Another reason not to vote for the Obamanation

[Brother Temperance]

Think about it: has the radical Islamist candidate, Irack Hussein bin Osama, ever explictly spelt out his position on suicide bombing? Try as I might, I cannot think of a single occasion where he has publicly, unequivocally pledged that, if elected President, he would not blow himself up. To have the nation's president killed in a terrorist attack - perhaps even right in the Oval Office - would be bad enough, but for the Commander-in-Chief to also be the terrorist blowing himself up would make America an international laughingstock. Do we really want every man, woman and child in America to pledge allegiance to this?

It would be the greatest propaganda coup for the terrorists since Janet Jackson exposed herself in an unseemly fashion at the 2004 Superbowl.

Aside from the fact that he's a mudslime and therefore Godless and hellbound, can you imagine what the White House would look like with an Obomba presidency?

*Watermelon rinds and fried chicken bones strewn across the lawn.

*Ungodly "rap" music blaring from ghetto blasters on every windowsill. at all hours.

*A line of customers looking for "ho's" and pimps.

*The Presidential limousine tricked out with purple shag carpeting and gold trim.




I think I'm going to be sick.

Even worse than all that, Pastor Zeke, he would probably put a mu'adhdhin in the Washington Monument!

Re: Another reason not to vote for the Obamanation

Another reason not to vote for Obama is that he smokes. You want him smoking in the oval office or the Lincoln Bedroom? How about a new rule: If the president wants to smoke in the dining room, then it's OK - but only the president, no one else.

What kind of cigarettes do you think he smokes? Maybe those sickeningly sweet blunts that you smell in the tenderloin? Since we already know that he smokes, how do we know that he does not smoke Marijuana day in and day out? He has already admitted to cocaine use, and Marijuana is the gateway drug, so it's almost confirmed.

As much as we're hoping that Obama doesn't get the nomination for Dem, or worse, elected president, it's still possible that he has at least one official position that Christians can get behind (not that position!).

Obama flip-flops on pot


January 31, 2008

By Jen Haberkorn - Barack Obama, the senatorial candidate of 2004, might have a bone to pick with Barack Obama, the presidential candidate of 2008.

Videotapes of debates and speeches that were obtained by The Washington Times show Mr. Obama took positions during his Senate campaign on nearly a half dozen issues, ranging from the Cuba embargo to health care for illegal immigrants, that conflict with statements he has made during his run for the White House.

For instance, in MSNBC's Oct. 30 presidential debate, Mr. Obama hesitantly raised his hand and joined with most of his Democratic rivals to declare that he opposed decriminalizing marijuana.

But as a U.S. Senate candidate, Mr. Obama told Illinois college students in January 2004 that he supported eliminating criminal penalties for marijuana use or possession, a debate video shows.

"I think we need to rethink and decriminalize our marijuana laws," Mr. Obama said during a debate at Northwestern University. "But I'm not somebody who believes in legalization of marijuana." (See clip below.)

When confronted with the statements on the video, Obama's campaign offered two explanations to the Times in less than 24 hours. At first, Obama spokesman Tommy Vietor said that the candidate had "always" supported decriminalizing marijuana, suggesting his 2004 statement was correct. Then after the Times posted copies of the video on its Web site today, his campaign reversed course and declared he does not support eliminating criminal penalties for marijuana possession and use.

"If you're convicted of a crime, you should be punished, but that we are sending far too many first-time, non-violent drug users to prison for very long periods of time, and that we should rethink those laws," Vietor said. The spokesman blamed confusion over the meaning of decriminalization for the conflicting answers.

Obama's chief rival in the Democratic primary, Sen. Hillary Clinton, does not support decriminalizing marijuana. Neither does Sen. John McCain nor former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney on the GOP side. Rep. Ron Paul, a Texas Republican, does.

Mr. Obama's differing answers on marijuana are among five conflicts between positions he took while running for Senate in 2004 and those he now articulates while running for president, a review of debate tapes shows. Experts said the likely reason for the changes was that Obama ran as a liberal during his Senate run but has become more centrist as he pursues the broad coalition required to win the White House.

"This is mostly evolutionary thinking," said John Jackson, a visiting professor of political science at the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute at Southern Illinois University who has written extensively on Mr. Obama's 2004 campaign. "It's not a clear 'flip-flop' kind of change, but inevitably, when someone is running for a different position, four years later, there is likely to be some change or some emphasis that gets placed differently."

I've hear that Obomba be Ladin's mother is an ATHEIST! Do we want the MOTHER of the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA to be a God hating ATHEIST? That's all this country needs to Christopher Hitchens spilling booze all over the Lincoln bedroom. America is not ready for that!
