Re: Next January

No Offense - but, when and where have you experienced that any politician has done the will of ALL the people? The real part the folks like us play - is electing these people over and over again. Once entrenched - so many of them do as they see fit - they owe it the lobbyists.

Please explain why you think you or me or any of us can control a (if Obama wins) fillabuster proof regime?

Re: Survey says! Wrong

No offense is intended - I don't believe you are in a position, nor is the catholic church or anyone else in this world in a position to "judge" republicans or democrats or any person.

My upbringing was also Catholic and I was never taught that I could "judge" anyone's beliefs - regardless of their race, color or creed. That priviledge belongs to God alone!

Thank you.

Re: Survey says! Wrong

If the GOP message is at odds with the teachings of Jesus Christ, please explain how killing babies is not? Obama has and will continue to vote to kill babies under the guise of choice. The devil is a liar, he is the father of lies. He comes to steal, kill, and destroy. He comes disguised as an angel of light. As I always tell my congregation two things when reading the Scripture. Do not read just one verse, read before and after. Second, context, context, context. Single verses are usually taken out of context. I was raised a Catholic, went to Catholic school, but that did not make me a Christian. Only a submitted relationship with Jesus Christ will do that. Pray and listen to God before you vote. 2 Chronicles 7:14 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 forgive thier sin and heal their land. God Bless America

Re: Survey says! Wrong

Well, there we have it. "Standardized" church doctrine with each person speaking the word of God. Each choosing to force their view of religion on the other person. Did you ever wonder how long after taking communion the abortion clinic bombers plant their bombs? The next time you shake your head in disbelief as the "Allah Akbar" crowd imposes their religious views on innocent "infidels", just remember this thread.

Re: Survey says! Wrong

Why is it that he only time people on the left want religion in the public discourse is when they want to take your money in taxes and give it to someone else quoting Jesus in the process?

Re: Survey says! Wrong

The Abortion Clinic Bombing argument brought up for the 2000th time?

Difference is that extremists whether religious or not, don't represent their relgion or anyone but themselves.

Christians have spoke out against abortion clinic bombings. The whole purpose of being against abortion is to be FOR the sanctity of Human Life and that is a well known belief that obviously doesn't dove tail with abortion clinic bombings or any bombings.

There's no moral equivalency with Christianity and Islamic extremists when there are overwhelmingly a larger amount of extremist islamics with C.A.I.R. organization refusing to acknowledge what a terrorist organization is (Hamas, Hezzbollah).

Plus there are countless public schools throughout the world telling their students that killing innocent people because they are JEWS is perfectly ok. I don't know any public Christian school in America telling students that bombing clincis is ok.

Re: Survey says! Wrong

Well “Technical Editor”, if you don’t want to hear about the abortion clinic bombers sitting in the pew next to you then you definitely don’t want to hear about the pedophile predators standing at the alter in front of you. Nonetheless, it is your support that spirits them out of town just a step ahead of the law lest they embarrass your particular brand of “the true religion”.

Re: Survey says! Wrong

I don't see where you get the idea that Obama is somehow in favor of killing babies. Nobody likes abortion, including Obama. All Obama has done is go on record as saying he supports leaving alone Roe v. Wade that we've had for 40 years now. In other words, the mother is free to choose life if she is so inclined. If you were truly "conservative" you would be for keeping the government out of the decision, just like true conservatives are in favor of keeping the government's hands off our guns. The "pro-life" movement is also contrary to conservative opposition to welfare, since unwanted pregnancies that frequently end up with unloved, abused children on welfare. It seems that the Republicans care deeply about children from conception until birth.

Re: Who am I voting for

That makes two of us...sad thing is, the polls seem to show that Americans are tired of the Republican Party and want "Change." What utter nonsense, every politician says that, and like Ron Paul said, it is just a word--it does not mean anything. Candidates never show, they just tell and Obama is VERY good at telling!

Re: Who am I voting for

Program Analyst has a point, Obama can run his mouth all he wants but what's he ever DONE?

Re: Who am I voting for

This election may very well come down to voting "Against" Obama and what he really stands for rather than voting "For" McCain. I don't know what has been going on in the last two weeks, but there have been a lot of Obama supporters throwing the guy under the bus. Biden with his tax cuts for $150,00o or less. Clinton saying he had to run to his advisers to include him when the financial crisis hit. Barney Frank stating that there are a lot of rich people to tax and we want to cut Defense by 25%. Today, Bill Richardson lowered "middle class" to $120,000. With Friends like these helping his election, I would lock them all in closet.

Re: the future President...John McCain

Not necessarily. If you stand in front of an on-coming train, you have essentially MADE your time be up, hence McPain in this election!

Re: the future President...John McCain

If polls simply vote on emotions,we are heading for a disaster. Electing unqualified people simply because you are angry with the bush administration will drastically weaken this country. If you think 9/11 was bad, you haven't seen anything yet. It's important that the voter challenges the candidate who is best qualified for the job to be prepared-rather than unprepared where chaos follows-like happend on 9/11. I believe the Republican candidates are best qualified for this job.
