Oh - and getting back to what's truly important -- McCain doesn't have a clue about economics -- because he's been a "Kept Man" ever since he cheated on his first wife and left his family for a very, very rich beer heiress. And who does he get economic advice from? Phil Gramm (linked to Enron and mortgage crisis.) Phil Gramm just told us (the average American) we were a bunch of whiners. So you tell me - who's closer to God?

McCain doesn't go to church and was cheating on his wife when he met a much younger heiress whom he started an affair with - the night he met her. Obama didn't leave his family for a much younger woman, has a relationship with God and cares about the average American -- so you tell me--

My question is: Why did Barrack Obama pick the Reverend Wright's church? There was more thought behind is choice beyond it is the local church and it is right don the street. Mr. Obama has not been very truthful in his answers regarding this subject. Obama says he different, but what I have seen the last couple of months is politician that dodges direct questions and is the same stuff we have been getting for years. I just can't put my faith in Mr. Obama.

holyrollingpin we have asked you to get on your hands and knees and pray for forgiveness from the Muslim community. We will ask again that you do that because you don't seem to get the picture except through your distorted view of the world
Obama is not Muslim, nor would I want him to be one because he is Christian. Do you know how to say that rolling pin? I guess not, because you are in the health care industry, perhaps you pop stuff to keep you going 24/7. So our advice to you is to check into rehab, deal with your Islamaphobia, see your psychiatrist, have him or her prescribe you some Xanax, and you will feel better. Perhaps you need your bottle or a hug and kiss from us. Well six of us are passing our hugs and kisses to you because your brain has a big boo boo. We feel sorry for such a damaged person, you, crackhead canadian and voteno should all join in a love fest in Woodstock. Perhaps you will go back to the 60's and feel so much better. There you go, now your back there, breathe a few more puff the magic dragons, and live happily ever after. I would personally suggest stronger meds, but this will do for the moment.

well i think this obama character seems kinda two-faced. he says one thing and when people criticize him for it, he says "Oh thats not what i meant. what i meant was ..." and then he'll say the opposite. to paraphrase john mccain, "thie election is about trust, and you can't trust obama"

I appreciate Obama's openness on his faith. Its refreshing to see a candidate admit that "his redemption comes through (the sacrificial death and bodily resurrection of) Christ." However, Christianity is not supposed to be "compatible" with other faiths. You can't take one part of the faith and not accept others in an effort to be politically correct. The truth is an offense, afterall. Its supposed to be.

I take that back, Nins. It's Saturday night and you might just be drunk and didn't know that you were repeating that thing endlessly, and I make it a point to never tamper with a drunk.

Dear Older,
Yes, I have been repeating a variation of my post about Phil Gramm for about 3 days now. My reason for that is because it is important, and I want to make sure that lots of people see it. In case you haven't noticed, Gramm has been in the news a lot in the past few days, and I assume that this has raised people's awareness about him and makes it a good time for me to post my blogs about him. Otherwise, people wouldn't really know who I was talking about.
Furthermore, we are in for a round of heavy weather next week. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are both failing, and Indy Mac has already been forcibly taken over by the Feds, who were concerned that Indy's Mac's value had fallen so low below the amount needed for it's FDIC insured deposits, that the Federal Reserve seized it's assets. This is SERIOUS. Including Bear Sterns, that makes four banking houses to fail so far, just in America. There have been a couple in Europe also. Have you ever heard of the domino theory?
Hold on to your hat, OlderWiser. Your retirement investments might not be worth much more than toilet paper in a few months. And if that happens, I want to make sure that your know to blame Phil Gramm. And I have nothing against John McCain, I just think that his alliance with Gramm was, in my view, the very worst thing he could have done.
Sorry if this bothers you. Probably my target audience doesn't include you, ideologically speaking. However, as an American with a bank account, you really do deserve to know what is going on.
Incidentally, although I do enjoy a glass of beer or wine now and then, i haven't been well and truly drunk since college. I didn't really even like it then. Great stuff in small doses, but nasty if you take too much.-

Hey, Roller, why is that you call everyone who you disagree with a Muslim, as if "Muslim" was some kind of heinous epithet?
Me, personally, I am not a Muslim, but if I was I would be a good one. I am sure that there are many wonderful Muslims, loving and giving and aligning themselves with God. The world contains all kinds of people, and I think it is a shame that you are hung up on believing that only white, Christian, narrow-minded heterosexuals should be allowed to live. It must really hurt to be you, so full of anger and hatred, so threatened by anyone who is different than you.
May God bless you and bring you into the true awareness of Christ, into that place where you love your neighbor as yourself.-

Enter Your Comment Well, Nins, thank you for being concerned about my retirement assets. I have kept a close eye on the fall of the dollar, brought down of course by our own government's efforts to postpone the inevitable crash of things dollarwise, marketwise, and most of all politicswise, the last one being the real problem that leads to all of the others. It is my hope that the plan I have settled on has a broad enough base in other currencies to offset our own folly, but there is never a guarantee in such matters as you well know. If this eases your concern for my economic welfare, then all is well. In a humorous aside, I like the toilet paper analogy to our dollar, which reminds me of the comics of old who lit their cigars with hundred dollar bills in a fit of euphoria over sudden and unexpected wealth. Your Gramm blog is superior. The post itself is not the complaint that I reluctantly made. It was that we enter these to try to focus on the article at hand and when repetitive irrelevance is injected a little too often, it begins to resemble Holy Roller's neurotic and repetitive ramblings as he does what he thinks is right for all of us, too. I simply felt that the high quality of your very well researched and intelligent posts might be somewhat diluted by frequent and irrelevant placement in other blogs where we might like to stay a little more on that subject and not be distracted. You have, as always, my abject apology for any unintended offense that I might have caused. Mea culpa. Mea maxima culpa. I, too, enjoy a moderate sip here and there and suspect that we could enjoy some really stimulating conversation if such were possible, but, sadly, we stay impersonal and anonymous in these blogs, one of their few disadvantages. Salutæ.

Your "Semi-Senile Mesiah" Mundane John McCain is in No Position to claim himself a "Christian"
John McCain: A Man that attended, or so he claims, to have attended a Arizona baptist Church, for the Past 20 years, yet REFUSES to be BAPTIZED !!!
John McCain: This same Senator John McCain, is NOT RTECOGNIZED as a Member of this Arz. Baptist Church, based on his REUSAL to being BAPTIZED.
John McCain: This same senator who says he was Christened as a Child and that his Decision to being Baptized is a "Personal Matter"
The Arizona Baptist Church REFUSES to LIST MCCAIN as a MEMBER of it's Church as well as say he's a "BAPTIST CHRISTIAN" ecause of his REFUSAL TO BEING BAPTIZED....
Obama has been Baptized and claim Jesus asa his Lord and Savior...
I'd love to see a Random Question asked by one of his Town Hall Set Ups, to ask John McCain to Profess with his Tongue, that Jesus is His Lord and savior....
He'd Sh!t in his Pants, after Saying, Its a "Personal Matter"
So Much for Damian, I mean Mundane John McCain !!!

How can Richard Wolffe and Lisa Miller know the "truth" about Obama's religion? Are they psychics? Wolffe is a regular face on Countdown and his professional association with the self annoited propagandist and rabble rouser Olbermann is a huge clue to the bias content of this article. MSNBC has ceased to be a new organization and has become the voice of the left and Obama's transmit antenna. It is no wonder the ratings have tanked.

Sunday, July 13, 2008
For the second straight day, the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll shows that the race for the White House is tied. Sunday???s numbers show Barack Obama and John McCain each attracting 43% of the vote. When "leaners" are included, the two candidates are tied at 46%. For most of the past month-and-a-half, Obama has led McCain by approximately five percentage points. It will take a few more days to determine whether this recent tightening of the race reflects real change or is merely statistical noise.
NOBAMA!!!

Every Damn 4 Years You Fear Mongers come up with the Anti-Christ Scare Tactic.....
If anyone is the Anti-Christ it is George W. Bush Jr.
Noone has Killed Others in the name of Jesus Christ ...
Noone has Invaded Lands and Justified it, ij the Name of Jesus Christ, Moreso than George W. Bush Jr.
Yet you Lame Brains, are Calling obama the Anti-Christ
The Anti-Christ would Never Enter ANY CHURCH and be Baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ, Moreover Profess to be a Christian !!!
Obama is going to be the next president of the USA...
All you Scared to Death, Race Hate & Religious Hate Mongers had better get use to it.
John Mccain is Not a Christian, He mention his Faith, His Religion, but Never Specifically says he's a Christian.
Ron-ald Wil-Son Rea-Gan The Mark of the Beast "Mr. 666 Himself" when he moved to his New Bel-Air Digs, Nancy Reagan had the Actual Address #666 changed to 668...
After his presidency he and Nancy Davis moved to 666 St. Cloud Road in Bel Air, California which Ronald lived in until his death. Nancy had the address changed from 666 to 668 due to the fact 666 is known as the devil's number. The house is down the street from 805 St. Cloud Road, the house used in the TV show "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" (1990).
If thats not Eerie, I don't know what Eeerie is !!!
George H.W. Bush Sr. was also Considered the "Anti-Christ"
You Every 4 Year Boogey man Seekers are Retarded at best.
PS: By the way, Russia's new President is only (42) Years of age and I'd love to hear You Low Lifes and Mccain deal with that fact.

John (McCain) the Baptist
EXCERPT: In John McCains words:
I was raised in an Episcopal church and attended high school at a high school called Episcopal High School. I have attended North Phoenix Baptist Church for many (15) years. - John McCain-

.Oh, and there were tail words on the end of the 2nd sentence in McCains sentence of his excerpt that did get captured in his full sentence which was:
He continued to say: . And the most important thing is that I'm a Christian.
Sorry about that. Hard to see everything you are highlighting with this itty bitty light gray text we have to put up with in our replies on this site. : - D

Substitute Barack Obama for Nicolae Carpathia and see what we may all be in for. The similarities are too erie. I don't think Obama really has any religious beliefs other than his quest for power. Maybe he really is the Antichrist! think about it.
Nicolae Jetty Carpathia is a fictional character and the primary antagonist in the Left Behind book series written by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins. Carpathia is the leader of a world government known as the Global Community. He is secretly the Antichrist and will one day attempt to marshal Community forces against the followers of Jesus Christ. The number of his name (N - i - c - o - l ... = 14 + 9 + 3 + 14 + 12 + ...) is 216.
Biography
Born in the county of Cluj in Romania, Carpathia's birth is the product of genetic engineering and artificial insemination. His mother, Marilena, is unwittingly convinced by the followers of Satan to become the mother of a child who they assure her will change the face of the world. Marilena stays with her husband, Sorin, until the baby is born, insisting that her "son" keep the strong "Carpathia" name. (In the prequel novels it's explained that the name "Nicolae Carpathia", translated, means "victory of the people".)
Even as a young child, Carpathia showed remarkable intellect and athletic ability, and also proved to be extraordinarily manipulative, able to bend others to his will with relative ease. His handlers arranged for his mother to be eliminated, and Nicolae himself eventually demanded the dispatch of his "father," a key to his rise to power. With his advisers and counselors, Carpathia formed a successful import-export business, which quickly made him a millionaire. However, he quickly grew bored with business and finance and, guided by the "kingmaker" Leon Fortunato, set his sights on politics.
At the age of 24, Carpathia stepped into the political scene as a junior senator in the lower house of the Romanian Parliament. Falling victim to Fortunato's blackmail, the President of Romania soon resigned in favor of Carpathia, with the unanimous support of that country's parliament. Shortly thereafter, in the chaos following the Rapture, Carpathia was appointed United Nations Secretary-General. Throughout his swift rise to global prominence, he feigned humility, saying he wished only to serve and denying that he ever sought power. Carpathia quickly began effecting changes to the U.N., converting it into the Global Community, and appointing himself G.C. Supreme Potentate. Eventually after World War III, he became a dictator, while still portraying himself as a benevolent pacifist. Copied from http://nicolae_carpathia.totallyexplained.com/.-
