electing McCain. Let's try something new, after all America is deserve better than some of the comments that I read in this blog. Let's not let ignorance prevails but let's be little bit more intelligent this time.

    Look at Bush and he professes to be a Christian. His staff consisted of scooter libbey,dick chaney, rumsfeld, gonzolaz, rove. More questionable and corrupt stuff than ever in our history has happened during Bushes reign of terror. Do we want a another good christian like Bush being our president. Hell NO! How many other professed Christians have been in scandals in congress.
    I do not care what religion our next president is. I DO CARE if the next president has ethics, intellect, is an American after the election(not just another corrupt politician) like the average politican today.
    I think John is a nice old guy but should basically change his name to John Mc Bush. I can vote OBAMA for change or for the same basic crap.

    this is an example of another article that promotes christianity in America with the sole purpose of exporting to non-christian countries with the propaganda that Obama is somehow a great person because he is so much in love with Jesus. THis article is a piece of trash.

  • Posted By: ruha @ 07/13/2008 2:46:31 PM

    Mr.obama is intelligent that means he has to think ,question, and be able to dismantle any thing which he was told or taught and build his own thought process based on scientific findings.no organised religion specially islam or pauline christianinty or prophatic judaism can allow that ,because each thinks they are it ,the final revevlation ,unchangable unquestionable,unaaltered or unalterbla utterings of all mighty all

    Wake Up People - Start Praying that ANYONE BUT OBAMA wins!!

    ANYONE CAN SAY ANYTHING...POLITICIANS NORMALLY DO , JUST TO GET ELECTED,,,,BUT....WE 'VE GOT LIKE 3MONTHS, DONTCHA THINK IT WOULD BE WISE TO PRAY FOR THOSE RUNNING THAT THE LORD WILL CHANGE THEM FROM WITHIN AND SPEAK TO THEIR HEARTS ON THE THINGS THEY CONCONE. ABORTION IS NOT OF GOD,CONDONING AUDULTERY IS NOT OF GOD, CONDONING HOMOSEXUALITY IS NOT OF GOD(I DID NOT WRITE THE BIBLE) I READ AND STUDY AND TRY TO OBEY WHAT IT SAYS. LYING IS NOT OF GOD,STEALING.IDOLATRY,SEXUAL IMMORALITY....IT GOES ON. THE POINT IS , I BELIEVE IN PRAYER AND IF YOU BELIEVE IN PRAYER AND IN WHAT YOU ARE PRAYING FOR THAT IT WILL BE DONE, THEN IT WILL BE DONE. JAMES 2 . PRAY WITH NO DOUBT.
    PRAY FOR MCCAIN PRAY FOR OBAMA THAT THEIR VIEWS ARE RIGHT AND JUST, NOT OF THIS WORLD, WHICH BELONGS TO SATAN. GODS PEOPLE ARE NOT OF THIS WORLD. WE MUST LIVE IN IT, AND PRAY FOR ITS PEOPLE. DO U NOT THINK THAT GOD CAN ANSWER IN A MOMENT AND HERE WE HAVE 3 MONTHS TIL ELECTION.
    WOULD YOU ALL BE BAFFLED IF HUCKABEE WOULD COME OUT PRESIDENT OR RON PAUL..
    TALK ABOUT THE HAND OF GOD....WHO'S IN CONTROL,,,YEP THAT'D BE HIM,,GOD
    A CHANGE OF MIND AND OF HEART. FOR OUR LEADERS AND ITS PEOPLE.
    IF MY PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME, WILL HUMBLE THEMSELVES..AND PRAY AND SEEK MY FACE AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, THEN I WILL HEAR FROM HEAVEN AND WILL FORGIVE THEIR SIN AND WILL HEAL THEIR LAND....2 CHRONICLES7:14
    JESUS IS COMING PEOPLE..REAL SOON...WHATS THAT ABOUT THAT PEACE TREATY BEING SIGNED!!!!!
