So if the Big O gets elected, are you going to recognize that that is god's will? If so, then I assume you will get behind the new president because you are seeing god's handiwork in action. Right?

Jesus really is our only HOPE!!

My landscaper is our only hope?
Oh you mean that other Jesus? Sorry dearie, he isn't on the ballot. Not American apparently.
BTW just a rumor but I have heard it said that that Jesus guy? A socialist!
And a drinker! Always with the wine in the bible.
Also I hear that he was openly gay. Only hung out with a bunch of guys and it says in a couple of places in the bible that Jesus rode asses.
Not only that, he was a jew! And I hear he had this idea that the Jews were gods chosen people!
But semi seriously heres something to think about Kathy. Barack Obama is probably used to people spreading dishonest rumors about him by now. And he would probably even forgive you for it, cos he is a nice guy and a christian.
Your god and Jesus however are rather stricter when it comes to lies. Dont you think you owe it to your eternal soul to make sure these things are true before you spread them around?

One very curious feature of american politics, as I see it discussed on this forum, is what appears to be serious concern that the nation might elect someone who is in some sense "anti- american". This is not something I have ever seen in the uk and I wonder where it comes from? I am sorry if I am misunderstanding what this is about but it has been bothering me for some little time and I would welcome some explanation of it.

Perhaps this is off-topic, though it seems directly related to the OP to me. If folk think it needs a separate thread then feel free to say so.

Questioning patriotism of candidates (or fellow citizens) has a long and slimy history in American politics. It's probably part of our polyglot nature that advisors feel if they can paint the opponent as "the other". Some of our darkest hours happened during the HUAC period. Since the 1960s, it's been less systematic and more of a talking point/slimy tactic.

A classic example is Jeanne Kirkpatrick's "blame America first" crowd comments.

... What? No, no, no, silly billy! Did you miss the "Communist Atheist Muslim Homosexual African armies" part?

See they don't kill you. They give you a little red book making you non American, laugh at your bibles making you pray but, they then replace all of your crosses with crescent moons making Jesus mad at you, put a bunch of skittles in your house to make you taste the rainbow which cause you to let down your guard, and just as you snap back to finish your prayer they teach you the lyrics to some Ladysmith Black Mambazo songs causing you to end the prayer in "Auuummm bop bop" and THAT takes your soul.

(my bold)

As a South African I am shocked I tell you, shocked, to hear you besmirch the name of that wonderful band. :p
 
ou also learn the candidate was proctored into an elite Eastern private university by a middle eastern Muslim.

I love this one. When G.W. Bush goes to Harvard, he remains the kind of guy you'd want to have a beer with. When B. Obama goes to Harvard, he becomes an intellectual from an elite Eastern university. Tell me, Kathy, when did going to school become a negative?


. . . . . . .

KK, do you want to know why are so many people voting for him? To fulfill prophesy, simply to fulfill prophesy!

That means "is not the same as".

(I don't mean to be patronizing, but when you have as many incorrect preconceived notions as Kathy there, it's best not to use technical symbolism.)

Kathy, your email is misinformed. Some of the items are exaggerated or spun specifically to make Obama sound bad. Other items have no basis in reality whatsoever.

This close to the election, it is your duty as an American voter to be an informed voter. Take the time to learn what is true and what is not about each candidate. This board is a fairly good resource, but there are other, impartial, sites you cna look to as well.
 
Incidentally, kathy, I'm Jewish. As you probably are aware, Jews and Muslims don't exactly have a great relationship these days.

So I want you to take it to heart when I tell you that I find your anti-Muslim bigotry to be just as unacceptable and despicable as anti-Semitism.

It's incredibly revolting. In every way.

I disagree with Colin Powell's endorsement of Barack Obama; however, he had an excellent point to make, and I want you to think about it:

I’m also troubled by, not what Senator McCain says, but what members of the party say. And it is permitted to be said such things as, “Well, you know that Mr. Obama is a Muslim.” Well, the correct answer is, he is not a Muslim, he’s a Christian. He’s always been a Christian. But the really right answer is, what if he is? Is there something wrong with being a Muslim in this country? The answer’s no, that’s not America. Is there something wrong with some seven-year-old Muslim American kid believing that he or she could be president? Yet I have heard senior members of my own party drop the suggestion, “He’s a Muslim and he might be associated terrorists.” This is not the way we should be doing it in America.

"Is there something wrong with being a Muslim in this country? The answer’s no, that’s not America."

That's all it comes down to, kathy. That's not America.

Signed,

she's not going to listen to you, you killed her Christ.:rolleyes:

Btw, That Colin Powell paragraph is probably the most wonderful and inspirational thing I've read in...well...forever.
 
You know, KK says that 'Jesus is our only hope', as if McCain and the Republican party were mandated by God. Which is strange since neither Jesus nor God (Or any other heavenly beings) are on the presidential ticket.


I've always felt that if Jesus came down from heaven heralded by angels on a shining ath of light, and announced he was running for president... The opposing party would slam him, blast him, spread lies, etc etc. And that includes the Republicans.

Its just politics. The person running doesn't matter. The ticket does.

Oh so you don't even believe that any of these facts that are well documented are true? Boy I guess you are a true hard core skeptic. There is too much evidence to me that this person is not honest or ethical, sorry but I do not want to see someone like this running the USA!

Show the sources kathy, you should be ashamed.

What are the sources?

Thanks for that, US.

So do people seriously believe that there are few ( or a lot) of people who are eligible for political office in the US; interested enough to pursue such office; and intent on actually furthering the interests of some foreign power? I find that beyond odd, if it is true

You know Kathy, there’s a lot of talk about “leaving it all in God’s hands, because he’s got a master plan and anything that happens is his Will”. So then if Obama gets elected, you’d have to concede that it’s God’s plan, right?

So does that mean God endorsed Obama (assuming he wins)? And would you then have to accept that Obama is the right man for the job?

Also, you bring up his 20-year Rev. Wright association a LOT, to demonstrate just how in bed he is with a NAACP-loving, white-hating pastor. And yet, you also question him being a Christian, and believe that he has secret Muslim ties. Well, which is it? He can’t be both a Christian AND a Muslim, can he?

Your mind terrifies me.

Is this not a current event in the news? We certainly should be concerned about a guy like this getting elected as President.

What I want to know with his record how the heck did he even get into congress? You mean us dumb taxpayers have already been paying a guy like this a salary?

Do you mean to say that you actually believe the stuff in a random e-mail is A)true b)completely unambiguous (not open to any possible interpretation except ones stated) and C)has been thoroughly proved/vetted by independant sources?

Actually, if the person who, according to the bibble, was Jeebus, he would have been reasonably cool. But he is definitely not KK's jeebus - her's clearly hates, supports lying and maligning people purely in the interest of pushing a fanatic version of xtianity that the bibble jeebus would have been highly unlikely to have approved!!:jaw-dropp:jaw-dropp:jaw-dropp:jaw-dropp

Actually, unless you have extremely unlikely mental reserves (possible but I doubt it) [and assuming there was such a silly group], they could destroy the functions you think of as a soul - with no need to kill your body.
