Why Is Mr Obama In The President's Office?

[Armoured]

Well, IMO, those who aren't happy here can go live in those countries they consider better.

I'm happy with Capitalism and I didn't want his "fundamental change".

And I don't have any money.

Democracy. Apparently most people liked the idea of changing things, or they wouldn't have elected him. In no way wishing to be unkind, but by your 'if you don't like it, leave' theory, I think you're the one who should be expected to leave, rather than everybody else.

 

[Lollerskates]

Could it be that God decided to stop fooling around and He is about to lower the boom?
What happened in the several cities around Soddom?
He decided to confound the languages.
(my chronology is off) He gave the flood (I like kent Hovind's theory on how He restarted with the eight)
Then there was the series of "spirals of wickedness" where He allowed the people to be ..."spanked" so He could bring them back out of bondage.

But why are people calling him Mr. Obama? I mean, on TV and radio ffs!

His title is either Mr. President, or President Obama. Mr. Obama is the name of a CEO of a corporation (oh wait...)

Last I checked we are not a Democracy. True he was elected, but primarily made possible by convincing enough people that his ideas represented what was best for them. I live in area where most people proudly supported him twice, but even so we no longer see the various Obama stickers as frequently as was common here during the early part of his presidency. So am thinknig at least some of those people who helped elect him twice are now beginning to realize the promises that apparently moved them to vote that way were empty and the change he spoke of is not good for them or their neighbors or their country.

 

[revanneosl]

Though Pres. Obama's administration has not proved to be as progressive as I was hoping, I am still glad that I voted for him twice, since I still believe that his leadership is far superior to what we would have received from either Senator McCain or Mr. Romney.

I never supported him. But even I accept that the majority did, because they DID like the sound of his ideas and policies, and that its unreasonable to pull the ol' 'if you don't like it, leave' when he has majority support.

Its very possible he doesn't have majority support any more. We'll know for sure at the next election.

So because Obama holds a different political view than you, Christ is coming back?

 

[Hetta]

Yes! and we have Obama to thank for that. The world has lost respect for our country since Obama has bowed to the muslim countries.. Oboma is a muslim at heart.

This silly nonsense about him being a Muslim, oh my word. *SMH*

The poor standing of the US long predates Obama's presidency.

 

[Hetta]

Jesus told us these things. Was He obsessed and all doom and gloom? Apparently, your Bible doesn't contain prophecy either?

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?

For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline

He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding

This is all in my Bible.

That is such a typical Republican attitude. No, we shouldn't fix what is wrong with this country, people who think we need change should just leave. LOL.

You should get a job - you'd have money then.

Were you so "anal" about appropriate titles when George W. Bush was POTUS?

YA THINK! Maybe you can name us a US President that wasn't elected that way? Oh yeah. Baby Bush. The majority voted for Al Gore but Baby Bush won in the Electoral College.

So am thinknig at least some of those people who helped elect him twice are now beginning to realize the promises that apparently moved them to vote that way were empty and the change he spoke of is not good for them or their neighbors or their country.

I voted for him twice and I am not happy with him as well, but I'd still vote for him again if he were running against any of the guys he has already beaten or most of what the GOP can put out there to run against him.

Obama has been a weak President in many ways but it hasn't helped that he has had weak Democrats in Congress, including Harry Reid and Pelosi.

God commanded us not to kill. Have you seen an abortion? Have you seen an infant's arms sucked off and then his legs and his head separated from his body while his body is sucked up and then his head is crushed and sucked out of the woman's womb. And we call Islamists barbaric! There is a video by the creator of NARAL who finally realized the heinous crime he was committing against the unborn and became pro-life. It shows the baby (20 wks) sucking his thumb and then trying desperately to get away before the attack begins.

This is not a simple matter of a disagreement of opinion. It is a Commandment of God.

hi psalm,

Oh, where to begin. Absolutely! Abortion is a terrible waste of human life. I get that and I understand and I agree with all of that. What I'm having a hard time understanding is how we attach the blame for that to President Obama.

Here let me lay out some facts for you:

55,772,015 Abortions in America Since Roe vs. Wade in 1973 | LifeNews.com

Since Roe v. Wade there have been some estimated 55 million abortions. How in the world do we hold the man who is President now with the guilt of all that? Remember that our government is established on the grounds that basically the majority rules. If you take a national poll you will find that the majority of Americans agree with abortions being legal. They may not like what abortion does in taking a life, but neither are they willing to make a criminal of the one who gets one.

Here's that proof:

Abortion

Notice that in the first poll the legal in all cases outweigh the illegal in all cases and the legal in most cases outweigh the illegal in most cases. Now, if our nation is really based on the greater number rule, then there really isn't any question that abortion should be legal in the US.

The CBS poll runs tighter variances between 'generally allowable' and 'allowable under more strict guidelines'. The question then becomes what are the 'more strict guidelines'? That abortion shouldn't be allowed after 24 weeks into a pregnancy? Well, that doesn't change the moral issue of abortion but just means that people are more willing to call it quits at the point where they may think the fetus is viable or the mother's life might be more in danger due to the procedure. Maybe the stricter guidelines are more like, "well, it has to be a rape or the mother's life is in danger if the pregnancy proceeds." It could be either and I'm sure of those who voted for this measure that there were some of both in that set.

However, as you peruse this data, if you choose to do so, you will see that the 'always illegal' group is also always small. How would one expect that the small minority is going to rule in this nation and what it deems legal and illegal?

God bless you.
In Christ, Ted

I was not suggesting the process that was done in electing Obama was abnormal. Am suggesting he lied A LOT to those who voted for him with the intent of having those lies convince them to give them his support.

I agree many of them are weak, including Republicans and most concerned primarily with retaining the power of the position, not in doing what they were elected to do or in necessarily doing what is right for anyone but them.

 

[Psalm 91]

Democracy. Apparently most people liked the idea of changing things, or they wouldn't have elected him. In no way wishing to be unkind, but by your 'if you don't like it, leave' theory, I think you're the one who should be expected to leave, rather than everybody else.

I'm not the one who voted for "fundamental change". I liked my country the way it was. And it's not "everybody else". The reason why he won this time is first, because the election was unfair. But no one is saying a word because he is African American and they'll be called racists. The second reason is because 60% of Evangelicals voted for Obama, against Scripture which states, "Thou shalt not kill" and they voted for a man who is in favor of infanticide. But mostly, the election was a done deal before it even happened. I was almost cheated. If I hadn't paid attention, my ballot would have been blank for the president because my vote disappeared while I was voting for minor offices. Who knows what would have happened if I'd printed it without looking. It might have changed to Obama, Biden. When I reported it, the person was real nonchalant about it and said, "Oh, just vote again." There could have been something wrong with that machine, but they didn't care. There is a computer program, everyone. Hello. I understand that the computer was only used in early voting? Not sure about that. But I might as well stay home in the future because it is not up to us who the president will be. I will state for the third time: Whole counties had not one vote for Romney. That is an impossibility. Even tv anchors were questioning the possibility of fraud on election night but because they didn't want to be called racists, nothing more was said.

I love my country but I don't like what it has become, especially since the people voted for that man. He is in favor of infanticide and that is evil. This country will be punished for it's immorality and it's celebration of immorality. One of these days we will all be given the opportunity to sit down and reflect on what we once had, just like civilizations before us. We think we are better, more civilized, more educated. God is no respecter of persons. We will get the same. Maybe it will be massive natural disasters which destroy us or it may just be having to live with the communism many voted for.

 

[Ludicrus]

So many miss the point...
This is ordained of God.
All the ruined economy, destruction of our military, homosexual marriagges, taking our rights away to serve God as we please, Priests not allowed to serve God from their pulpits in the military etc. etc.

This generation shall not pass until all be fulfilled.
The beginning of sorrows.

It is also ordained by God that the Antichrist rise up and war with the saints, and kill some.

And I'm sorry, I will not accept the Antichrist. I will not respect the Antichrist. I will not obey the Antichrist.

Nor will I proffer any of the above to someone who pretty much acts as if he could become a dictator if nobody stood up to him.

Especially someone who hates our country and the Constitution of the United States of America which was founded on Biblical principles. Especially someone who goes and speaks at a Christian university and refuses to speak until all Christian symbols are removed.

And especially for someone who quietly arranged behind the scenes with John Kerry to divide the land of Israel.

You can search WND for that bit of news.

President Obama is in place because God put him there. (Romans 13)

We are to respect all authority, pray for those in authority, obey those in authority, unless they tell us to deny God.

Where do you read in scripture where the apostles spoke against the governing authority, or faught against? They only disobeyed when told not to evangelize.

Christians today who do such a thing against President Obama are in sin.

 

[Psalm 91]

Once again, you need to acknowledge the possibility that maybe the end ISN'T imminent. Remember our previous discussion? People have been predicting the end of the world, and saying the signs are 'obvious' for thousands of years. They've all been wrong, and with an unbroken track record like that, its probably more sensible to think of anyone claiming 'the end is nigh' as a Harold Camping than a Noah.



No matter how much we dislike Obama, I REALLY doubt he's the ant-Christ, or even particularly contributing to any sort of end time acceleration.

No one has said anything about the antichrist. I remember the discussion but you refuse to read posts that disagree with yours so I'm not going to repeat the mistake.

 

[Psalm 91]

Does your Bible include, "Thou shalt not kill"? Pulling little body parts off of an infant while it is alive and able to feel pain is more cruel than Muslims beheading people. Obama is all in favor of it. And if older babies who survive failed abortions are born alive, he wants them killed.

 

[Psalm 91]

President Obama is in place because God put him there. (Romans 13)

We are to respect all authority, pray for those in authority, obey those in authority, unless they tell us to deny God.

That is your opinion. I do not have to respect a man who is in favor of killing infants and who is in favor of killing infants if they survive an abortion. Did John the Baptist respect Herod Antipas when he married his brother's wife? No. And his reminding Herod and his wife about it constantly is what got him beheaded. He did the right thing, he warned Herod. We are not supposed to stand back and deny what God has said about killing, about lying. That verse means that we are to treat the person with respect. If I had to meet Obama, I'd tell him that what he did to the Born Alive Infant Protection Act was wrong and that he needs to repent before God. I'd tell him about what God's Word says about homosexuality too. But I'd say it in a kind way. I do have some self control. The Bible tells us to do that too. I'm sure he'd gather from our conversation that I strongly disagree with him and I have that right.
