So Newsweek put a photograph of President Obama on the cover of their magazine. He has his narcissist head held high and an arrogant pious look on his smug face and a sacrilegious halo displaying the homosexual rainbow above his head. The caption reads: “America’s First Gay President“.
As predicted and calculated by the Obama machine, the homosexual lobby delivered on their end and within minutes of his announcement endorsing gay marriage, millions of dollars in donations began pouring in, and hard core homosexual election workers began signing up in large numbers. Not to be outdone the liberal press immediately began pouring out support with favorable stories like Newsweek’s, and polls are still being cranked out that indicate 51% of our populace supports this movement. Obama is being hailed as a courageous civil rights worker correcting a wrong with a right.
I literally felt sick to my stomach when I saw the cover of that magazine and began to see the carefully orchestrated media plan unfolding as it begins to accomplish its purpose of spinning this issue in his favor. As you recall this comes right on the heels of his move to secure another special interest group, the women’s vote, with his decision to force religious organizations whose doctrine opposes birth control and morning after abortive pills to provide free insurance to pay for it. Make no mistake, his is an all out war on morality and organized religion and if the followers of Christ don’t wake up and go to work, we will lose our country.
So you think I’m paranoid? Prayer has been removed from schools; references to God cannot be made at a football game or locker room; the military cannot mention Jesus Christ at a military funeral, (even if the deceased was a Christian); we are not to say Merry Christmas, but Happy Holidays; no more Christmas trees but Holiday trees; children cannot be spanked; 40 million abortions and counting; Don’t ask – Don’t tell abolished; need I go on?
His Chicago based political machine has received hundreds of millions of dollars in donations; however he has already spent a significant amount of it. His attack ads on Romney have just begun, and I could not fully understand where the money was going until just recently when I spoke with someone who is a first-hand witness to it in the small rural Florida County in which he lives.
My buddy told me that the Obama people have launched a voter registration drive that is unsurpassed in its professionalism in his small backwoods county and they have at their disposal a very sophisticated database that will track absentee ballots and identify those who have returned them and those who have not, in order that they may be called and reminded to get out and vote, or if they don’t have transportation in some cases actually picked up and driven to the voting headquarters. Their goal is to register as many as possible and make sure they vote early via absentee ballot. Obama cannot win without Florida and they are leaving no stone unturned in their uber-professional bid to win it.
In my friend’s county they are concentrating on registering black voters with a team of paid surrogates that are literally going house to house. In the last election blacks voted in a block and Obama got 90% of that vote. Oddly African Americans are the most opposed to gay marriage; however all indications are that they still intend to support him no matter their religious beliefs. That is a sad commentary on their belief system.
My wife told me she wanted to get out and work this election. She doesn’t care what work needs to be done; she wants to do her part to defeat this guy. She is willing to answer phones, stuff envelopes, put up signs, go door to door, and do whatever is needed. So she goes online and searches for the closest Republican Party headquarters to sign up. Even though she is fairly adept at using Google, and uses it every day, she was unsuccessful.
This is alarming to me, because a simple search on the Democratic side instantly popped up a well organized list of ways one could volunteer. What is up with that? It seems to me that this base would be covered, but when I look at the Republican Primary and the mega efforts of the ultra conservatives who have spent their time and money lambasting Romney for being too moderate, it’s easy to understand how the focus was lost on defeating Obama, but concentrated on beating each other up. Heck we are too busy fighting among ourselves and they are laughing at us all of the way to the voting booth.
Tarnation! Don’t we get it? We are going to lose this battle. More religious freedom is going to be taken away. Our children and grandchildren are not going to have a chance. Geez are the silent majority going to stay silent forever? Is there a silent majority? Maybe they are too silent to answer that question; more likely too complacent or lazy.
My wife and I have each given the maximum to Romney’s campaign and have also donated to a Republican Super Pac. We have given until it hurts! We are now trying to find ways to host fundraisers at Honey Lake, put up signs whatever.
I wonder how many of the folks reading this column feel the same urgency. I’ve read and studied the end times and how the antichrist will come to rule for years. I don’t think Obama is THE antichrist, but he is definitely an antichrist in that he works diligently to undermine biblical teachings and profess what is wrong to be right and right to be wrong. He is a precursor to the real deal. On top of that he is destroying the country economically in an effort to turn it into a socialist state.
I’m afraid we are outmanned and undergunned. We are going to lose this election if a vast army of fed up Christian workers do not wake up and get going. I urge you to do so and convince everyone that you know to do likewise.
The Bible teaches in Philippians 4:13, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”. This means that we have to do our part. Our part consists of more than merely praying for God to deliver us; (“I” can do all things). Before you write me a snotty indignant letter, I’m not advocating not praying, we should definitely pray for strength and a favorable outcome, but we should also get off our duffs and go to work.
In my business career God never once just came and laid my reward on my doorstep. I was the first to arrive and the last to leave work and I left no stone unturned myself and worked my butt off. Luck had nothing to do with success; the harder I worked the luckier I became. We cannot beat this attack on our belief system back by yawning and shaking our head or sitting in an easy chair stewing about it.
The other side has sophisticated marketing capabilities, money coming out their ears, ingenious computer software programs, well organized campaigns, and workers willing to slog through the streets. It appears overwhelming but nonetheless we can win this battle through prayer and hard work. I hope you will do something beginning today. Time is running out. Find a way to volunteer today, even if it is difficult…
